Alex’s heartbeat hastened as he saw the familiar yet unfamiliar figure in the painting.
Alex already had a hunch when he saw the sorcerer posing as Catherine but he had kept it at the back of his mind at that ti.
He didn’t even want to think of that possibility but no matter what he does, he can’t run away from it now.
Now when he saw the picture of Catherine, he could see the minute similarities between Catherine and her which he could identify just with a single glance.
Her face accompanied by those cold eyes and icy expression are similar to Ava’s except for the colour of the hair and the eyebrows.
“Avaaaa!!” Alex muttered while sliding his hand through the pictures.
Alex rolled the paper carefully and started to think about it.
“Did the Goddess know about it from before and kept it hidden from purposely, “Alex muttered while rubbing his forehead.
“No, that’s not it.”
Alex rembered certain mories where after being beaten up quite badly and being bored due to daily training, he told them about the modern appliance which could shake away the boredom.
He could recall the Goddess’s expression when they heard his words and felt that they had been struck by thunder.
Though Goddesses might be all-knowing and can look into the past, they can only see the scenes and mories of this world.
They can’t pry into the mories of his previous life as they are bonded by the will of the world and they can’t see anyone’s previous life mories.
They were even frightened of his soul being extinguished by the will of the world if he was found carrying mories of two lives which is seriously taboo and his existence shouldn’t be allowed to exist as it is against the law.
So, since they knew nothing about his previous life, they shouldn’t know about Catherine either.
“Still, it’s quite coincidental, or is it arranged by so dogshit fate.”
“Whatever may be, this is only making angrier.”
“Goddamnit!!”Alex roared at his uselessness.
In his first life, Ava died worthlessly and in this second life, if by any chance Catherine is the reincarnation of Ava then even in this life, he failed to protect her loved ones.
Alex gritted his teeth as he felt the helplessness of not being able to do anything when his wife was being taken away by those assholes.
“Should I infiltrate Amidon and try to save her,” Alex muttered but shook his head.
After all, this was nothing but suicide.
Unless he does sothing taboo or forbidden to raise his power, there is no way he can defeat Amidon’s forces by himself.
Moreover, Amidon had 11 Pseudo Epic ranks and who knows how many more variables are present there.
“I don’t know how Goddess can allow this to happen. What if sothing bad happens to Catherine.”
“Those useless Goddess….Damn it!!”
Alex took deep breaths trying to calm himself down.
This was all a long-term ga from Amidon’s side or maybe even Amidon is just a chess piece of soone else’s as there is no way Amidon could pull out so many tricks by itself even though it is a Tier 5 vassal Kingdom.
“Alex, are you alright?” Alex heard the voice of Christina and turned back to see Christina and Longard standing behind him.
“When did you arrive?” Alex asked.
“We have arrived quite earlier but you seem to be lost in thoughts for a while,” Christina replied.
“I see,” Alex muttered while rubbing his forehead.
“How much ti will it take for Riya and others to arrive?” Alex asked.
“It would take two to three days from tomorrow for them to arrive if nothing goes wrong in the way,” Christina replied.
“Hmmm!”Alex rubbed his chin and pondered for a mont.
“Uncle Longard!!Please sit down. I wanted to ask you about sothing.”
Longard nodded and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He was afraid of Alex. He was getting goosebumps all over his skin when Alex’s gaze fell on him.
This guy looked like a monster when he beca angry.
As everyone sat down, Alex interlaced his fingers pondering for a mont and spoke.
“Uncle Longard, tell why Kinley attacked Wright?”
“I don’t understand what grudge it has for destroying one of its growing states so brutally.”
“I tried to look into it but everything seed to be useless. So, I want to know the real reason for attacking Wright.”
“Your Majesty, you can’t find out about this even if you search like hell cause in Wright only two people knew about it.”
“ and Her Highness.”
“I am not sure about the other side but except the Emperor, only his trusted aid and followers might know about it.”
Alex nodded his head and asked Longard to continue.
“Your Highness, you might know that every Kingdom had its artifact or family heirloom.”
Alex raised his brows on hearing Longard’s words. Even his Nevan had an artifact but what artifact did Wright have to attract so much attention that so even the Emperor directly stord here.
“You see, the artifact of Wright was sothing special. It had been lying in the treasury for centuries without any use until it reacted to Her Highness Catherine.”
“Ohh!! Catherine was the only one who could activate it.” Alex muttered, rubbing his chin.
“You see, the artifact we had was not sothing ordinary Kingdoms should have. Our artifact was a legendary grade artefact.”
Alex and Christina’s expressions changed and both of them were startled by the sudden revelation.
“Legendary Grade,” Christina muttered and closed her mouth with her palms due to shock.
“You are shocked by the grade but it was nothing compared to the way it works,” Longard said.
“It was a defensive artefact that can cast a shield in a wide area which cannot be broken by anyone below Mythic rank.”
Alex swallowed his saliva and facepald hearing the details with a stunned expression.
“Uncle Longard, are you kidding ?”
