Lord Chapter 422

Chapter 422 The Secrets of the Eldorian Scroll

Caspian took out the Eight Extreme Fist manuscript.

When Xandros saw it, he fell into deep thoughts.

“You can keep it.” He waved his hand.

“Mr. Stewart Senior, this belonged to the ancestors of the Stewart family. Is it appropriate for me to take it?” Caspian was surprised.

“If it were decades ago, I would never have given you this. Now that I’m over a hundred years old, there’s no point in keeping it. What matters to me is the happiness of the villagers.” Xandros smiled.

Having lived for over a century, he had seen through many things.

With that, he stood up and walked away.

Xandros walked far before suddenly coughing up blood.

“I’m getting old, and sooner or later, I’ll have to go through this. I don’t know how much longer I can live.” He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and sighed.

Although he had some skills, he was old.

His b*dy was strained from following Caspian around.

Not to mention the fist–to–fist attack he had with Nixon took a toll on his b*dy.

Fortunately, all the troubles were resolved, and he had nothing to worry about.

“Caspian!” Sylvia greeted respectfully once Caspian was back at their residence.

“Lord Caspian!” John also saluted.

“How did you handle the situation?” Caspian nodded and asked.

“Everything is resolved, but there seems to be one corpse missing,” John reported.

“Is that so?” Caspian asked in confusion.

“Horace Moore, the protector of the TMAA, seems to be missing among the corpses,” John replied.

Caspian was somewhat surprised to hear that Horace not only survived but also escaped.

“Please punish me, Lord Caspian!” John lowered his head.

“Don’t worry about it. He’s just a pest. There’s no need to concern ourselves,” Caspian said dismissively.

+15 BONUS “Thank you, Lord Caspian!” John stood up, but his expression was grim. It seemed he wanted to say something but couldn’t bring himself to.

Caspian noticed his expression and asked, “You seem hesitant. This isn’t you at all!”

“Lord Caspian, many people have petitioned the King, saying that you have caused chaos in Diatoran. They’re requesting His Majesty to transfer you back to the border for supervision. However, His Majesty has suppressed these requests,” John said solemnly.

Caspian smiled indifferently while listening to this. His recent actions had created quite the commotion as it affected the interest of many.

Hence, some were getting restless.

However, Caspian wasn’t concerned. The more anxious these people became, the more likely they were to expose themselves.

“John, send some people to investigate who’s opposing me,” he instructed.

“Understood!” John’s face darkened. It seemed those people were in for trouble.

How dare they be foolish enough to oppose the God of War?

However, Caspian didn’t care at all.

“Prepare to leave. We’ll return to Southlake City tomorrow,” Caspian said.

“Yes!”

With that, Sylvia and John left.

Caspian took out the two fragments of the Eldorian Scroll.

He couldn’t help but sigh as he looked at them.

One of them was a gift from his master.

“I wonder how you’re doing now.” He sighed.

Five years ago, Caspian’s mentor left a letter and disappeared.

His last words were that he wanted to break through to the ultimate supreme grandmaster

level.

As for where he went, he never disclosed it. Time passed, and Caspian never saw him again.

Without him, Caspian wouldn’t have achieved his current success.

He only managed to become the Diatoran God of War due to his mentor’s guidance.

The King’s favor toward Caspian was also influenced by the fact that the King, too, was taught by Caspian’s mentor.

Hence, Caspian didn’t mind that people were talking bad about him in front of the King.

His relationship with the King was no different than siblings!

Caspian snapped back to reality and pieced the two fragments together.

The patterns on them gradually became clearer.

“It seems I must collect all the fragments to uncover the secrets!” Casplan murmured.

He only had two pieces with him and still needed more.

Caspian stared at the patterns on the Eldorian Scroll fragments and entered a meditative state.

Slowly, the patterns became an action.

He sat there and kept on meditating until the middle of the night.

It was the next day.

Even though Caspian hadn’t slept all night, he was still full of energy.

His aura had become stronger.

“Greetings, Lord Caspian!”

“Greetings, leader!”

John, Aster, Avery, and the others respectfully greeted him.

They looked at Caspian and exchanged glances.

Astonishment filled their eyes.

In just a night, Caspian’s aura had become more profound.

Sylvia felt it most keenly.

She was very familiar with Caspian’s aura as she was with him all the time. But now, as Caspian stood there, he exuded an invisible pressure. This was a symbol of strength!

“Why are you all staring at me?” Caspian said as he walked out.

Every step he took seemed to stir the hearts of those around him.

Even Sylvia didn’t dare to say much.

“Everyone has contributed to the success in seizing the Eldorian Scroll fragment. After we return, I will reward you all,” Caspian said.

“Thank you, Lord Caspian!”

“Thank you, leader!”

+15 BONUS

After hearing Caspian’s words, everyone became excited.

Sylvia and the rest had put in a lot of effort to make sure the operation was a success.

Rewards were naturally due.

Caspian and his group arrived at the entrance of the Stewart family estate and were ready to leave.

At this moment, hundreds of the Stewart family villagers gathered.

“Mr. Lynch!”

“Mr. Lynch! Are you leaving? Let us see you off!”

“This is a small token. You must accept it!”

The villagers handed over their belongings to Caspian.

“Dear villagers, I appreciate your kindness. I know life is hard for you, so please keep these things for yourselves.” Caspian sighed.

These villagers were too simple–hearted.

“Mr. Lynch, if it weren’t for you, the Stewart family estate would’ve been in a lot of danger!”

“Yes, please accept these gifts. Otherwise, we’ll feel guilty!”

Each of the villagers insisted on it.

Caspian suddenly didn’t know what to do.

As the Diatoran God of War, he was used to being swift and decisive on the battlefield.

However, facing these kind and honest villagers, he felt bad to refuse them.

“Caspian, just accept feel better,” Xandros said.

the gifts. This way, everyone u

“Okay, thank you all!” Caspian nodded.

He knew that if he didn’t accept these things, he definitely wouldn’t be able to leave.

Sylvia and others accepted all the gifts on Caspian’s behalf. They were mostly eggs and poultry.

Caspian was moved when he saw this. He had just done what he should, but these villagers.

were still so enthusiastic.,

“Everyone, go about your business,” Xandros said.

The villagers felt reluctant to leave but still stepped back.

+15 BONUS

They had no choice but to listen to him.

“Caspian, now that you’re leaving, I don’t know when we’ll meet again. Perhaps you won’t be able to see me next time!” Xandros sighed.
