Party Venue

Finally, the comedic skit of Serene and Ikar has finally subsided as that philanderer has gone to greet the other party guests. Well, that's understandable for a person who has high standing. He can't just go here flirting with a girl because he has a face to maintain and he probably planned to build some connections here in the first place. It might just happen that Serene is here, and his philanderer attitude has gone full throttle and then totally out of control, turning this into an embarrassing comedic skit.

In the first place? How did he know Serene's name? <Hey Serene, how did you come to know that Ikar person?>

<Administrator... 10 hours, 52 minutes and 29 seconds after we entered the Olandia, We went to hunt down the remaining vermins who attacked us in the morning. During that time, I met that person for the first time. He was hitting another girl in the secluded alley at 8:12 PM, when he got attacked by some of the surviving members of our enemy. Desperately from running away from us, they made him a meat shield. In short, I defeated the hostage-taker and saved that person. Then, out of the blue, he proposed to me, but I shut him down with rejection, but he continued to insist, so I punched him enough to make him faint>

Okay? Isn't the trouble you've undergone here a bit overwhelmingly too much? You cut a hero's arm, picking a fight with an entire gang who wanted to steal my slaves and wealth, and then you're even getting entangled with the son of an archduke, and all that happened on the very same day?

I look at her dubiously and think, "Damn, you're much more of a trouble magnet than me." I never expected someone would surpass me by being a trouble singularity. It somehow makes me happy but also concerned because she is my AI subordinate. Double trouble I guess?

<.... Then? How do you view that person?>

<My apologies Administrator, I don't understand>

Yeah, pretty much she will get confused because AI isn't programmed in such a way, but let's ask either way.

<About his proposal of marriage?>

"...."

Is she processing it at the moment? She should have a high-speed processor, right? Pretty much all of my commander class AI's could answer anything in the blink of an eye.

<Productive and acceptable, I would prefer to get married to him to increase the Administrator's prominence in this world by having his so-called half sister marry into an archduke family>

I see that's how you thought about his proposal... That Ikar person is really unfortunate. He is just a tool in Serene's point of view.

<Ideally, to get married to him once we successfully take over the ancient facilities capable of producing homonculus located in the so-called devil's den, we could have a family then, producing flesh and blood children that could potentially support the administrator's ambition in the following years under the umbrella of Nurem Dukedom>

....? It's just me or some of her lines is a bit strange?

<You're not going to go against marrying him and have childrens?>

I unintentionally looked at her despite communicating wirelessly with a dubious face, to which she responded by gazing at me with a dead pan expression.

<Yes, marrying him will bring us many benefits, and having a child is a natural part of a family, right Administrator?>

While she is expressionless, if she were a living thing, it might be felt as if she were saying "what are you saying? Isn't that obvious? " It's not that I'm oblivious, but men...
