"Are you joking? How can a life be that short?" Ares who recovered don't know what face is he making. 

"It's not short for humans." Ares pressed his lips into a thin line. While Cronus stared at Selene deeply. 

"Then, do you still want to go home?" Cronus asked in a low tone. Selene nod. 

"Of course, that's where I belong." The topic regarding lifespan was nulled.

Ares doesn't wanna hear it, being the usual him, he chooses to evade and deny.

Cronus shut up, deep in his thoughts. Considering what he should do after hearing that, her life span was not half or even a quarter of his.

Being of royal blood grants them to live longer than anyone else. Five hundred years compare to eighty years...it's just like a passing time for them. How old is she now? Did that subtract to eighty? It became even shorter. 

They have preambulated from the border to the central of Fos. The old witch has given them the direction where they could find the being they are looking for. 

Back then, the old witch had a friend, who died earlier than anyone. Their small tribe was considered as the being who dies fastest in the Fos. Weaker than anyone and even have no ability. Some say they have angered a God, that is why they suffer. 

With all the similar depictions, Selene concluded they are humans residing in this world. 

If they could enter here, then that means they could go outright?

"Hi." Landing on the ground, she approaches a little girl. The girl looked up at her and immediately run off inside the store. 

"You," she looked at her behind where the little girl was looking earlier. "You guys, stroll around. I will talk to them."

Selene said in a problematic tone. Scratching her head as she eyed the two gorgeous men guarding her back. Ever since the day that they have entered the Fos region, this two have been sending a dangerous atmosphere to everyone.

That she could even feel by instinct. It feels like a predatory vibe that has just given birth to a baby. Similar to a ticking bomb that will go off any time if someone made a move to hurt the three of them.  

"Why? We will come with you." Cronus retracted with a strict tone.

"Well, I guess you scared the kid." She muttered trying to make it sound not that harsh. 

"Scared her? With my face? How am I scary?" Ares' face becomes distorted as she listened to her proclamation. She made a face that irritates him even more. This human.

"Oh, the fact that you are a vampire, maybe?" Selene added sarcastically. 

"Stop being sarcastic." Narrowing his eye, she glared at her. Rolling her eyes, she shifted her gaze to Cronus made a more soft expression. 

"You should stroll in the vicinity, I'll call you if something happens." Cronus had nothing else to protest. After all that she says is always absolute for him. 

"Okay, get inside." Nodding he made a stance outside the store, looking like a handsome bodyguard with a sexy outfit. 

"I'll be back soon." Selene opened the door of the store which looks like a tatami store from Japan. 

"Hello?" She called out and saw a woman. 

"How can I help you milady?" She asked with precaution. Smiling Selene stretched her hand. 

"I have to inquire about something, I am looking for humans." She stated. The woman's face changes its expression. She becomes more serious. 

"Humans?"
