The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess
chapter-125

Inside the Office room.

Alex looked at the reports made by his subordinate.

Alex's bandit nature overpowered him once again and unable to shake it away, he decided to take away all the weapons of opposing forces for his own use.

The quality of the weapons was quite good and after smelting and undergoing further refinement, they might become weapons of much better quality.

Alex put down the document and looked at Christina who was taking a sip of coffee while doing some paperwork.

"Christina, where is mine?" Alex asked while pointing at Christina's hands.

Christina looked at the coffee in her and staring at Alex spoke with an indifferent tone"You didn't ask for coffee?"

Alex facepalmed and calmed his nerves and asked"Christina, did we get any orders from Catherine recently or do we have to act on our own from this point."

"The five days time limit is going to be over today and we have to head out towards the next battleground."

Christina placed the cup on the side and said"Yeah, I have been pondering about it."

"Knowing her, she should have already sent a messenger. It should be arriving soon with the order."

"By the way, what are you going to do now? How are you going to act?" Christina asked Alex curiously.

"Hmmm!" Alex rubbed his chin and crinkled his lips pondering for a moment.

"Should I act independently and give Amidon a heart attack?"Alex muttered and rolled his eyes towards Christina and shook the idea.

"I will accompany you, Christina."

"With me joining you, we can finish the things quickly and converge the army at a point then head towards Amidon Capital straight," Alex suggested with a wide grin.

Christina thought for a moment and agreed to Alex's proposal which sounded quite plausible.

Knock! Knock!

As Christina and Alex were discussing, they heard a loud knock and a servant shouted behind the door.

"Your Majesty and Lady Christina, we have received a message from Wright."

"Come in," Christina spoke.

A burly man came into the room and placed the envelope on the desk and gave both of them a gentle bow and retreated.

Christina opened the letter and started to read.

Her expression changed a bit and her eyelashes fluttered a bit as she blinked a couple of times.

"What's in the letter?" Alex asked with a sombre expression.

There weren't many things that can pull such a reaction from Christina so whatever may be written in the letter, it ought to be something serious.

Christina closed the letter and looked at Alex's worried gaze and said"There has been a change in scenario."

"We won against Amidon in Plains of Krevar and Rocky Chancel quite easily."

"But according to the letter, it looked as if Amidon purposefully lost rather than us winning through our strength."

Alex raised his brows, unable to understand what was going on.

"Are you sure about that? I mean Amidon purposefully letting us win two fronts when they are already in a worse state"

"It sounds quite odd," Alex spoke as he analysed the situation.

"Yes, Catherine's analysis rarely went wrong. The group saw odd movements in Amidon forces before their surrender and retreat."

"Maybe, they are planning something else, "Christina muttered.

" So, what orders do we have now?"Christina asked.

"She asked us to head towards the capital where we will jointly think of our next operation."

"I see," Alex muttered with a deep sigh as he lay on the sofa staring at the ceiling.

Things were moving a little bit faster than expected.

If things go on like this, he is going to meet Catherine within three to four days.

He hadn't even sorted out things with Christina fully and now he had to entangle with Catherine.

He was sure that he would soon find himself in a situation where he would be crushed from both fronts.

Alex turned his neck towards Christina who went back to her work.

'She looks quite elegant and stunning even while working.'Alex muttered and stood up from her seat and walked towards Christina and sat on the armpit of the chair.

Christina rolled his eyes at Alex but tried to ignore him as best as she could.

She was already used to Alex teasing her bit by bit during his stay.

"Hey, Christina, would you mind if I ask you a question?" Alex spoke with a soft tone.

Christina just nodded her head in response to Alex's words.

"Christina, tell me the truth. What do you think of me?"

Christina, who was writing something, suddenly stopped and she turned her head to see Alex's red eyes staring at her with an innocent puppy-like gaze which startled her.

If someone didn't know how Alex rampages on the battlefield, they may think that this boy is sweet and too cute and the seriousness in his eyes on top of that makes it hard to ignore him.

Christina pondered for a moment about Alex's question.

At first, she didn't know what to say and was at a loss for words but thinking about the time when Alex entered the battlefield, and then eliminated the traitors plunging the other side into chaos.

Moreover, unlike others who think that ladies don't deserve to be on the battlefield, Alex fairly supported her and she liked his open mentality.

Thinking about all the things, she could only summarise him in one word.

"Dependable."

"You are quite dependable," Christina spoke with a slightly curled lip.

Alex's eyeball widened for a moment as he saw the minute change in Christina's expressions along with her lips and thought that he might be hallucinating but it disappeared like a flower which withered as soon as it bloomed.

But still, just one word.

'The seriousness with which she thought and took her time, I thought she was going to say a hell of a lot of words like Alex you are handsome, wonderful, a pretty and strong man but....."

Alex sighed with a sorrowful expression.

'At least she said something good instead of cursing me.'Alex muttered inwardly as he got from that place and started to walk towards the door to leave.
