The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess

269 Chapter 269

Alex walked out of the classroom and stretched his back.

“Haaa…I have some free time today.”

Alex took a deep breath filled with the sweet scent of flowers carried by a gentle breeze while looking at the sun over the top.

The climate of the capital was quite soothing, it was neither too hot nor too cold.

“Riya must be practising in an embroidery class now. I don’t know why she was so fixated on this course. I shouldn’t disturb her.”

“I should finish the second volume of physics and the first volume of chemistry. Before that, I should copy the library book on Articulation Of Magic Wonder.” Alex muttered, rubbing his chin.

As Alex walked toward the library, he was greeted by one of the guards who looked for him hurriedly.

Alex saw a guard drenched in sweat as if he had just gone through a series of combat training.

Alex knew the man, who generally acts as a messenger.

“Hello, Mr Reed.”

“Hello, Alex. Someone is looking for you.”

“Would you go outside or ask them to come in?” He asked.

“Who is looking for me?” Alex asked.

He didn’t remember anyone who knew him well enough to visit him. He needs to know the identity of the person to decide whether he had to go outside or to ask him to come.

If it was someone whom he didn’t know prior, it was best to meet him on campus so the person cannot act against him if he had malicious intent.

Reed started to sweat profusely and looked reluctant to disclose the name.

“Just who is the person that even you are afraid of?”

Reed turned his head left to right, to see if someone was nearby them and whispered”It’s Princess Yvonne.”

“Ohhh!” Alex’s mouth let agape and before Reed could react, he pulled Reed and ran towards the gates.

The Prideful Goddess Of Wealth, had herself come to visit, this was quite a shock for him and it would be rude for him to make the Princess wait.

Alex’s eyes were almost blinded seeing the huge carriage outside the gates which was pulling too much attention.

The carriage was as big as a two-storey building and was pulled by twenty horses.

‘Did she need to show off and flaunt her wealth like this? Everyone knows about your wealth.’

‘Lockheart and Money are the opposite sides of the same coin.’

A man came and informed him that there is a big place in the carriage and Miss Yvonne is waiting for him in it.

Alex nodded and entered the carriage.

Alex entered the room which looked like a cafeteria and saw the red-haired beauty sitting at the table gracefully.

“Yvonne, what a surprise!”

“I know you cannot wait to see this handsome, dashing husband of yours but what’s the rush.” Alex chuckled.

Yvonne rolled her eyes and said, “I am too tired to argue with you.”

“I see, you are working too hard. In this case, let this husband of yours massage your shoulder. All your stiffness will go away like a fluke.” Alex muttered and had already rolled his sleeves.

“Stop! I am not tired. I have been brimming with energy. So stop in your tracks and sit down quietly.” Yvonne screamed in panic.

‘Massage, who knows just how much advantage you will take of me in the name of a simple massage .’

‘Hmphhh!’ Yvonne snorted.

Alex sat down with an amusing expression and spoke”Since you have come here that means you the matter is something important.”

“I came to deliver the potions and equipment.”

Alex blinked multiple times while looking for falsehood in her expression.

Alex had sent a letter to Yvonne asking for top-grade potions and some equipment. He wanted to prepare for the Monster Hunt well.

Since Jeremy was going to join them. He had to buy armour for him as the poor guy doesn’t have any but who knew that the Princess would come herself for the delivery?

The situation was a bit too much for him to digest.

‘Wait! Maybe she is really worried about my well-being and came here to visit me.’

‘Holy Moly! Sis Athena, it seems your guidance is working.’

Seeing Alex lost in thoughts, Yvonne felt that the man was thinking something bad and tapped on the table to wake him up.

“I don’t know what you are thinking but I didn’t care to deliver the things. Don’t think of me as your delivery man.”

Alex’s hopes were shattered like glass and gritting his teeth, he spoke”It’s a delivery woman, not a man unless you consider yourself….”

A thick vein bulged on her forehead and she started to run the Calming sutra by taking breathing in and breathing out.

She had already learnt the lesson, that you cannot win with words against this mad guy who was brave enough to blow the Castle gates.

“Listen, I have got some news about Gawaffin.”

Alex’s joking and playful expression vanished as if the previous expression was an illusion and his eyes became sharp with dead seriousness which even scared her.

‘This man changes expressions so fast that it can scare anyone. One moment, he would be laughing and in another, he would emit bone-chilling coldness.’

“There is some trouble going on in Gawaffin. According to the intel I have received, the undead have been spotted near there.”

“How did you know?”

“We provide supplies to the stronghold and there are also merchant routes in it., Yvonne explained.

“Undead, if there is such a serious situation why is the academy choosing that spot filled with trouble?”Alex asked.

” That hunting spot is only for the Second year and while other years have been allocated another hunting ground.”

“Now your admission into the academy and such a troublesome spot being selected are too much of a coincidence isn’t it,” Yvonne spoke curiously.

“Doesn’t the Professor know about it? Even if someone deliberately targets me, wasn’t the risk too huge? If there is a high-ranking undead, the casualties are gonna be too large and even the Professors may die.” Alex spoke while tapping on the armpit.

“Either they knew it and ignored the risk factor or someone is suppressing the information from reaching them.”Alex inferred.

“Be careful Alex and if you get the chance, you should back out if possible. There is no need to take so much risk.”Yvonne spoke with a worried expression.

Alex’s heart warmed seeing the anxiety in Yvonne’s tone.

“I can’t back out but I promise I will stay safe,” Alex said.

“My heart warmed up a little seeing you caring for me.”

“Blah! Who is worried about you? I am worried about Riya?”

“I don’t want anything bad happening to her in your company,” Yvonne spoke and denied with a flustered expression.

Alex shook his head and stood up.

His image was blurred instantly.

Yvonne was startled and before she could react, a pair of warm hands wrapped over her.

“I know Yvonne, you don’t like me and hate me to the gut but I promise that I will try to become a good husband whom you can be proud of and realise that marrying me was one of the best decisions that you have taken in your life, “

Yvonne wanted to speak but her body froze as Alex caressed her hair.

Her face flushed and her face started to heat up and she was unable to push him away.

At that time, Athena’s words rang in her ears which she used to tease me.

“You may pretend all you want but once you find yourself in his embrace, you are unable to let go of that warmth, that feeling of being cared for and protected by someone. You will one day become addicted to it.”

Yvonne shook his head and thought that Athena’s shameless words were messing up with her perception.

“In the future, we will have ample time to be lovey-dovey,” Alex said and planted a peck on her cheek.

Alex ran away as soon as he took advantage of her otherwise who knew he may be hit by a flying shoe?

Alex’s words baffled Yvonne but more than that, the soft gesture blew her mind.

Her face looked like a shy maiden and one even saw smoke rising from her head.

“Scoundrel, you only know to take advantage of me” Yvonne shouted and stomped her legs but even after that, unknowingly a small smile crept on her face much to her annoyance.

‘It’s not that I hate you..’ Yvonne muttered but her voice was as soft as a mosquito.
