The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess - Chapter 461

Chapter 461:Troubling Uneasiness

Tap! Tap! Tap!

The sound of gentle footsteps broke the stillness of the night.

With a stifling expression, Christina walked with a blank expression. Countless thoughts appeared in her mind which weighed her down.

Walking forward, she arrived before the temporally built Church.

She glanced at it with an uneasy expression. Athena had departed early and it was said she had confined herself here for the last four days for unknown ease.

Christina arrived yesterday and she had been too busy till now. So, after finishing her tasks, she decided to stop by.

Two legendary rank paladins stood at the door and stopped Christina.

“Lady Athena had asked us to deny entry to anyone.”

“That…Can you send her a message about my arrival?”

The paladins stared at each other with confusion for a moment. They knew the relationship between the both but Athena had given orders to stop anyone from approaching her.

“Lady Christina, we can’t do that Lady Athena’s orders are absolute.”

Christina sighed and was about to step back when they heard a voice from inside.

“Let her enter.”

Christina felt the voice was unusual and after getting the confirmation, he opened the door to enter.

The doors were shot with a slam.

The hall inside was quite dim.

Christina ran her eyes and found Athena sitting on the stairs before the Goddess statue with a pale expression.

Christina panicked seeing her state and ran towards her with a scream”Athena why are you in this state?”

“Did someone attack you?”

“Are you unwell?”

Christina called her name and pulled her up.

Athena stared at Christina with a blank expression and muttered”Christina, I am feeling a bit uneasy recently as if something bad is going to happen.”

Christina frowned and her hands holding Athena trembled a bit.

The words muttered by Athena’s lips were not a matter of joke and on top of that, she had never seen such a depressed look on Athena’s face.

Athena always had an intuition about what was going to happen, still, her expression had never faltered and she had always had that strong, reliable look that had always supported them.

But seeing her helpless state, Christina felt a lump of words choked in her throat.

“Athena, what is going on?”

Athens’s gaze tilted and fell on the Goddess Rebecca statue.

“Every time I feel uneasy I pray to Goddess.”

“When I dedicate myself to Goddess, my heart soothes and cools down. It was as if she was telling me not to worry and leave everything to nature to take its course.”

“But this time…I didn’t feel like this. My prayers aren’t being answered. The connection that I have always felt with her seemed to be diminishing.”

Christina’s heart hastened and a sense of urgency reflected in her eyes.

“Is she abandoning you or is the power of divinity inside you decreasing?”

“No, rather I feel she is avoiding this time. It’s as if even if she doesn’t know what is going to happen or maybe there is something else.”Athena murmured and hugged Christina showing a vulnerable side that she had never shown anyone.

Her body instinctively searched for warmth and the back of the man who always stood before her resurfaced in her mind.

“Alex. I hope you come back soon. I…no, we need you.”

A helpless tone reverberated in the empty voice filled with uneasiness.

…..

Horse hooves mercilessly stepped on the dirt that was slowly starting to dry after the rain.

The procession of horses led by the cavalry along with soldiers formed deep hoof indentations on the ground.

The sunlight glittered on the spears that were pointed towards the sky, and the winds made the flags flutter aggressively. It was an enormous army filled with shining Knights in armour that appeared in the childish dreams of many.

Fully armoured soldiers armed with various weapons moved along the path without stopping, and they formed the formation along borders without hesitation.

The demon’s invasion was in full swing. Even though one couldn’t see through the thick, miasma, you can spot a terrifying breath radiating from the place covered with a dark mist

Athena stood in the very front, and he tightly clutched her staff and looked around with a cold face that was overflowing with confidence.

No look of helplessness was seen the day before. All that remained was a strong being whose presence in itself made one aware of the existence of the Goddess blessing who had sent such an angel down to the world.

Beside her, stood the current Saintess of Kinley, Ophelia but she knew that she was Saintess only in name and the one who would exert strong influence was none other than Athena.

And then there was Lina.

Even though she was smiling, she was swearing while staring at Athena.

Her beautiful appearance hides a venomous tongue inside.

‘Just for how long do I have to take orders from this bitch. I hope she dies here.’

Athena stepped forward and recited the prayer.

The priests and the clergy that stood behind her recited the words spoken by her.

“Goddess, please bestow us the power to face the crisis and walk on the arduous path without stepping back. Please watch the steps of these gentle lambs who have stepped forward to carry your will and bring glory to the world which sings the praise of your presence.”

“Amen!”

Athena’s eyes glowed and her hair stood up and fluttered giving an unearthly glow raising her staff she hit it on the ground.

The jewel embedded on the top of the staff emitted a golden glow along with every Priest that stood behind her and then a warm light engulfed and started to radiate all around.

Swoosh!Swoosh!

The golden light spread like a shockwave and hit the dark mist of miasma blowing it away and dispersing it into nothingness.

While all this was happening, Sean stepped forward and shouted”Knights stepped ahead maintaining the formation.”

“Draw out your weapons and prepare to engage.”

“Don’t rush deep. First, to observe your enemies.”

Sean was a veteran of war so he knew the danger that lies ahead.

The other side may attack them as soon as their cover is gone. So, it was best to strike first.

Soon, the cover was blown and the images of enemies resurfaced which caused Sean to halt his track.

Thousands of dark red eyes lit up behind the dark veil.

Cause before him lay an army of monsters who were waiting to go rampage.
