The Demon's Bride

Chapter 521: Trick Or Treat-III

With a hand on his hips, Leviathan stared at Hallow who was now held on hand by the shadows. They had vacate to an alley to not attract attention. Leviathan sighed as he pushed his hair to the back of his head.

"Now tell me where you have gone? Based on your reply, I will think and measure how to punish your misbehavior," while looking at Hallow, a little frown then form on his forehead, "Or should as I thought roast and eat you?"

"Hey!" Hallow snapped, standing on his feet when he had been suspended on air. Seeing Leviathan's brows twitched, the chick lowered his gaze, "sir," he added the word in a politer tone. "I was thrown by you, if you didn't forget? I don't even now why I am here either! Besides, you know we have much more pressing matters to talk about! Elly had been waiting and searching for you."

Leviathan knew how terrible of a father he was once he had let go of his daughter's hand and stayed in the prison. He knew deep down that it wasn't his mistake but he also was aware how inevitable it is for him to be blamed for Elise had to see her mother dying before her. He remembered her tears as he came to her.

"Is she not angry?" Leviathan asked. He had promised to stay away from Elise for he was related to Satan, his father. He didn't want her to be involved in the problem of Hell. Without associating with him, she would save herself a peaceful life, thought Leviathan. But the plan didn't go well as Elise ended up meeting his father, which Leviathan wasn't aware of. He took the role of a secret helper after promising to find the people responsible for his wife's death.

"What's wrong if she is angry?" Hallow questioned, "Elly isn't petty like others. If you apologize to her and speak properly of your reason, I believe she would forgive you. She forgives most people." As he spoke, Hallow's eyes moved to look behind Leviathan, his green eyes spotting Maxwell who stared at him from the far distance before looking back at Leviathan. "Anyway! We are late! Elly is in Satan's house. It would be dangerous for her if she stays there for long."

"Satan's?" Leviathan's eyes turned wide as he was in shock. Wordlessly, he immediately disappeared from his spot, leaving toward the mansion of Satan. Maxwell, or known as Vanesh when he was still a grim reaper pulled out the pocket watch he often brought with him.

Maxwell whispered, "We are running out of time, Hallow. I can only grant your wish this once."

Leviathan zapped to his father's house once he received Hallow's statement that Elise had came to visit Satan's house which was currently in the mortal's world. Once he arrived he walked along the corridor he remembered well because this was his mother's favorite house where he spend the first five years of his life inside the mansion.

His long legs stormed inside the houses searching for Elise and Hallow helped from his pocket, looking left and right but because of the weird structure of the house, it only turned him dizzy as even though they had walked through seven corridors, they were still amongst the walls of doors and windows.

When they almost reached to one passage that seemed to grow wider, Hallow turned as he heard the sound of a growl. "Oh fuck! That's the batshit crazy dog!"

Leviathan stopped as Wiggles who had growled seven times it shape before when he was chasing Hallow now had his head held so tall that the ceiling could barely hold his height. Seeing Leviathan, the dog growl.

"Sit!" Leviathan pointed his hand to the floor and Hallow from his pocket watched Wiggles immediately put his rear to the floor. Its black long tail wag all over the room, hitting the door and the walls enough to create dents.

"Silence," Leviathan instructed Wiggles to stay down and in response the large black dog cried and whined but afraid of Leviathan's glare, it quickly dragged itself and stopped from the small whining.

"Still obedient with this one, Wiggles? You should have bitten him and being this disobedient son back to my audience," came the rough voice from behind, accompanied by irritation and annoyance. "What are you doing here? I thought you don't want to come back home but it appears you have understood that not being able to go back home will be a terrible feeling for you."

Leviathan didn't have to turn back to look at his father and to know what kind of expression his father had. The veins on his forehead trembled similar in the way Satan was, "It seems age did you dirty old man. I won't ever miss this place. Where is my daughter?" When

Leviathan had asked,

"My granddaughter you mean?" Satan looked at his son with both his eyebrows raised, "I don't know."

"Bullshit!" Leviathan's eyes turned black, leaving only his irises turning bright red. "Where is she, my daughter!"

The room rambled with Leviathan's outburst of anger, shadows from behind him lurkers out, all in different forms of beast with red eyes that hissed and glared to Satan. But the King looked at his son and his soldiers with a look of bored.

"She is also my granddaughter and also the next heir to the throne."

Leviathan's eyes widened as it dawned to him what his father had done, "You forced her to the throne like you did to me, again?!"

"She has her rights and her responsibility," answered Satan simply, "As her father wasn't able to fulfill that responsibilities, it is only right that she as the only last line to my true blood should stay in Hell forever and take the crown."

"She won't agree to that," Leviathan said. He knew his daughter and he knew how clever she was. Being a Queen of Hell wasn't only a matter of power and throne, it circulated much more as she wouldn't be leading only a single piece of land but the entire realm where her entire life would never be at peace as she had to wage war to protect her kingdom. "You are forcing her to take the throne, stay in Hell forever! When will you realize that your descendants are not your pawn to be moved and played as you will?"

Satan didn't reply as he appeared to be in a thought, "Of course she didn't agree but no worries, she would be soon."

Leviathan's hand clenched tighter. He knew what kind of man his father was, after all, Satan was his father. The man would do anything for things to bend into his way, whether it was objects or people and Leviathan didn't care if it was other people. But he won't allow it if was his daughter that Satan was trying to control.

From the tips of his fingers Black shadows twirled over his fingertips. Leviathan's anger burst like an volcanic eruption. "Where. is. she. now!"

"In Hell," Satan answered with raised of eyebrows, "She will come back here soon enough. I am looking forward to her arrival again."

Leviathan hatefully glared at his father's wide grin but he quickly left his place toward Hell as he needed to be there for Elise before his father dared to pull any foolish trick on her that will inevitably force her to take the throne.

Once in the past, his father had done it to him by posing him as the killer for another demon and dragged him back from his newly made family. He won't allow his daughter to suffer again!

Satan stood still while watching how Leviathan disappeared from the spot. Wiggles whined, coming toward his master with a smaller form.

"It's cold?" Satan asked while looking at Wiggles, and he decisively said, "It won't be soon."
