His Princess (Seiya Kanie X Reader)

(10) (Y/n)'s Suprises

Keeping the solution in my hand firmly, I ask, "One more thing. How do you feel about Seiya?"

"I really—mph!" Isuzu covered her mouth, eyes wide.

My eyes go cold for a second before I fake a chuckle, and handed her the solution. Quickly drinking it, she turned to the floor silently.

"Your highness, why the sudden question?" Isuzu asks, not making eye contact.

"I was just curious. And especially after that reaction... I can't help but confirm it..." I say, waving my hand over the cauldron. Isuzu's eyes widened as the fire extinguished and the cauldron was now empty.

Seeing this reaction and wanting to change the subject, I say, "Ah, don't worry. I just bottled the solution, you can find it in that isle where the non-life-threatening-antidotes are. I can't quite just make it disappear without dumping it into space or a wasteland."

"That's impressive... but I'd still like to address Kanie kun..." she started.

"Well, go right ahead." I say, looking at her.

She remained silent for a few moments before continuing, "I admire him. He's everything I want to be, as a leader. He's annoying, but he does his job well. Better than anyone else could. But that is all. I've had no moments or interactions with him to like him for more than admiration."

Sensing she was being honest I mutter, "I see. So even that fate was changed..."

"Hm?" Isuzu says, now making eye contact.

"Nothing. Let's—" just as I start talking my phone rings, telling me I got a text message.

"Ah. It appears that Seiya would like me to be on the phone while you guys do the interviews." I say, putting the device back into my pocket.

Isuzu took a moment to collect herself while in thought, and then says, "I see. I will be on my way now, your highness. Please stay in the castle."

I simply nod and we walk to where we're supposed to be. The interviews were... unique... The people who wanted the job were of unique backgrounds for humans. But during he interviews Moffle was angry at Seiya, though I only had to contradict his arguments with logic to get him off of him. Isuzu was stressed about something... but I can't quite put my finger on it. That fact tells me it's likely her own thoughts or beliefs stressing her.

Just as I was analyzing the interviews thus far, a ninja managed to sneak it's way into the interviewing room. "I am the legendary shadow of Eegah, I'm prepared to lay down my life for my lord at anytime," he says with all earnestly.

"Ohhhh, loyalty, I like that." I say into the phone as my hands fidget with a dagger.

"Hired." Seiya says, stamping his papers.

Getting slightly more irritated, Moffle says, "Gee... I didn't know the requirements were simply being alive and breathing."

"Well, we're desperate." Seiya deadpanned.

And I added, "You'd turn down a loyal servant?"

"This is a park! Not a war zone!" Moffle says. Which I reply, "Well, you never know. Better safe than sorry."

Not long the next interviewee comes in. "Hello, my name is Eiko Adachi. Thank you for taking your time to see me today."

The next thing I hear was Isuzu stuttering about Eiko being in her dream. "That's fine, I have futuristic dreams as well most of the time." I say, only half joking.

"B-but!"

"Don't worry about it Isuzu, I'm sure it's not a big deal anyways. Now then, let's carry on. So Eiko, you've been in a few films for a talent agency right? What type of films were they, and how can I find them?" I say, trying to push the conversation along.

"Ah yes. I did AV. You can just search up my name to find them." Eiko replies cheerfully.

"I see..." I say, opening another tab on my laptop. I then started to search her name when Seiya says, "Wait (Y/n)! Hold on! Are you really looking them up now!?"

"Yeah, why?" I replied, looking at the animal videos popping up.

"(Y/n) (L/n)! That's not something someone like you should be doing!" Moffle scolded.

"(Y-Y-y/n)..." Seiya stuttered.

"Ah, so you do voiceovers for these films. They're quite interesting." I say, getting the idea to keep teasing Seiya—knowing what he's thinking.

Eiko hummed and says, "Yes, that's correct."

I hear Seiya and Moffle freaking out in what to do and how to react when I say, "That's great. A bit unusual, but I can think of a few uses. Like being our announcer, the voice for our advertisements, the first face people see, or someone to give information for people. If it was up to me, I'd hire you. Though that's up to our park president."

Eiko comments, "Thank you for the compliments. I really don't think I deserve it, but thank you for encouraging me."

"So Seiya?" I ask him.

He was silent for a moment, but says, "You're hired. Please wait for the follow-up email from our secretary, Sento Isuzu."

After Eiko, I sort of just continued to watch her videos. They were alluring in a way. And the rest of the interviews continued to go as planned—well sort of. A fight broke out between an interviewee and her older brother. And some words about Isuzu being incompetent got thrown out...

Isuzu's POV

I stood there thinking about what Seiya and Lord Moffle said. Well, more like what Seiya said. I couldn't care less about what Lord Moffle said about the size of my breasts and brains. Did I really give good analysis for the park and not myself? Is that my weakness? Resorting to my guns before my brains..? Moffle walked out after looking at the paperwork for ten seconds, and when he left I continued thinking. Maybe Princess (Y/n) can help me sort out my thoughts. She always welcomes my problems and those of the park. No... I shouldn't bother her...

Just as I continued thinking, (Y/n) walks in. Wait. (Y/n) walks in? "Your highness, what are you doing here?" I say worriedly.

"Just came to check up on you two. It seems that everything feel apart after those last few interviews." She says, smiling. It was a genuine one too... but why..?

"You... but-aren't you- I." I started to stutter, and (Y/n) asks, "Speak of the devil moment? Is here anything you'd like to talk about?"

She knows... my brows furrowed at her intuition. I looked to Seiya and then back to (Y/n). "No your highness. There's nothing."

She cocked an eyebrow, but didn't say anything else about the topic. "Well... The real reason why I'm here is to help relieve your stresses, and to find a way or an activity to thank Seiya for yesterday."

I looked from her to Seiya, who was looking deeply into (Y/n)'s eyes with a smile. They seem to make a good pairing...

"Well Isuzu? Would you like to join us?" (Y/n) asked with a cheerful tone. She had a much different expression than usual... but it was still her.

"No..." I say, thinking about what I need to do. I need to change for the better as well. "I have somethings I'd like to review for the park." I added walking over to the door.

With happiness and the feeling of being able to finally move forward, I say, "But please, enjoy for evening together." I then walked out and created a plan to combat my flaws head on.
