Vixon Hired by Yohan as a Second Assistant is the decisive opening of Vixon’s formal connection to Yohan’s company. What begins as a request for employment becomes an act of immediate rescue: Vixon has lost his previous job, is short of money, and has been starving, while Yohan’s private fondness makes rejection difficult. Yohan’s impulsive offer creates a second-assistant position, places Vixon beneath an already established office arrangement with Kazumi, and gives their later relationship a direct economic and institutional foundation.

Causes and Background

Vixon approaches Yohan with a practical question about whether the company has an available position. The request surprises Yohan, who had apparently assumed that Vixon already had work. Yohan’s response is shaped by more than ordinary recruitment: he admits inwardly that Vixon is his crush and that he does not want to reject the application. Nervousness makes him answer with the vague position of “Assistant,” turning an improvised reply into an actual job offer.

The immediate reason for Vixon’s application is financial distress. He explains that he was fired from his job, does not know where to find money, and has gone hungry for several days. Yohan reacts with pity rather than conducting a formal evaluation of qualifications or suitability. The hiring therefore emerges from the overlap of compassion and attraction. Vixon needs food and income; Yohan possesses the authority to provide both, and his personal feelings make that authority especially susceptible to impulsive use.

The Hiring Decision

Yohan tells Vixon, “Okay, you're hired.” The decision is presented as instantaneous, with no evidence of a competitive process, probationary negotiation, or comparison with other candidates. Vixon’s surprise confirms how quickly the interview changes direction. His response is not merely professional relief: after thanking Yohan, he hugs him and says that he will finally be able to eat. The physical embrace intensifies the emotional force of the transaction, and Yohan experiences it as something that melts his heart.

Yohan then instructs Vixon to begin the following day and allows him to roam around the company to familiarize himself with the workplace. The arrangement combines a clear start date with informal access to the organization. Vixon is not only given employment but also an immediate path into Yohan’s daily environment, where professional proximity can develop into personal familiarity. The offer thus solves Vixon’s immediate material crisis while opening a much wider field of dependency and attachment.

Workplace Structure and Tension

The new appointment immediately complicates the company’s existing hierarchy. When Kazumi asks about another assistant, Yohan explains that Vixon was fired from his job and had no food, presenting the hiring as an unavoidable act of mercy. Kazumi’s skeptical reaction shows that the decision is not treated as a neutral administrative matter. Yohan must justify why Vixon has been admitted, and his explanation emphasizes poverty rather than professional need.

Later, Yohan proposes moving Vixon to a vacant room on the eighth floor. The suggestion is partly a workplace-management decision and partly a way of creating distance within the office. Kazumi points out that their own office is on the sixth floor, so the relocation would place Vixon higher rather than farther away in any simple sense. The exchange reveals how physical office placement becomes entangled with interpersonal tension: floors, rooms, meetings, schedules, and access are all part of the company’s power structure.

The organization also contains a clear operational network beyond the assistants. When Nestor is ill and cannot drive, Yohan receives notice that Delphin, Crusio, Dan, Kanor, Sander, and Falley are available but that one driver is still missing. Yohan decides to go and look for another driver himself. This detail places Vixon’s hiring inside a larger system of assistants, workers, drivers, and managerial decisions rather than an isolated private favor. The company depends on delegated labor, but Yohan retains the authority to rearrange duties when the system fails.

Secrecy and Later Consequences

The hiring’s consequences extend beyond Vixon’s first day. Later, when Kazumi is visibly pregnant and no longer wears oversized clothes, Yohan orders the company workers not to tell Vixon about the pregnancy. The workers obey, leaving Vixon unaware. This secrecy demonstrates how the company’s formal hierarchy can be used to control personal information: Yohan converts employees into a protective barrier around Kazumi and turns workplace obedience into a mechanism for concealing a major private fact.

Kazumi’s pregnancy is particularly significant because the surrounding circumstances make it difficult to separate office administration from intimate conflict. Yohan manages schedules, meetings, office locations, and employee knowledge while also attempting to regulate who can see or learn about Kazumi’s condition. Vixon’s original entry into the company as a hungry, unemployed applicant therefore becomes the foundation for a later structure of concealed information and unequal access. The compassionate appointment does not remain a single act of kindness; it produces obligations, proximity, suspicion, and opportunities for manipulation.

The later violence associated with the broader conflict gives the original employment decision an even darker retrospect. Vixon eventually enters Yohan’s home carrying a gun taken from the police and demands that the household staff reveal Yohan’s location, threatening to shoot them if they refuse. This confrontation is not part of the hiring scene itself, but it shows how far the relationship’s institutional beginning can be displaced by hostility. The man once welcomed because he could not afford food ultimately uses force to penetrate Yohan’s private space.

Narrative Significance

The event establishes a central contradiction in Yohan’s authority. He is capable of practical care: he responds to hunger, offers immediate work, and gives Vixon a place in a functioning company. Yet the same authority is personal and discretionary. The position is created in nervous improvisation, shaped by a crush, and defended through an emotional explanation to Kazumi. Employment is therefore never purely professional in this narrative; it is also a language through which desire, pity, access, and control are distributed.

Vixon’s appointment also creates the structural triangle that drives the later story. Kazumi is already present as Yohan’s assistant, Vixon becomes the additional assistant, and Yohan stands at the center of both administrative and emotional decisions. The arrangement places the two assistants in relation to one another while giving Yohan control over their schedules, offices, information, and continued proximity. The event’s significance lies less in the job title itself than in the network it activates: a desperate application becomes an act of rescue, the rescue becomes workplace dependency, and that dependency later carries the force of betrayal and conflict.
