Lord Chapter 116
The Almighty Lord Caspian
Chapter 116 Hand Over the Traitor
âThe Embassy of Tigra,â John informed Caspian of the latest news.
The situation had escalated beyond their plan.
âThe Embassy of Tigra?â Caspian was somewhat surprised.
He hadnât anticipated Zachary betraying the nation!
âYes. What actions should we take now? Please give your orders, Lord Caspian!â John asked.
This was a matter concerning two nations, hence he didnât dare to make decisions alone.
âAs the regional chief in the Two Lakes area, Zachary has betrayed the nation! Issue immediate orders for people to go to the Embassy of Tigra and demand that Zachary be handed over!â
âLord Caspian, sending an army to the Embassy of Tigra might provoke objections from the people of Tigra. It might even lead to war!â John expressed his worries.
âDonât be afraid! Diatoran has an abundance of talents. If they refuse to hand over Zachary, weâll start a war!â Caspian asserted determinedly.
âYes, Lord Caspian!â John replied firmly.
At the Embassy of Tigra, Chris Olsen was reviewing documents when Zachary, the regional chief of Diatoran, came to see him. So, he decided to meet him.
âI have many classified Diatoran documents, including some crucial information. If you can ensure my safety and help me escape safely, Iâll provide you with the secrets on Diatoran,â said Zachary.
âSure! Seeing as youâre so sincere, Iâll ensure your safety. But could you show me the classified documents first?â asked Chris.
âNot now. I can only give them to you once I leave Diatoran safely.â Zachary wasnât an idiot. He knew that these classified documents were his lifeline.
If he disclosed these secrets now, he would be left with nothing to protect him.
âAlright. Iâll arrange for you to leave Diatoran tomorrow.â
Chris was clear about Zacharyâs current state, so he knew that Zachary wouldnât lie. Hence, it
was a worthwhile deal for him.
Just then, panicked voices echoed from outside.

âAmbassador! Something bad happened!â a guard shouted in a panicked tone.
âWhatâs happening? Whatâs with all this panic?â Chris exclaimed irritably.

âA military unit has arrived outside, and theyâve surrounded the entire embassy!â the guard answered, still panicking.
âWhat!â Chris was alarmed by the news.
When Zachary heard the news, he began to panic as well. He hadnât anticipated that the Diatoran army would come so soon.
Chris and Zachary went to take a peek by the window and saw that the area had been surrounded by armored vehicles.
âHand over Zachary York!â
âHand over the traitor!â
âHand over Zachary York!â
The soldiers shouted loudly outside the embassy.
Seeing this, Zachary trembled in fear. He said to Chris beside him, safety. I have a lot of secrets on Diatoran that you want.â
You must ensure my
âI know. Since Iâve already promised you, Iâll keep my word. They wonât dare to break in recklessly,â Chris stated calmly.
âIf they dare to surround the embassy, they mustâve made thorough preparations!â Zachary exclaimed.
âSo what? Do they dare to declare war with my mighty nation, Tigra? If they dare to come in here, theyâll be provoking the dignity of Tigra. This will definitely cause a dispute between the two nations,â Chris spoke arrogantly.
âI hope thatâs indeed the case,â Zachary said.

At this moment, the leader of the troop, Derick Myers, shouted, âThe traitor of my country, Zachary York, has entered the Embassy of Tigra. Please hand him over immediately!â
âI donât know any Zachary York,â Chris replied.
âWeâve received information that the traitor is inside your embassy! We hope that you can hand him over and not ruin the relationship between our two countries over this!â said Derick.
âWhy are you yelling! Zachary is right beside me, but I wonât hand him over! What are you going to do about it?â Chris shouted with irritation.
âI donât have time to argue with you. If you donât hand over the traitor, Iâll lead my men in!â

âDo you have the guts? This is the Embassy of Tigra. If you break in, youâll be declaring war against our nation!â Chris said disdainfully.
âDamn it!â Derick hadnât expected Chris to be so difficult to deal with.
He didnât dare to act recklessly and instead reported the situation to John.
When John knew about this, he went to report to Caspian.
whatâs the situation?â
Caspian was about to sleep but saw the phone call and answered it.
âLord Caspian, the situation is a bit tense. Chris refuses to hand over Zachary,â John reported.
âDo they want to protect Zachary?â Caspian asked him.
âWe received information that Zachary has classified information on Diatoran. He has indeed. betrayed the nation!â John stated.
âThat jerk! We canât let him hand over the classified information,â said Caspian.
Zacharyâs betrayal had made him the enemy of the entire country.
âBut the situation is tense right now. Our men are afraid to barge in,â said John.
âSend out my order! Give them ten minutes. If they still refuse to hand over the traitor, the soldiers can charge in. Anyone who doesnât cooperate shall face immediate consequences!â Caspian stated firmly.
âLord Caspian, this is a critical issue. Shouldnât we seek Balthazarâs opinion?â John asked.
âThereâs no need for that. I have the power to make the decision first before reporting to him. Zacharyâs betrayal is evident. I want him to be immediately captured! Iâll take responsibility for any problems that arise,â Caspian assured him.
âYes, Lord Caspian!â
Being brave enough to act at critical moments without hesitation was the hallmark of a great
leader.
Outside the Embassy of Tigra, Derrick had received orders from John and became more. confident. âYou have ten minutes to consider. If you still donât surrender him to us, we will
make our move!â
âI would like to see if you have the guts!â Chris remained defiant.
âYour ten minutes start now!â Derick didnât want to waste his time and began the countdown.
Chris didnât take him seriously at all as he didnât believe that they were brave enough to charge in.
+25 BONUS
Time passed, yet there was no action taken by Chris.
âAll guards, pay attention to me! If they dare to charge in and attack, theyâre declaring war with Tigra. Deal with them ruthlessly!â Chris gave an order.
âYes, sir!â Tigraâs guards stood readily.
However, they had no confidence in winning. After all, there was an entire troop outside. Their forces were limited, and they might not even withstand the attack.
When Zachary saw the situation outside, he trembled with fear. At this point, he could only hope that Chris could keep him safe.
âSix, five, fourâ¦â
Derick began counting down.
The soldiers were prepared and ready.
Seeing this, Chris took a few steps back as he had no confidence as well.
âThree, two, one!â
Derick gave the order, âMen! Charge inside and capture Zachary alive! Show no mercy to anyone who dares to stop in your way!â
The fully armed soldiers began to surge forward like a tide.
The imminent battle was about to begin.
