The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess-Novel

Chapter 606 603:Undercurrents

Alex stared at the report with a scrutinising gaze. Things have been quite chaotic recently and if he doesn't manage well, the common people will be the ones who would suffer greatly.

Tapping on the table, Alex smiled.

"The bandits must have a lot of amassed wealth, don't they?"

As soon as Alex's words fell, the surrounding atmosphere became cold.

Solanar who was assisting him just kept mum and stepped back meanwhile Christina just stared at him blankly.

"You are already an Emperor and already so rich so why are you making that greedy expression?"Christina grumbled.

"Tsk!"

"That's not my money. Most of them are people's money. My private collection had been spent too much. I need to amass private wealth so that I can laze around happily in my retirement."

"You might be the first Emperor in the history of the world who is more concerned with retirement than keeping power?''Catherine spoke with an indifferent experience.

She had heard the same words so much that her ears had become numb. Every time Alex would work with her, he would cry and act as if wronged for being forcefully put on the throne.

And yes, recently she also seems to be infected by this to the point she also felt cumbersome in dealing with the affair.

"Your Majesty, bandits and the rebel forces are easier to deal with but clearing Clex city is close to impossible. All the nobles had a hand in it. We can't disrupt it."Solanar suggested.

"No, we have to," Alex spoke sternly.

"Clex city might have been useful before but now it's a cancer. We have eliminated the Omen but I am damn sure that some of them might be still living here and there. They are like cockroaches that survive until the bitter end and on top of that I don't want to have a City of Crime under my name."Alex stayed adamant.

"Send a notice to the City of Clex. Ask them to submit and those who don't have any criminal record ask them to disperse. Transfer the worker class somewhere. Compensate them if they suffer loss and if they have life in their house. After we take care of it, they can come back later."

"Are you giving them a chance?"Christina asked.

"Everyone deserves a chance. However, what will happen in the end is another matter. Give them two days. Ask Riya to move the shadow forces and bring me all the news of the movement. I don't want a single criminal who commits crime and atrocities to escape."

"Are you going there personally?"Catherine asked.

"Yes!"

"As expected," Catherine spoke with a sigh and waved his hand.

Solanar got the order and went back to prepare.

As soon as Solanar went out, Alex's senses screamed suddenly and raising his chin, he saw Christina and Catheirne's icy cold expressions as if they were going to devour him.

"What happened?"Alex asked with a panicked expression.

"I heard a honeybee come to look for her flower."

"Which honey? Which bee?"

"Christina, it seems our husband is a bit naive. We should teach him properly?"Catherine spoke coldly.

"Yeah!"Christina nodded.

After that a highly confidential meeting took place and loud voices rang out.

..........

"Something bad is about to happen?"A man's face filled with wrinkles spoke solemnly.

"Leader, there has been a lot of distress lately. We haven't received any commotion for a week. The situation is not in our favour. If this goes on we have to disband."His subordinate spoke with a saddened expression.

"Moreover, the Empire wanted to clean up the underground forces and a large military was dispatched. We are deep in trouble. What are we going to do now?"

"Should we surrender to the outside force who wanted to rebel? Even if we lose a bit, we will not be swallowed by the Empire forces."

"No need."The man spoke and pulled an envelope from his pocket.

"We received a letter from that man."

"That man..."

"Are you referring to him?"

As soon as his words fell, they remembered the black-haired man with red eyes appearing here and beating the shit out of them, making them cry and beg for forgiveness.

"Don't forget he is our liege now. His words are law and he asked us to help them. Moreover, he promised us the benefits that we may secure if we surrender early."

The man closed his eyes remembering about the humiliation and stared at the slave mark. From that Wolf gang mercenary and Woofer their head became his men.

"All of you prepare yourself. We are asked to meet him outside the City.''

"Yes, leader!"His subordinates screamed.

As they left, Woofer stared up with a reminiscent look" Just how strong have you become now?"

.........

In the meeting room, a deep silence reigned for a moment.

All the important forces of the black market gathered here.

The President of the Association stared at the letter and asked everyone.

"We have received an Imperial Decree to change our way. We can't sell stolen goods or provide a place for evil-doers to stay and also there is a ban on auctioning slaves."

The situation was quite grim.

"We can't accept this. The ones who benefited the most are the nobles and royal family. Now that they had no use for us, are they discarding us?"A man shouted.

"No, it's because they know our value, they are not eliminating us. Otherwise, if they used all the forces, do you think they can't weep us."Vice President Ken spoke.

"Haa!Are still speaking in favour of those damned assholes."

"Yes, they are clearly treating us like garbage."

"How can they do this to us?"

Ken's lips twitched for a moment.

'Aren't we garbage who have hands in all kinds of shady deals.'

"The Empire is wiping out the internal threat before the world with the other world."A man spoke in favour.

"It's false."

"What if this is just a scheme?"

"What is the proof? They are just trying to amass more authority and power by doing this?"

The President raised his hand to calm down everyone.

"I think I have a solution. I have revived another request asking for cooperation."

Everyone quieted down after hearing his words.
