Lady Prince (Kurapika x Reader)

3: Meet the Real Beasts

"Please, allow me to introduce my children." Emperor Nasubi Hui Guo Rou began. You sighed, knowing that this was going to talk a long time as well.

"Sons of Queen Unma: Prince Benjamin and Prince Tserriednich."

Benjamin was a tough fighter, that much you knew. He was the Deputy Military Adviser of the Royal Army of the Kakin Empire, and very tough. In fact, he was the first to suggest that killing you would be easier than raising you. Of course he had been shot down, but his duty to his family trumped everything.

Tserriednich was Benjamin's rival and brother. He was the scariest of all your siblings because he seemed so posh and polished but deep down he was sick and twisted. How did you know that? When you were small your brother had tried to turn you into his lackey. He played with you, taught you lessons and allowed you to follow him around. That was, until you stumbled into his special room. Dead bodies were strung up like art, pieces of them preserved and placed in viewing glasses. You had been terrified and quickly became overwrought with fear when you stumbled into his body. If it hadn't been for Beast, you were sure that you would have ended up on the wall. Regardless, every one but Halkenburg hated him.

"Daughters of Queen Duazul, Prince Camilla and Prince Tubeppa."

Camilla was quite beautiful, but only on the outside. Camilla was incredibly vain and spent money wildly. It was rare that you spent time with her, because "Cammy only has time for Cammy", which suited you just fine. She felt like an empty shell to you, devoid of true emotion and as greedy as they came.

Tubeppa was almost the opposite of Camilla. The most masculine of the female princes, she was incredibly intelligent to boot. You had a high amount of respect for Tubeppa and often tried to tag along with her when you were younger. But she couldn't stand your "wild imagination" at all. "Modest and Humility" was her slogan, and pretending there were creatures around you wasn't that. She didn't get along with anyone who didn't fit that slogan. Benjamin, Camilla and Zhang Lei were at the top of that list.

"Sons of Queen Duazul, Luzurus and Halkenburg"

Luzurus was your favorite brother. He was level-headed and caring, always allowing you to hang around him, until you got a little too crazy with the hair jokes. You felt like he was hugely underestimated.

Halkenburg was... difficult. He had some kind of complex that made it difficult for him to interact with other people, yet he felt as if other people hated him. He was very strict, which you often felt pushed onto you. It made him incredibly anxious when you talked to the nen beasts in front of him, but you couldn't help it. Yegi was one of your favorite nen beasts. But Halkenburg would never hurt you, and you knew that. So you tried to restrain yourself around him and he tried to care about you. He wrote you every week when he studied at Miwall, the best university in the known world, telling you about his adventures.

"Queen Tang Zhao Li's only son, Prince Zhang Lei."

You always thought that Zhang Lei had a split personality. He was luxurious, yet generous. A pacifist, but wouldn't hesitate to kill if he had to. Excessive but tolerant. He was a good brother, but these qualities made him seem almost egotistical. In short, he was confusing and you didn't spend a lot of time around him.

"Prince Tyson, only daughter of Queen Katrono"

Tyson was the epitome of a princess. She loved to be pampered, loved to be complimented and spoiled. And that was basically it.

"Officially halfway through, everyone. Queen Swinko-swinko's son Prince Salé-salé."

As you looked over, you noticed he had a few girls join him. Typical. Salé-salé always had women hanging off of him. And if there weren't women, it meant he was scheming. But you didn't hold it against him, after all, some of the most fun times came from time spent with Salé-salé. He had no qualms about taking you into the best clubs and hottest parties. Especially since you had grown quite beautiful in his eyes. He always wanted beautiful women around him, even if it was his sister.

"My beautiful twin daughters, Prince Kacho and Prince Fugetsu. Two sides of the same beautiful coin; their mother Queen Seiko."

Kacho and Fugetso were indeed opposites. Although both very beautiful, Kacho was considered spoiled, shallow and generally annoying. Most of the siblings despised Kacho and her rotten personality. Fugetsu however, was very caring and timid. Although both of the sisters loved each other dearly, Fugetsu often was stepped on by her sister. You would have loved to spend time with Fugetsu, but you couldn't risk running into Kacho. Your poor ears couldn't stand it.

The king sighed deeply and looked at you. It was your turn, and you knew he didn't like talking about it.

"My beloved late Queen Nulla bestowed me my most... colorful... prince, YN."

You tried your best to smile, but remembering that your mother had passed and that your father still missed her as much as you did, made it difficult.

"Queen Sevanti provided me with a daughter and a son, Prince Momoze and Prince Marayam."

Momoze was the closest to you in age and a gentle soul. So although you often sought out more interesting siblings, you enjoyed your time with her. Often alone, Momoze didn't mind that you were different. She figured you were as lonely as she was and reached out to you when she could.

Marayam was quite young, so you didn't know him, or the hamster he always carried around, very well. However, you did know two things. One, his beast was incredibly rude. And two, his mother favored him over Momoze.

"And my beautiful baby Prince Woble, from Queen Oito."

Woble was cute. She was a baby. Babies were cute to you. What else could you say? You were honestly just happy to be done with the introductions.

"Now, my princes, let me introduce the brave explorers."

You let out a groan. This felt like filler to you.
