The wedding was attended by hundreds of tribal people, ISSD officials, ministers and many high-ranking officials of the country.
Alberto summoned the best chefs from the system to cook. The best musicians and dancers in the country also came to the wedding to provide entertainment.
A grand wedding was planned for them.
Their wedding is currently being telecast on various media outlets.
-------
Makari and Carl were standing on stage. Makari was wearing a white wedding dress.
Carl looked a little sad. Since, for him,, it was a forced marriage. Alberto had arranged this marriage to strengthen their relationship with the tribes. So it can be said that Carl was unhappy about it.
But on the other hand, Makari was very happy. She hugged Carl's hand and had a beautiful smile on her face. Her eyes were shining.
....
Alberto finished a bowl of soup and put it on the table. There were many empty bowls and plates piled on the table.
Alberto has eaten a lot of food, which has caused his stomach to grow bigger.
Alfred, who was standing behind Alberto, said worriedly.
"Your Majesty, you should stop eating now. Eating too much food can cause various problems in your body."
Alfred was feeling a little awkward, a look of discomfort appeared in his eyes. A small look of disappointment appeared on his face. Many people were looking at them strangely because Alberto was eating so much food.
"Alfred, what are you saying!? I want to eat something spicy now. Go and bring me four plates of chilli chicken and spicy tacos!"
(Spicy tacos are spicy, delicious and quite popular Mexican food)
"But your Majesty.....
Alfred was about to say something but was interrupted by Alberto. He said angrily, "Alfred, go quickly. I don't like waiting."
"I understand, Your Majesty." Alfred bowed his head slightly. He left, wiping his sweat with a handkerchief. There was a hint of discomfort in his eyes. He wondered if Alberto's desire for unnecessary food could be a symptom of some disease.
{Tch! That stupid Circe. I asked her for a potion that would increase my stamina so that I could work longer, but after eating the potion she gave me, my hunger increased a lot. But these foods are also very delicious. I should appoint these chefs for the palace. Then I can eat such delicious food every day. }
Alberto lets out a Burp! after eating his meal.
{I've already eaten a lot of food.} Alberto looks at the plates on the table.
{Shit! I should have asked him to bring me a Coke too}
Alberto looks at an ISSD member standing next to him.
Several ISSD members were standing next to Alberto.
[I made some ISSD members image, Please check the comment]
"You come here"
Alberto said, looking at the ISSD member standing closest to him.
He stood in front of Alberto and said, "Yes, Your Majesty. What are your orders?"
"Go and get me a Coca-Cola. Also, tell Circe that I asked her to come here quickly."
"I understand, Your Majesty." The member bowed respectfully. He then left to fulfil Alberto's order.
Alberto looked at his newly formed belly.
{Hehehe it looks like a pregnant woman}
Then the sound of applause drew his attention to the stage.
Tribal leader Masu was giving a short speech.
He also looked at Makari and Carl.
{Hehe poor Cal}
"Ah, Your Majesty"
A man came to Alberto. He was David, the head of Empire's Power, Energy, and Mineral Resources Department.
"Hmm, David, it's so good to see you. Anyway, why are you standing? Sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty," David took his seat.
"I didn't think Chief Carl would get married so soon."
He looked at Carl and Makari standing on the stage. Several cameramen were taking pictures of them. A lot of clicking could be heard.
"Why?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Alberto said, leaning lazily in his chair.
"No, I meant that he was very handsome. I also heard that many girls had crushes on him. There are even rumours that Elizabeth's PA Rena also liked him."
"He is very handsome anyway, so it's no surprise. I feel sorry for those women now, they missed their chance."
"I think so too, Your Majesty," they both said with a smile.
"In fact, that's why I arranged for his marriage so early. Otherwise, he might have become a playboy in the future," Alberto said with a little pride.
"Ah! As expected of His Majesty. Your thoughts are really very profound. I also agree with this, if you hadn't done this, he might have gotten into a lot of affairs," David said with a smile.
{Bullsheet! I was just jealous. That's why I did it}
"Your Majesty, you are also very handsome. If you want a woman, all women in the country will want to be yours," David said with a mischievous smile.
The ISSD member Alberto had sent to bring the Coca-Cola brought a bottle of Coca-Cola and poured Alberto a glass of Coca-Cola. Alberto thanked him and took the glass.
"David, they will do it; I know it too; they will obey all my orders because I am the emperor. But I don't want anything like that," Alberto said, sipping his Coca-Cola.
(Everyone summoned by the system is obliged to obey Alberto's orders no matter what order he gives)
"So, David, about the new gas field we found, is it capable of meeting our current needs?" Alberto asked the question, becoming a little more serious this time.
"It's too early to say for sure, Your Majesty. Initial estimates are promising, but we need to do more exploration and analysis before we can be sure of the reserves. We'll have to wait a few more weeks for that," David said thoughtfully.
"Hmm, Good" Alberto said, taking another sip of coke.
"But Your Majesty, our demand for oil has increased greatly at present, and we only have one oil field from which we can extract only 400 barrels of oil per day. We have not yet discovered any new oil fields." The worry in David's voice was clear.
Alberto was worried about this {Hmm. That's worrying. I'll have to buy oil from the system again. Hopefully we'll find a new oil field soon so I can save some more SC. }
"Your Majesty, your food." Alfred arrived with the food. He served the food on the table. But just as Alberto was about to eat, an ISSD member quickly arrived here. He looked very worried, his face pale and his brow furrowed. He bowed low before Alberto.
"Your Majesty, there's an urgent message from the Navy!" he said breathlessly.
What do you think?
