The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess
chapter-155

A messenger ran hurriedly and entered the place where The King of Amidon sat.

Angus was enjoying his drink while waiting to receive good news. He was quite happy in the following days

With Catherine in his hand, he had got a powerful card to play.

On top of that, his victory was guaranteed and the additional benefits he was going to get will be enough to push his kingdom above Tier 3.

He heard the voice of the messenger and asked him to come inside.

"What news do you have?" He asked with a pleasant tone.

The messenger lowers his head and hesitates for a moment before thinking about what to say.

Unable to muster his courage, he just handed the letter.

"Can't you read it? Don't you have a mouth," Angus asked with an angered tone.

Gritting his teeth, he spoke"Majesty, the frontier battle is over and we are defeated badly."

"What!!" Angus's expression stiffened.

"Our forces were annihilated. How is this possible?" Did he ask with a dazed expression?

"What about the Epic ranks?" Angus asked.

"All dead."

Angus felt as if he was struck with lightning on hearing the messenger's words.

'They were Pseudo Epic ranks not Pseudo normal soldiers. How can they be killed this easily after wasting countless resources on them?'He muttered inwardly.

"Your Majesty, there is more."

Angus rolled his eyes and wanted to kill this man before listening to any more bad news.

"The soldiers of Wright seemed to be invading our land and were marching towards the capital."

"They dare!" Angus shouted and slapped the armpit crushing it into dust.

"Those bastards are there to enter my land. Who permitted them? Did they ask this king before setting foot on my land"

"These idiots. I have to take care of everything by myself."

"We have additional info."

"The King of Nevan accompanied by Lady Christina and another anonymous figure is heading straight towards the capital."

Angus's eyes lit up on hearing his words.

Angus's lips curled upwards with a sinister smile"Does he think he can take down the entire capital alone."

"Relay my orders. Ask all the soldiers to gather on the walls. Place the flare on the walls and activate the defensive runes."

"I will make sure to collect the debt along with the interest."

...…

Alex, holding Riya and Christina, flew across the sky hurriedly and reached the Capital Of Amidon.

There was still some time before the sunrise.

Alex didn't go straight and landed a few distances from the City.

Alex looked at the city walls which were full of commotion.

The archers and soldiers had already lined up on the walls of the city.

It looked as if they had already gotten the wind of their arrival and were ready to take on them.

If Alex had to take a guess there were approximately 2000 people over the city wall and more might lay inside.

"Alex, what are you going to do now?" Christina asked after seeing the soldiers guarding the walls.

"I am going to cut the path open."

"How!!" Christina asked.

"I will take down the wall and bring it down," Alex replied none chanted.

"My Lord, are you sure about that?"

"Even I can't do that," Riya spoke with a worried expression.

"I am 100 per cent sure. With my attack, I am confident to destroy the wall." Alex replied.

"I am going forward, you two follow me back after I destroy the walls."

Alex raised his sword and stabbed forward while his body shot forward like a bullet.

The image of a deathly skull appeared behind his body and red lightning covered the blade of his sword and at the same time, the path before him started to tear up.

A crimson lightning bolt shot out from the tip of his sword like a beam of energy and moved towards the city wall with an astonishing speed that was less than a hundred meters far away from Alex.

The crimson beam of energy became narrower and narrower condensing into a devastating beam as it moved away from the sword and within a span of an instant, it hit the walls.

The soldiers and guards on the top of the city walls saw a beam of energy coming toward them with astonishing momentum and were horrified for a moment.

In the moment of distress, some fired arrows while others tried to attack it to neutralize it but everything was naught before the beam of destruction.

However, as the lightning hit the wall instead of displaying a scene of mass destruction something unusual happened that even Alex hadn't expected even in his wildest dream.

Countless magic circles and runes appeared on the city wall enacting a barrier and blue light burst out from the city wall.

The beam of light collided with the enacted barrier and wasn't able to penetrate it further.

The countless runes and magic circles flashed with a bright light and instead of destroying the attack, the beam of light was deflected towards Alex.

Even before Alex could blink, the fierce beam of energy that he shot at Amidon appeared before him.

Alex was taken by surprise and he reacted immediately.

Alex raised his sword to slash at the attack while on the other hand trying to enact a barrier but even after this, he was hit by the highly concentrated beam of light.

BOOM!

Rumble!Rumble

The ground collapsed and even after neutralizing a part of it, Alex was hit by the attack

The ground crumbled beneath him and Alex was shot back like a rag doll and collided with the boulders smashing them into pieces.

Alex spurted a mouthful of blood with a deep heavy wound on his body accompanied by a deep burn on his left hand rendering it useless.

Alex's vision blurred and he felt dizziness overwhelming him but he bit his tongue and flashed his teeth to keep his consciousness from fading away.

"Damn it!!" Alex screamed while looking at the runes.

It was Tier 7 runes and it shouldn't be something Amidon could afford.

There was surely someone much stronger than even a Tier 1 kingdom behind this who could lend such a thing to Amidon.

Alex's attack was capable enough to injure a Transcendent rank and in the best case scenario could even kill it but this rune was enough to deflect a Transcendent rank attack.

Alex's legs trembled as he tried to get up while blood spurted out from his lips like a waterfall.

He tried to lean on his sword to support his injured body.

He needed some time to get used to the sudden pain which was accompanied by the splitting headache.

But he hadn't even got a chance to take a deep break when he saw a bright light over the city walls.

Alex's eyeballs widened with disbelief as he saw a huge mass of concentrated energy condensing and then it shot forwards toward Alex.

"Flare!" Alex muttered as he saw the destructive beam coming toward him.

He tried to move his body to dodge the attack but his body seemed to be stuck in place.

The relapse of pain from the previous attack had paralyzed his body momentarily.

Alex ran his mind trying to figure out a way to escape the tragedy.

However, before the beam of energy could strike him, Alex was hit by a strong force and was pushed out of the way.

Alex turned his head to see a soft silky golden hair fluttering before him that hid Christina's face while she pushed Alex to the side while unsheathed his sword to take the blow instead of Alex.

"Christina!" Alex screamed and before he could mutter anything his vision was blinded by the sudden flash of light as the beam of light struck her.

BOOM!

The place exploded with a loud blast and the huge boulders at the place flew through the sky before disintegrating into smaller pieces that fell from the sky like a rainfall of dust.

The ground exploded by the impact while dust and debris flew all around.

A huge rift was formed by the impact and Alex, who was nearby, was struck by it and was blown away again.

Alex's body was dragged around and his body slid through the ground like a piece of doll.

"Argggg!!" A painfully groan escaped from Alex's lips.

Alex's body didn't slow down and was about to hit the tree but Riya appeared behind Alex and held him tightly and her back thrashed against the tree.

"My Lord are you alright?" Riya shouted with a worried tone seeing Alex's condition.

Her eyes became teary seeing Alex's body which was filled with burns. His upper layer of skin seemed to be torn off from some places and the blood had been dried off.

Alex coughed violently while trying to get up on his feet.

Alex's breathing hastened and he looked at the place while Christina saved him.

As the dust settled, he saw a huge rift had been formed and to his absolute horror, Alex wasn't able to find Christina.

"Christina!! Where is Christina?"

"Riya did Christina.." Alex shuttered in his speech.

"My Lord, calm down. I can feel Christina's shallow breathing."

"Riya, go and look for Christina. I am alright." Alex ordered.

Seeing Alex's frightening tone, Riya knew that Alex was on the verge of breaking down and losing his insanity.

She fears that if something happened to Christina, his Lord might really lose sanity.

Biting her lips, she looked at Alex's worsened condition and decided to look for Christina's condition.

She pulled Alex and laid him down against the tree and she moved towards the rift.
