Chapter 479 Caspian''s Origin
Balthazar looked at Caspian and continued, "It''s nothing important. I just wanted to apologize."
Caspian was stunned as he couldn''t possibly ept an apology from the King himself.
"You''re too humble, Your Majesty. I don''t understand …"

Balthazar sighed and exined, "I''m sure you had some resentment when I sent you away from the
battlefield back then. To be honest, I didn''t feel good issuing that order either."
"After some years of peace, I already understand the reason for your decision back then, Your
Majesty."
Balthazar was surprised by Caspian''s reply.
Caspian continued, "I was young and foolish back then … I wanted to continue my warpath as I was
blinded with glory. I''ve realized that it was a very dangerous move back then, and I''m sure plenty of
people were turning into my enemies behind my back.
"Your Majesty''s decision to send me home at such a crucial time was precisely for my safety. Thank
you."
Constantly seeking greater and greater honor and merits wasn''t necessarily a good thing.
"You''ve grown so much." Balthazar nodded his head.
Caspian was only in his early 20s when he first ascended to the title of the Diatoranian God of War,
which ced him at the forefront of all five Gods of War.
His growth and development was regarded as a legend, which further emboldened the young Caspian.
Balthazar wanted him to cool off and develop a more mature sense of responsibility.
Balthazar asked, "Do you think it''s a good idea to start a war now?"
"It would be best if nothing happens. But we can''t possibly tolerate having our enemies showing off
right in front of us."
Balthazar was very satisfied with Caspian''s answer. "Very well. Our enemies will pay the price of blood
should they ever step foot into ournds."
"Your Majesty, I''ll be taking my leave to begin my preparations."
Time was running out as two days weren''t enough for Caspian.
Balthazar nodded and continued, "Of course. I have onest question. Have you found out about your
biological parents yet?"
He had long known about Caspian''s origin.
Caspian had been trying to look for his biological parents throughout the years, but he never managed
to find any information.
Time passed, and he eventually forgot about the matter.
Caspian shook his head. "Not yet."
He had been trying to find out about his origin and lineage, but not a single clue was found.
"I''ve heard that you may be rted to the Hunter family of Dhord City. They lost a young boy that was
simr to your age back then during a crisis."
Balthazar''s rtionship with Caspian was publicly seen as that of the King with his militarymander,
but they were also good friends in private. He had been helping Caspian to look for his biological
parents.
Caspian was confused. "The Hunter family?"
He began to recall how Lilith had told him about how she found him as a baby still in swaddling clothes.
There was a broken half of an emerald bracelet hanging on his neck.
Caspian began to wonder how he was possibly connected to the Hunters.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I''ll look into it after I''ve defeated our enemies."
He said his goodbyes to Balthazar and returned to Soutke City to begin preparations for war.
A group of men suddenly appeared before Caspian as he was about to reach the airport.
The Diatoranian God of War was escorted with dozens of cars on the way to make sure that he was
safe.
The driver came to a quick halt as he realized that they were being blocked from proceeding onward.
The escort bodyguards became alert as they wondered who the people blocking the road were.
Caspian took a good look at the crowd and noticed that the leader was a inly dressed old man.
The remaining men behind him were some strong-looking men.
Caspian didn''t recognize any of them, however.
The old man stepped up and asked, "May I ask if you''re Caspian Lynch?"
Caspian rolled down the car window and asked, "I am. Can I help you?"
The old man took a good look at Caspian before excitedly nodding his head. "I''ve finally found you, Mr.
Hunter!"
Caspian was utterly confused by the senior''s babble.
The old man continued, "It''s me, Denzel! I used to carry you in my arms when you were still a baby! It
was a tragedy when we lost you back then. The Hunters have tried looking for you ever since!"
Caspian was left even more confused after listening to the old man''s exnation.
He couldn''t help but wonder why the Hunters came looking for him now, coincidentally right after he
had just learned about their existence.
He had just wanted to assign Sylvia to investigate the Hunters, but they had already shown up right
before him.
Caspian replied, "Enough with your nonsense. I''m not your Mr. Hunter."
"I''m sure you''re just surprised. You have a birthmark on the back of your right shoulder, don''t you? And
if I recall correctly … You had a broken half of an emerald bracelet with you when you disappeared. Do
you still have it with you?"
Caspian was shocked as the old man''s ims were both correct, even though he had never told
anyone about it.
Unless …
Caspian asked, "What''s this emerald bracelet you''re talking about?"
"This is the other half …" Denzel brought out a piece of the emerald bracelet.
The bracelet looked crystal clear. It was evident it was made by a highly skilled craftsman.
The most surprising thing for Caspian was the fact that it matched with the other half of the emerald
bracelet in his possession to form apleted bracelet.
Caspian was left dumbfounded as he wondered if he was really about to unravel his origin and lineage
just like this.
He couldn''t ept reality just yet.
He waved his hand and shouted, "We''re moving on!"
Caspian was excited, but he didn''t show it on his face.
He needed to find out theplete truth before making a decision.
And as the Diatoranian God of War, he still had duties to perform.
Enemies were in front of Diatoran''s doorsteps, and he couldn''t spare any more of his thoughts and
efforts for anything but the preparation for war.
Denzel smiled as he watched the fleet of cars drive farther and farther away.
He had already determined that Caspian was one of the Hunters as he resembled the current head of
the family a lot.
Perhaps Caspian left in such a hurry because he couldn''t handle the truth just yet.
…
Caspian gave John a call and assigned him new orders while sitting in the car.
He assigned John to send out his fleet toward the southern waters to join the military exercise.
Caspian and Benjamin boarded different nes as they flew toward South Arinds.
Themand center for South Arinds was within Gathram, which was also where John was
stationed.
Caspian and Benjamin couldn''t share the same ne as they were both important individuals to the
country.
It was an unwritten rule where in the event of idents, Diatoran wouldn''t lose more than one God of
War at the same time.
They remained cautious even when they were assigned professional escorts along with a well-thought-
out n.
Nobody knew if the enemy''s secret agents had already infiltrated Diatoran.
It could be risky as no one was certain how deep the enemies had already infiltrated.
