The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 740

Caspian also felt aroused when he heard Willow say that. However, that feeling soon disappeared. He had just been dismissed as the God of War, and there was also the precarious situation with the king's residence.

"Willow, I've just been removed from my post. And His Majesty is also currently surrounded by people who don't have his best interests at heart. I just…"

"I know you've been feeling down, but this is my way of getting you to relax." Willow grinned.

"I'm worried that Jerry will make a move on me," Caspian said, worried.

"But you're no longer involved with the military. Why would Jerry do anything to you?" Willow asked, confused.

"Jerry has always considered me an eyesore. Now is the perfect time for him to strike since I no longer have any soldiers by my side."

"But…" Willow still didn't seem to get Caspian's words.

"I may have been stripped of my position, but I'm still a threat to Jerry. I used to be a Diatoranian God of War, after all. If I wave a hand, there will be scores of people scrambling to support me.

"Jerry's not the kind of person who can stand to see someone turn their life around. He's sure to send people after me and raise hell," Caspian explained.

Given the chance, Caspian would also strike when his opponent was at their weakest.

"Jerry is currently His Majesty's most trusted advisor, and he's also powerful. We no longer have the protection of the armored soldiers. What can you do if Jerry attacks?" Willow frowned suddenly.

"As an advisor, he definitely can't openly make a move against me. He'll certainly get an assassin to kill me instead. Don't worry. The average assassin is no match for me," Caspian said casually.

"You're right. You're such an amazing man. That worm, Jerry, certainly can't touch you." Willow nodded rapidly.

"So, I want to improve myself quickly. Then, I can handle everything thrown at me in the future," Caspian stated seriously.

"Alright, you do you. It's important to make sure that you stay alive. We can do this again some other time," Willow said.

"That's my thought as well."

Now that Caspian's sleepiness had left him entirely, he headed to the river behind the villa. There, he began to study the Eldorian Scroll fragment.

…

The next day, Laina arrived in Diatoran through its tiny neighbor. She then immediately assigned Task Force Rose to investigate the situation inside the king's residence.

Laina had already completed her earlier mission. She should be receiving a medal from Balthazar.

But now, Diatoran was in danger. She was in no mood to think about her owed accolades. Instead, she should be helping Caspian figure out what had happened to Balthazar.

Jerry had already anticipated people looking into this state of affairs, so he disconnected all the cameras within the king's residence. He had already made plans so he wouldn't make such a rookie mistake.

With no camera footage, Task Force Rose couldn't find any incriminating evidence. So, they had to take a different path of action.

Jerry didn't continue to sit around and twiddle his thumbs either. He began to distance Caspian's supporters from him.

Now that Balthazar was under his control, Jerry was the one making the major decisions instead. And so, he had the armored soldiers restationed in Tigra.

Since this was an order from Balthazar himself, the armored soldiers didn't dare to disobey.

Sylvia already knew Jerry's rationale, but she had no choice but to follow her orders.

One by one, everyone that Caspian had trained was stationed elsewhere.

And now, Caspian was all alone.
