The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess

267 Chapter 267

Alex who was described as a murderer tried to hold back his laughter after hearing Riya’s image in Jeremy’s heart.

“Pffttt”

He hadn’t thought that someone would have the same thought as him but was even brave enough to say that on Riya’s face directly.

Riya may look like a harmless, sweet and cute kitty but this kitty’s claws were quite sharp.

Alex stopped his laugh as Riya was already glaring at him and might run after him to bite him.

“Hey, Riya, this guy is more out of the world than me?”

Alex looked at Jeremy and said, “Have you not heard about the famous tales of the imbecile Fifth Prince of Kinley?”

Jeremy stared at Alex with eyes filled with disbelief. His body twitched as if someone just gave him a lightning shock.

“You mean to say that you are the Fifth Prince of Kinley but why have I not heard that you have enrolled in the Academy.” Jeremy scratched his cheek with an embarrassed look.

“It hadn’t been a week since we enrolled and you are an oddball loner who had been cast aside so who is going to tell you all this?”

Jeremy felt that he had been hurt by the sharp comments.

“Do you still want to silence me?” Alex smirked.

“No, no. I was just kidding but please don’t leak this secret of mine.”

“We are on the same boat, you also cannot sell us out,” Alex spoke, raising his hand.

“From now on, you are my lackey.”

“Huh! When did I agree to that?”Jeremy asked.

” Listen, everyone, Jeremy had a…”Before Alex could shout.

Jeremy shakes Alex’s hand and says”Boss, please take care of me.”

“Under my shadow, there would be no one who can hurt you.”Alex smiled.

Jeremy resigned to his bitter faith.

…

Professor Neon took the class and after finishing the lecture, he spoke” I have an important announcement for you all.”

Alex snapped his eyes open and rubbed his eyes.

Small dark circles were already forming under his eyes. The last few days were quite hard for him as he had little time to rest.

Alex focused his attention on Neon’s speech after witnessing the atmosphere of the entire classroom.

Each of them seemed to be dead serious as if this was a matter of life and death.

“Ten days from now, The Monster Hunt Test is going to commence.”

All the students sucked in deep breaths on hearing the announcement.

Some students were excited about it while others shrink in fear as if this was a terrible Nightmare.

Neon observed everyone’s emotions and sighed.

Each year there would be Monster Hunt where all the students had to participate.

There were points for killing monsters according to rank and the winner who scored the most points would be rewarded with a gift.

The prospect may be good but each year many lose their lives due to the test. It was a trial of courage and perseverance.

Professor Neon explained the ins and outs and said”You can form a team or hunt solo.”

“If you form a team, it shouldn’t be more than five members.”

“The raid would continue for three days and this time you are assigned to the Gwaffin region in the Western Territory of Kinley.”

“So, everyone please start preparing for the hunt and remember one thing.”

“Your lives are more important than glory. If you find an opponent, you can’t take head-on then there is no shame in retreating.” Professor Neon started to give advice and warnings to everyone.

Alex came to know that last year, seven lost their lives even though they were in the beginning zone of the forest where only squire-ranked monsters were found so Professor Neon was worried about everyone’s safety.

Alex didn’t know whether training by hunting monsters in such a way was a good or bad thing.

Before graduating all of them need to temper their minds and get used to killing, otherwise, everyone would be like Jeremy who is knocked out easily with murderous intent even though he was fairly strong.

Alex, who got up from his seat, rolled his eyes at the corner of the class to see Joey sitting alone.

He was already thrown out of the group by his classmates.

All those who used to surround him and fawn over him licking his boots were now trying to keep their distance from him.

He had become a topic of joke after losing in such a manner.

Alex used tricky spells that cannot be classified in tiers and mostly depend on the user’s strength so everyone assumed that Joey was knocked down by low basic tier spells which damaged his reputation further.

And the commencement of Monster Hunt now was like rubbing salt over his wound.

Joey had high potential and was quite a good magician and has a bright future ahead if he could fix his attitude and outlook.

He seriously needs Attitudinal Adjustment and Alex had tried to do that by saying all those things in Infirmary.

Alex found him as a potential candidate to befriend and that’s also one of the reasons Alex had gone easy on him.

“Joey, let’s see what you are going to do now.”

“Are you going to be broken down and take the wrong path or pull yourself from despair and shine gloriously?”

“Everything is in your hands.”

“What are you thinking?”

Alex heard Riya’s alluring voice and turned his head.

“You are growing more beautiful day by day, Riya. I may have a heart attack if this goes on.” Alex spoke, clutching his chest.

“Stop it. We are in the classroom.” Riya spoke with a shy expression. Her cheek reddened a bit on hearing Alex’s flattery.

“Answer my question,” Riya spoke after recomposing herself.

“I think we may have another ally before or after the Monster Hunt if everything goes alright.”

Alex spoke and stared at Joey who seemed to be worried and quite out of place which gave one expression that he had lost something precious.
