The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess-Novel

“Haaa…haa.”

Alex gasped heavily trying to breathe in as he felt a little bit of restlessness.

His throat felt dry and he tried to open his lips which seemed to be stuck together like glue.

His eyelids felt heavy as he tried to lift them to see where he was and what was going on.

Alex looked blankly at his surroundings almost as if he had awoken after a long dream. The blurry vision was blinding and painful for him.

He can feel the exhaustion eroding his whole body and a single movement of his muscles brought him an onslaught of pain.

He felt as if his body was tearing up. In fact, he wasn’t able to lift a single finger which made him realize how powerless he had become.

“That Devil bastard.”

“Devil is not evil. My foot.”

When The Devil taught him black magic and forbidden spells, he clearly said that the repercussions and aftermath weren’t great and would just take a toll on him.

But the pain was overwhelming. He lied about this._.

“I shouldn’t believe in him. The mythological description of him was true.” Alex muttered.

His vision was still murky making it hard to see his surroundings.

‘System, why is my body in a pathetic state? Since I have a goddess blessing and have a higher healing rate shouldn’t my body be fine till now?’

[Host, the blessings are being blocked for now. There is still lingering demonic energy in your body. If the blessings started to work now it will cause more harm instead of giving you benefit.]

‘I see.’

‘Then I have to lay down on the bed like a patient for a few days.’

[It seems like that Host. You should cherish this once in a Blue Moon opportunity to take some rest. Moreover with godly wives by your side, it seems like the gains from the risk you have taken are too good.]

‘Huh’ 

‘What do you mean by that?’Alex asked but he didn’t get any answers.

After lying for a while his vision started to recover and his eyesight started to become clearer. Though his focus was still blurry it was better than nothing.

The way things went on, Alex even thought for a moment that constant use of Devil Eye may one day blind his vision so he needed to be careful in the future.

Alex just closed his eyes, wanting his head to blank. Resting once in a while wasn’t something bad. He still feels exhaustion all over his body.

Alex didn’t know how much time had passed but he woke up as he felt soft delicate touch.

Alex’s brows furrowed and before he could open his eyes, a shiver ran throughout his body as he felt the soft touch of a hand caressing his body.

Alex took a peek to see Riya unbuttoning his upper clothes.

‘Riya, what are you doing?’Alex muttered inwardly with sweat all over his body.

Riya, oblivious to Alex’s notion, carried on her work while humming a song.

‘Why is she so happy while undressing me?’

‘No, don’t tell me Riya is going to take advantage.’

‘No, my sweet innocent Riya is not that type of girl.’

Alex’s thoughts ran wild while Riya had almost undressed Alex leaving behind his pants.

But contrary to Alex’s thoughts, Riya took out a towel soaked in water and started to wipe Alex’s body.

Alex sighed in relief seeing Riya working hard.

Sniff…Sniff.

‘Riya you are the best.’Alex gave a thumbs up though his face became red due to embarrassment.

CLICK!

Alex heard a loud metallic sound of opening the door.

He opened his eyelid to take a peek to see Catherine coming toward him with a bowl in her hand.

‘What is she doing here? Riya dress me.’Alex wanted to scream after feeling Catherine’s gaze.

Moreover, seeing the bowl of soup in Catherine’s hand and Riya’s behavior he felt as if these two had already made Amidon their playground.

‘Did they already settle things?’

“Catherine, tell me.”

“Isn’t our hubby’s body the best,” Riya spoke in a coquettish tone while observing Alex’s body.

Catherine hearing Riya’s words just glared at her though one can see the red tint on her ears and there was a slight blush on her face while she took a glance at Alex.

“Riya stop your ploy. Quickly dress him up or he is going to get a cold.” Catherine spoke with a cold tone.

“We have such a godly husband and you all girls don’t care,” Riya spoke faintly with a pout.

“What did you say?” Catherine asked with a piercing gaze.

“Nothing!” Riya dressed Alex and Catherine pulled a seat and sat beside Alex.

She frowned as she looked at Alex’s face which was red as a tomato.

“Riya, see due to your carelessness Alex had caught the fever. His face had become red due to the fever.” Catherine complained and put her hand on Alex’s forehead and she raised her brows.

“What let me see?” Riya spoke with a panicked expression.

“No, let me take care of him. You go and watch over those fools.”Catherine spoke and pushed Riya out of the room

Catherine looked at Alex who seemed to be in deep sleep and observed him.

” I don’t know why I always get a sense of familiarity around you as if we have met before and knew each other very well, “Catherine said while taking a spoonful of soup and blowing the air to cool it down a little.

” I heard from others about your ventures. They also said how you rushed here to save me.”

“Honestly, I wasn’t able to believe their words. But after seeing you that day I can say that you are quite a capable person.”

Catherine, after cooling down the spoonful of soup, brought it near Alex’s lips and said”Before you were an idiot and I thought of Nevan as an opportunity to strengthen Wright and take it to a higher level.”

“But now since you have recovered, I don’t know how to handle things.”

“So, my husband Alex since you are already awake why don’t you answer some of my questions,” Catherine spoke with a smirk startling Alex.
