Princess: Can Anyone Else Do That?!
How is that possible?
How could anyone in this world possibly refuse the invitation from the young lady, the queen?!
In Sakuya Izayoi's eyes, Remilia was simply a perfect being. She was so cute and wise that she easily won over Sakuya, a vampire hunter who came to assassinate Remilia. In Sakuya's eyes, Remilia was simply a savior for a sinful villain like herself.
Of course, this is not entirely the head maid's delusion. Remilia's ability is the 'ability to manipulate the degree of fate,' which is an ability activated in a normal state.
Besides her daily behavior exhibiting the highest level of the Golden Rule—finding treasures while out and about, falling off cliffs to find secret manuals, and getting shot always being due to something hard in her pocket blocking the way—this is also reflected in how Remilia's Fate ability activates when someone extends a "King's Invitation" (wanting to make friends with someone), making her exceptionally charming and irresistible, ultimately turning people into her best friends.
In terms of making friends, Remilia's ability is even stronger than Marisa's, who has the "eat my magic cannon and you'll become my friend" Marisa. Patchouli and the head maid are the same people who are born this way. It's just that Patchouli is a proud little bat who usually has no intention of making friends. So, like Golden Gilgamesh, who has a similar personality, she sealed away her strongest ability, "Star of Omniscience and Omnipotence," and gets her elbow chopped off every day. Remilia, on the other hand, sealed away the ability "King's Invitation." Even though her strongest ability is to be cute, she insists on fighting with others using combat, which she is not good at. The result is naturally that she usually covers her head and squats in defense.
But
So-called fate is nothing but a sleeping slave!
Mo Yi usually possesses the abilities of Star Guardian Bard, who is essentially an otherworldly savior from the Alliance Universe, a powerful figure skilled in manipulating time, energy, fate, and causality. Although Mo Yi hasn't fully grasped his abilities yet, and can only use them while possessing Bard's abilities, his resistance to these abilities has reached a very high level. In particular, when possessing Bard, his passive skill 'Harmony' not only allows Mo Yi level up quickly but also disrupts and resists the abilities of the concept body acting on him.
After all, the principle of the Harmonious Sound (also known as the Traveler's Call) is to resonate with the sound of the universe, just as when lightning strikes a tree, most of its current is guided to the earth.
Therefore, Remilia's invitation to the Queen was of no use to Mo Yi, who had long since transcended the ultimate test of humanity— the Loli Con!
Why?!
At this moment, Sakuya Izayoi really couldn't understand why Mo Yi could refuse Remilia's King's Invitation. After feeling relieved, she was also annoyed!
What?
The young lady is so cute, how could you reject her? Do you look down on the young lady whom I, Sakuya Izayoi, swore to protect with my entire life?
Of course, Mo Yi had no interest in speculating about Sakuya Izayoi's complex psychological changes, nor did he care whether it was necessary to pay attention to them.
"Nari (=@__@=)!"
Remilia never expected that her sincere (in her own opinion) invitation would be rejected. For someone with Remilia's EX-level luck, aside from her sister's uncontrollable and maniacal abilities, Remilia had never suffered a setback. This was utterly incomprehensible. (Of course, after entering Gensokyo, the young lady suffered many setbacks. First, she was brutally beaten by the city guard Hakurei Reimu, then she flew to the moon to cause trouble, and was instantly defeated by Moon Yuyuko, forced to crouch in defensive positions. As for why her EX-level luck failed her, it's probably Gensokyo is an uncommon world, rendering even her exceptional luck ineffective.)
You should know that Remilia has never failed to invite someone sincerely, so she finally experienced her first setback in life, being rejected by Mo Yi with his tactful yet decisive words.
"How is this possible?!"
Remilia's cool invitation and confident smile gradually stiffened. Although Mo Yi's words were polite and reasonable, they were also direct in stating that there was no need to talk about treatment anymore. This was not a matter of money, and you could not steal the Princess's man!
Someone actually dared to refuse her regal magnanimity!
Although she was angry, she didn't harbor too much ill will towards Mo Yi, because Mo Yi's reason for refusing was to repay the Princess's kindness, just like the reason why her most important subordinate, head maid Sakuya Izayoi, was loyal to her.
It was precisely because she had Sakuya Izayoi by her side, who had spoiled her, that Remilia understood and cherished this relationship even more.
But!
With such beauty in her heart, Remilia longed for even more beauty, and then used it to create more dreamlike and wonderful moments.
With such a loyal subordinate, Remilia wanted her even more. This way, she could enjoy her life of slacking off even more, and Sakuya Izayoi wouldn't have to work so hard, always having to shoulder the entire operation of the Scarlet Devil Mansion all by herself.
I, Remilia Castle, am absolutely brilliant!
"What an interesting man—"
Having figured things out, Remilia struck a cool Dio pose again, facing Mo Yi sideways with one hand on her face, revealing only one scarlet eye (the comic book source is Patchouli's Library), and laughed wildly, "But, you know, fate is that no one knows what will happen next."
"The only one who can control their destiny is me Remilia Scarlet, and you will be guided by destiny to become the head chef of my Scarlet Devil Mansion!"
Remilia thought to herself, "Since your approach won't work, I'll find the person in charge of Eientei and unleash my money power directly. I refuse to believe that Houraisan Kaguya can withstand the bombardment of my Gate of Babylon of Remilia with my omnipotent money power!"
Loyal you, when you hear Houraisan Kaguya, the one you serve, ask you to switch your allegiance to me, what will you choose?
That's right. Whether you obey their orders or feel resentful because of it, you will eventually become my new servant, Remilia!
Mo Yi: "..."
Mo Yi, standing to the side, didn't know how to comment. Apart from Sakuya Izayoi, who still had a cheerful smile on her face, Patchouli and Koakuma turned their faces away in embarrassment. This was because Remilia, while maintaining Dio's classic pose, had unconsciously muttered all her inner monologues.
Unexpectedly, Remilia came up with such a blatant scheme in such a short time. If Mo Yi is indeed Kaguya's subordinate as he claims, the Princess might actually fall for it given Remilia's immense financial power.
After all, aren't subordinates meant to maximize their value at the most opportune time?
Moreover, Her Highness the Princess didn't send Mo Yi to deliver hero experience; she simply asked Mo Yi to switch jobs to a place with double the salary. It was a perfect ending for all three parties.
"That sounds pretty good—"
At that moment, Mo Yi suddenly heard the Princess's familiar voice.
"But I refuse!"
"The thing I, Houraisan Kaguya, love to do most is to say to those arrogant people, 'Taka, kotowaru (But I'm resolute)!'"

P. S.: Because there were quite a few words, I had to write while simultaneously generating interesting images and inspirations. Then I searched for information on Baidu, which led to this late hour. Lately, a very interesting idea for a new book has popped into my head, one that I feel could be a hit (laughs), but I don't have the time or energy to write two books at once. So I'm just writing down these ideas in a notebook to use later.
Chapter 166, Kiana - Pufferfish Arc 1.21: Faced with the aggressive Miss Pufferfish, Mo Yi panicked. He felt it wouldn't be right to agree directly; it would be irresponsible to both of them. But then he thought, if she went this far and he refused, wouldn't she be embarrassed and turn into a single-core Pufferfish Beast, causing a Honkai?! "Mo Yi, I'll treat you very well—" Kiana leaned against the wall, looking at Mo Yi with tears and pleading in her eyes, yet she forced a strong tone as she said, "I'm very, very serious. I won't marry anyone but you!" Kiana: That's right, I won't marry anyone but you, but I can marry Mei, Bronya, and the electric donkey! I, Kiana, always keep my word!
Chapter 279: Princess: Can anyone else do it?!
This beautiful voice is one that Mo Yi will never forget!
That's right, it was Her Highness the Princess who suddenly appeared next to Mo Yi. She was striking a classic Cooling Air Conditioner Jotaro pose, wearing a hat on her head, and pointing her right index finger at Remilia was posing like Fish Seller Qiang.
Because Remilia was standing on a stool, Her Highness the Princess didn't need to point downwards. "Where? You actually—"
Remilia was startled by the sudden appearance of the Her Highness the Princess, and even more so by the fact that the princess actually recited the classic poses and lines she remembered from reading comics.
What surprised her was that the Her Highness the Princess had actually read the comic book that was still by her pillow, and the princess's poses and delivery were incredibly cool. (After all, Remilia was a loli.)
Of course, when it comes to knowledge of 2D, Her Highness the Princess is undoubtedly the strongest in all of Gensokyo. Someone like Remilia, who has only read a few scattered manga at LV1, is as insignificant as stardust in the eyes of Her Highness the Princess, who has already ascended to godhood at LV6, and can be seen by the wind.
The world as seen through the eyes of a master is never something a newbie can comprehend or even glimpse.
Remilia imitated Dio because he was a vampire. In fact, in terms of ability, the Princess's ability was more suitable. However, Remilia had a head maid who could stop time, and with her help, she could easily do a lot of things.
"Houraisan Kaguya— "
Remilia panicked when she saw the Her Highness the Princess suddenly appear. Just imagine if someone dared to steal Sakuya Izayoi from her Scarlet Devil Mansion, she would smash their head in.
She had spoken quite confidently, but when she actually faced the Her Highness the Princess, she felt a little guilty. However, having already spoken, she couldn't simply back down, especially after being mocked by the Princess. She coughed and said, "You're here just in time—"
