"D-Date?" Marina looked surprised for a second. That ca out of nowhere!
"Indeed. First, we will go on a date, then we will announce our engagent. Let the world see that their golden boy is getting pinned down by a Princess."
"P-Pinned down!? W-What are you saying! Everyone already knows that you have a literal harem!"
But then she realised sothing.
"D-Do you have more children?" She asked him, getting a bit nervous.
"Indeed, this one is going to be my fifth one."
"..."
"..."
Both Shirin and Marina were speechless! This guy works quite fast!
"My oldest two are seven. The youngest is only two." He shrugged at her.
"But they are not here. At so point, I will explain to you what is going on. But for now, you should only focus on your date with .
I expect you to surprise ~." He winked at his newest fiancée.
"...Yes…" She needed a second to wrap her head around his situation.
But in the end of the day, she could only sigh. Yes, it was ti for her people to see her with Marcus in public.
"Good, then eat your breakfast and dress up, we will spend the day together, checking the company sites, and then we can explore the city." He winked at her. He will get two birds with one stone. Tomorrow, he can then return to his workshop.
Because he is feeling like a drug addict who hasn't had 'one' for a while.
"As you wish." Marina nodded as she began to eat. Though after last night, she is not 100%, while he took it easy on her, it was still a bit too much…
It was even worse for Shirin, who was pretending to be good, but she was slightly leaning into the couch.
"Don't worry, we won't be doing anything strenuous, after all, you are carrying my child, and I have a bit of experience in how to deal with won who are expecting." He explained quite confidently, making her roll her eyes at him.
Normally, one should be pissed, but she was in such a strange situation that she had to accept that he had several wives and kids.
Eventually, she finished with her food and went to change. Shirin used this mont to excuse herself and went to rest. Marina won't need her as she will be with Marcus.

The Emperor abused the geography of the place to generate power for Azadistan. Mountainous and hot, it was a perfect place for new types of solar panels built on poles and moving with the sun.
He had a chance to test so of the prototype technologies he can use in space with this.
So one of the first places they visited was the power plant rebuilt after Ali al-Saachez's attack.
Marcus and Marina went there to check out how it was working and to speak with the people who work there.
All of them were people from her country, and after teaching them how to operate the system, the specialists returned to Anaheim.
This was to satiate the conservatives… not that there were many of them.
After the power plant, they went to see the panels.
"...there are more of them." The white-dressed Princess comnted as she looked into the distance; there were a considerable number of poles holding the panels.
"There is. I did invest more in this place. If you haven't noticed, they are building several nuclear power plants as well." Marcus chuckled as he liked that expression on her face.
"What? Never heard of this news?"
The Princess began to pout as she realised that she was left out of the loop!
"Why am I hearing of this for the first ti!?" She complained, wondering if Shirin forgot to ntion that!
"Most likely, I have free rein to do whatever I want. The perks of being Princess Marina's favourite person." He leaned forward and wrapped his hands around her waist, pulling the beauty closer to his hands.
"Even so… I am the ruler of this land…" Her complaining tone was several tis lower now as she was in his hands. She wrapped her hands around his neck and looked at him.
"...Hmm, I wonder… You might not need to do anything, as the Ministry of Energy confird for you, as you most likely issued a degree that allows to do whatever I want in your lands." He whispered into her ear, making her tremble as his warm breath tickled her nape.
"M-Maybe…"
Though they were in public, so of the workers looked shocked to see their Princess do this in the open like that!
At that mont, the news began to spread, not that Marcus is hiding anything, but he had already sent a ssage to his news agencies to post his intentions of marrying the princess.
After a brief kiss, they continued their trip. This kind of explanation was what the princess enjoyed as she dedicated her life to this nation, so Marcus is showing exactly what she wanted.
They could have gone and done sothing more traditional, but it would be awkward for the Princess, who wants to spend her life serving her nation.
Instead, they were exploring the capital first to see how the city had recovered before going into a restaurant.
It was not so random restaurant, either, but a local cuisine one, run by a family.
"I am impressed…" Marina comnted as she was pleasantly surprised by his choices.
"I make big machines as a hobby; planning out a date is not hard for ." He chuckled, making her shake her head.
"I suppose there is so truth in that." She said with a sigh.
"...So… what will happen if I am to marry you and then you beco the ruler of the world… how will that translate to my responsibilities?" She asked him, not sure how her life would change.
"Don't worry. I will let you do what you like the most." He winked at her.
"...And that is…"
"Culture, entertainnt, events, you will be responsible for that, while I… or more precisely by selected officials will run the rest."
"...Oh… so its like that…"
"Indeed, you will be able to select your own people to assist you. I don't want you to die from exhaustion."
The Princess nodded, she realised that he already had everything sorted out. It was a bit… freaky, it's like he was ready for this long ago.
That should not be the case, right?
After a dinner that was 'informal' at first but then turned romantic, the pair returned to the Palace, where a bunch of 'fans' were waiting to see Marina and Marcus.
Thankfully, they were in a motorcade, and there were a bunch of security personel that are assisting them.
'Oh God… these people are so quick!' The Princess paled at the sight of a bunch of people who wanted to see them together.
"Relax, the windows of these limos are tinted; they won't see a thing," Marcus comnted, making her snap out of her worry.
"...I-I know… but shouldn't we do sothing about it?" She asked him, worried about this situation and what this could an.
"Don't worry, I already inford the news agencies. I have a script prepared."
Marina looked at him with a deadpanned look.
"...I am starting to feel that this is all a set-up." She comnted as she watched the limo drive into the Palace yard.
"Because it is. I have an artificial intelligence that assists . The mont I knew that you would have my child, I simply activated one of the plans I have in store in the central AI computer." He explained in a casual tone.
"...Right…"
"I am an inventor, you know? These kinds of things co naturally." He tried to explain, but all she did was roll her eyes even more.
"No, it's fine… It's just… well… ugh… for so reason I expected a bit of normalcy… but it's stupid to believe that soone who will be Emperor of the whole world will be normal."
"Oh, is that right. So you're saying the date was bad?" He was back to his teasing, making her look away with a small blush.
"No, it was perfect. I guess… One can't have without the other."
"You are just like my other girls. Wanting one thing but can't easily accept what cos with it." Marcus shook his head, complaining about his life.
"Hmph! That's what won are! Deal with it!" The Princess tried to sound annoyed, but there was a small smile on her lips.
"I did. I simply complain about it from ti to ti." He chuckled at her outburst, making her puff even more.
She wanted soone who could fix her nation, but at the sa ti, she wants that guy to be normal? Yeah, that stuff doesn't exist.
"Anyway, we are back in the Palace, let organise a state press or sothing like that." Marina swiftly left the limo once it arrived at the main entrance.
"Sure, do your thing. I will do mine." Marcus followed after her. He still needs to check the paperwork before he can leave.
~~~
Euphemia stared with wide eyes at the news she was looking at. It was from Azadistan of all places! Marcus was there, and he is going to marry their Princess!
"Damn that fox! How did she get into this!?" The Princess bit her thumbnail as she pondered. She heard the rumours! But why marriage all of a sudden?
She looked at Jeanne, who was looking everywhere but not Euphemia!
"You know sothing, don't you!?"
"Umm… yes…well… Azadistan's Princess and her Assistant were common people in His Majesty's bedroom when he was stationed in that country.
My wild guess is that she is pregnant and His Majesty is just making it official." The bodyguard explained with a pondering look.
"...Hmph, is that so. Well, I will make sure this is not a one-ti thing." The Pinkette seriously declared, she can't be behind in this! Not when his other wives are not even in this reality.
Now that the world is stable and under their control, his wives and children can visit and stay in this reality, and that is not good for Marrybell or her! They need him for themselves!
For at least several years!
"One ti thing… what does that even an?" Jeanne was confused by Euphemia's wording. It's like she is speaking in a language only she understands.
"You will understand what I an at so point." Euphemia declared as she returned to her work with increased motivation.
The Pinkette is responsible for foreign affairs. Soon, there won't be any foreign countries. Once that is done, she can focus on her real 'mission', the reason why she was in this reality in the first place.
~~~
Marrybell was just like Euphemia; she was speechless at the sight of this developnt.
It was sudden, and they didn't see it coming. She heard from Euphemia about the potential 'Eighth'. But he went straight to 'wife-up' this Princess.
At the very least, with Wang Liu i, they et with her, and Marcus even took her to see his world. But this Princess.
Far too sudden, 'There has to be a catch.'
The brown-haired Princess frowned as she watched the live television.
"What is going on…"
"Princess… isn't it normal… our Emperor just loves collecting won." Oldrin rolled her eyes as she was the only other person in the office.
"Don't be ridiculous, he is not collecting waste. All of his wives are talented individuals. He might not like to admit it, but he does follow Britannian Darwinism quite a bit.
This Princess is no different. She has sothing he wants. There is so sort of talent he wants his child—" At that mont, Marrybell realised what his ga was and got annoyed.
"Of course she is… he was deployed in Azadistan before. He had that Princess to keep him company!"
Oldrin looked at her Princess with a bit of worry.
'Now she wants his child… they are not even married yet… ugh…' The blonde massaged her head. Here cos another episode of migraine.
"That's it! You are going to help , Oldrin!"
"HAH!?"
