Chapter 32

I open my eyes. It's morning. I know that there should be 11 beautiful girls in my bed and I think I feel someone's head laying on my chest. I look down and see golden blonde hair. My eyes start going wide. I know who this hair belongs to and she's not one of my girls. Then I see movement coming from the golden blonde haired woman. She looks at me with her blue eyes. I look back at her.

"Good morning Michelle. Did Yuna and Iris say for you to do this?" I asked remembering Yuna and Iris whispering into Michelle's ear last night.

"Yes. I wasn't going to but they insisted that I do this."

I knew it.

"Did you enjoy laying your head on my chest and playing with my chest hair?"

"Yes, I actually did. It was the first time I did anything like this but I liked it."

"Did you enjoy it enough to want to do it again?"

"I would only if it was with you. Did you mind?"

"You actually put me to sleep by playing with my chest hair. However, I didn't mind. I slept like a log. I was a little surprised to she you there when I woke up just now but I didn't mind. I think God wanted us to be together if you think about it."

She thought about it and then looked into my eyes.

"I believe what you said just now is the truth. Please take care of me from now on."

"I will Michelle."

1 Hour Later...

Everyone was awake as I was smoking a cigarette and thinking about what to do today when Kagura walked over and sat in the chair across from me. I looked at her.

"So I was thinking and I remembered what you told me when asked about your army. Now why are the majority of your forces all at the western border of the kingdom?" I asked while taking a puff on my cigarette.

"It's because of the Iron Blood Empire. The emperor wants to rule all of the western continent. He sent a messenger to ask for my hand in marriage even though he is already married. I told him no and he threatened to take me by force if I didn't comply." She said.

"Yeah, if he sends another messenger to demand you to become is wife again, you let me deal with that fucker. I guarantee you this. He's not going to like me not one bit." I said with a smirk.

She smiled at me.

"I'll leave it to you."

What an asshole to demand someone to marry someone else. I will take him down a peg or 2 if he thinks his shit don't stink. I wonder what his wife thinks? I got to find out more since this could be a future problem and it could be something that will show up soon.

I tell all 12 girls that we're heading back to the castle. I like Akiha but I need to get back and help with repairs and relocating the homeless from Rommol to the capital. Another 2 day trip.

2 months later...

I am a happily married man and a king. The grand priest of the Hearth Kingdom was the one that married all 12 women to me and the next day, Kagura handed me her kingdom. I'm known as the Mad Dog King of the Barnes Kingdom. I helped establish an alliance between my kingdom, the Hearth Kingdom, the Evergreen Kingdom, and the Marks Kingdom. In 5 months, William is to be wedded to Beth. As for the the capital here. it was renamed Austin in honor of my dad and little brother. I kept Naga and Fiji the same for their names. Akiha kept it's name to but the red light district is no longer there. That area now is an area where if the homeless needs help they go there. I brought Ann, Margaret, and Luke with me to the new Barnes castle. The coalition army is now known as the Barnes Alliance Army and where they are, that king or general has control over them to an extent. They are monitored so that no one abuses it army to try to take over countries or kingdoms. It's more for self defense than anything else.

The Iron Blood Empire is still a threat but not as much. I sent a message to the emperor that any acts of aggression will be a declaration of war and I will retaliate appropriately. He pulled 3/4 of the forces he had at the border away from there but I kept all the current forces at the border there just in case. I have my battle maids infiltrate the empire to keep tabs on them. I don't trust them. The villages that was razed has been making a comeback slowly. The Marks Kingdom had some homeless that I invited to come into my kingdom.

My wives have been on cloud nine since taking my last name and the biggest news is Yuna, Iris, Liza, Kagura, Lydia, Mary, and Michelle are pregnant. I was happy as hell that I knew I was going to be a dad. In my past life, I never had any kids from my loins so for this to happen, I felt God smiling down on me.

I was in the throne room when a battle maid walked in.

"What's your report?"

"Your Majesty, the emperor has gave the order to mobilize all troops to the southeastern region of there land."

"Thank you, recall all battle maids. Good job by the way."

"Thank you, your Majesty."

I call for Iris to meet me in the war room in 15 minutes and to put the castle guard on high alert.

15 minutes later...

I just walked into the war room and see Iris standing there waiting for me with a smile on her face. Ever since she found out a few weeks ago that she was pregnant, she has been nothing but smiles and joy.

"Iris, I got a report from one of the battle maids. Looks like the Iron Blood Empire is on the move to our southwest." I said.

"I see, I'll send the BAA there ASAP." She replied.

"I'll be there also with our own force, I warned the emperor and I'm not a man that doesn't go back on my word."

"I know. Just be careful. I wish I could join you."

I hug her and place my hand on her belly.

"I know and you know I'll be careful. I will protect my land and my family. I love you Iris."

"I love you too honey."

I kiss her and walk out of the war room. I call for the rest of my wives. I get into the dining hall as they are currently gathering. I kiss them all on the lips and sit at the head of the table. I have everyone's attention.

"I have to leave to the southwestern part of the kingdom. The Iron Blood Empire has decided to move all of there forces to there.. The BAA and the army will be working together in defense, However, as soon as they're driven back, I will launch an assault on the empire. I'm warned the emperor and he didn't listen. So that's where I'm at. any questions?" I said.

I heard those words that I keep hearing lately, this time in unison.

"Just be careful."

"Always."

It would take 9 days for a normal person to get to where the hot spot is located. The BAA was at Naga doing drills. Here to there would take 4 days normally. From there to the hot spot would be five days. Iris had already sent a messenger by horse so that would make it tow to 3 days before the BAA to start marching towards the border. I got to get a message system in this world. I pack up what I need which is food, water, rope, and some paper to start a fire since I already have a lighter. I head off alone towards the southwestern border. It will take me 4 to 5 days by myself and if I need to, I'll defend it using the minigun.

I start running at full speed. I miss running with Lydia when we went to liberate Naga. She's the only one to keep up with me and hide her presence. Mary can keep up too but she doesn't have any combat skills. Besides, Mary and Lydia are both pregnant so I can't take them because it would cause too much stress on their body and more likely cause a miscarriage. They will rest until they have my kids then go back to training. I ran until nightfall and set up camp. I ate and went to bed. nothing bothered me since I learned that I could use stealth when I sleep.

Morning came and I was up, I ate, packed up, and started running again. I could tell I made up enough ground with a late start yesterday that by nightfall, I had travel what a normal person would travel from morning to night. I could make so much ground today that I could travel twice as far as a normal man by nightfall. However there will always be distractions. And that will be no different today.
