The Demon's Bride

Chapter 635: No More Goodbyes-I



Chapter 635: No More Goodbyes-I

As the Black Sea's shore had never been the perfect place for one to stand idle around, Elise, Ian, and Leviathan went back to the castle using the portal Levi had created. When they appeared inside the castle, Elise looked around to see how the demons seemed to be in a panic.

"What happened?" Elise walked toward the window, seeing down below outside of the castle there had been many demons in different appearance and shapes seeming to be standing around the castle.

"Hm," Ian who stood beside her raised his chin lightly and pulled one side of his lips. "That's a very warm welcome."

"Welcome?" Elise asked, her eyes staring at him for an answer.

"Those demons sensed his presence," Leviathan chose to answer instead, "Your husband's presence. Being a mix of an angel and demons, you are also one unique individual. Do you have to make your presence known by everyone across Heaven and Hell?"

Ian showed his father in law a smile, "That wasn't a choice for me. Regaining my wings seemed to have enhanced my power and warn the people all around us of my homecoming. Though I would rather my wife's welcome than theirs."

Leviathan had his forehead tensed and he then looked at his daughter who seemed happy, causing him to inadvertently smile.

"What's wrong with Ian's presence?" Elise questioned. She asked in her mind why the people of hell became chaotic only because of Ian's presence?

"You can say his presence is unique or maybe most will describe as chilling. Did you acquire those wings once you turned into a demon?" Leviathan questioned while looking at Ian's back where his wings was resting.

"The one and only."

"Must be Lucifer's blood in you," remarked Leviathan who continued to walk, leading the two with his steps.

"Where's grandfather?" Elise could tell Satan would have waited for her on the shore but he had left.

"Earlier we met Caleb," Leviathan spoke without stopping his tracks. "Right on the shore. In actuality, he had been following us."

Caleb! Elise almost forgot how the creature on the boat mentioned Caleb who had appeared with William's body. Ian's eyes narrowed as well, knowing that Caleb had been resurrected again. "Why one can't let the dead man rest," Ian remarked with a click of his tongue.

"Your grandfather and I had a little fight with him when it seemed a magic spell on Caleb's hand reminded Satan of his old friend."

"Old friend?" Elise questioned what wasn't clear to him.

"Yes, his old friend and your grandmother's old friend, the first one to be named as the angel of wrath, the one who betrayed your mother out of jealousy. That one," Leviathan who answered this had a severe frown on his forehead.

"The first angel to be named angel of wrath. Is he possibly who I think he is?" Ian asked Leviathan and the latter looked back at his intelligent eyes.

"What do you mean?" Elise felt that she was the only person who didn't caught clear of their conversation.

Ian answered her, "The dark sorcerer he is also the first angel of wrath. He is, isn't he?" and he directed his second question to Leviathan who nodded his head. "I had guessed so. For a human, regardless if he was a dark sorcerer, he shouldn't be too omniscient about Hell or Heaven's situation yet he somehow appears to know everything about Heaven and Hell, even the deepest secrets Heaven had been trying to hide."

Hearing this, Elise's blue eyes widened and she heard again her father's words. "Elise you had seen the dark sorcerer's past. Who was the name he claimed to be?"

"Ernest," she replied, gasping as she tried to wrap her mind around the reveal.

Considering that Mr. and Mrs. Lone had performed the resurrection ritual, it was said that they have failed but what if they didn't? What if they had actually succeeded the ritual but hadn't brought back their younger son and instead the first angel of wrath himself?

Through Dalton's memories, she saw signs that Ernest had suffered side effect from the ritual and Elise had only seen Ernest after the failed attempt that Mrs. and Mr. Lone had conduct. Perhaps Ernest's real soul had been occupied by the angel of wrath and his body had long been controlled by the angel, causing him to do the wretched thing he had done.

"And there is something important I have to tell you, Elise. The boy that Caleb's soul is currently residing in, it is your brother and you might have known that based on your expression. But during the fight we might have seen a glimpse of William's soul."

Elise's feet had stopped moving, looking at her father where her expression turned into a stone as if time stopped for her.

"There's a possibility that William's soul still remain inside his body," Leviathan continued his explanation.

As Elise felt her heart beating in uneven beats, Ian took hold of her hand, squeezing her, "It's alright," he whispered to calm her down. "There's also a business where I have to clear my name for the guilt that I didn't do," while Elise heard carefully to his words, Leviathan tilted his face slightly.

"You're also tricked like your uncle."

"More or less so. The village that I destroyed and was punished for destroying them, I found out it had been on the state it was before I have arrived but at the time I was consumed with anger that I cannot tell clear if it was my doing and whether it wasn't. But through the help of the kind death angels, I have found out someone else had came there."

"We need more evidence to proof your innocent but I can tell that isn't your goal. You wish to find the one responsible for the killing don't you?" Leviathan had took a spot on guess where Ian nodded his head to.

"I also have something to tell you," Elise said to Ian when a demon had called up to Lucifer and he had excused himself. "About your mother, Lady Lucy. I went to read the memories that happened to you during the time by touching your wings and I found out whose name Lady Lucy had called at the time and the reason why she hadn't called for Lucifer's name. Her murderer was Camael. He had been the one who made sure Lady Lucy would never escape dying on the stake."

Elise who told him the truth then saw Ian's red eyes deepening and how quick his eyes had switched colors. Anger filled his eyes that Elise could understood.

"That angel will feel the death so painful no one would ever compare," Ian's voice growled as he punched the wall beside him to release his boiling wrath. "I swear it on my name."
