The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess

Chapter 601  Chapter 598:I Am Not Sure

Alex stared at the heaps of paper placed around the table with deadpan eyes and then looked at Catherine resting her head on his shoulder and giving him a playful smile.

"Catherine, this isn't fair," Alex grumbled.

"Then, you dumping your work on me and then playing around is fair," Catherine asked.

"What do you mean playing around? I have gone there to save Riya?"

"As per my calculation, it should have taken two months but what are you doing for seven months?"Catherine's eyes gleamed dangerously, seeing Alex swallow his saliva.

What can he say? He was lazing around in hell and heaven.

It was then the door creaked, and Christina entered with a blank expression.

"Should I come later?"Christina muttered, stepping back but Alex didn't let her go.

"Now, you came at the perfect time."Alex's image flickered and appeared behind Christina.

Without wasting time, he wrapped his hands around her waist and snuggled his face into her shoulder.

Sniffing her pleasant smell, Alex muttered in a hoarse voice" I missed you."

Christina's body froze for a moment. Raising her hand, she caressed Alex's hair and answered, "I missed you too."

Catherine's eyes narrowed seeing their interaction. If it was anyone else they would have blushed or embarrassed getting hugged out of nowhere but for Christina, it was always the same.

Except for her ears turning red, her face still had an indifferent expression.

'This is what happens when a child undergoes difficult times and doesn't grow up emotionally.'

Taking Christina back, he made her sit in the office.

"How have you been? Did you encounter any difficulty while looking over the militia?"Alex asked.

"No, everything is well until your recent notice. The soldiers are in panic wondering if there is a huge threat."

"Alex, we need to sort things quickly. Once it spread to everyone, there would be mass panic. We need to calm them down."Catherine suggested.

"Hmm!"

"By the way, Alex, please answer my question truthfully."Christina's crystal clear golden eyes looked straight at Alex.

"What is it?"

"What are your chances of defeating God of Darkness?"Christina asked.

As soon as her words fell, the room was shrouded by deathly silence for a moment.

Alex took up a moment to clear his thoughts and wondered how to reply.

"To tell you the truth, I don't know. I don't even know the full extent of my power."Alex replied truthfully.

His way to this stage was quite unconventional. Gods are created by the power of faith and belief but he didn't reach here by devouring others' faith but rather by training and hard work.

His situation can be compared to a person who can't use mana. Just because one can't use mana doesn't mean he doesn't get stronger.

Even a normal human who is weak can lift hundreds of kgs through training and run faster by practice. However, your physique plays a vital role in this. Similarly in this world, people could train to make their bodies stronger through body cultivation techniques and the level they can reach depends on their potential.

That means if you have low potential, you are duped and a breakthrough would be quite hard for you. That's what made Alex different.

Being a son of the Queen Goddess, he had limitless potential and the heaven-endowed physique that had been nourished for years since he was in the womb.

So, he was able to reach here through training. His rapid growth in the early years had become stagnant later and he only made a breakthrough after fighting in Hell's judgement.

"This is my main problem now. I don't know if I can get stronger by training.Maybe I can but who knows how many hundreds of years or maybe thousands of years it will take. The other option is my other body. The breakthrough to 10-Star may help us to get past this hurdle but there is no guarantee in it. The best way for me to muttered with a sudden realisation.

advance is to fight opponents of my level."Alex spoke with a bitter smile.

"And you don't have any opponents of your level," Christina muttered with a sudden realisation.

"You talked about other worlds so why don't you look in other worlds, particularly the one occupied by the God Of Darkness," Catherine suggested.

"I was also thinking the same because the Goddesses stopped me. If we anger that bastard unnecessarily, who knows how he will react? That's why they asked me to first prepare things well and then look for trouble."Alex spoke shaking his head.

There was also a third way but like others nothing is certain.

"That means the only way for you to be certain is to use the Power of Faith. If you take all the Power of Faith of other Goddesses you can surely break through into God King's realm, huh!''Catherine raised her chin with curiosity.

"That's feasible but that would bring more trouble afterwards. If I become a God King, I have to take over the world and sit like a statue instead of a mother."

"And you would never do that."Christina smiled.

"Not in seven hells," Alex replied.

"At least we have a way. It is good to think of countermeasures."Catherine murmured nodding her head.

Alex chatted a bit, suddenly remembered something and asked"By the way how are things in Leonhart, who is overseeing the things there?"

Catherine gave Alex a bewildered look and spoke with a pale expression"I have forgotten about it."

"What?"Alex screamed in panic.

"Really?''

"No, I am kidding."Catherine chuckled seeing Alex's tense expression.

"Highness Sean has retired to Leonhart and is looking after it for us."

"That's good."Alex rubbed his chin and suggested, "I am thinking of making Brother Sean a duke."

"Even if they don't carry my flesh and blood, there is no need to treat them badly. We can't keep them hanging. Let's give them some titles."

Catherine agreed to his proposal.

"Alex, I forgot to tell you something. Uncle Morderk had retired."Christina muttered softly but the words reverberated like thunder in his ears.
