"What's marriage?" Maximus asked.
"This means I and Emma will always be together," Magnus answered.
Maximus rubbed his head, "But... Emma is always together with us."
Honestly, he was not very wrong, Emma spent more time with Magnus and the three gremlins than with her own family. She was already a part of the family. "You are right, but now she will be with us even more,"
"YAY!" he jumped to hug Emma. The three loved her because she was always very kind to them.
Seeing them, Magnus remembered the kids he saw in the hospital. He turned to talk to his brother, "What do you, say. Wanna make a Cure for Cancer?"
"Where did that come from?" Ragnar asked him.
"I will tell you later. Anyway, I'm going to get married. Once that's done, be prepared to face mum's constant pestering." Magnus smirked as he said that.
Ragnar was indeed worried about it now. "When will Max grow up and ease my burden? *sigh* But congratulations to you. I also have a gift for you. I may have found a cure for your condition. All this time we were trying to fix you, but that was like trying to turn Duck into a human. Your blood is not that of a human.
"Meanwhile, your mate, Emma, is a human. Do you think the sperms of a dragon and eggs of a female human can form a baby? Nope, never. Hence, we need to chop your dick,"
Magnus was nodding all this time until he realised, "Wait... what?"
"Haha, just kidding. I'm going to have to create a potion for Emma that can make her body stronger without mutating her. Basically, her eggs need to become strong enough to hold you." Ragnar revealed to him.
"And you know how to make the potion?" Magnus asked.
Ragnar shook his head, "It's just a theory. I don't even know where to start. I'm trying to study muggle medicine for now. It will take a lot of experimentation, of course, not on Emma."
"So it's not an immediate solution. Tell me if you need anything." Magnus was disappointed but accepted it. Something was better than nothing.
"Oh yes, I am going to need your blood and sperm... ugh... I can't believe I am asking this from my own brother." Ragnar scowled.
"I can't believe that I will agree to this. Things I do for myself. Let's enjoy the evening, forget this conversation." Magnus moved away to talk to his soon to be parents-in-law.
...
The announcement was not made public, and they were not going to do so until September, a month before the marriage. Now, a royal wedding was supposed to be pretty rule-based and bland. So Magnus was going to do as he pleases while following the rules. He wanted to make Emma feel like the most important person in the world that day and he will do it no matter what. All the church folks can go kiss their ass for all he cared.
But, in April, a major conflict arose. On 2 April 1982, Argentine forces mounted amphibious landings on the Falkland Islands. The invasion was met with a fierce counterattack as the UK was pretty rich at this point.
This made the conflict that lasted a day even more bloody and 2 Royal Marines martyred. But this was not something that occurred all of a sudden, the Argentinian government and the UK government were in talks.
It was clear to the British side that the Argentinian side won't agree, hence they had sent a naval fleet already. The reason behind this sudden invasion was Argentina's military junta led by Lieutenant General Leopoldo Galtieri was suffering criticism for its oppressive rule and economic management. So, they planned the Falklands invasion as a means of promoting patriotic feeling and propping up its regime.
Under Magnus' order, the United Nations Security Council passed Resolution 502. The US was already in full support, and the USSR and China abstained. Hence, the Argentinian side was condemned for breaking the peace.
But the situation was already out of control as 2 British Royal Marines had died. It was an attack that demanded full retaliation. How can a mere military dictator even think of attacking unprovoked?
Falklands Islands were already a complete part of the United Kingdom. This attack was like taking away British territory. Now, Magnus didn't care about all such things, but he needed to save face as he was trying to lead by example. If the UK could not even protect its own lands, how would the nations that sign military alliances with him feel confident?
"I will go there personally and lead a team of SAS. Of course, they will all be wizards from the Golden Company and not actual soldiers." He announced at the special war committee.
"But sir, you have a marriage coming soon," the Secretary of Defence said.
Magnus scoffed, "Hah, it's months away. I am a commissioned officer of the British Air Force. I can and should be there. Besides, it's just going to be a 20-minute operation, just in and out."
The thing is, with him, it might just be a 20-minute thing.
...
In heavily publicised news, the government secretly revealed that Magnus was personally going there. Now, when was the last time you heard a king go to war personally and fight?
It created some sort of craze and everyone wanted to know more. Good for them, they won't have to wait for too long.
Magnus arrived with a team of 20 wizards, all experienced in warfare. They wore military dresses and face paint to cover their identities. Then, they were dropped right in the middle of Buenos Aires, the nation's capital, specifically Casa Rosada, the workplace of the President.
The thing with dictatorship was that you grab its head, you get the whole thing in hand. Leopoldo Galtieri was in his office, sitting in comfort, hoping for a victory so he can strengthen his rule on the nation.
In a matter of 10 minutes, Magnus was sitting face to face with the president. "You know, I didn't really care about your country before. But now, I will make sure I take it. As I speak, MEDA is looking for all Nazis who are still hiding here. It's just been 37 years since the end of the war, after all. A lot of them are still alive.
"They will be held on a trial in the UK. Not just them, you will be held on a trail right here. You were really a fool to go against me. *Sigh* But thanks to you, now I shall have a foothold in South America,"
"Do you think my people will support the British occupation?" Leopoldo Galtieri growled. The man was still in his military uniform with medals he didn't deserve. Magnus always wondered where these bloody dictators get their medals from.
This made Magnus laugh, however, "Lieutenant, can you please turn on the television,"
One of the 5 wizards walked to the television set. The other wizards were securing the building. As soon as the television was turned on, a loud noise came. The scenes of large scale protests appeared. They were all holding signs welcoming Magnus to the country and chanting death to Leopoldo Galtieri.
"Hehe, shocked? You fool, I have a nickname around the world. It's called the Gold Maker. They say, any country or company I invest in turns into gold. Oh, one more thing. Who do you think controls the world media? Let me give you a hint, his first name starts with M and ends with an S." Magnus was enjoying tormenting the man mentally.
"W-what happens to me now?" Leopoldo Galtieri asked.
"Now, you sign the surrender and call back your forces, on live television," Magnus said with a wide grin on his face.
Leopoldo Galtieri just realised, the game he was trying to play, he was not even a player in it. He was just a pawn on the giant board, the real player was Magnus. But sadly, it was too late for him.
In a few hours, the live telecast was shown across the country and the world. Magnus standing beside the man as he says he is stepping down from his position and will allow new elections to be held.
~Let's go, now I am officially present in every continent. Wait... what about Australia? Meh, nothing happens there.~
