The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess

It took a hell of an effort for Alex to calm down Riya who seemed to be throwing tantrums like a child.

Alex, at the end of the day, had to ask forgiveness like a child who had done something wrong only to know later that Riya was just acting and teasing him.

Alex didn't know when Riya had developed such a playful nature or if she was just jealous and tried to show it playfully but Alex started to realise one thing which is Riya seemed to have an inferiority complex.

The more time he spent with Riya, the more he figured that Riya thought of herself as inferior when compared to his other wives.

It may be due to her childhood hardships or the way she had grown up but she was really worried about her status.

Cause she knew very well that at the end of the day she was just a maid of Alex and the title of Shadow Queen was just an honorific given to her.

But it had been years since she had appeared and most people might have already forgotten about her.

Moreover, it's not as if the world particularly knew that the Shadow queen was Alex's maid Riya.

All of Alex's other wives had a higher and nobler position than Riya.

She knew that she could always stand on Alex's side but at the end of the day, Riya standing on his side may not be acceptable to society due to her lower position as a maid.

Moreover, Alex couldn't make Riya the Queen of Nevan because of Catherine.ᴘᴀ ɴ ᴅᴀ n ᴏ ᴠᴇʟ </ins></ins>

He didn't know who came up with the idea in the documents but in the treaty documents of the conjoint functioning of Nevan and Wright, only Catherine could have the title of Queen.

That's why Alex planned on expanding the secret organisation and spreading The fear of Shadow Queen once again.

Who with the Epic rank was able to slay transcendent realm when she worked as an assassin and could even charm a legendary rank if she goes all out.

At first, it may look gibberish but Alex knew that if Riya used her max charm even Saint would lose his sense for a moment.

So using her power, it wouldn't be weird for Riya to slay the stronger powerhouse.

...

In The Meeting Room.

Alex leaned on the chair while folding his legs and waiting for the reply.

Sitting in front of him was David of the merchant association.

He was flipping the pages of the blueprints that had been made by Alex. pᴀɴda nᴏvel </ins></ins>

Alex wanted to expand his resources and make a merchant ground under his wing that could even rival the wealthiest merchant group in Kinley which was his wife Yvonne Merchant's group.

Alex had already made several arrangements to lead the economy of Nevan.

David flipped the pages and was utterly astonished by the things written in them which if exposed could lead to major changes throughout the whole world.

Just to see this book, he had to make a mana oath and any disobedience of the oath could instantly kill him.

In the first part was the idea of new clothes for both men and women which looked quite stylish for the current generation.

Alex had already seen and noted many things about this world.

The thing he could use was to make a revolution in clothes and create a fashion hub of his own and spread it around the whole Kinley Empire.

On the second page was information about opening public acting centres to perform concerts of musicians and find actors to perform the play.

The third was the idea of mechanical gears which he would use to create cycles.

On fourth were various interesting delicacies which can be used as short snakes which would be liked by the nobles. </ins></ins>

David looked at the plans and wiped off his sweat.

The plan was much grander than he expected and it was detailed also.

Seeing David sweating hard, Alex offered him a drink.

ραꪒⅆα-ꪒꪫꪥꫀ​ꪶ​ David took a sip and felt a refreshing feeling and looked at Alex with surprise.

"Your Highness, what is this drink? It feels quite refreshing."

"It's ice coffee. Just one sip of it and you feel a cooling sensation all over your body." Alex chuckled while thinking inwardly.

'If this world has a refrigerator then he would have already made ice cream and started selling but since he hadn't, he had to create ice by magic and it's not as if he could hire a mage to make ice.'

"Your Highness, why don't you give us the recipe to sell it also," David asked with excitement as he felt that something like this will be quite pleasing to the noble.

"It's already in the plan David," Alex spoke and pointed at David to open the last page.

David opened it and grasped it with amazement as he saw the blueprint of a restaurant. </ins></ins>

"Your Highness, do you also want to put your hand in the gourmet business?"

Alex nodded while David studied it carefully and then spoke"Your Highness, this plan is not feasible for now."

Alex raised his brow with a questioning look while David explained further"Your Highness! You must have already known about noble nature. They will not take a single step in a place which they find beneath their stature."

"The idea of the restaurant is quite amazing but the cost to build a place like that we need tons of investment."

"And currently we really can't afford this much, no matter how much your proposal guarantees the returns."

Alex nodded and spoke, "I know about that from the beginning."

"That's why I wanted to borrow someone else's knife to cut the meat."

David burrows furrowed on hearing Alex's words and he wondered, 'Knife, meat. How did these things come in between?'

Still, he shook his head and asked"Whose knife do you want to borrow to butcher the meat."

Alex smirked, seeing which one can guess that something rotten was going on inside his head. </ins></ins>

"We will borrow the Lockheart's knife."

David, who was drinking ice coffee, almost spewed it on Alex and coughed violently.

"Hey, don't be surprised. We will just ask for investment and also we will create a fake alias."

Alex and David were about to discuss more when Alex heard a snapping sound of the opening of doors and Mordek came running.

"Uncle Mordek what is this behaviour?" Alex spoke with a stern voice.

Though he wasn't angry at such a sudden intrusion still at least he had to act like this to maintain his image and dignity as the king, otherwise, everyone might think of him as soft rice.

Mordek took a moment to catch his breath and spoke"Your Highness, we have a problem."

Alex frowned and wondered what could have happened for Mordek to behave like this.

"Uncle Mordek, you are going to be punished if I don't find the reason for your intrusion to my liking."

Mordek nodded on hearing Alex's words and said"Your Highness, The war between Amidon and Wright had officially started."

The words rang like thunder in David's ears and he looked at Alex who still had a blank expression on his face from which one couldn't guess what he was thinking.

'So, it already started.'Alex muttered inwardly while taking a heavy sigh.
