The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess-Novel

Alex took on the four Epic ranks at once who used everything at their disposal to get rid of him.

Lucas parried one of the man’s attacks and flicked his sword to give a slight cut to the other.

One of them appeared on his back and shot two poison-coated daggers at him.

Alex jumped and rotated his body allowing the dagger to pass through him while landing on one of the man’s shoulders and lashing his sword at him.

His sword dug deep into his back and the man coughed blood but as Alex tried to pull his sword, the man held his sword trying to stop it from pulling out while stopping Alex’s movements.

Alex stared at two men coming at him quickly. He narrowed his eyes and his lips curled upwards instead of fear.

“You only know how to gang up on others.”

Without anyone noticing, Christina appeared beside the man and thrust her sword skilfully at one of the man’s backs.

Its tip went through the man’s back emerging from the front.

She kicked him aside like a lifeless doll and stomped the ground and threw herself at the other.

Alex kills the man and lunges toward the remaining one.

A series of clashes erupted as the two of them engaged while both of them ganged upon the remaining one.

Alex found it quite pleasant to gang up on the other side while the opponent seemed to be on the verge of tears and breaking down.

It might be the first time the man had suffered such an injustice as he was the one who always ganged upon others.

A few moments later, Christina laid the blade of his sword on the black robbed man’s neck and asked coldly.

“Dog of scum. Were you sent by that traitor commander?”

Alex blinked his eyes and rubbed his ears wondering if he had heard something wrong.

Christina was a girl of few words and she didn’t even use honorifics like this.

Alex noticed that Christina was slightly agitated and looked quite edgy and thought that it might be due to the incident taking place today when she had visited her parents.

Alex saw a small wound on her abdomen and frowned and wanted to ask her about it but stopped for Christina to finish.

“Kill me, I will not answer your question..”

“As your wish,” Christina muttered and sliced the man’s neck with an indifferent expression.

“How were you wounded?”

“Angus fought with me,” Christina spoke, glimpsing at Alex’s figure and pondering for a moment, asking, “Did you know about this and suddenly rush here?”

Alex scratched his cheek and said, “No, I didn’t know about it.”

Alex wanted to laugh out loud at Angus’s misfortune. That guy just puffed up his pride and came out from his prison and might have achieved his previous strength only to be plummeted by Christina.

Alex had already known about the fight and he knew that Angus was no match for current Christina who had almost recovered to her peak.

He may have had a chance during the war but now he is unworthy to even challenge her.

Alex gave a mysterious smile.

Christina sighed and said”Sorry, I wasn’t able to kill that dog. He escaped.”

“It seems that you know this person quite well. Were these all his men?” Alex asked, raising brows.

Christina nodded.

Alex’s expression changed a bit and he breathed heavily.

Walking forward, he wrapped his hand around her waist and said”Let’s go.”

Alex’s warm breath brushed past Christina and his hands warmed her a little in the rain.

The rain covered all sounds and the blood from the battle was quickly washed away.

Their clothes had some cut marks. Their hair had been plastered to their scalps by the pouring rain giving them a dishevelled appearance.

Alex assessed whether Christina had some cut from the poisonous wound for his peace of mind and was happy on finding none.

“Where?”Christina asked.

“Some people didn’t know how to lie back. So, we should show them their position.” Alex pulled Christina up to his embrace and his figure floated in the air and flew straight through the sky.

Christina stared at Alex’s expression which expressed as if this man was going to war.

…

A dishevelled figure dashed past the dense canopy trying to flee as far as possible.

He was soaked in blood which was being washed by the droplets of rain.

He gritted his teeth to suppress the pain but today’s defeat marks another humiliation. Even if he was able to live past today, a shadow would have been left in his heart.

He had already resigned to his fate and thought that since he had no way out after killing Christina, at least seeing Alex crying tears of blood would at least soothe his heart.

But who knew that the girl would be so fierce and almost chop off his remaining arms?

It wasn’t that she was formidable, rather losing his hand had messed up his balance and since he had been in poor condition without any combat training, his condition wasn’t good for battle.

He might overpower others with his rank but before Christina who had superior combat prowess, vast experience and tacit understanding, he wasn’t even able to hold himself.

At the sight of death, his heart finally trembled in fear but as he noticed the situation on the other side, a hope germinated in his heart.

Alex and Christina had almost killed the black-robed figures sent by that man.

Angus knew that he would be killed by them if he were to survive but since all of them were killed there was no one to restrict him.

In that case, he thought of escaping with his life and hiding somewhere.

He swears not to provoke anyone and lays low.

But little did he know, that the decree of death had already been issued and this time there was no way for him to back out and the messenger was already hurling his way towards him.
