The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess
Chapter 56: Fending Off The Tide Of Beast

Alex exchanged greetings with all of them and Hamilton asked Aeon to show them the place.

Alex ordered his soldiers to get some rest and make themselves comfortable after all, who knows when a bloody battle may start again.

Alex followed Aeon who explained about the fortress a bit.

They were the shield of Nevan that blocked the route of a monster living in the Atas Edge Mountain and forest.

Their troops were divided into many small squads and rangers.

Rangers would actively search for the location of monsters and dangers coming at them while a garrison of soldiers would rotate shifts to clear out the monsters and slay the vicious beasts.

If things get out of hand then it would be time for Count Steelfield to step in.

Most of the monsters are in the range of squire and Disciple ranked.

There may be strong monsters deep inside the forest but they don't come out often. There are cases where a Master rank monster lost the way coming to attack but it was taken care of by his father.

That's how things were but recently the number of monsters seemed to have increased by a huge margin and there seems to be unrest among the monsters.

Alex listened to everything carefully and pondered for a moment and said"Aeon, what do you think of the possibility of a War going inside the forest."

Aeon looked at Alex with a confused look and asked"What do you mean by that?"

"Just like us, monsters should have their territory. What if a group of monsters wanted to conquer the other lands and a blood war would be taking place and these weaker ones would have fled here."

On hearing Alex's explanation, Aeon's eyes widened as what Alex said may be quite plausible.

......

Inside the huge fortress, Alex was invited to a grand welcoming ceremony.

Alex looked at the huge buffet at the table and asked"There was no need to do this."

"Your Majesty, I am doing this because once those damn monsters started their rampage, you would hardly have any time to eat."

"So, enjoy as much as you can."

After the warm greeting and cheerful dinner.

Alex and Hamilton along with some people sat in the middle of a serious discussion.

Hardly had they started the contents for a few minutes when the entire Fortress shook with a loud trumpet.

Hamilton facepalmed and muttered that it started.

Alex frowned and said"Do they attack at night?"

"Mostly," Hamilton replied.

Alex nodded with an expression that he understood that their life is going to be shit now.

As Alex reached the top of the walls, he saw a huge number of monsters.

It looked like an endless sea of monsters that were bulldozing their way here.

Alex looked at the sky and to see bat-like creatures flying towards

The only fortunate thing was that there was a bastille on the top of the castle to shoot them.

The residents and villagers nearby, under the direction of knights and soldiers responded quickly and finished the evacuation.

The archer had already taken their position to interrupt the bat monster.

"If only, I have awakened mana. I would have just roasted them with fire."Alex muttered as he took out the bow and an arrow from the quiver and started to shoot.

The bats were unaware of this and flapped their wings towards the fort where they thought they would be feeding to recover their strengths and move ahead.

But their dreams didn't remain long.

As the bats neared the fortress, the huge rubbery string of the bastille was pulled back and a huge wooden arrow was shot.

Swish.

The arrow was way bigger than the bat monsters whose sizes were similar to vultures in Alex's previous life still they were way bigger than normal bats.

The arrow hit a group of bats and took down ten of them in one go.

Swish...Swish...Swish.....Swish.

One after another large arrows were fired that were shot like cannons which tore the bats who burst like a watermelon on clashing against the huge arrow.

If this wasn't enough, the archers started to fire the arrows that rained down the bats.

The arrows hit their wings and tore them off.

The bats screamed and squeaked and fell, unable to maintain their flight and were smashed into pulps by the monsters running down.

" Tsk...Tsk...Tsk...."Alex clicked his tongue several times in annoyance as he shot the arrow.

Most of the bats weren't even ranked and killing them gave him no experience.

He is already past that level and now he can only get experience by killing ranked warriors.

And if there are squire ranked bats, these wooden arrows weren't useful to kill them.

A horde of bats was able to pass through the defence of the rain of arrows and was going over the city wall but before they could pass it, Eon jumped from the wall and his figure shot like cannon and appeared before the bat, he cut it into pieces and killed the other.

"I should also do that," Alex muttered and started to follow the notion and jumped from the walls.

In one jump, he covered 20 metres and slashed with his sword.

A highly compressed wind blade which was born due to Alex's strength was shot towards the bats which sliced them apart.

Alex's eyes lit up seeing the series of notifications which looked as if money was deposited in his bank while carrying out his slaughter.
