The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 36 Why Isn’t Caspian Back Yet

A muted thud rang out. Blood splattered everywhere.

The subordinate’s face was covered in blood, but he was still alive!

“Lord Caspian! You…” Harry Lewis, the man who wanted to shield Caspian from the bullet, had frozen. He

was staring at the scene in front of him in shock.

Blood was gushing out of Caspian’s right arm.

During that critical split second, Caspian stuck his arm out to shield Harry.

He had used his own arm to protect his subordinate!

The moment the bullet struck Caspian, his blood sprayed onto Harry’s face.

Caspian considered every one of his soldiers his kin. He could not stand by and allow Harry to die

protecting him from the bullet.

Furthermore, it was a special day today. He was not going to let anything happen to anyone!

Harry was stupefied to find that Lord Caspian of all people had shielded him from the bullet.

He was ready to die defending Caspian, but instead, it was Caspian who saved him.

Sylvia and the others were also thunderstruck to find that Caspian had been hit.

“Lord Caspian!” the crowd exclaimed as they rushed toward him.

Caspian used his left hand to grab Harry’s gun as he yelled, “Stop! Break out of the encirclement! That’s

the best form of defense!”

Then, he raised the gun, aimed at the mountain, and pulled the trigger.

All three shots he fired hit their marks. Every single enemy Caspian detected was killed in an instant!

Caspian was an expert marksman Even though his right arm was injured, he was just as skilled with his

left.

After hearing Caspian’s order, it finally dawned on Sylvia and the others that breaking through enemy lines was the best way to protect him!

It was pointless for them to act as physical shields. The enemy had come prepared and would have more than enough firepower. There were less than ten of them. If they did not break through the encirclement,

sooner or later, they would all go down.

Once they all died, it was easy to predict what would become of Caspian.

When they realized the severity of the situation, they began to look for cover and launch a counterattack!

Since there were enemies on both sides, Caspian and his people split into two groups as well.

Caspian, Sylvia, and Caspian’s other subordinates were all experienced fighters who had survived

numerous battles.

Even under such dire circumstances, they were able to leverage the favorable terrain and rely on their

wealth of experience to mount a counterattack!
