The Almighty Lord Caspian

Chapter 627 Assassinate the King

"Why didn't His Majesty notify me in advance that he was coming to Southlake City?" Caspian asked.

"His Majesty had only sent me a secret report and asked me to deliver the message to you, which is

already considered an advance notice. I kept calling you but couldn't get through," Benjamin explained.

The matter that Benjamin wanted to discuss with Caspian was the one about Balthazar.

Balthazar's visit to Southlake City was not an everyday occurrence.

Should anything happen to Balthazar while he was in Southlake City, Benjamin might be held

responsible as well if he had failed to notify Caspian of Balthazar's arrival beforehand.

Now that Balthazar was already on the plane, he would be arriving very soon. Benjamin needed

Caspian to be fully prepared.

"I got it. I will handle this matter," Caspian said.

"I'll also head down to Southlake City to welcome the King," Benjamin said.

Even though he was far away at North Aridlands, the matter concerning Balthazar's visit, as well as the

battle in Southlake City, was inextricably related to him.

"Is there anything else?" Caspian asked.

"That is all. I just wanted to notify you about the King's visit," Benjamin said. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"Great. I'll hang up the phone now," Caspian said before hanging up.

Afterward, Caspian looked at Willow, who was in the bathroom. He walked over to her.

"Are you done, honey?" Willow was becoming excited again when she saw Caspian approaching.

"Yep. It's all done," Caspian said.

He was planning to carry on with their activity as well.

"Let's get back to it, then." Willow only had a bath towel on. She had been waiting for Caspian.

"I'm sorry, Willow. I have something urgent to deal with. Let's just do it another time," Caspian said

apologetically.

"Is there anything else that's more important than us trying for a baby?" Willow suddenly asked in a

displeased tone.

"This is not a trivial matter. It's classified information. I can't tell you." Caspian beat around the bush.

It was a matter concerning Balthazar. He had to be tight-lipped about it.

"Didn't you say that Southlake City is safe now? What else could be important?" Willow whined.

"This matter is even more important than the previous war. Even I had not seen it coming," Caspian

said.

"Can't you wait a little while longer? Just hold on and leave when we're done," Willow said irritably.

Willow did not expect that Caspian would take so much time.

"I really can't. It's really urgent. I must go." Caspian knew what he had to prioritize.

He had to arrange the matters concerning Balthazar well. He could not afford to let anything happen to

him. Caspian could not put Balthzar in danger for his selfish desires.

"Fine. Do what you have to." Even though Willow was a little bit reluctant, she knew Caspian's

dilemma.

Caspian was the Diatoranian God of War. There were a lot of things he had to do. As his wife, she

should be tolerant.

Willow also knew that something very important must have come up for Caspian to leave at such an

important time.

Caspian straightened himself out before heading out of the villa swiftly.

"Let's gather, everyone!" Caspian ordered.

Phoenix Vanguard, Task Force Rose, and the others immediately gathered.

Even the people from the Inspector General's office immediately stood in a line.

Even though they were not Caspian's subordinates, he was the Diatoranian God of War. This meant

that they had to obey his orders.

As for Zoey, she was not part of the military, so she did not need to obey his orders.

She stood at a distance and watched the troops gather. She wanted to know what was going on.

"Armored Battalion, leave a team here. The rest of you, come with me to Southlake Airport!" Caspian

ordered.

Caspian had to have some armored soldiers stay behind to protect Willow.

"Yes, sir!" everyone replied in unison.

They obeyed Caspian's orders even though they did not know why they were going to the airport.

As this was sudden, there had to be something important going on.

"Let's move out!" Caspian said with a wave of his hand.

Macy, Laina, and the others all got on the SUVs with Caspian.

Macy felt a little embarrassed when she thought about what happened between Caspian and Willow.

Caspian was feeling a little awkward as well. After all, they heard him and Willow…

"Sir, why are we suddenly going to Southlake Airport?" Laina asked.

"The King is coming to Southlake City." Caspian revealed the information about Balthazar's visit to

Southlake City.

"His Majesty is coming? Are you serious?" Laina and Macy were very surprised to know that Balthazar

would come to Southlake City.

"That's right. His Majesty is already on the way," Caspian said.

"Things have just quieted down in the city. If any remaining enemies are in the city, His Majesty might

be in danger!" Laina said.

"I know. That is why we must make some arrangements now," Caspian said.

"What should we do, sir?" Laina asked.

"His Majesty's visit to Southlake City is an important matter. The safety of the King must be guaranteed.

Task Force Rose, your team must do a good job in intelligence work," Caspian said.

"Yes, sir!" Laina answered resolutely.

"How's your injury?" Caspian asked.

"I'm fine now." Laina shook her head.

She suffered some minor injuries on her arm before. Nonetheless, they were much better now as they

had been treated promptly.

"You have made great achievements in the battles. I will definitely reward you," Caspian said.

"It's my duty," Laina answered.

"Do you have any instructions for me, Lord Caspian? What should I do?" Macy asked.

"Your job will be to lead Phoenix Vanguard to guard, ensure the airport is safe, and then welcome the

King, that's all," Caspian said.

"Yes, sir!" Macy nodded.

Laina immediately gave an order to Task Force Rose, asking them to monitor Southlake City to prevent

any mishaps from happening.

…

Now that Southlake City was safe, those who left the city had all returned.

The Stewart family had also rushed back from Garthram.

Instantly, the entire city started becoming congested.

The Kings of Vadesia and Astronia had also heard from the intelligence department that the King of

Diatoran was going to Southlake City.

The two Kings immediately held a conference call.

They felt that they should take this opportunity to assassinate Balthazar.

Diatoran might just attack the two countries next if its King wasn't dead.

They were hoping to avenge the war heroes, Robert and Viktor.

As long as they could assassinate the King of Diatoran, they could attack Diatoran again.

At last, the two Kings made a plan to assassinate Balthazar.

They had also arranged for the spies to lie in wait in Southlake City and wait for the right opportunity to

assassinate Balthazar.

These spies happened to blend in with the commoners as they entered Southlake City.
