Chapter 800 A Blunder
"Sir, we haven''t found Lyndon, but we found these two people sneaking around outside the King''s residence. They want to have
an audience with His Majesty, but they refuse to tell us why, so we decided to bring them to you,” the guard said while pushing
the two men forward.
"I''m Kelvin Andrews, themander of the guards and the son of Jerry Andrews, His Majesty''s trusted advisor. Why do you wish
to see His Majesty? Exin yourselves!" Kelvin questioned the twomoners who were dressed simply.
The two men exchanged nces before kneeling in front of Kelvin.
"Please stand up for us, Mr. Andrews!" the men cried out tearfully.
"What happened? You can tell me," Kelvin said with faux agreeableness.
"We''re from Panville. A few days ago, a man came to ourmunity. He said he was going to Filren to assassinate their king
and needed a ce to stay, so we took him in. But he turned out to be a cold-blooded killer instead!"
The two men paused and started wailing.
Kelvin figured out what was happening. He deduced that the two men were talking about Jethro.
"That murderer killed a few people in Panville and beheaded them. He also forbade us from reporting this to anyone."
Kelvin had a look of realization. Jethro was trying to trick them all. If this got out, Jethro would be dead meat.
Either way, Kelvin didn''t care what the truth was. All he knew was that he had something to use against Jethro now.
"To think that such a deplorable person is roaming free in Diatoran! Rest assured, you two. I''ll find a way to locate this man and
punish him! Guards, tend to these two men. I''ll meet His Majesty and report this to him right away," Kelvin said with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Andrews!"
The two men thought they had found a righteous official who would seek justice on their behalf. s, they had no idea they were
entering the lion''s den.
Avon had never met Jethro before. When he shook hands with Jethro, there was a brief trace of unease in his eyes.
Jerry picked up on that.
“Mr. Dunn, what did you do to His Majesty? His Majesty no longer responds to mymands," Jerry questioned Avon.
"| told you, Mr. Andrews. His Majesty is too frail right now. If you try to use witchcraft on him, his body will crumble apart!" Avon
exined.
Jerry and Jethro both sported thoughtful looks.
Just then, Avon heard a barely audible whisper.
"Morse code."
It was something everyone in the army learned during their basic training, and Avon was well-versed in it as well.
He knew Caspian had something to tell him.
"I''m not familiar with witchcraft, Mr. Andrews. Let me check on His Majesty again," Avon said before sitting down on the edge of
the bed.
He ced the fingers of his right hand on Caspian’s wrist.
Using internal force, Caspian controlled his pulse and used it to convey a coded message.
“Have you found a solution yet?"
Avon tapped out his response. "No."Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Caspian gave him another coded message. "I have the pill with the cursed bug under my tongue. Find a chance to get it out and
study it."
"Got it."
Avon was thrilled by the news, but he didn''t waste any time on unnecessaryments.
The pill with the cursed bug was precisely what he needed.
Meanwhile, Jerry and Jethro both felt apprehensive as they watched Avon, who had his eyes closed.
Balthazar was Jerry''s trump card. If anything happened to Balthazar, Jerry wouldn''t be able to continue having an iron grip on
Diatoran.
All of a sudden, Avon gave Caspian a pat on the back.
Caspian coughed and pretended to vomit, silently spitting out the pill onto Avon''s palm.
Then, Avon pretended to check Caspian once more.
"Mr. Andrews, there''s an urgent call from Champion Welch of the Central ins!" a guard suddenly reported.
Annoyed, Jerry snapped, "I told him to hold his horses!"
“But Champion Welch also said that if His Majesty doesn''t take his call, he''s going to march into the King''s residence to have an
audience with him!" the guard mumbled feebly.
Just then, Caspian sat up and looked around in a daze.
“Are you alright, Your Majesty?" Jerry came over and asked with a smile.
"| used life force to clear out His Majesty''s meridians. He''s no different from a puppet now. He''ll do whatever you say," Avon
muttered to Jerry.
Jerry was overjoyed. Everything would be fine as long as Balthazar obeyed his orders and appeased Joseph.
Joseph was getting suspicious, so it was important to dispel his doubts.
"Mr. Dunn, Mr. Roman, bring His Majesty over to the phone so that he can talk to Joseph," Jerry instructed.
Then, Jerry muttered some words into Caspian''s ear, using him as a mouthpiece.
"The Four War Gods are to hold their positions and defend their territories. No one is allowed to act without mymand or
they''ll be executed!
"Your Majesty, is that you?" Joseph eximed agitatedly.
He had heard rumors about Balthazar being controlled like a puppet.
But now that he was on a call with Balthazar himself, he felt less concerned.
That being said, Joseph was still
somewhat doubtful. Why did

"It''s me, Champion Welch. Did you have something to tell me?" Caspian asked.
To dispel all possible doubts, Caspian repeated the words Jerry had fed to him.
“Are you alright, Your Majesty?" Joseph asked in concern.
“Everything''s fine. I''ve just been very busy, and | came down with the flu because of that," Caspian replied, again as per Jerry''s
instructions.
Now that Joseph finally got on a call with Balthazar, he swiftly reported on Diatoran''s situation.

rmed, Jerry hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand.
"Excellent!" Caspian said.
Jerry was dumbfounded. Why did Balthazar say that?
"Tell him to stay put. Don''t make any reckless moves," Jerry whispered into Caspian''s ear.
"Tell him to stay put. Don''t make any reckless moves," Caspian repeated verbatim.
"| will pass the message to Champion Santos, Your Majesty. What about the reinforcements?" Joseph asked.
Jerry was flustered. He had made a blunder with the sentence, and Joseph misunderstood his meaning.
s, he couldn''t even raise the volume of his voice, lest Joseph sensed something was amiss.
"Tell him no," Jerry said as he red at Caspian. He even raised his right hand in front of Caspian, poised to hit him if he said the
wrong thing.
"No, 200 thousand isn''t enough. You need 500 thousand!" Caspian swiftly said to Joseph.
Jerry felt like he was about to pop a vein.
If a million soldiers were gathered at West Arinds, it meant that a battle was inevitable.
On the other hand, Joseph didn''t suspect a thing. This was the response he expected from Balthazar, the mighty and imposing
ruler he knew!
