The Demon’s Bride Chapter 366
Advertisement
Elise and Ian decide to retire back to the castle after finding out things and salvaging the memories that had been tampered by the Angels who had acted upon their own wish, disregarding Elise's feeling.
Elise took a step away to look at the coffin, taking her time to pray for the woman who was buried there. She hoped that after all the suffering the lady has suffered, she would be in a peaceful place where only happiness would surround her.
"A heart like an Angel, that's what Elise has in her which is very rare amongst people," said Heaven, and Ian whose bright red eyes fixated on Elise shifted to look at the Angel, "I find it rare for Demon to take a gentle bride or one who has Angel's blood on her. Will you not change your opinion?"
"Until death do us apart," Ian smiled cheekily when meeting Heaven's eyes that was no longer inside his socket as he had pluck his eyes years ago as price to leave Heaven. "It's words used for humans when they marry. But for me, I will not stop until death but what comes after."
Heaven chuckled at his words, his smile spreading calmly. If one was to use words to describe the Angel it would be as calm as a still sky clear water. The man appeared would be unperturbed even if one was to stab him with a spear. Only Ian and few other angels knew the extent of Heaven's power that contrast his serene countenance, but the Angel had took his choice by staying beside his wife's decayed body.
"You don't believe me?" Ian questioned the man, having the Angel to shake his head.
"I believe you, the power in you they are one of a kind, something not even other High Demons dare to dream of," Heaven took a pause between his words which Ian didn't miss as he always study the opponent of who he was speaking with. "I advise you to look back on your lineage, Ian."
Ian curiously shifted his body from leaning on the bark of the tree by a push of his elbow, "My lineage? Diablo's lineage, Caleb's, which are you talking of?"

"Not those two," Heaven brought his index finger and lightly tapped him by his upper chest, "Yours," was all the Angel had to say. Ian wasn't slow enough to understand what Heaven meant by his lineage started from his mother and father, the ones who he had seen died and he killed nine hundred years ago.
Elise came back after making a small prayer, "Thank you for your help, Mr. Heaven for what you have done in the past with my mother and me," said Elise and she bowed to show her respect. This man had helped her by giving her the truth which others had been trying hard to hide for some reason she didn't know.
"You can call me by my name Heaven, and I only did what was taught to me. I have to tell you Elise, Angels are not prone to make no sins. Most of us have sins and even Angels do which why we have fallen angels and the one who was thrown from Heaven due to their heart's darkest nature the corrupted angels. At first they were like us, a normal Angel but they were too greedy, wanting to be an Archangel no matter what it takes, which why now they are punished by being sent to mortal's world. With times they grew in number as most of them make home and family here," explained Heaven.
So that was how it is. Corrupted angels were angels who were punished for their endless greed of wanting to be the strongest. And here Elise had thought in the past Angels are being who was the most sinless, but she appeared to be wrong. Not even Angels are able to relinquish themselves from sins.
"You shouldn't believe in Angels too," Heaven continued, "It must be hard for you to do that. However, I believe Ian would know more of how to doubt someone, he is best at that."
"Sure I am," Ian smiled, chuckling faintly, he then tipped his head, "Thank you." Elise wasn't surprised to hear Ian thanking the Angel. It was rare to head Ian thanking others but that was because there was no one who had done things worth for him to be thankful of.

Heaven replied with a nod before Elise stepped out from the fog, Heaven stopped her to say, "Thank you for praying to my wife, she would be happy."
"I hope she is at her peaceful rest," Elise replied the Angel. Exchanging another greeting of smile, she made her way out of the fog filled forest. Taking the last step out of the mists, her eyes then turn back to see white thick fog that had begun to fill the gap created after they both left the part of the place, the mist molded itself to form a thick wall.
Watching it, Elise then took the opportunity to ask, "Why do Heaven wait in mortal's world? His wife must have been a lovely person and her soul could enter Heaven," unless the woman had killed a person before.
"The problem is, she was not the innocent Heaven are allowed to take in," Ian smiled, offering his large hand for Elise to take. "Years ago she was a woman who stole from others and killed for her survival. She had been a turned woman since then after meeting Heaven, and it might have been something she cannot avoided but it was still a sin. Like how Angels are not able to go to hell, Demons likewise. One need not only the lineage of Angel but also permission to enter Heaven," Ian explained.
All this time, Elise thought Ian have gone to Heaven before only now knowing who Heaven was. "It's a shame," Elise said, and Ian smiled.
"Let's go home before it's darker, it will take us time to read you a book before you sleep," and without further ado, he took Elise by her knees and her back, carrying her as he fly back to White Mansion.
Heaven who was still in the forest, ventured toward his wife's coffin. He reached out and uses the softest fingertips to touch the surface of the coffin lid only to later narrow his eyes.
"I didn't invite you here," Heaven said and Beelzebub come in view. His eyes were not red but had transformed to a bright and transparent golden color, a color which once Heaven had before losing his eyes.
"That's saddening. Your words make me feel awkward," said Lucifer who had possessed Beelzebub's body, "But that's fine, I have invited myself for you."
"What do you want?" Heaven questioned, going straight to the point as he knew with a glance who this person was, "Lucifer. You have taken yet another body for yourself."
"You are wrong, I didn't take this body by force. The person had done it willingly by signing a contract with me," Lucifer brought his hand toward the thick golden curls of his head, "It feels strange loosing all length of my hair at once, having it short like this isn't my cup of tea."
"You are not supposed to be here, the Heaven's punishment-"
"It's near due," Lucifer interrupted before Heaven could speak more, "Say brother, what do you think I will do first once the curse chain that shackle my body for almost a thousand year in hell break? Who do you think would be first to suffer from my wrath and the first person I will victimize?" Lucifer dragged his gaze upward, his smile shortening on one side and widening on the other, "How fun it is to see the future where I gain my body. Who should I kill first?"
