Let's begin ! 😆
**In the Kim Residence, there was a man, kneeling infront of a Lord.**
**A rather young and handsome lord,, Kim Taehyung.**
Servant
I have gathered information about the artist behind those paintings, my lord.
Servant
He is called Baek Seokjin.
Servant
He was discovered by the Head Kisaeng* as an infant and raised as her son at the house of Kisaeng.
Note : Kisaeng belongs to the lowest class in society.
Servant
We know not of his origins... But he has shown a talent for drawing and painting since a young age.
Servant
However, it is said that he no longer paints for reasons unknown.
**Hearing the last part, the Lord raised an eyebrow.**
Kim Taehyung
He no longer paints ?
**The servant sweats, still kneeling infront of the Lord.**
Kim Taehyung
Well, that's nothing to concern myself with...
Kim Taehyung
Well then, what has this fellow been doing these days ?
**The servant sat up, and started to respond.**
Servant
Well, sir... I hear he is...
Servant
...Just living as a drunk.
**There sat a young, delicate boy,, his head leaning against the table as he was unconscious due to being under the alcohol. A small amount of drool leaked from his slightly-parted mouth.**
**Suddenly,, he heard a voice,, was someone talking to him ?**
**He slowly gained consciousness, his eyes opening, drool still leaking from his mouth.**
Kim Taehyung
Wake up, I tell you.
**His eyes opened fully, and his eyes widened when he saw a well-dressed, wealthy looking man infront of him.**
**He quickly sat down properly, looking up at the man.**
Kim Taehyung
Finally, you've come to.
**Seokjin wiped the drool from his chin, and asked.**
Baek Seokjin
Pardon me,, sir, but who are you ?
**The man moved aside, revealing his servant. Old, bearded and fit.**
Servant
This Young Master is the eldest eldest son of the Kim Family.
Servant
Master Kim Taehyung.
Baek Seokjin
I see... **Kim Taehyung ? I've heard that name somewhere...**
Kim Taehyung
Are you the fellow they call Baek Seokjin ?
**Hearing that, Master Kim Taehyung didn't waste any time to grab his wrist tightly.**
**Sweat dropped from Seokjin's forehead, he was confused and nervous.**
Kim Taehyung
So, these are the talented hands.
**Taehyung said with a big grin, his eyes wide open. He exclaimed,**
Kim Taehyung
I very much enjoy your paintings, my boy !!!
Kim Taehyung
Your paintings fill me with excitement that truly cannot be contained !!
**Master Kim Taehyung looked deeply into Seokjin's eyes.**
Kim Taehyung
It has gotten to the point where I cannot enjoy life without them !!
**Seokjin yanked his wrist away from Master Kim Taehyung's hold, remembering who he actually was.**
Baek Seokjin
**Kim Taehyung, firstborn of the Kim Family !!**
Baek Seokjin
**I remember now...!**
Baek Seokjin
**The infamous Tyrant...**
Baek Seokjin
**But I published those paintings under a pseudonym...**
**Sweat dropped from his forehead, as he got super concerned.**
Baek Seokjin
**How did he find out my real name, and know that i'd be here?!**
Baek Seokjin
**I don't have a good feeling about this...**
**Seokjin pushed the folded painting behind him.**
Baek Seokjin
I'm not sure what you are speaking of, sir.
Servant
WH-WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, YOU RASCAL ?!!!
**Master Kim Taehyung shushed him.**
Kim Taehyung
Shut your mouth.
Kim Taehyung
So these paintings...
**His eyes locked onto the badly-hidden folded painting behind Seokjin's back**
Kim Taehyung
...Are not your creation ?
**Seokjin shook his head, indicating a "No".**
**Master Kim Taehyung smirked at his answer.**
Kim Taehyung
You didn't paint it ?
**And with that, Master Kim Taehyung took out his knife with a quick swish, turning around to face the servant.**
**The servant knew Master Kim Taehyung was about to kill him...**
Servant
N-no !! No, my lord !!
Servant
It's this fellow here who is lying !!
Servant
I'm certain,, my lord !
Servant
Please have mercy on me...
**Seokjin watched, confused and scared.**
Servant
Please... have mercy on ME !!!!!!!
**And with a quick slash, the servant fell down to the ground with a thump, dead. Blood was leaking from his body.**
**Master Kim Taehyung turned around, to see Seokjin...**
**Seokjin was unconscious, probably fainted because of the amount of blood he had to see.**
Kim Taehyung
As I have no way of knowing who is telling the truth...
Kim Taehyung
...Bring the boy along for now.
**And his other servant replied,,**
**As a bucket of water was thrown on him with a loud splash, Seokjin quickly gained consciousness.**
Kim Taehyung
You're awake...
**Taehyung squatted down to look at him,, having a smirk on his face.**
**Master Kim Taehyung crossed his arms on his chest... As he turned to look at his other servants.**
Kim Taehyung
You may leave now.
**And they all left, closing the door with a bang.**
**Master Kim Taehyung stood up, looking down at Seokjin, who was dripping wet, and all tied up.**
**Seokjin looked up at Master Kim Taehyung, and spoke up...**
Baek Seokjin
What have I done to warrant such treatment ?
**Master Kim Taehyung crossed his arms over his chest.**
Kim Taehyung
Let me ask you again.
**He took out the paintings, throwing it down on the floor.**
Kim Taehyung
These paintings...
Baek Seokjin
..!!! **sweating**
Kim Taehyung
These are your creations, are they not ?
Baek Seokjin
It is as I answered you before, My Lord, at the tavern.
Baek Seokjin
I did not paint them !
**Master Kim Taehyung's expression changed, and he looked at Seokjin seriously. His gaze was so straight and fierce,, it was piercing through Seokjin's soul.**
**Master Kim Taehyung turned the opposite side of Seokjin, showing Seokjin his back.**
Kim Taehyung
You're quite the liar, aren't you ?
**He took out his knife again, with a swoosh, and pointed it at Seokjin. Seokjin was tied up to a pillar, so he couldn't even move.**
Kim Taehyung
I know those paintings are yours.
**Seokjin's eyes widened as Taehyung pointed the knife against him.**
**Master Kim Taehyung used the knife to toy with the strings of Seokjin's hanbok.**
Kim Taehyung
Not even a day has passed, have you already forgotten ?
Kim Taehyung
A man died from this sword...
**And he stopped toying with the knife, and placed it right under Seokjin's chin.**
Kim Taehyung
...Because you lied !
**Then suddenly, Taehyung heard some sobs.**
**Taehyung looked down, and saw Seokjin. His head was down, and he was sobbing, tears running down from his eyes to his cheeks.**
**Master Kim Taehyung then threw the knife away and squatted down, to meet Seokjin's gaze...**
Kim Taehyung
Why are you crying ?
Baek Seokjin
**hic** I don't understand... **hic** why you are... **hic** doing this to... **hic** me, sir !!!
**Master Kim Taehyung wiped the tears from Seokjin's eyes.**
Kim Taehyung
...I'm just as puzzled as you are.
Kim Taehyung
What have I done to you that gives cause for these tears ?
Baek Seokjin
This is the only thing I am **hic** capable **hic** of,, sir !!
Baek Seokjin
I-I only... **hic** painted those images... **hic** to survive-
**And he was cut off by Master Kim Taehyung.**
Kim Taehyung
And that is all I want.
**Taehyung's own hands went to Seokjin's tied ones. His grip was so tight, it left a mark in Seokjin's hands.**
Kim Taehyung
You said you painted such images "to survive," did you not ?
**Taehyung then untied the rope, letting Seokjin's hands go. He held his hands, engulfing Seokjin's hands with his.**
Kim Taehyung
You can eat and sleep under my roof, and create paintings for me.
Kim Taehyung
That is what I want from you.
Baek Seokjin
...What do you mean by creating paintings for you, My Lord ?

Author Moon ~
Hiii pookies 💓
Author Moon ~
Let's continue.
Kim Taehyung
Would you like to explain why the paper is empty ?
**Seokjin looked down, sweating.**
Baek Seokjin
I am sorry, My Lord...
Baek Seokjin
...But I no longer paint anymore...
**Master Kim Taehyung raised an eyebrow, and squatted down to come in Seokjin's gaze.**
Kim Taehyung
"No Longer?" For what reason ?
Baek Seokjin
That, I cannot tell you, My Lord.
**Master Kim Taehyung placed a hand on his nose, thinking...**
**His fingers went to Seokjin's eyes.**
Kim Taehyung
You have both eyes...
**Taehyung's hands went to Seokjin's...**
Kim Taehyung
...And all ten fingers.
**Master Kim Taehyung then took Seokjin's hand, and made it cup Taehyung's cheek.**
Kim Taehyung
So I simply cannot understand what you mean when you say you cannot paint anymore.
**Taehyung's scary, straight gaze went directly to Seokjin's eyes. His eyes were piercing into Seokjin's soul.**
Kim Taehyung
I could certainly... give you a real reason to be unable to.
**Seokjin got frightened, sweat dropping from his forehead.**
**Then, Master Kim Taehyung yanked Seokjin's hands out from his grip.**
Kim Taehyung
...We'll consider this round a rehearsal.
**Master Kim Taehyung stood up, now Seokjin was kneeling infront of him like a dog.**
Kim Taehyung
I'll let it go, just this once.
**Master Kim Taehyung turned around to leave, walking towards the door.**
**He turned around to look at Seokjin over his shoulder.**
Kim Taehyung
It's been a while since you last picked up a brush, hasn't it ?
Kim Taehyung
Well, I can give you all the time you need to prepare.
Kim Taehyung
But it would be wise for you...
**Taehyung then looked at Seokjin's trembling and sweating figure.**
Kim Taehyung
...To remember that I am not a patient man.
**Seokjin was still there, sitting helplessly in the room. He was lost in his thoughts, all alone.**
Baek Seokjin
I can't run away, either...
Baek Seokjin
**Bringing me here to create paintings for him...**
Baek Seokjin
**I don't know what he's thinking.**
Baek Seokjin
**Still, I thought he'd be more dignified.**
Baek Seokjin
**I should have known. All the nobles are noble only in appearance.**
Baek Seokjin
**It hasn't even been a year...**
Baek Seokjin
**...Since I vowed never to paint again...**
**Seokjin sighed, finally looking around his surroundings. As he observed, he saw a big, big paper, and painting supplies.**
Baek Seokjin
It seems he was quite determined when he brought me here...
**He walked over to the paper, his hands running along the smooth, and hard texture of the paper.**
Baek Seokjin
I heard they only use paper like this at the Royal Academy of painting.
Baek Seokjin
To prepare such expensive paper...
Baek Seokjin
...Just for some paintings...
**As he walked back, he suddenly stepped his foot on a paint brush.**
**He bended over, and took the paintbrush in his hands, observing it.**
Baek Seokjin
**...I don't know what he wants me to paint for him...**
**And with that, Seokjin unconsciously started to paint with the paint brush, using different strokes, just following what his heart tells him.**
**It's like it wasn't in his control, it felt like his hand was moving on it's own...**
**He didn't realise what he was doing, but when he did, he widened his eyes and stopped painting.**
**His eyes widened, he had made the kind of painting he vowed to never ever make again.**
**The paint brush flew from his hands, the ink went everywhere as he stepped back.**
**His hands went to his forehead, pressing against it tightly in stress.**
Baek Seokjin
I vowed never to make such paintings again...
**And like that, the night passed by, with Seokjin's inner demons messing with his mind...**
**After a long while, Master Kim Taehyung stepped in the room, and saw Seokjin, either unconscious or asleep on the floor. He had no idea.**
**Master Kim Taehyung pat his head, making sure he's asleep.**
**Then Master Kim Taehyung's eyes went to the scene infront of him, and he smirked.**
**He walked over to the paper, and looked at the painting.**
**His hands went to touch the painting.**
**He turned to look around at Seokjin, this time his smirk was big.**
