That fujoshi really ruined this series. It seems like the manga toned down her scenes compared to the novel though.
I believe the fujoshi, Eila, is actually the author's self-insert. Her whole existence in the plot was utterly inconsequential. If she had been removed, nothing would have changed, apart from the shounen-ai scenes from her imagination. Keeping this in mind, I guess it's understandable why Liam actually is never shown to do anything intimate with women, despite that supposedly being one his dreams as an "evil lord". The author is either a fujoshi or a similar man, whatever that would be called, so they can't bear to have scenes with Liam getting together with women, yet they couldn't make this a shounen-ai story because the market would be smaller, I imagine. So, we get no romance (M+F), but we got the whole fujoshi character with her imagination.

I guess yeah...
Honestly I felt like Liam was too harsh towards Rose. And it baffled me that we never saw the scene for Amagi despite the implications.

I think that's alittle too serious, in the afterword for the LNs, the author mentioned he wanted to add some extra comical minor characters/scenes. And a little spoiler to help back that up:
in the later volumes, 7-10, Liam contrary to what he thinks (little power and alittle military power), grants Rosetta enormous leadership responsibility (absolute power when he's away) and military power. The government understands that the large fleet she possesses means she's to be obeyed without question. I've come to the conclusion that the protagonist is supposed to be a kuudere the entire time, he lies to himself alot.

In Volume 10, he finally gets over himself and marries her. In the WN, he only pays attention to Rosetta, his son is the one that starts a harem so I suppose that's where the harem tag applies?

I find it funny that most people who commented here, found the fujoshi to be annoying.
I took it as a random comical character, slapped on there, in a situation that fit it -- two men, "strangely" unwed or not dating anyone, seem awfully friendly to each other....
Truly, a fujoshi moment waiting to happen.

I personally like her as a character, I didn't find her to be annoying, but I can get how people wouldn't like these sorta intrusive, have-no-real-point characters, that essentially just waste screen-time for doing anything else.
I think these comical-characters really do work, only if you don't have an entire episode featuring them. It's okay to sprinkle them here and there, but that should be it.
Hopefully she'll either maintain her low screen time, or she'll develop more of a personality and importance to the story, if she'll appear more and more.
