Chapter 768 Covert Operation
Caspian replied, âUnderstood. If I encounter any problems in the future, Iâll report them to the Inspector Generalâs office immediately.
âYour Majesty, you awarded me the Diatoranian medal five years ago today. If possible, I would like to return to serve Diatoran by your side.â
âThere will be opportunities. Just stay still for now. Take this time to reflect.â
Caspianâs expression turned ugly at Balthazarâs words.
He was probing Balthazar earlier. Nothing had happened five years ago on this day. The day he was honored with the title of Diatoranian God of War coincided. with Diatoranâs victory. Balthazar couldnât have forgotten.
âBy the way, do you know the details of what happened to the Massey family and why your father, Logan, was disgraced?â Balthazar asked.
Caspian was stunned for a moment at the mention of this topic. Why would Balthazar suddenly bring this up?
âI donât,â Caspian respectfully replied.
He sensed something amiss. Balthazar was behaving very strangely.
âBecause Logan deliberately abandoned you. Also, your mother didnât run away from home. Logan drove her out.â
Caspian might have believed Balthazarâs words in the past. But after their strange conversation, he began to have doubts.
He hadnât asked Balthazar about this, yet Balthazar suddenly mentioned the Massey family. Clearly, it was brought up with a strong purpose.
Balthazar wanted to further strain Caspianâs relationship with the Massey family.
Caspian was now sure that Balthazar had indeed been manipulated. However, he wasnât sure why Balthazar was being threatened by Jerry.
âI would never acknowledge a person like Logan as my father. Iâd rather kill him, âCaspian deliberately said.
He knew that only by expressing his stance could he appease Jerry.
After all, Jerryâs greatest fear was Casplan regaining control of the military.
âNevertheless, you must not fully trust everything Logan says,â Balthazar said before ending the call.
At the Kingâs residence, Balthazar collapsed as soon as he hung up the phone.
âHahahal Casplan is quite funny. Heâs already in trouble himself, but he still wants to return to the kingâs side,â Zane sneered.
âAlthough Casplan has lost his official position, he still commands respect. It might be difficult to deal with him,â Jerry expressed his concern.
âDad, youâre overestimating Casplan. Heâs now a lone wolf without military. power. We have no reason to fear him,â Kelvin dismissed.
âWho knows for sure? Casplan was dismissed by the king before, but the king still called him back. To prevent such a thing from happening again, I must issue an order in the kingâs name so that heâll never recall Casplan again.
âThis way, Casplanâs followers will give up on him entirely,â Jerry said sinisterly.
Us move is like removing the source of trouble! By then, nob*dy will
stand by Casplanâs side anymore. We must capture Caspian alive and torture him.
On the other end, Casplan was filled with doubts after the call. He couldnât understand why Balthazar didnât seek help despite being controlled.
He then called Laina.
âYes, Lord Casplan?â Laina answered respectfully.
âHowâs the investigation going?â Casplan asked.
âLord Caspian, Skyarch Palace has many secrets, and there are many organizations within it. Various factions and seets have joined, and there are many talented individuals Iâve never heard of before,â Laina reported.
âBe careful not to arouse suspicion from its members. I just spoke with His Majesty.â
âWhat? Did he ask for your help? What can I do?â Laina eagerly asked, thinking Balthazar had finally sought Casplanâs aid.
âNo, it seems he has forgotten what happened before. I suspect that Jerry and his group have controlled Balthazarâs mind,â Casplan said.
âWhat should we do now? The Kingâs residence is filled with Skyarch Palaceâs people. Itâs difficult even for me to enter. If thereâs an opportunity, I can check on

His Majestyâs condition,â Laina said helplessly.
She wanted to storm into the Kingâs residence and rescue Balthazar. But the place. was heavily guarded. She dared not act rashly.
âDonât act on your own. Avoid alerting them. Take two members of team Rose and try to infiltrate Skyarch Palace. You might uncover some clues,â Caspian, instructed.
Members of Task Force Rose were experts in infiltration and covert investigation. Moreover, their identities were highly classified, making it impossible for
ordinary people to trace them.
âI got it. Jerry is surely targeting you now, so you must be careful. Iâll come at once if you need me,â Laina said with concern.
âDonât worry. Jerry canât harm me. Focus on rescuing His Majesty.â
After saying that, Caspian ended the call. When he exited the bedroom, he found Willow staring at him strangely.
Ever since Willow learned that Caspian was the Diatoranian God of War, she had been wary of him, fearing he might get involved with other women.
Feeling helpless, Caspian could only tell her about his conversation with
Balthazar.
Though Willow didnât entirely believe him, she didnât say much. She felt Caspian had no reason to lie to her.
Seeing Caspian and Willow together, Sherry couldnât help but smile.
Just then, she approached Caspian and said, âCaspian, Logan called me.â
âWhat does he want?â Caspian asked coldly.
âHe said for us to return to Massey Manor,â Sherry replied.
Logan intended to bring Caspian and Sherry back to Massey Manor so they could be reunited as a family.
However, Sherry wasnât interested. She outright refused Logan.
Furthermore, Sherry had been enjoying her time at the villa these past few days. She hadnât been eager to return to Massey Manor. The thought of how she had been looked down upon by the Masseys in the past irritated her.
Yet she was also worried about Caspianâs safety. Only by returning to Massey Manor could they ensure their safety.
Of course, Caspian understood Sherryâs thoughts. She had finally found some peace these past few days. Sending her back to Massey Manor might lead to a repeat of her previous struggles.
âWhatâs the point of going back? Weâre living well here, arenât we?â Caspian firmly stated.
Upon hearing this, Sherry didnât press further.

The next day, while everyone was having breakfast, the doorbell rang.
Cecilia hurried to answer it, only to find Denzel with a smile standing outside the villa. Logan was behind him.
Seeing Logan, everyone except Caspian instinctively stood up.
Caspian spoke with a displeased tone, âWeâre eating. Why stand up?â
âSir, go back with Mr. Massey. He sincerely wants to bring you back. You should at least give him a chance for redemption,â Denzel said.
