No One's POV

"How are you, your majesty?"

Taehyung, who's half alive after being tortured, opened his eyes and saw Mr. and Mrs. Lee looking at him from the other side of room, looking at him through the transparent door that divides the room. Pity was in their faces but their faces were mostly covered by victorious smile and vibe.

Taehyung, tried to move but he completely forgot that he was tied down in the chair.

"Sorry because that's only the chair we can give you for the moment," Mrs. Lee said.

Taehyung smirked, "If this is the best chair the master and the lady of the house Lee can give me then I won't asked for another, fancier and grander."

"But your majesty, we can give you more comfortable chair than that filthy thing. More comfortable, that suits your majesty," Mrs. Lee said.

"What is for you then?" Taehyung asked with a smirk, but he answered his own question. "Ability? And become a human deity?" he scoffed in disbelief.

"It isn't much for you, right your majesty?" Mr. Lee said. "After all, all you have to do is to touch us and then we have abilities right? If you turn us to human deities, we can end the deity hunting and free your-I mean, our kind from the threat."

"Such greedy people really exist in this world huh? Seeing them really makes me sick."

"Quite tempting offer but I'll decline," he said with a smile. His expression then became serious, "You people are narrow-minded to think I'll bestow you abilities. Even the trusted families of Seo, Im and Park, that's been protecting us since day one, I didn't even bestow them abilities so why would I bestow you abilities?"

"But aren't your majesty want to free your kind from the threat of the deity hunting? If we became human deities, if the Lee family will to become human deities, we can save our fellow kinds, with our influence and power," Mrs. Lee said.

But Taehyung couldn't see anything in their eyes but greed.

"Indeed, I wish to free my kind in the threat of the deity hunting, but not by increasing their number, but increasing their level of adaptability in living as a normal human. We don't need greedy human deities in the making that will go beyond the rules that are set up by our once king and break them," Taehyung said.

"By running away you mean, right your majesty?" Mr. Lee asked with a smirk.

"Are they making me feel pathetic for running away? Well, sorry for them because I don't care."

Taehyung proudly smiled, "Of course, and I'm proud of it because we don't want violence."

"And do you really think the other human deities will abide you forever, your majesty?" Mrs. Lee asked.

Both of them are already sick of persuading the royal descendant, and of course Taehyung was able to see this that's why he kept going.

Taehyung smirked but still intimidated them, "You don't have to worry about that, unlike you filthy normal humans, we, human deities are true to each other and will never betray each other, and yes, that runs in our blood." They were about to say something but Taehyung started to talk again. "I'm sure you two are tried in persuading me, just to let you know you can rest now and come back or maybe never, because no matter how you persuade me, I will never bestow you abilities."

Both of them smirked in disbelief.

"You're tougher than I thought," Mrs. Lee said. "But okay fine, if his majesty wants us to rest, then shall we?" she asked to her husband.
