Lord Chapter 727

Chapter 727 The Royal Scepter 

“What do you mean, Dad?” Kelvin asked, confused. 

Jerry said, “Now that Caspian was bold enough to disobey the king’s orders, we can use this to rid him of his title as the Diatoranian God of War!” 

Kelvin had a realization. He said, “Got it. Caspian had committed a crime 

punishable by death when he went against the king’s orders. Besides, the king is the most powerful person in Diatoran. 

“Although Caspian is the Diatoranian God of War, he’s just a subordinate under the king!” 

“Exactly. I was worried because I couldn’t think of ways to deal with Caspian. But now that he’s disobeyed the king’s orders, we have a legitimate reason to take action against him without arousing doubt,” Jerry said with a chuckle. 

Kelvin laughed. “Caspian was way too arrogant this time. He’s always been disdainful to everyone else because he thinks His Majesty treats him with high regard, but he’ll have to pay the price for his arrogance now!” 

At this moment, Zane piped up, “Aren’t we getting a bit too excited, Dad? What if Caspian refuses to come back? We have no other methods to make him do so!” 

“His Majesty has a royal scepter. When Caspian sees it, he must return,” Jerry said. 

Kelvin and Zane understood what he meant immediately. Seeing the royal scepter was the same as seeing Balthazar himself. Caspian had to return, or he would be prosecuted for treason. 

Kelvin said, “This is a great idea, Dad! He must come back if we deliver the scepter to him!” 

“Exactly. If he dares go against the king’s orders even after that, we can charge. him with the crime of treason!” Zane replied. 

“If the royal scepter is used, Caspian must end up dead no matter what. If he returns, we will persecute him. 

“If he doesn’t, we’ll cut off his retreat route and deploy our men to work together with the Filrenian troops and eliminate Caspian’s!” Jerry said viciously. 

“Let’s deliver the scepter to Caspian in the king’s name, then!” Kelvin said. 

Jerry nodded. “Great. We’ll wake His Majesty up now and ask him for the royal 

scepter.” 

Jerry, Kelvin, and Zane quickly headed to the king’s residence. Balthazar was no longer capable of thinking for himself and was already no different from a puppet, so they no longer needed to fear him. 

Jerry entered the residence directly, shouting, “Wake up, Your Majesty!” 

Balthazar was roused awake from his dreams. Upon seeing Jerry hover above. him, he was enraged. “What are you shouting so loud for, Jerry? Didn’t you know that I was sleeping?” 

Balthazar had lost some of his memories, but his temperament and nature. weren’t affected. 

Facing an enraged Balthazar, Jerry was about to grovel in front of him–the need to do so had long been carved in his bones. However, he suddenly remembered that he had learned witchcraft and thus no longer had to fear Balthazar. 

“I was forced to, Your Majesty. I need to report something important to you,” Jerry said. 

“So, what is it? Just tell me!” Balthazar snapped. 

Jerry said, “I got word recently that Caspian has disobeyed your order and is unwilling to return here.” 

Balthazar retorted, “What? How dare he be so bold? How dare he disobey me?” 

Jerry continued, “Exactly! He’s become prideful because of his achievements, and he doesn’t think that highly of you anymore.” 

“He must have his reasons for doing that. He’ll never go against my orders otherwise,” Balthazar said. 

That enraged Jerry. Although Balthazar was under a spell, he was still on Caspian’s side! 

“Your Majesty, Caspian has entered the central regions of Filren with only the armored battalion and Phoenix Vanguard with him. He’s courting his own death at this point! 

“In addition, the King of Filren has gathered the soldiers all over his country to surround Caspian. If Caspian and his army refuse to retreat, they will be wiped out!” 

Jerry hadn’t put his witchcraft skills to use yet. He planned to convince Balthazar verbally.

However, Balthazar said, “Caspian’s called the War God who’s never lost a single war for a reason. Perhaps he can seize the King of Filren within the shortest time possible!” 

Jerry felt resigned. It seemed that he couldn’t change Balthazar’s mind without reciting a spell as Balthazar subconsciously held boundless trust in Caspian. 

He muttered something under his breath–a spell. Balthazar froze on the spot as 

voice kept on speaking in his mind. 

“Caspian has been moving a bit too fast this time, indeed. Perhaps this will incur great losses.” Balthazar had become a puppet. He was saying ridiculous things such as this because those words were what Jerry wanted him to say. 

Jerry was overjoyed. He didn’t expect witchcraft to be effective. He could practice more, and Balthazar would completely be under his control after that. 

“You made the right decision, Your Majesty. In order to decrease the number of casualties, we must command Lord Caspian to retreat quickly,” Jerry said before using his witchcraft skills again. 

Balthazar said helplessly, “You’re right, Jerry, but Caspian is currently far away. I can’t do anything even if he disobeys me.” 

“You can summon Caspian to Dhord City using the royal scepter, Your Majesty. If he refuses to comply even after that, he must be intending to commit treason!” Jerry bit out. 

Balthazar said, “Yes, I still have the royal scepter. To ensure the safety of the army, I’ll have someone deliver it to Caspian immediately so that he will return to Dhord City!” 

This, too, was a statement Balthazar had made when under Jerry’s control. Frankly, their conversation was basically Jerry talking to himself.

Balthazar entered his study and took the royal scepter out. He commanded, ‘ Jerry, have someone deliver this to Lord Caspian and tell him that he’s to journey back to Dhord City quickly.” 

“Yes, Your Majesty! I won’t disappoint you when you’ve given me this responsibility!” 

Jerry was overjoyed. This witchcraft had miraculous effects, indeed! 

Caspian would have to rush back here after seeing the royal scepter. Based on what Jerry knew about him, Caspian would never commit treason. 

Next, Jerry arranged for his men to deliver the scepter out immediately. 

Meanwhile, Balthazar went back to sleep after taking out the scepter. 

Jerry, Kelvin, and Zane left the king’s residence. They were so overjoyed that they were about to forget themselves. 

The fact that they could compel Balthazar to issue any command they wanted. meant that their family could do anything they wanted in the future. 

After plotting for so many years and recruiting so many martial artists, the Andrews family finally succeeded in controlling Balthazar. 

“I have a question, Dad,” Kelvin asked. 

“About what?” Jerry asked. 

“Caspian’s army is advancing 

succeed in taking down Filth impressive momentum, and it seems they’ll 

success?” 

soon. Why not have Caspian return only after hist 

“Exactly!” Zane added. “I don’t understand that, either. Won’t everything Caspian has done go to waste if he’s asked to return now? 

“We might as well let him take down Filren. They’ll have to kneel before us in that case. Isn’t that a good thing?”
