"So? How do you wish to die?" Ozul asked with a calm voice as if he didn't care either way.
Luthien's head hung loosely as he stared at the blood-stained ground.
Even as a Rank-9 Mage, accepting death wasn't an easy matter. After all, no one wanted to die.
"..."
After a few moments, he seemed to have muttered something, but it was too low for Ozul to understand.
"Stop mumbling to yourself," he said, running out of patience.
Luthien slowly looked up with a despaired look on his face and said in a low voice, "I... will answer any question. So end it quickly and painlessly..."
What some people feared more than death was the pain before they finally left this world. Some might agree to death, but only someone sick in the head would ask for pain.
Also, since he was the Emperor of Silverbird Kingdom, he would very much prefer death that would let him keep his dignity.
