The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess

560 Chapter 557:Visiting Cold Palace Again



Enoch led Alex into the Cold Palace which he had visited before. 

The place was as desolate as before without anyone to take proper care of it. From Enoch, Alex got to know that his father spent most of the time here instead of People's Place.

"Why isn't this place taken care of properly if he stays here?"Alex asked.

"It's because no one is allowed to enter here. Except for the Emperor, you and a few others, none has ever entered this place."

"The Emperor doesn't like it if someone enters," Enoch answered respectfully.

Alex's brows furrowed and he just glanced around as Enoch led him to the inner chamber.

He passed through the empty gloomy hallway, where he had talked with his father.

Unlike the outer room, the inner was furnished and properly taken care of. There was proper lighting making it look warm and cosy.

Alex entered the study room and as soon as he stepped in his body froze.

Pointing at the photo framed with a diamond, Alex's heart tightened subconsciously.

"Who is she?"

Instead of answering Alex, Enoch falls to his knees bowing his head.

"This lowly servant greets Her Highness."

"Her Highness, after several years your son has returned."

Alex felt struck by lightning when he heard Enoch's words.

"What did you say?"Alex screamed.

"She is my mother..." Alex felt a lump stuck in his throat.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

"Your Highness, your mother was going to be Empress if not for the disaster striking her."

"His Highness loved her the most. She was the apple of his eye. And her death is a bit complicated. I don't even know about it but His Highness after that has never smiled happily."

"That's the reason why The Empress's position had been empty." 

Enoch then got up and pressed the wall after which a basement appeared leading down.

Alex stared at the stairs appearing leading down and then stared at his mother.

Walking forward he ran his finger through the frame.

There was a veiled woman with black hair in the picture. Her eyes were crimson colour and Alex could feel a beautiful smile underneath her veil.

"Mother..."

This was his biological mother who gave birth to him. It would be wrong if he said he did not feel any attachments. It may feel weird that he has a lingering feeling about a person whom he had never met but that's the kind of person a mother is.

A mysterious person who can invoke the deepest feeling in children's hearts just with the name. He longed for her blessing and her love.

He had not had this feeling when he met Kevin. Alex felt like a stranger.

Unfortunately, unlike his previous life, he was exempted from his mother's love.

Alex clenched his fist and wished peace for his mother's soul.

"Mother, I wish I could see your face but it's okay. Being able to see what you look like is already a great blessing."Alex smiled, feeling his turbulent emotions calming down.

"Will you tag along?"Alex asked before stepping in.

"I can't!"

"Only Your Highness can enter. The Cold Palace is protected by a barrier that even God cannot be broken easily. If this was used for The Entire Palaces, then it would have made an impenetrable fortress."

"Okay, I am going down" Alex waved his head and walked down.

The stair disappeared and a bright light appeared before the passage.

Alex's body was enveloped by a bright light that pulled him somewhere. Alex did not resist and let his body get dragged by.

As the blinding flash disappeared, Alex found himself standing on a transparent floor below which clouds were floating around.

Looking up he saw an array of stars forming various mystical patterns.

In the middle of the sky, stars were arranged forming a sentence.

"For my favourite beloved, who sleeps here, I fulfilled my wish of plucking stars for you but everything feels colourless without you. I hope you rest in peace in the place I created for you."

Alex did not know what this place was, but Alex saw several neatly arranged things around there.

There were weapons stands, mysteriously glowing trees bearing starlight, chirping birds made of stars, and calm waves of the ocean crashing against each other.

At the centre of the place, there was an old house. Alex opened the door of the house and saw a single simple room without much decoration.

There was a coffin in the middle, over which a slab of ice was placed.

Alex stumbled and his eyes widened as he felt a corpse preserved in the ice slab.

Alex, who saw the corpse, jumped back in bewilderment.

"No, it can't be."

"This can't be possible."

"System tells me..." Alex's mind blurred for a moment as he remembered doesn't have a system any more.

"How is this possible or is this a coincidence?"

Alex muttered in disbelief. His back was drenched in cold sweat.

What lay there was a woman whose skin was as subtle as if she was alive. And she wore the same purple colour dress that was worn by his mother in the picture.

But what surprised Alex the most, was the figure of the lady was similar....no, it was the same face as that of Queen Goddess.

"What is happening to me?"Alex held his head and then touched the ice slab.

It wasn't cold but it seems to preserve the corpse. 

The scenes of Queen Goddess doting on him and always hugging him came into his mind. When other goddesses bullied him too much, the Queen Goddess would always try to calm him down.

Alex, who had asked her why she always takes care of him like this, would get the same answer.

"Shouldn't a mother be concerned about his son's welfare?"

Alex had always thought of this as a joke and never taken her words seriously.

"I don't know what is happening. How can a Goddess give birth to a mortal, it's beyond rules."

"Maybe my mother is the daughter of the Queen Goddess, similar to my wives."

"Yeah, that's it."Alex regained his calmness after concluding and heard someone's voice.

"No, she is not."

"Who?" Alex's eyes flashed in cautiousness. Looking around he found a mirror from where the voice came from.

On walking towards it, Alex saw his image on it but at the very next moment the image distorted and another figure appeared.

"Old man, did you not die?"Alex shouted, seeing Kevin's image appear.

"Why do you want me to die?"

"What a son? I fulfilled all your wishes in the previous life only to be addressed as an old man."

"Hmphhhhhhhb!"
