Lord Chapter 738
The Almighty Lord Caspian
Chapter 738 The Andrews Family Got Carried Away
âCaspian, how did you get dismissed while the Andrewses got promoted? It just seems off,â Willow said.
âYou shouldnât pay too much attention to rumors about royal workings. You probably wouldnât understand even if I were to explain,â Caspian said.
âAlright, then. You said youâd help me rebuild Southlake Corporation, but that seems to be impossible now. And Miranda and the others are now unemployedâ¦â Willow trailed off, her expression downcast.
âDonât worry, darling. I keep my promises,â Caspian assured.
âBut you lost everything. How can you fulfill that promise?â Willow asked.
âYouâll find out in the future. I have some time on my hands now, so come with me to the hospital. Letâs visit Tom and Aria,â Caspian suggested.
âAlright.â
Caspian then left the residence with Willow and Sherry.
They had just exited the villa when the head of the armored soldiers received at new order: the soldiers were to leave Riverside Villa. With Caspianâs removal from his post, he no longer had the right to be guarded by them.
Jerry was the one behind this arrangement. He had to eliminate every obstacle if he wanted to take on Caspian. Only then would he succeed in his goal.
As Riverside Villa was Caspianâs own property, Jerry had no way of confiscating it.
âLord Caspian, Mr. Andrews just gave us the order to leave the residence,â the commander of the armored soldiers said. He felt helpless.
âFollow his orders and leave, then. You have to do so. Iâm no longer a War God, and I donât need you to protect me,â Caspian said.
âYou will always be Lord Caspian, the Diatoranian God of War, to us. We want to follow you till the end,â the commander declared.
The rest of the armored soldiers chimed in as well. They also wanted to stay with Caspian. They didnât want to leave.
âIf you still think of me as a God of War, then listen to me. Leave this place right now. Your superiors will definitely punish you if you donât. So, take your men and. leave,â Caspian said.

âYes, Lord Caspian!â All the commander could do was agree.
âI already told you not to call me âLord Caspian.â Go on, now.â
âTake care, Lord Caspian,â the armored soldiersâ commander said.
âStop dragging things out and scram.â Caspian might sound callous, but he was reluctant to see the armored soldiers go. He had trained them, after all. He was somewhat attached to them.
The armored soldiers then left the villa grounds.
Willow couldnât help but tear up when she saw Caspian being forced to dismiss. his former subordinates.
After the armored soldiers left, Caspian and Willow drove to the hospital in a luxury car. Although Caspian no longer held the post of War God, the average person still couldnât attain his level of life.
Jerry, Kelvin, and Zane couldnât hold back their joy when they returned home. After all those years of preparation, their plans were finally bearing fruit.
The residence staff were ready to greet them when they arrived.
âCongratulations on your positions!â the staff called out. They were excited that Balthazar had given such high positions to Jerry and Kelvin. Now, no one in Diatoran could go against the Andrews family anymore.
Jerry, Kelvin, and Zane went to the study. They couldnât let the lowly staff overhear their earlier conversation.
âNow that weâve been appointed to our positions, what should we do next, Dad?â Kelvin asked.
âYouâre now the commander of the Royal Guard. Youâll be in charge of recruiting more officers,â Jerry said.
âBut where would I look for more men?â Kelvin asked, worried.
âDonât you have brains? Donât we have plenty of Skyarch Palace members? Now that the king is under our control, we can do anything we want. Our word goes!â Jerry huffed.
Kelvin realized that Jerry had a point. âThatâs right. I could just grab a few people from Skyarch Palace to pretend to be royal guards.â
âExactly. We have the king dancing in our palms anyway. You can just do

whatever you want,â Jerry affirmed.
âWhat about me and my position as Inspector General? Do I need to recruit as well?â Zane asked.
âGrab some Skyarch Palace guys over. Then, gather intel and get rid of anyone who has any doubts about us. If you want to come out on top, you must be prepared to get your hands d*rty and be brutal!â Jerry declared.
âGot it!â Zane nodded.
âNow that Caspian has been dismissed, he no longer has any guards surrounding him. Are we going to kill him?â Kelvin asked.
âWeâre in no rush. Let Caspian enjoy a few more days of life.â Jerry waved a hand dismissively.
âBut why? I think itâs dangerous to let Caspian live,â Kelvin said.
âHe has only just been removed from his position. If we kill him now, weâll be the main suspects. But heâs a normal citizen now. We can take him out any time we want,â Jerry explained.
âPoint taken.â Kelvin nodded.
Jerry paused before continuing, âBut that doesnât mean we can let our guard down. Caspian was the Diatoranian God of War for years.
âHe has amassed a good amount of power and influence over the years, especially with the armored soldiers. We need to transfer them elsewhere and stop them from guarding him.â
âTheyâre a force to be reckoned with, but where can we transfer them?â Kelvin asked.
âDidnât Tigra say we may station our troops on their land? We can just send Caspianâs armored soldiers there. Thatâs two birds with one stone.â Jerry chuckled.
âThatâs great. Caspian wonât have anyone by his side when we go after him. He wonât be able to do anything,â Zane said.
Back in Southlake City, Caspian and the others finally arrived at the hospital. When they went to Tom and Ariaâs ward, they found Avon walking them through some rehabilitation exercises. Meanwhile, Miranda watched from the side.
âLord Caspian, when⦠When did you arrive?â Avon was taken aback by his

presence.
âIâm here to see Aria and Tom,â Caspian said.
Aria and Tom were also startled by Caspianâs visit. They had also heard about his dismissal and werenât sure how to comfort him.
âHow are your injuries?â Caspian asked.
âDr. Long has been helping us with therapy for a while. Weâve almost made a full recovery,â Tom answered.
âYou know how skilled a doctor Avon is, Lord Caspian. Weâre bound to be alright as long as we have him. Weâll be back on our feet soon,â Aria said while smiling.
âThatâs good.â Caspian nodded.
âBy the way, what happened when you were in Dhord City?â Avon asked curiously.
âItâs a long story. At any rate, itâs complicated,â Caspian replied.
âI think that the king has been completely hoodwinked. He must have listened to some little wormâs lies to dismiss you like that. His Majesty is sure to ask you to return to your post one day!â Avon declared.
âThings will naturally work out. Thereâs not much point worrying about the future now.â
Caspian eyed Tom in curiosity. âI heard from Miranda that youâre part of Diatoranâs rich list. Why did you make a career change and become a martial artist? Who exactly are you?â
âAllow me to be honest, Lord Caspian. Iâm actually a member of Greenton in West City,â Tom clarified.
