The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 795

Concerned about Balthazar's condition, Jerry immediately rushed back to Balthazar's bedroom after finishing his exchange with Byron.

By the time he got back, Avon, disguised as Jett, had already completed Balthazar's health check. Balthazar looked extremely pale.

Startled, Jerry swiftly asked, "Is His Majesty alright, Mr. Dunn?"

"I never thought Caspian would be this vicious! His Majesty has been poisoned, but thankfully, I discovered it in time," Avon informed with a sigh.

"Is His Majesty's life in any danger? I've assigned doctors to keep an eye on his condition at all times, so why didn't they detect anything unusual?" Jerry asked in concern.

"As I said, Caspian's a vicious man. He used a colorless, odorless poison that's hard to detect. If I hadn't used life force to check on His Majesty's condition, the poison would've gone undetected. Thank goodness we caught it in time," Avon said solemnly.

"Tell me the truth, Mr. Dunn. How is His Majesty now?" Jerry questioned frantically.

"I used life force to quell the poison, so for the time being, His Majesty isn't in any danger. However, his body is weak. For the time being, you need to avoid using witchcraft on him. Otherwise, it'll only harm his body further.

"Furthermore, it's possible that the spell might clash with the poison in his body and fail as a result."

Jerry felt a little less worried after hearing Avon's response.

Thankfully, he now held most of the real power in Diatoran. Even without Balthazar, he wielded enough power to get things done.

Although Byron was being rather aggressive, he was clearly hesitant and wouldn't dare to declare war just yet.

Right now, Caspian was the only person Jerry was concerned about. Caspian was his biggest threat.

"Thank you for everything you've done, Mr. Dunn. You look tired. Why don't you stay the night here at the King's residence?" Jerry suggested with a smile.

Avon was startled. Not many could enjoy such a privilege.

In any case, Avon was no fool either. He wasn't going to stick around at the King's residence any longer than necessary. He'd have to be on his guard at all times.

"I'm nothing but a lowly man, Mr. Andrews. It has already been a great honor for me to even meet His Majesty. I still have matters to attend to, and I need to check on my subordinates too," Avon said as he silently ushered the injured Lucas toward the door.

Jerry didn't try to keep Avon. He simply instructed his people to walk them out.

Once Avon was gone, Jerry returned to Balthazar's bed. He shook his head as he observed Balthazar's frailty.

"You'd better hang in there a little longer, you old fogey."

…

At Dhord City, Logan had prepared a lavish villa for Sherry. Ever since he got the news, he got restless and couldn't stop pacing around.

Logan felt excited and nervous at the same time. He had also prepared a gift to welcome Sherry.

…

Dark smoke rolled out of a cave outside Southlake City. Soon, two disheveled men rushed out while coughing hard.

They were the real Warren and Lucas.

After escaping, they hid in a remote cave. To avoid being discovered, they even cooked and relieved themselves inside the cave.

Alas, on this occasion, the smoke got too choking. They were forced to leave the cave for air.

As soon as they emerged, they spotted a few inspectors from the Inspector General's office.

Before they could register what was happening, Joey and her subordinates apprehended them.

"Chief Sanders, I think these two men are martial arts fighters. Should we report this to the higher-ups?" one of the inspectors asked.
