The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess
chapter-538

Aslan along with Kinley Star Knights who guarded Alex's wives swallow their saliva watching the scene before him.

Aslan thought Alex would need time to stabilise the North.

First, he needed to get control over the troops so that he could voice his opinion.

He thought Alex would find it hard to establish his authority over the vast number of troops, however...

Things seemed to be quite different from what he had imagined.

"Am I dreaming?"Aslan rubbed his eyes wondering if this was a dream.

"You are perfectly fine Captain."

"This is reality. It seems we have underestimated His Highness."

Aslan nodded and looked at the neatly arranged troops stationed before him.

A huge number of Knights appeared here to greet them.

There were two obstructions one had to face if one wanted to take control over Northern troops.

The first obstruction was First Prince Sean and the Second was Axel Zart.

First Prince Sean seemed to be on Alex's side so the troops under Sean wouldn't pose many problems and they might have accepted Alex's authority, so Axel might resist Alex's control.

But, much to his surprise as soon as they got out of the portal, they found Axel Zart waiting for them and bowed his head as if he was serving his master.

Aslan walked towards Axel with a frown and raised his eyebrows"How did you lose your hand, Axel?"

His words drew everyone's attention.

Axel who went towards the capital came back after losing his left hand and no one knew exactly what had happened.

Axel sweated profusely as he felt a cold glance from Catherine and said"I was attacked by some adversaries which cost me this."

"Hmmm!"

"It's better than losing your life or other precious things."Yvonne snorted as she knew about the real story.

"By the way, who are they?"Aslan spoke as he saw three new faces in charge of the troops.

Catherine followed Aslan's sight and said"He is Hurt."

"Beside him is Joey and the one at the back is Jeremy."

The trio noticed everyone's glances and bowed their heads.

"What the..."Aslan freaked at seeing them.

Joey and Jeremy were at early Legendary rank however Hurt contrary to everyone's wildest dream was at peak of Mythic.

"Monster...He is another monster."

Hurt ignored Aslan who was like a child in front of his eyes and walked towards Catherine and Yvonne.

"It's nice to see you all, Her Highness. I hope all of you did not have any inconvenience during the journey."Hurt spoke politely.

"The journey was comfortable."

Catherine mumbled and looked around"I don't see Christina anywhere and also where is Athena."

"Madam Christina is at the front whereas Madam Athena seemed too busy with some kind of runes."

Hurt felt a bit odd calling them Madam instead of lady however he had no choice as last time, Alex beat the shit out of him for calling them lady which he does not why so taking precautions he decided to address them as Highness.

"Do you know Alex's plans?"Yvonne asked as Alex kept her in the dark.

"No!"Hurt shook his head and spoke.

"We were asked to organise the troops as soon as possible and eliminate the traitors. Thankfully, with Duke Axel's support, we were able to carry out things quickly."

As the discussions became heavy, Catherine and Yvonne had a bad premonition.

At that time, a strong pressure radiated all around.

The intense bone-chilling aura froze everyone and drew their attention.

Swish!

With a blast, a man appeared in the sky carrying an unfathomable but familiar aura for many.

Dark hair floated against gravity and as if a night in itself a deadly dark aura emerged from his body with a bloody glint emerging from his eyes.

He descended and glanced around.

As Alex appeared in their sight, they bowed their heads and waited for him to speak.

"Soldiers of the North.."

"I sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart for protecting the North from those cruel invaders who wanted to cause chaos. Your sacrifice is what keeps other people safe. However, in this process, we have been pushed back too much."

"Let me ask you one thing."

"Just how long..."

Alex paused for a moment and watched everyone's expression.

"Are we going to sit back and watch them carry out their atrocities?"

"Tell me just how long are we going to let them do this."

The soldiers' expressions grew solemn and thinking about their lost comrade made their hearts boil.

"It's time for a change."

"It's time for them to know our might."

"It's time for them to know the might of the strongest Empire that had existed in history."

"And it's time to have our revenge," Alex shouted and his words echoed like a blast of thunder which was further accompanied by the loud shout of the soldier's cries.

"Revenge."

"Revenge.."

"I, Alex Von Leonhart will lead you to have your revenge and quench your thirst with the blood of the bloody Demons."

"Now move and trample over the border. Don't be afraid of the miasma as the Goddess Blessing is with you."Alex muttered and snapped his finger.

Huge golden circles spread over the sky one after another.

Showers of holy water started to descend which seemed to exude strong holy powers.

While the humans felt refreshed and alive, the miasma at the borders started to disperse.

It was chaotic all of a sudden. Everyone was unable to hide the shock on their face.

"Is this what Athena was busy with?"Yvonne spoke with a perplexed expression.

"Hmmm! It seems so."Catherine nodded.

"Catherine, listen to me carefully. You and Christina will lead the troops from the vanguard while Yvonne and Athena will look for the rear."

"Why me?"Catherine screamed in a panicked tone thinking about what she was going to do at the front.

"Strategists work from the back, don't they?"

Alex moved his face closer to Catherine and said"Listen to me Catherine, in this war, we have only one strategy which is to advance and kill."

"Leave the rest to me."

"You can also take measures from the front."

"You are speaking as if you are going somewhere else, why don't you fight at the front?"Catherine asked.

Alex nodded with a smile"I am going to meet the Elves."

"I will finish the negotiation work today."

"How can it be that easy? Do you think it is easy to conclude this quickly ?"

"Hahah!"Alex laughed and his figure started to float up.

"You are misunderstanding something. I am not going there to talk."

"I am going there to subdue them."

Alex's voice resonated while his figure disappeared.

Aslan who heard this almost fell on his butt.

'Do you want to flip the entire world with might?'

....

In the sanctuary of Elves

The Elf King Hindell stood with a solemn expression.

Beside him, the Elf Queen Irina tried to calm him.

"We will surely find a way."

Hindell held Irina's hands and shook his head.

"Saintess Penelope, is there no way to save the world tree?"

Saintess Penelope opened her golden eyes and said"I can only stop the corruption. This is something beyond my powers. The Holy power does not seem to have any effect on this."

It was the same words that she repeated no matter how much he asked.

'Is this the crisis the Elder was telling about? He also asked me not to get into conflict with the chosen one. I don't know what he meant by that?'

'I mean why the hell will we fight with the person who is going to help us? It is absurd.'

Hindell raised his head and looked at the gigantic tree that seemed to touch the sky and cover half of the Elves' land.

Many leaves of the World Tree have fallen and branches have become dried twigs.

Each leaf of the World Tree is precious and could be used for various purposes.

Now seeing such valuable things getting rotten pained his heart.

As he was lost in thoughts, suddenly the entire forest shook.

BOOOOOOOM! BOOOOOOOM!

The platform on which they stood started to shake.

"Honey, what happened?"Irina asked with a frown.

Hindell's face became pale as a sheet of paper.

"I need to go. Someone had breached the barrier."

"What?"Irina screamed.

Even Penelope's expression started to crumble.

"Is this the work of that creature? Are they finally making a move directly?"Irina asked in a worried tone.

"I don't know but I will make sure that none of them gets out alive."Hindell roared in anger and his figure disappeared.

With a single step, he appeared at the outer periphery of the Elves and his eyes widened as he saw corpses lying all around and fire spreading wildly.

And at the centre of all this, a man with black hair stood holding a dead body.

Seeing Hindell a cruel smile formed on his lips and throwing the dead elf aside, he jumped towards him.
