A new day yet the Prince born in hell was still meditating on the floor since last night. His meridians were all messed up because of the poison he consumed. It would be a very difficult road way ahead if he wants to go back using his own energy.

He could feel his mana trying to flow through his meridians but was constantly blocked. Thus,he needs to concentrate on purifying the mana paths in his body. From last night to till now,he could not even gather a pollen amount of mana. It was frustrating.

He flinched when the door was opened,it was a slight careful move yet it still disturbed his concentration. However,he frowned feeling something strange in his system. He could not pinpoint what was it nor did he have time to think about it when the idiot of the house decided to speak up.

"You haven't slept?",An almost hushed tone questioned.

Storm opened his eyes slowly and looked at Heeseung who had already washed up and worn his clothes. The clothes he wore were very different from his world's outfits. Though it was unfamiliar for his eyes,he still thought they were attractive. But why holes though? Heeseung's pants had holes everywhere. A ripped trouser? Didn't he say he was rich? Then why is he wearing beggar clothes? But he liked the black and white shirt tucked in to the trouser. And black chain around him was nice too.

Storm went to ignoring him and closed his eyes,and a frown fell upon his lips. He spent hours trying to gather mana all night but suddenly,within two seconds of Heeseung's interruption,he could gather a very little amount of mana. It was barely a drop of mana yet it happened.

"You know,you need more clothes and my outfits are too small for you. I was wondering....uh..."

"What"

Storm opened one eye waiting for Heeseung to complete his sentence and get lost.

Heeseung grinned like an idiot,"Why don't we...uh go shopping today? We can buy you some clothes and...maybe a new haircut? Your hair is fine trust me I like it —I mean,it's good! But since you are here,umm why don't we try new things? If you want of course"

Storm stayed silent for a minute before standing up startling Heeseung. "Alright",with that he left to the bathroom.

Heeseung sighed a relief after the successful conversation he had with the hell spawn.

Storm headed to the bathroom and washed up,and had to wear the same outfit even though he fucking hated wearing the same clothes again for the second time. He looked at himself on the mirror and frowned looking at his eyes. "Wouldn't this be a problem?"

His eyes were two different colours. It normally attracts a lot of attention but he was not sure how it works here. After leaving the room,he headed to the living room to see Heeseung on the couch,staring at a black box? Just what's up with that?

When Heeseung looked up,he smiled,"Ready?"

Storm was still getting used to his strange expressions. He doesn't seem to have one particular personality. The guy was full of different personalities. How could he smile like that to a person who treats him as a servant? And the fucker does not even know manners of a servant.

Heeseung stood up,shoving the black box into his pants,"Let's go"

"You're going like that?",Storm suddenly wanted to remind him his pant holes. "Aren't you embarrassed to walk in begger clothes?"

Heeseung looked at his outfit with a confused look,"What do you mean? Begger clothes? Hey!! These are expensive clothes!"

Storm raised an eyebrow,"There are holes"

Heeseung seemed to understand what he meant. He giggled,"That's the fashion now"

Storm scoffed,"Don't even think about buying me begger fashion"

Heeseung turned around,walking towards the door,"Trust me,you are going to love them"

"Tsk,in your dreams. And mind your manners,I'm your master"

Even though Storm could not see,he could feel Heeseung's invisible glares. It was fun teasing him. The reactions were hilarious to him. "By the way,am I not going to attract attention? My eyes are different"

Heeseung looked back and stared right into his eyes. The nerve of this man to look straight into his eyes. What kind of a servant does that!! Should he poke out his eyes?

"You are not the one to care about them",Heeseung replied. "Beside,they are pretty lovely. I bet,an agency would approach you even if you go out even in your pajamas. Modeling,acting,you could try earning money with those eyes and looks without even sweating. You got the height too and I'm too fucking jealous"

Storm was taken back by all the shower of praises. Was he that handsome? Well,he had thought that he wasn't that bad but never really had a time to seriously give a thought about his looks. Well,he could give his parents a little gratitude there for atleast giving him a pleasant look.

"But here"

Heeseung threw something in the air and he caught it in the hands. A black pair of specks?

"Sunglasses. Wear it if you don't want attention even though it's pointless with your uh...",he pointed at his body and cleared his throat,"You are tall. Let's go"

Storm shrugged and wore the sunglasses. He was wearing a baggy pants and shirts from last night. Was it really fine to go out like that?

What Storm didn't know was how he would be killing ladies with those serving looks of his. And he failed to notice Heeseung's red ears.

After the elevator ride to the underground parking area,Heeseung walked ahead towards his car. He was glad that Storm didn't ask too many questions about the technology here. It would have been hella difficult to explain everything to him. Storm didn't seem fazed at all by all the technology either. If he saw something strange,he would just shrug and walk along with Heeseung.

The man was too cool for this world. After all,he could do everything with his mana powers if he wanted.

But this is Heeseung's world now. Storm needs him in this vast unknown world. He opened the passenger seat of his Bugatti and bowed like a butler,"After you master"

Heeseung could feel a glare from Storm as he silently sat down in the car. Well,guess what,the big guy might be secretly overwhelmed even though he is not saying anything at the moment. If not,why isn't he even trying to counter attack Heeseung with his nasty comments?

When Heeseung got into the driver seat,he looked at Storm,"You need to put on seat belts"

Storm raised an eyebrow,"..."

Of course he wouldn't know.

Heeseung,"Let me"

So,Heeseung being a good little servant,he leaned towards Storm and grabbed the seat belt. Heeseung paused seeing Storm's stiff body. He's still keeping his guard up against Heeseung.

He smiled slightly as he looked into Storm's eyes through the sunglasses. Their faces were only few inches apart from each other. So close,invasion of personal space. "Storm",It was Heeseung's first time calling his name after their first meeting in the woods. And it somehow felt strange to call him by his name. "I'm a weak human. I can never hurt you",His words came out as a hushed tone. Carefully chosen. As if he is handling a delicate glass which would break any time soon. "So,...you can relax around me. Trust me. I'm. Only. A. Weak. Human"

Click

The belt was clicked into its rightful place.

Yet they were still staring at each other.

Heeseung did not know what Storm was thinking since he could not see his eyes,but Storm was not pushing him away or saying anything sarcastic and mocking.

Storm was not relaxed at all. Nevertheless,Heeseung did not force him to relax around him. For someone like Storm needs time. Time to trust. Time to learn. Learn what? Heeseung did not know. But Storm's life was like a miss placed puzzle. Someone needs to fix it.

Slowly,Heeseung backed away and sat on his own driving seat and put on his seat belt.

The drive to the mall was silent. It wasn't uncomfortable.

After parking his car in a parking lot,they got off and entered the mall. And he could literally feel Storm getting restless seeing the crowd.

Heeseung grabbed his wrist making him turn to his face. "You might get lost. Just follow me. And don't mind people"

Storm frowned,"People are staring at me. How rude and impolite. I need to beat some senses to them"

"No beating or killing. People here are born shameless and impolite sometimes. Also,who told you to be this handsome",Heeseung whispered the last part to himself before dragging Storm with him.

When the escalor came to view,Storm muttered,"Magic?"

Heeseung smiled feeling like a father trying to teach his kid,"No. It's just technology. Mind your steps or you'll fall"

Storm stepped on the steps without an ease after watching few people going in the escalator. He was a born genius.

Heeseung still had Storm's wrist in his grasp and he could feel how stiff he is. Still not relaxed. So,Heeseung used his thumb to draw circles on Storm's wrist.

"What are you doing?"

Heeseung did not look at him,"Trying to relax you?"

"It's pointless"

"I know. But it's still soothing to your nerves"

Heeseung looked at Storm when he snatched his wrist away.

"I don't need your help"

Heeseung sighed,"Still,if you get lost in the crowd —"

"I'm not a kid"

Heeseung could only sigh. He had never been responsible for a kid but how come he feels like babysitting an arrogant stubborn boss baby?  He had always been the carefree boy but now? Is this how it feels to be a parent?

Heeseung leaded Storm to a shop and walked towards a lady in a uniform. "Please bring me all the men's collection from every brand here"

"Your size sir?"

"Oh not for me,but for him",Heeseung pointed at Storm who was already looking at them.

The lady slightly gasped seeing the handsome man infront of her. Heeseung internally rolled his eyes,yeah yeah he is handsome I know. Just hurry up lady.

The girl smiled,"Sir,is there a specific type or style you're looking for?",she asked Storm.

Heeseung blocked her view from Storm and spoke,"Casual to business,streetwear,vintage,pyjamas,everything "

The girl had her mouth hanged open.

"Oh,shoes,yeah,show us shoes too. Boots,shoes,sandals...yeah everything"

Heeseung had a black card in between his fingers as he spoke,"We need to check everything"

The lady somehow seemed to realise something as she covered her mouth with a big smile. Then she bowed politely,"Don't worry sir,we will provide the best for your boyfriend"

"Yes do your —wait what",Heeseung was flabbergasted.

The girl bowed and ran away to get help with others.

"What does 'boyfriend' mean? Is that the term for a guy friend?",Storm asked suddenly startling Heeseung from his daze.

"What? Oh,y–yeah! Yes. It means friend. A normal guy friend"

Storm nodded as he walked towards a couch before sitting down.

Heeseung sighed,"Why does everyone think he is my boyfriend? He is a damn jerk"
