The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddesschapter 558: a glimpse of future and past

Alex stared at the tall blonde figure behind the mirror smiling at him.

For a moment, it truly took him by surprise as he observed the mirror wondering where this artifact came from.

The figure of his father looked more young and filled with vitality.

Raising his brows, Alex asked, "Did you leave behind a part of your consciousness?"

"Hmm!"Kevin nodded.

"I don't know whether I am dead or alive by now. I just want to let you know about an important event. There have been many coincidences and this might have changed the scenario of futures still I think it will be within our expectation."

"You might have suffered too much pain.You might have been lonely and sometimes asked yourself why all of this is happening to you."

"But I want to say that all of this happened to avert that one end. The end that almost destroyed the world before."

"Are you talking about the future? Did you get a prophecy or did you see the future with your own eyes?"Alex asked warily.

"Tsk...Tsk.."Kevin shook his head, clicking his tongue.

"Do you think a prophecy can make me afraid?"

"No, it's something I have personally experienced. Not only me but also you."

Alex frowned hearing Kevin's words. He already had a bunch of ideas about this but he kept quiet letting his father speak.

"You wouldn't understand even if I say."

"Place your hands on the mirror. I should show you..."

"My memories of past, future and present.The things I have gone through."

"How I fell in love with your mother and scenes of our journey together?"

A smile appeared on his lips as he spoke about his mother making Alex's lips twitch.

Alex placed his hands on the mirror. His vision blurred and countless images appeared in his mind dragging him somewhere.

.....

"Mongrel, just crawl there and keep your head down."

After getting beaten, a boy was thrown onto the tree and left behind with marks of beating.

As the man left, many questions appeared in his mind.

"Why am I so pathetic?"

"Why did I have to be born in this cursed family where there is no feeling of family hood?"

A boy of twelve years rested his head against the tree staring at the dark gloomy clouds with a lifeless gaze.

BOOM!

Thunder striked and lightning flashed across the sky one after another.

The rain started to pour out endlessly creating a faint hazy layer. The boy drenched in the rain suddenly heard loud sounds.

"Prince...Prince...."

"Please get back. You are going to be sick."An old man covered him with an umbrella and asked him to come with him with a warm smile.

The boy nodded softly and got up with the old man's help.

As he walked back, his strides were slow and his back looked lonely and desolate.

The old man sighed seeing his dead eyes.

He was the Sixth Prince of the Empire. He was born with an auspicious sign. There were hymns of God and godly signs spreading across the world.

He should have been loved and adored, but one day everything changed.

Later someone prophesied that one day he will wash the lands in blood and become one of the strongest individuals of the world.

This prophecy shocked many and his birth which should have called for a celebration instead became a disaster for him.

The Emperor thought the boy who was destined to create a bloodbath would rebel so he distanced himself from him and tried to suppress him every day.

The other mistress would suppress his Fourth Mother Consort. She had a strong maternal family but her family was destroyed under the Emperor and other noble's' ploys, leaving them to fend off against their own.

Pushed to the limit, his mother blamed him for all this misfortune and even tried to kill him saying everyone would live peacefully if this menace died when he was just one year old however he was unable to do so at the end.

And a few months ago, she finally died.

Whether she died naturally or was killed.No knew that.

Previously, many servants were serving him but all of them left one by one. The fourth Sixth Mansion which had been brimming with people had become a desolate haunted place.

"Charsi,I have been feeling too suffocating.I want to go out."

"Your Highness,I will ask for permission."Charsi spoke faintly while lamenting about the fact that a Prince had to ask permission to leave.

"Hmmm!"

....

At the darkest time of the night when all noises ceased to exist except the soft rustling sound made by winds.

"Your Highness...."

A loud painful scream jolted him up from his sleep.He immediately got up from the bed and looked at the source of sound.

BANG!

A black shadow loomed over him giving him a vicious glare.Before he could react,a dagger came straight towards his neck but before it could touch him...

Swishhhh!!

The head of the black clothed figure disappeared and the dagger stopped just a few inches away from his neck.

Blood spurted staining his face.His eyes trembled for a moment as the body fell down on the ground with a loud thud.

"Wh...What is going on?"

"Your Highness,we are attacked?"

The boy's attention was drawn towards the source of sound and he saw Charsi bathing in blood standing behind the body.

Large gashes and cuts appeared behind his back.

"Your Highness,you need to leave.Assassin had attacked us and almost took down our force's."

The boy's words struck in his throat.

"But where can I run?I am just a helpless lamb?"

"Listen to me, Your Highness?"

"You are destined for greatness?"

"You can't die here."Charsi then handed a storage ring and a scroll.

"This storage contains resources and food supply for years.On tearing the scroll you will be transported to Royal Mausoleum."

"I was part of secret forces was in charge of guarding royal mausoleum.No one is allowed in the inner area.This scroll will take you to the inner zone.There is a portal near the grave of founding Emperor which only Stan bloodline can excess.Time flow differently there."

"You can stay there safely until you are stronger.Her Highness made this plan seeing the situation becoming unfavourable for you after birth."

"There are too many flaws in your plan.I mean you know I am not able to awaken.What if I can't ever awaken.Then,I would be stuck there."

"It's better if you teleported me outside the castle.I will sneak in between the commoners and escape."

"This is not feasible, Your Highness,The entire capital is under Emperor and Empress hand.And if the Emperor knows about this,instead of helping you he will think it's better to get rid of you like this."

Charsi turned around and he felt a presence around him.

"Your Highness leave...."Charsi shouted and lunged at the three figures..

"Charsi escaped with me."He shouted with an eye brimming with tears.

"I can't...Highness,please leave.Don't waste this chance..You can have revenge later."Charsi who mustered his courage,felt a piercing pain.

A dagger stabbed him causing his stance to falter.Taking this opportunity ,the other assassin pounced on him.

Charsi tried to resist but he was stabbed all over his body.

"He is done for,get the boy."A sound echoed.

The boy's mind jolted awake and he stared at them with a hateful look.With fast swift movement,he tore the scroll and shouted"One day,I will return and have my revenge."

A blinding flash enveloped him and before the assassin could reach him,his body disappeared.

The last scene of Charsi smiling at him lingered in his eyes as he vowed to pay back one day.
