After five days of continuous care and constant treatment by Riya, Alex was able to recover a little and can now lift his arms freely but walking and running on his feet were still farther than he thought.
His health points rose from 6 to 7 after being fed nutrient soup every day.
Alex asked Riya about healing potions but Riya told that their condition was too bad to afford healing potions. Moreover, all the healing potions they have got from the Empire before coming here were used on Alex to sustain him when he was in a coma.
Alex just sighed and cursed his misfortune. In this life, he was born with a silver spoon but the spoon was snatched away before he could make use of it.
If he was able to recover from being an imbecile when he was in the Royal Place, things would surely be different.
While he was still going through rehabilitation, he didn't waste his time and he looked for the current status quo of the world to replenish his knowledge about the world.
Though he have general outline of this world, he didn't knew about the recent events and news that have taken place.
The name of this world is Everton.
It was a big central landmass which is ruled by many species.
Humans have three big empires, Kinley which is the oldest followed by the newly found Arkham and Harold.
Since each Empire is as humongous as a continent in its previous world. The Empire is divided into numerous small vassal kingdoms.
The Vassal Kingdoms can wage war among themselves and unless another Empire invades the Vassal State, The Empire generally didn't intervene.
The Vassal Kingdoms are graded from Tier 1 to Tier 7 while Tier 1 are the best while Tier 7 is the worst.
The Nevan Kingdom was Tier 4 before but it fell down to Tier 7. Fortunately, there were also other Tier 7 Kingdom.
Alex felt that if he would remain in a coma for a year or two then a Tier 8 had to be used for Nevan.
Catherine's the Wright-Kingdom was Tier 6 but she carried it to Tier 3 but it dropped after the Emperor invaded it and merged it with Nevan.
Seeing Alex sighing every day, Riya spoke"Lord, I know you are worried about many things but think about the brighter side."
"Brighter Side, what brighter side is there to think about, we all are drowning in darkness, isn't it?" Alex chuckled and gave a dispirited laugh.
Riya bent down before Alex who was sitting in the wheelchair and taking his hands and caressing it, spoke softly "My Lord, the first good thing is that you are no longer an imbecile or an idiot and you have recovered your mental state."
"Second thing is that now look at yourself while you were in a coma, you have lost your weight. Every time, I hear others saying you piggy and disgusting pig, my heartaches. But now you have become thin, once you recover you will shine like a bright sun among the sea of the stars in the sky."
Alex blinked his eyes as he heard Riya's sweet voice which carried a tint of sensuality, her sweet sensual voice was like honeydew dropping on him and melting away the block of sorrow while providing a sense of serenity.
"Riya, I am wondering about one thing. All of my wives are forced to marry me by that god damn father of mine and all of them must hate me to the core but from you, I can't see any hint of anger or sadness or remorse. Rather when I woke up, seeing the happiness on your face, I was shocked for a moment. Moreover, even after doing so much, you will be just hidden in shadow and will be thought of as a maid by everyone." Alex spoke.
When he woke up Riya hugged him and cried for a while, her two big assets pressing against his chest gave a wonderful feeling but the moment wasn't suitable at that time for him to enjoy it.
Riya's every move was filled with charm and elegance. She is a natural seducer.
Alex was sure that if he was healthy, it would be hard for him to control his urge.
Riya gave an alluring laugh that melted Alex's heart and said"My Lord, my existence is because of you. When I was small, I was a slave that was going to be sold to people as playthings but you rescued me, The Emperor saw that I was quite talented and decided to train me as your maid and a guard. I have already dedicated my life to yours but when the Emperor decided to place my name in the contract as your wife. My happiness knew no bounds."
"This Riya is only yours in this whole life and life that will be coming next. My soul is already yours." Riya exhibited a gentle smile with her sparkling black eyes.
Alex felt as if his heart had been shot with an arrow. She is as terrifying as a succubus, he fears that he will be sucked dry in bed if he doesn't improve his stamina.
Alex raised his head and held Riya's face, trying to pull it towards him. Riya followed Alex's notion and her face came near Alex.
Alex lowered, gave a gentle kiss on her forehead and patted her head.
"My Lord!" Riya's eyes widened and she blushed a little, as her face became red slightly.
Riya felt her body temperature going up a few margins and closed her eyes out of embarrassment and her eyelashes fluttered as she shook her head in shyness.
Seeing her reaction, Alex's mouth twitched a little. Just a simple kiss made her react this much, making her body hot. If he kissed her lips he feared, he may set her desires on flames.
The Goddess of Lust had clearly warned him to keep in check Riya. There are chances she would get the urge to fulfil her sexual desire and if left unchecked something terrible could happen if one day she loses control of her charm then everyone in the surrounding may turn into a sex fiend.
Previously, he wondered why Riya most of the time wore a veil. But after knowing things, he knew if she exposed her face, she could create havoc.
Her charm will only increase with her strength and by the use of her charm, she can turn any living thing into her puppet.
Alex's eyes shone with resolution. He can't take it slow, though his body is recovering, if this goes on as he would take too much time.
Alex tried to raise his legs and put them on the ground, he tried to stand up.
But his legs trembled and as he started to put pressure on them to stand, he stammered and fell to the ground.
Riya who was on the side caught Alex quickly but Alex shoved her away and forbade her from helping him.
He had to do this with his own will.
Alex fell several times as he tried to walk. It looked as if a newborn baby was trying to walk but failed repeatedly.
His legs had forgotten how to walk, moreover, there were no muscles in his leg that could support the ragged bones of his.
After countless tries, Alex was finally able to stand without falling and exhaled in relief.
That was when a message flashed before his eyes suddenly.
