Chapter 117 - Mister Shy Guy

"Sire. What are we going to do about the other offer "of less importance" as that King in Lav Kingdom send word about on the recent shipment?"

Asked Seer concerning such matter. The Blacksmiths are spread thin but the offer is so great for something so small and doable.

"I have to say, i didn't expect that offer. I expected a request for more Weapons if not anything from a Continent with over 3 Million people living there."

Said Zar who was still a bit surprised of this offer.

"So we won't make Iron rings for the Zamerians?"

"I need to consult with the main Blacksmiths. If they have the ability to finish the order in a short time without slowing down their other order, i'm willing to start providing those Iron Rings."

"Certainly Sire. I'll get them right now."

As Seer was walking his way out of the Castle, he met a stunning woman of which he hired a few weeks ago heading towards where the Doc.u.mentations are usually stored. He met Maleesa.

Maleesa is an Ignite women who lost her Husband years ago due to the Civil War, Seer shared the same fate towards his Fiance of which he was heavily in love with.

Now Seer is 48 years old and single, and Maleesa shares a similar fate being 44 Years old.

After they lost the ones they loved so deeply, they just didn't want to marry anyone else. Their hearts felt like they were shred to pieces.

"If it isn't the guy who got me a job!"

Calmly said Maleesa in a bit of gratitude but at the same time in a bit of a playful matter.

"Yes, it's me."

Said Seer Awkwardly as he got shy every time he was around her. His mind went blank.

After struggling a couple of times to form a sentence, he said

"Why...how.. have you been these days. I figure that the employees aren't giving you any trouble."

"No no. I don't allow them too. For example instead of tracking every employee on foot, i made a big list which holds all of Employe's names and categorized each craft."

She said with an enthusiastic tone which is rather adorable to see which got Seer adoring her even more.

"So you can count the working hours."

Said Seer who interrupted her mid sentence, finishing the sentence for her.

"Exactly. The most experienced keep an eye on everyone else, especially the experiencless who might draw any tricks."

"But do you make sure that they arrive at work on time?"

"Yes. Before they start working, they have to check in here in my office which barely takes any time even if they are all lined up at once."

"What about the working hours?"

Asked Seer yet another question which sounded a bit paranoid and he was probably blowing his chances with this, but the mouth speaks by itself when her blue eyes are looking at him.

"I keep a separate list for that dont worry. But considering some employees who work even in a free day, there is work all week for me. The Blacksmiths aren't leaving any day for their selves. I figure their order is big."

"Oh yes and it is about to be bigger. I'm about to get the most experienced ones here for another order the Zamerians send message for."

And he shortly added as he saw the sparks of conversation going down thanks to his freestyling mouth

"Which means I need to be on my way now miss Maleesa."

After he said that, due to his shyness towards her he awkwardly started walking before giving a proper goodbye.

But Maleesa grabbed him by the wrist and said

"How about you meet me after work today."

She said looking directly at his eyes with such glow and compassion.

Her entire face was smiling, it was hard to say no even if he didn't like her.

He swallowed his spit and said

"Ugh you mean like a..."

He failed to finish the sentence and his face was getting red so he loosened his shirt up around the neck area.

"Yes. Don't take this the wrong way. But i want to get to know you. If that doesn't bother you."

"No no. I would love too. What time works best for you?"

Sliding down her hand from his wrist to his hand, holding it firmly but gently she replied with

"How about after 7pm. I'm sure you are busy most of the day trying to assist this Kingdom. You will have time to rest well before our..."

Even she was too shy to finish that sentence. Which was rather adorable.

"Date?"

He said without actually intending too. it just went out there and he instantly regretted it for a second but became happy once her intent became crystal clear.

"Oh so you are a brave man now. Mister Shy guy."

She said in aims to tease him more and to fight off the shyness from herself.

"I was never shy."

He exclaimed but quickly calmed down when he saw her golden hair getting blown by the Wind making her a lot more beautiful. She even looks youthful, she looks in her early thirties at least.

"Meet me at 7 in the Kingdom Center. I don't intend to get drunk so no Taverns. Alright?"

She said with a firm clear tone declaring Dominance.

Which seemed less threatening considering she is 5.5ft tall.

"Oh no no. I didn't touch beer for years now. Messes with my concentration afterwards to much, i need concentration if not anything else for my job."

He said finally able to form a sentence without awkwardly mumbling.

"Perfect. Now go ahead and finish what you were doing Mister Shy Guy."
