Chapter 858: Green hat for protagonist Kanie

[Sensitive protagonist as always.]

[Is it because I have the ultimate villain halo on top of my head? Just by coming face to face, even though Kanie hasn’t recognized my identity, he gave me a hostile look.]

Eiji complained in his heart but on the surface, he smiled kindly.

“I didn’t expect my appearance to be considered too suspicious to enter this park.”

“When I did it yesterday, I didn’t experience anything like this. Bro, isn’t your attitude towards visitors like me unusual?”

His voice was loud enough for the surrounding visitors to hear.

Many of them were staring at Kanie with strange looks, the women who were fascinated by Eiji’s appearance were not happy with his attitude.

They felt Kanie was being biased and prejudiced against a visitor just because he was better looking than him.

“You…!” Realizing what the gazes of the other visitors looked like at him now, Kanie instantly realized the trick the man in front of him was using. He was unhappy and upset. Even so, he did not panic and placed one of his hands on his chest in a narcissistic pose. “I’m Kanie Seiya, the manager of this park! Don’t misunderstand me! Yesterday, I happened to see a thief whose hair color was somewhat similar to this man. It makes sense for me to ask about his identity to verify if he’s the same person!”

Hearing this, the intensity of the other visitors’ gazes subsided.

Kanie was relieved, what he said was a lie. He gave Eiji a mocking smile because he had foiled his trick.

Eiji’s expression did not change and he nodded, “So that’s why you suspected me. Then… As a good citizen, I will cooperate with you. Let’s call the police, not only to prove my innocence, but also to help catch the real thief. Kanie, right? Don’t worry, let me call the police.”

“!?” While the other visitors were amazed at Eiji’s attitude because instead of being angry after being accused of being a thief, he was cooperative.

Kanie was dumbfounded, he didn’t deny the man in front of him would take this matter so seriously!

He wants to call the police!?

Seeing Eiji take out his cell phone from his pants pocket, he panicked and said, “Wait a minute!”

“What’s wrong, Kanie?” Eiji made a confused expression.

This man has evil intentions…!

Kanie couldn’t believe his heart was as innocent as his expression.

He was clearly acting.

As the gazes of the other visitors returned to him, Kanie felt he had dug a hole for himself.

How could he let Eiji call the police? After all, he lied about the thief!

In Amagi Brilliant Park, there was no theft at all!

“It’s okay, your attitude makes me believe that you’re not that thief.” Kanie said with a bitter smile.

He knew he was making a fool of himself and felt humiliated.

Eiji winked, “Even so, I still want to help you catch the thief. Let’s call the police.”

{Why are you so stubborn to call the police?!}

{Stop, don’t do that! I lied about the thief, there was no theft at all. I just wanted to make it harder for you to enter the park. There’s no way I’m saying this in front of the other visitors.}

{Damn it! My image as the perfect manager will be ruined! It’s your fault, now I’m even more convinced that you’re the bastard who targeted Latifah and Isuzu! You’re Eiji Seiya, right?!}

The heroines:

They were disgusted by protagonist Kanie’s actions to make things difficult for Eiji.

The corners of Eiji’s lips lifted higher.

This protagonist was really digging a hole for himself.

“No, you don’t have to—”

Before Kanie wanted to stop Eiji for any other reason, the sound of firm footsteps was heard and a beautiful woman in a red military uniform broke through the crowd.

“Kanie, enough! I didn’t expect you to make things difficult for our visitor by making up stories and accusing him of being a thief.”

It was Isuzu.

Kanie froze and frantically said, “Isuzu, you misunderstood! I just wanted to confirm if he was…”

“I said enough! I already know everything.”

After all, she heard the inner voices of him and Eiji in turn.

Isuzu was disappointed, and didn’t understand why Kanie was hostile to the person who could possibly cure Latifah, Eiji.

What if because of this, Eiji got angry and really didn’t want to help Latifah?

The other visitors looked at Kanie with disgust.

He was lying to make things difficult for a visitor!

“Kanie, you actually want to make things difficult for me? Why? This is the first time we’ve met, I don’t remember offending you.”

Eiji was still in his acting mode, he perfectly put himself in the position of a victim of injustice.

Many people would side with him and hate Kanie.

Any protagonist could not beat him in a game of words, Kanie was no exception.

He pointed at Eiji with a slightly trembling finger, “Stop, stop pretending! You’re setting me up!”

“Kanie…” Isuzu looked at the man who had saved Amagi Brilliant Park indifferently.

Unlike the Kanie she had known for three months, why did he look like this now?

She still didn’t know about the conversation between him and Latifah yesterday. So, she also didn’t understand why Kanie seemed to be trying to prevent Eiji from entering the park.

“Isuzu, believe me. This man has evil intentions towards me!” Kanie tried to save his image in the heart of one of the women he liked.

“Kanie, you’re the first one to find trouble with me. How could I have evil intentions towards you? Shouldn’t it be the other way around?”

Eiji shook his head.

The gaze Isuzu gave the protagonist became even colder.

[Host, you’re very good at sowing discord.]

Miss System… I’m the victim.

I wasn’t sowing discord between the protagonist and the heroine.

Miss System rolled her eyes, she couldn’t believe it.

“Nonsense! I was just asking for your identity, I wasn’t looking for trouble with you! But you’re magnifying such a small matter with your desire to call the police!”

Kanie did not admit his guilt.

Eiji ignored him and glanced at… “Isuzu, is this Latifah’s way of welcoming me or something? I’m disappointed.”

“Of course not! It’s not intentional, Eiji!”

Isuzu hurriedly denied, her voice sounding a little panicked.

Kanie felt uncomfortable hearing that, especially when he heard the name of the man in front of him.

“You are Eiji? Eiji Seiya? You’re that bastard!”

“Kanie, shut up!”

“But Isuzu…”

He did not finish his words because Isuzu was staring at him intently.

{Why?}

This song… I mean, protagonists often say why whenever things don’t go their way.

Many heroines fell silent.

The reason was obvious, it was because the protagonists were fighting Eiji!

Those who do will never get what they want.

{Is it just me or do Isuzu and Eiji have a good relationship? Why?! Isuzu and I have known each other for over three months. I also saved Amagi Brilliant Park, why is she defending Eiji and blaming me?!}

{I admit I was wrong, but I did it to protect her and Latifah!}

{Isuzu, why don’t you understand?}

Hearing Kanie’s inner voice, Isuzu was stunned for a moment and looked at him with a strange look.

She really didn’t understand why she and Latifah had to be protected.

Eiji was not a villain, he had only come to help Latifah and in return, they would pay him.

At this moment, he said, “Well, I’ll forget about this matter. Now, quickly take me to meet your princess.”

“Thank you Eiji.” Isuzu’s expression softened, not only because she knew she couldn’t beat him, she was relieved he hadn’t changed his mind.

Kanie wanted to say something, but he didn’t and clenched his fist when he saw Isuzu leading Eiji towards Latifah’s residence.

He must have followed them.

There was no way he would leave the two women he liked alone with Eiji in a room.

Isuzu was helpless, she knew she could not drive Kanie away. Eiji didn’t care about that and instead thought it was good that the protagonist was following them.

In the manager’s office.

Latifah seemed to be ready to welcome them as if she knew Eiji was coming, “Welcome, Eiji-san. Please forgive us because you seemed to have some trouble before coming here.”

After all, she heard the inner voices of him and Kanie.

She knew the quarrel between the two of them.

Kanie felt embarrassed, especially when Latifah glanced at him wordlessly. At the same time, he hated Eiji even more.

This was his fault!

Ever since he came, Latifah and Isuzu’s attitude towards him had turned cold.

“It’s fine, this is the second time we’ve met.”

Eiji waved his hand casually, and walked over to Latifah.

“What do you want to do?! Eiji, don’t try to touch her!”

“Kanie, stop making a fuss!”

Seeing Kanie was about to do something bad, Isuzu hurriedly kicked his leg until he fell down and stepped on his back.

Kanie didn’t expect he would receive such violence from Isuzu, he groaned in pain and his expression became ugly.

“Kanie, sorry. But you gave me no choice.” Isuzu said and increased her strength.

“Isuzu, you’re treating me like that just because of Eiji?!”

Kanie thrashed about. Unfortunately, he was helpless and could only watch as Eiji grabbed Latifah’s slender hand.

His eyes were red.

He was angry to see the woman he liked being touched by another man.

His pride as a perfectionist was being stepped on.

Isuzu did not answer, she pretended to be deaf to whatever Kanie said.

“Eiji-san, are you doing an examination on me first?” Latifah asked with some embarrassment.

Eiji smiled and nodded, “Yes, the results are not bad. You have beautiful and cute hands, Latifah.”

“Ehhh!? You’re not checking my curse, but checking how good my hands are?!”

Latifah was confused.

Isuzu was silent.

Kanie shouted again, “My guess was right! Eiji, you’re a fraud who wants to take advantage of Latifah!”

Eiji ignored the protagonist and continued to look at the beautiful woman in front of him, “Just kidding, besides checking the quality of your hands, I’ve also checked the curse on your body. Now I’m sure I can remove it.”

“Eiji, stop your nonsense— Ah! It hurts! It hurts! Isuzu, do you want to break my back!?”

Isuzu took out her rifle and pointed it at Kanie’s head. “Shut up.”

“…..” Kanie was saddened, although this was not the first time Isuzu had threatened him with her rifle, now he felt a pain in his heart.

“Eiji-san, really? Is there anything you need to do?”

Latifah was so excited that she didn’t care that her hand was being held by Eiji.

Before answering, Eiji glanced at the protagonist Kanie in the corner of his eyes for a moment.

Kanie had a bad feeling.

“Yes… and no.”

Everyone in the room felt Eiji was playing with their feelings.

But Latifah and Isuzu were very patient.

Kanie thought it was unfair!

They tolerated Eiji so much, but didn’t do the same for him.

“What do you mean, Eiji-san?”

Eiji used Anos’ creation magic and with his magical knowledge, he made a small crystal bottle filled with a glowing dark red liquid.

It was a potion that worked somewhat similar to the Phoenix Tears of the devils in the Phenex family. The difference was that he made it with a drop of his blood and the essence of a very small destructive magic.

The effect is enough to heal any wound or illness. It could also destroy foreign or unwanted magic without harming the host’s body.

He programmed it precisely to only target and unravel the magical patterns of the curse on Latifah’s body, while his blood would simultaneously rebuild the damaged tissue instantly and painlessly.

The potion was essentially a liquid magical “program”. When consumed, it instantly absorbed into the target’s magical circulation system, identified the damage or curse, and instantly executed the “remove and rebuild” command.

Eiji called it…

“This is the Universal Healing Potion. With this, your curse will be removed. I just need you to drink it.”

Latifah hesitated, then grabbed the bottle from his hand. “It’s not a difficult thing, Eiji-san. I’ve drunk potions before.”

In the past, she had drunk all sorts of healing potions to get rid of her curse.

However, none of them worked.

However, the potion in her hand was very different. She had a premonition that she would actually be healed.

“Don’t drink that! Latifah, we don’t know if what he says is true or not! You can’t just trust him! That potion might be poison!”

Latifah frowned and looked at Kanie flatly, “Seiya-kun, I appreciate your worry. But I trust Eiji-san. Not only that, there’s no reason for him to poison me.”

After all, she knew he wanted her to be his wife.

Kanie wanted to say Latifah was too naive, but it was too late. She drank the potion Eiji had given her.

Latifa drank the contents of the bottle in her hand in one gulp. Within seconds, her expression changed. Her normally rather somber eyes brightened, and she gasped slightly.

“I… I remember everything! I remember everything I’ve done in the previous years! It worked!”

“Does that mean that now I too…”

She glanced at Eiji as if she wanted him to answer for her.

Eiji put his hand on her shoulder, “Congratulations, not only did you get rid of the curse to reset your memory once a year, you can also now grow bigger and prettier.”

The last part he said made Latifah blush and hug him in front of protagonist Kanie.

“Eiji-san… no, my husband. Thank you very much!”

“You’re welcome, I did it to get a woman as beautiful as you and Isuzu in my harem.”

Hearing what Eiji said honestly, Isuzu also blushed and of course was very grateful to him.

He really succeeded in removing Latifah’s curse.

Her fondness for him instantly skyrocketed and kicked Kanie’s position in her heart. She also congratulated Latifah before…

“Isuzu, come here. Let me hug you and don’t worry about Kanie, he won’t do anything for a while.” Eiji said while using Ruler’s Authority to hold the protagonist in position.

“A-All right, Eiji.”

Isuzu shyly and awkwardly walked up to her husband. She did not resist when he wrapped his arms around her waist and even kissed her cheek.

“…!” Isuzu was startled, and Kanie widened his eyes.

“My husband, you’re not being fair. I want to be kissed like Isuzu too.” Latifah begged for a kiss from her husband.

Eiji grinned, “Sure.”

In front of the protagonist Kanie, he also kissed Latifah. In both hands, he hugged her and Isuzu together.

{Aahhhh!}

Protagonist Kanie roared in his heart, his face looking green.

[Ora Ora Ora!]

Eiji imitated the signature cry of protagonist Jotaro Kujo in the anime and manga series “JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure”

{Aaaaahhh!}

[Ora Ora Ora!]

The heroines: What are you two doing?! Stop screaming inside our heads!

Kanie glared at the three people in front of him, while he squirmed like a worm on the floor. “Latifah, Isuzu… are you letting him play with you?! He’s claiming you two as his harem members! That’s an immoral act!”

Eiji tightened his embrace on the two women in his arms, and looked down on the protagonist. “That’s a fair price for the normal life Latifah yearns for. I didn’t even force her and Isuzu.”

“A fair price?! You didn’t force? Eiji, you’re shameless!”

Latifah finally spoke up, her voice sounding annoyed. “Seiya-san, please stop. I’m tired of forgetting my memories in every year and being trapped in my current physical age. This price… I don’t mind paying it and don’t feel forced at all.”

She thought Eiji was not bad, he was very handsome and ever since she kissed him, she felt more and more like him.

Or rather his initiative in pursuing her to do all this. A perfectionist like Kanie who always wanted women to take the initiative to pursue him hardly gave her the same feeling.

“I don’t mind either. Kanie, please don’t make a fuss again just because of this matter.” Isuzu said while looking at the protagonist seriously.

Kanie was silent, his anger mixed with pain like an NTR victim because two women he liked gave themselves to another man.

He wanted to stand up and lunge at Eiji, but was unable to move and just writhed on the floor.

The feeling of being trampled and humiliated like this made him vomit blood.

“Pufft!”

Then, he fainted.

Compared to the other protagonists, Kanie had even less endurance than Gojo.

He couldn’t stand just seeing Eiji hugging the two women he liked and kissing them.

Eiji looked at him with a disappointed expression.

[To be a protagonist with the same last name as me, Kanie… You’re not much different from the protagonists I’ve slapped in the past.]

The heroines fell silent.

Maybe it’s not that the protagonists are too weak and they disappoint you, but that you are too strong a villain, Eiji.

…

A/N: Do any of you have any recommendations for Eiji’s next reward?
