However, he nodded in satisfaction, put his hand down on his waist, and smiled, "Not bad. After all, lying is not a good habit. It's better to be honest."
Now that Mar and Eng have laid their cards on the table, she can't afford to keep pressing the issue.
That way, probably not many people will dare to attack Marx and Engels.
After all, not everyone can accept the idea that their partner has multiple other partners.
Even she herself initially found it hard to accept.
This has nothing to do with the norm of the times, but rather with personal pride and arrogance.
Think of her, Nero, and Aozaki Touko—weren't they all exceptional women of their respective eras?
Under normal circumstances, how could someone like that be willing to share their partner with someone else?
Even Nero, who initially seemed to be given away for free, was only willing to accept it because she knew she was a newcomer.
Therefore, in the Lion King's view, Ma En's current exposure of these things will undoubtedly deter some girls who might want to pursue him.
Because the girls that Marx and Engels could fancy would certainly not be simple; even if they weren't exceptionally beautiful, they would at least be outstanding.
Marne rolled his eyes, feeling that the Lion King was being hypocritical after getting a good deal.
However, he didn't say anything, but looked at Mash, who was completely bewildered in his arms.
"I'm sorry, Mashu. Dad didn't mean to hide it from you. After all, my situation is somewhat shocking to outsiders."
Actually, he didn't say he wasn't single because he had any bad intentions; it was mainly because the situation around him was too unusual.
Back in the Fate/Zero world, Nero alone already drew strange looks from Tokiomi, Kenneth, and young Waver.
After all, dating one's own servant is, in their view, somewhat against common sense.
Then Aozaki Touko was added, and the way they looked at him became even stranger.
Putting aside the uniqueness of Aozaki Touko as a puppeteer, it's rare to see a man with two wives in the modern magic industry.
Not to mention, neither of Maren's wives are normal people, or rather, normal magicians.
One is a heroic spirit, the other is a puppeteer who changes bodies as easily as changing clothes.
This makes people wonder if Ma Enmo has some kind of peculiar fetish.
Although they didn't say it aloud, they would occasionally look at Ma En with strange eyes.
Ma En naturally noticed it too, but didn't say anything.
Because he also understood how unusual his behavior appeared to outsiders.
Mashu slowly came to her senses, looking at Marne with a complicated expression.
She was at a loss for words when it came to this only 'family member' she acknowledged.
Actually, she wasn't quite sure what her feelings for Maren were.
But she knew she really didn't want to lose Marne.
So she said, "So, Oudosan, would you not want Mashu?"
Without a second thought, Ma En replied, "Of course not. Mashu, you will always be my daughter, and we will always be family. How could I abandon my family?"
Chapter 266 Mozart's sycophantic self-cultivation, the enemy is attacking!
Ma En said with utmost seriousness, "In this world, and in so many parallel worlds, I have no relatives or friends. Apart from them, you are my only family."
"So no matter what, I will never abandon you, Mash."
"Mm." Xiu nodded.
Hearing Maren say that, she felt relieved.
As for Marx and Engels' wives...
She said she still cared; all she knew was that as long as Maren, her 'father,' wouldn't abandon her and they could be together forever, that was enough.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Mashu accepted these 'mothers'.
It was all too sudden, and she wasn't familiar with these "mothers" either.
At worst, she can just disown these 'mothers'.
Mashu convinced herself of this.
It must be said that Little Eggplant is very sensible.
After learning that Maren already had a wife, she also knew that if she continued to make a fuss, it would only cause Maren distress.
So she convinced herself to try to accept things she couldn't accept before.
What a good daughter.
When Mash calmed down, Ma En breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, 21 was such a mess, I almost lost control of it, but thankfully I managed to sort it out.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
Although they were enjoying the gossip, they were also worried that Mashu might not be able to accept it and might do something rash.
Now, regardless of the process, at least the situation has been stabilized.
At this moment, Ma En looked at Gudako who was standing to the side.
If this guy hadn't been so talkative, none of this would have happened.
When Gudako saw Marne looking over, her heart tightened, and an ominous premonition welled up in her heart.
Sure enough, Marne walked towards her.
He was still clenching his fists, with a 'kind' smile on his face.
"Gudako, how come I never realized you were so good at talking?"
"Tell me, what should I do with you?"
Gudako retreated in terror.
"Damn it! It wasn't on purpose, I was just joking, don't come any closer!" (Bu Jingyun.jpg)
Snapped!
"You're quite the talker, aren't you!"
Snapped!
"You like to tease my daughter, don't you!"
Snapped!
"If you can talk, then say something!"
Snapped!
"If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"
Snapped!
"I'll show you what's what, you never want a show to end like this!"
Clap clap! Clap clap! Clap clap clap clap!
"I'm sorry! I was wrong! I'll forgive myself! I'll never do it again!"
……
Gudako, tears streaming down her face, lay on the ground with her bottom sticking up: "Waaah~! Princess Minmali is also responsible, why only punish one! It's not fair!"
Her complaints, however, did not elicit any comfort from the crowd. Even Mashu, who usually cared for her the most, now ignored her.
Because she deserved it!
Mashu has been tricked like this twice today, each time more outrageous than the last.
She brought this upon herself.
Gudako knew it was her fault, so she didn't say anything more.
Silently, he took out a magical-level accessory from his pouch, replaced one of the three accessories on his belt, and began to perform healing magic, licking his own wounds.
But the turmoil was far from over.
The crowd had not yet recovered from Marx and Engels' self-destruction.
Mashu may not care, but the others certainly won't let it go unnoticed.
For example, when Black Hair looked at Marne, his gaze changed, and he did the same to the Lion King.
She never imagined that the other woman not only had that kind of relationship with Marx and Engels.
They are even willing to share with others!
Although she is an Alter with a reversed personality, she is still Artoria after all.
Of course, I know that if I were to choose a partner, I would prefer someone who is monogamous and devoted.
So she couldn't understand what kind of situation or what had happened that would make the Lion King willing to accept Mares as his concubine.
However, with so many people around, she felt awkward asking the question, so she had to hold back for now.
Hinako Akuta simply hadn't expected that Maren was a womanizer, so she looked at him and felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
However, she simply assumed it was because she disliked fickle people and didn't think much of it.
Joan of Arc, on the other hand, didn't feel much about it, since in her mind, polygamy was just the norm among nobles.
I never expected that Marne would be like this, but it's not unacceptable, after all, Marne is much more outstanding than those nobles.
Yes, Princess Mary felt the same way; in fact, she thought that Marne was even better this way.
Just as she had previously believed that status is proof of excellence, having more and better partners can also prove a person's excellence.
So, perhaps because of their previous 'confession,' her eyes sparkled as she looked at Ma En, as if she were looking at some rare treasure.
However, she didn't say anything. Her feelings for Ma En weren't strong enough for her to pursue him.
