The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess
Chapter 187: Alice DepartAt the time of Alex's visit to Zenith, the core of Kinley was about to approach and everyone was happily preparing for King's Alex ascension
All the people were working hard to level up the whole city making a city filled with splendour.
The military authority headed by Mordek and Prime Minister Bassie was incredibly busy coping with the upcoming military and political reform leaving no leaves unturned and giving their best to integrate the three kingdoms into one without causing more chaos.
The people of Amidon who had been traumatised under Angus's tyranny were quite happy with the new reforms but that didn't mean there was no problem.
Without the shade of bigger tyrants, smaller ones tried to lift their heads trying to usurp the current situation.
Thieves, bandits, black markets and drug dealers who lay hidden before started to take the portion of the market marking their area.
But those who tried to lift their head were crushed brutally under the jaws of the lion who displayed what tyranny was.
Alex personally took the matter of public safety into his hand and tried to eradicate all evil in society with his hand.
He knew better than anyone else that these people are like a cockroach who persists even if their head is cut.
Contrary to feeling frustrated, Alex was rather happy seeing many specimens who are eager for display in the showcase and will soon use it to set an example.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlex enacted a pole of shame in every named city and he hanged the people naked who have committed severe crimes and asked the people to enjoy the show by showering these people with their love by throwing eggs, dirt and shoes and many other things.
The citizens who had suffered from these people took out all of their bottled-up stress.
There were even cases where the criminal died due to an excessive beating.
This treatment was enough for the evil people to shrink their necks and hide in the shadows while washing their hands off and committing any crime.
Alex promoted the building of orphans and shelter homes for old age.
The children in orphans were given basic education while people in old age shelters can take part in learning some craftsmanship and spend their time in some useful recreational activity.
The crime and poverty rates started to decrease and the worth of Nevan started to rise.
Everyone put in an effort wanting to prepare for Alex's ceremony to show their gratitude.
Alex's performance had completely won the hearts of the people and they were more willing to accept the rule of a man who knows to repay kindness with kindness and blood with blood.
The wealthy ones contributed with money, and the strong contributed with labour while many merchants who entered Nevan tried to help by increasing trading and prosperity.
At the same time, many neighbouring countries sent their delegations to Nevan wanting to maintain a friendly relationship and discuss politics.
Even Alex was surprised by the sudden visit of envoys of the other Kingdom.
Though Nevan was rising quickly still it was just the first step and even after all reform, Nevan would still be in between Tier 4 and Tier 5.
There is still a long way to go as the main backbone of a Kingdom is its military strength and it can't be built in two or three months as quality and quantity still matter in this aspect.
With Amidon's addition and pouring resources while deducting the self-loss in the war, Nevan had an army of 20,000 on stand leaving the recruits who were still undergoing military screening so he was confused why all these folks rushed down here even though their kingdom Tier was higher than Nevan.
Alex only knew later that this was the result of an article published in a popular magazine in Kinley shaking the whole Kinley again where it greatly highlighted him.
[After 19 years of sleeping, the sleeping lion finally woke from its slumber. Amidon, who tried to poke its tail, finally got to know the meaning of getting caught in a Lion's jaw.]
[So, who was going to be the next prey of the King of predators? Will he reclaim his title and gain his lost glory or will he go back to sleep again? Only God knows what will happen next.]
Alex couldn't help but swear all day cursing the whole fourteen generations of that asshole writer who wrote such fiery things which might have provoked many. One can see that that guy was meaning the battle with the princes and tried to spice up things.
The only good point in that article was that he was called King of the beast.
Even in his world filled with dragons and other mythical creatures, the lion is still held as the King of beasts.
Lion is neither as strong as others nor is he fast nor is he the biggest creature in the world.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhether in his previous or this world, the only aspiring trait of the lion is being fearless. Even while fighting an opponent much stronger than itself, it will give it all and die with pride.
One doesn't need the strongest to be king, but rather a character filled with a little bit of everything starting from kindness to chivalry and decisiveness in proper proportion and Alex whose horoscope was Leo in his previous life can't help but feel a little proud about it.
This was also one of the reasons for taking in Leo after seeing him in such a pathetic state.
...
Outside the city gate, Alex stood with a saddened expression while holding Alice's hands.
"Can't you stay for a few more days after all we will be moving in four days" Alex muttered.
"Sorry Big Brother, I have to go before you. Don't worry we are going to meet soon." Alice spoke while hugging him gently.
Alice had already greeted his sister-in-law before parting.
With a reluctant expression, she got on the carriage and started to strode forward while waving to Alex with a cheerful expression.
Alex shaded some tears in a sorrowful manner seeing her lovely sister going away.
Alice who sat inside the carriage stared outside as her lips curved upwards with a sly smile.
"Big Brother you are too evil." She chucked.
