Elise recalled everything that happened in the forest and the fight that she had with the dark sorcerer before her consciousness left her body. "Barner told me of how my father looked like. He said that my father named himself Levi."

"A Demon named Levi," whispered Ian, his eyes narrowing at the lone information she had uttered,

Elise took in his action and asked, "Do you know who it is?"

"If he is using an alias I don't, but I think there was a Demon's name similar to that. It's somewhere in my memory but I don't bother remembering Demon's name as I went to Hell only for two times," Ian revealed, having Elise to see him with her eyes enlarged at what he said.

"You have only been Hell for two times?" She repeated in question, seeing him hum in confirmation. 

Ian poured the water to the crystal glass that were on the side of her bed, nodding as he said, "I was there briefly to receive the punishment that Lucifer ruled out. Since then I've come another time to attend a banquet to satisfy my curiosity. But don't you think this Levi is Lucifer?" He then questioned.

Elise shook her head, now that they were on the topic, she said, "I think Lucifer is not my father."

"How so?" Ian leaned forward, seeing her lips parted when they were interrupted by a knock on the door. Elise saw Ian turned his head to the door, a light frown between his forehead, "It's Beelzebub," he announced.

Elise became weary at the Demon who had arrived in front of her room. She had seen Lucifer in her dream, the man didn't harm her but he did harm the Angels that were searching for her and she cannot be too sure of Lucifer's true intention, of whether the man had protected her or instead had killed the Angels so he could covet the Demon's Bride which was her.

Ian stood up and seeing this, Elise stopped him by holding the cuff of his sleeve, "If Mr. Beel comes in and hear we talked, wouldn't Lucifer be able to overhear our conversation if he has a link?" Isn't that the reason why they didn't converse with Mr. Beel in the first place for the past few days? wondered Elise and her eyes saw the slow smile that strummed Ian's lips.

"Haven't you know me yet, my love? I hate it when someone try to control me, let's control them instead, and have Lucifer hear our talk," Ian convinced her. Elise trust to Ian had gone beyond a trust between two normal people. Deep in her, it had came without a saying that she would trust Ian's choice and thinking about it, Elise agreed about having Beelzebub participate in their discussion as the Demon was born in Hell unlike Ian, allowing him to access more informations of Hell than them.

"Come in," Ian said for the door to creak open, the sky outside had turned deep to inky black, and Beelzebub had come with a lantern himself, when he entered his red eyes first falling to Elise who was on the bed than Ian and it lingered there as if he was searching for something which Elise noticed.

"I see that you are fine, lass," said Beelzebub with a hum as Elise sat on the bed with her back leaned on the headrest. "I find it strange how you suddenly lose consciousness and thought that you were stabbed but with how your complexion had turned better, it seemed I were wrong."

"It was a light exhaustion," Elise said, deciding to tell the Demon that had Beelzebub raised his brows as suddenly the Hybrid girl had decided to talk to him when all of them know that even though to outsider's view there were only three people inside the room, in fact there was a fourth person who had watched everything from Beelzebub.

Beel's eyes then fell at Ian, stopping his gaze somewhere for a while before saying, "I also thought you got stabbed with how much blood that splattered on you now."

"What can I say, I'm invincible. Most blood on me came from my victims," Ian responded with confident and he resume the case which he and Elise had been talking about, "We were just talking about Elise's father."

Smile curled on the corner of Beelzebub's lips and Ian didn't miss the second it appeared before the Demon pressed his lips and pulled a surprised expression, "Oh? Father? You've found him?"

Ian could see the act Beelzebub trying to play as the blonde-haired Demon didn't hide his inability to act his surprise better. It makes Ian wonder what actually happened underneath everything that caused Beelzebub to be bound by Licifer's contract that he needed to obliged by the Duke Of Hell's demands. "He is a Demon, calling himself Levi in the human world, maybe you know who it is?" Ian questioned and almost immediately Beelzebub shook his head.

"Never heard of such a short name. Hell is filled with Demons Ian," Beelzebub said almost too quickly that make it more suspicious as he didn't seem like he wanted to bother himself by guessing who it might be.

Elise watched the way Beelzebub leaned on the corner of the room instead of coming closer as if he had chosen the place so he could see the two of them fully.

"Yet mortal's world has always been filled with chaos," said Ian under his breath, "We had been making some faint guesses and the witness which had unfortunately been killed claimed that Elise's father was the son of Satan, does that ring a bell?"

"Hell is filled with gossips, I might have heard some but I doubt you will trust the words as they are spoken too loosely that no one can't ever proof the rumor's authenticity. Perhaps it's better to ask someone who is more knowledgeable in this," Beelzebub said before his head tilted, "But that would mean you two need to go in Hell. Thinking about it, that sounds like a perfect Honeymoon plan."

Beelzebub raised his eyebrows to Elise but she shook her head, not even wanting to put the plan to her thought as it was absurd for her to spend her time after marriage in a place that's known for having fire that could never be extinguish.
