The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess
chapter-123

Somewhere in Amidon.

On top of the rock, a figure sat with his eyes closed.

He had greyish white hair and a cold merciless look that chilled anyone who looked in his direction.

His upper body was naked and a fierce breath emerged from his body.

The veins in his muscles bulged outward while his muscles seemed to bulge to the point which made him look like a monster.

A warm breath exhaled from his lips and his body glowed with a greyish hue which illuminated the whole place.

For an unknown amount of time, the figure remains seated without moving a single muscle of his body.

Sitting on a rock with a sparkling hue made him look akin to a sage, a man who had attained enlightenment.

Twitch!!

With a small twitch, his eyes flickered and he suddenly opened his eyes.

The glow radiating out from his body started to expand radially outwards and a huge pillar of light emerged from his body.

Dust debris flew all around due to the sudden outburst of violent energy from his body and swept away everything in the periphery.

The dust clouds started to disperse after some time leaving the man who sat on the rock with an apathetic and cold look on his face.

As soon as he opened his eyes, the air surrounding him froze due to his intense gaze.

Raising his hand, he clenched his fist, and a small shockwave appeared sending the air around his fist far away.

The bulging muscles in his body started to revert to the previous state, changing his inhumane look to something more human.

Glancing around the place which had been in tatters, he got up from his place.

It was then his lips tugged slightly upwards as he slowly opened his mouth.

"Finally, I made a breakthrough."

"With this, all the thorns that lay in my path shall be crushed."

"It's time for the beginning of my reign."

With this, his figure slightly drifted forwards and like a flash, his figure disappeared.

.......

In The Capital of Amidon.

The news of the overwhelming defeat in the battle of George had reached the capital.

The whole capital was in an uproar and was in a state of unrest on listening to the news.

Not a single man of the forces that was sent towards Fortress of George was able to survive even though it was supervised by Heron who was a Pseudo Epic rank expert.

But what was more infuriating was that they weren't able to protect the flare which cost tons of money to borrow.

Meanwhile, a secret meeting was held in the underground chamber in the castle which consists of confidential members.

At a round table, three men sat while engaging in a heated conversation.

"What do we do now?" A man with green hair asked with an irritated voice.

"How did we lose the battle when we have invested that much manpower in a single place?"

"Calm down, Count Yeon."

"Don't forget who was our opponent at George?"

"We can only accept our incompetence and find a way to fix this quickly." Another man with white hair spoke.

"Calm down!!! You want me to calm down."

"For god's sake do you even know what is going on Duke Less?" Count Yeon shouted fiercely and slammed his fist on the table.

"Can you say that to the King with such calmness?"

"He will cut us into pieces and feed us to the dogs once he listens to the news about the failure."

"And to make the matter worse,that the bastard lost the flare. The flare which the king warned us not to use till last resort?"

"But because of you two idiots who wanted to please the king and win the war as fast as lightning, you permitted them to use the flare even after I disagreed."

Duke Less frowned on hearing Count Yeon's words and his usually calm face lost its colour.

Losing the flare was a big deal which might cost their lives in the worst-case scenario. After all, they were the ones who had been supervising the war in the King's absence and permitted them to use the flare.

"What can we do now? I accept that this was my fault for trusting that asshole too much who with Pseudo Epic rank couldn't win over the Fortress filled with ants."

"We can only put our hope in you now."Duke Less spoke and looked toward the third man sitting on the other side who stared at him and Yeon with an amusing expression.

" Kekekekekekeke!!"

The man laughed wildly with an evil smile and muttered"I knew something like this was going to happen. So, I prepared some playing cards in advance."

"Prime Minister, please save us this once. We will give you a huge sum for this favour. " Both Duke Less and Count Yeon spoke at the same time.

"Don't worry, just trust me."The Prime Minister raised his hand and a man's shadow appeared beside him.

"Are the subjects ready?" He asked.

The man nodded and said, "Everything is ready, waiting for your order sir."

"Good!!!"

Another shadow flickered and a man appeared carrying a scroll and started to read it on getting the approval.

"Hoho!! The King is back." The Prime Minister spoke with a smile which gave a chill down the spine to one spine while Duke Less and Count Yeon froze in fear.

......…

A greyish-white figure walked on the reddish carpet with golden embroidery.

A majestic aura radiated from him making everyone look at him with awe.

As he walked inside the dark hall where many people stood, they were stunned for a moment seeing the aura materialising from the man giving them a sense of threat.

The sound of heavy breathing could be heard throughout the surroundings but the increased breathing wasn't out of tiredness nor fear.

Many emotions flashed on the faces present on the people present out there.

Respect, awe, reverence, jealousy, fear and distress.

Step!Step!Step!

The greyish white-haired man's footsteps echoed throughout the hall, it was the only sound the people present out there could hear.

Everything else except the man's sound of footsteps seemed to vanish.

The man walked over the top of a flight of stairs by the end of the hall where a gigantic and obscure black throne was present.

As he sat down, he released the aura that he had been holding back.

An eerie chill permeated throughout the hall and sweat trickled down from their faces on feeling the fearsome and suffocating aura.

The aura coming from the King was incomparable to the previous state which signifies one thing.

All the men present out there bowed on their knees and shouted in unison for the man who is the King Of Amidon.

"Your Majesty, we congratulate you on the breakthrough."

"Long Live to his Highness!!"

Loud cheers erupted from the people present in the hall which filled the entire throne room.

Laying his back on the soft cushion of the throne, he spoke slowly"Tell me, how is the situation?"

As soon as his voice fell all the noise and loud cheers that were reverberating in the hall suddenly stopped and the people present out there bowed their heads out of fear.

They even prayed that the king might not call their name.

King Amidon rolled his eyes all over the people and pointed his fingers at one of the men and said"You there, report me everything."

The man towards whom the finger was pointed trembled in fear but since he was ordered, he had to do his part.

"Yo...Your Highness..."

"Presently, our soldiers had surrounded Amidon from all five fronts."

"Hmmm!"

"Out of the five fronts, the war at one front is already over."

King Amidon raised his brows and asked"What was the result?"

The man swallowed his saliva in fear and mustering every bit of courage, spoke"We.."

"We...We.."

"We what!!!"

"We lost. Our soldiers that had been sent to Fortress of George had been annihilated." The man spoke faintly while lowering his head and trying to avert his gaze from the fearsome glare of the king.

"Hmmm!" The King closed his eyes for a moment and seemed to be immersed in a deep throat.

"Trash!" A loud voice filled the entire room and he just shook his hand a little with a small gesture.

The man who informed the news suddenly felt a strong force strike him and his figure flew back in the air spurting blood and he fell onto the ground like a lifeless object.

Gulp!!!

Everyone swallowed their saliva due to anxiety and fear as they may be the next target of King's assault.

"Throw this trash into the trash can." The King ordered.

Following his order, images of two silhouettes flickered and holding the unconscious man they disappeared from the site as soon as they appeared.

"You, report me about other things." The King pointed towards another man.

After hearing about the recent situation, he rubbed his forehead and spoke.

"I see an ant is trying to stand in my way."
