Elise saw the woman, who appeared around her page thirties. Seeing her, a deep frown carved on her forehead. A large question bothered Elise. Lady Lucy's death was more than nine hundred years ago then how come the woman was still alive?

"Is she a demon?" Elise asked to Lucifer, and the man shook his head.

"She is a resident in Hell but not as the Demon and rather the sinners. As the highest resident there, this is one of the many things I could do. If you two come to Hell, I can show you around the place," he offered but Elise shook her head.

Ian stood from beside her, walking toward the woman who was called Arrah, and she saw how his eyes were set ablaze by anger. Nine hundred years was what it took for Ian to forget all the anger he buried inside his heart. The reason why he had buried the anger instead of unleashing it was because all his mother's enemies and the people who caused them to suffer had disappeared.

When Ian took only a step, however, a sharp scream echoed from the woman who was on the ground, Ian narrowed his eyes, squinting it as the scream echoed too loud, "Did you do something to her?" Ian directed his question to Lucifer.

"A little," smiled Lucifer meaningfully and only from the way he smiled, Ian knew it was not a little.

Ian sighed, turning away and he took back the seat beside Elise. Lucifer showed a startled look while Elise also found this action of him questionable.

"You are not going to kill her? Or torture?" Lucifer was the one voicing out the oddity.

"It's boring," Ian answered, barely looking at Arrah who begin to mutter by herself a pleading and begging for them to spare her. "She already cross the line of an insane woman. I need her to be sane to remember what she did to my mother and felt it by her own skin how fire taste when it burn her skin."

"I can do that if you wish," Lucifer offered, however Malphas from the side waved his hand as if to remind Lucifer of something. Catching the sign, Lucifer then snapped his finger, "Ah, but I am running a little late."

"Do you have a prior engagement going on?" Elise questioned, curious of what Lucifer was running late for.

"Yes. I am about to hunt the fucker who had caused me this much trouble," Lucifer was unfiltered when it comes to his words despite his elegant nature.

The Angel who had managed to trick, Lucifer, thought Elise. "Do you know who is the Angel who searched for me and my mother?"

"Elise's memory was a little tampered by that fucker," Ian stated from beside, "And we are searching for that person."

"Tampered memories?" Lucifer hummed in response while looking at Elise, "Hand me your hand," and as Ian didn't stop her, Elise reach out her hand, placing it across her table. Lucifer pressed two fingers on her hand, narrowing his eyes, "Your memories have been locked away too. Angels you know, they are like pretty white stones in the river, but amongst the white stone, you have to flipped each of them to know whether they are black underneath. They are more of a hypocrite than any other being in all three realms. That was why I left the place."

"What can you find?" Ian asked, though he wasn't friendly, it doesn't sound curt either which cause Elise to feel better at peace.

"While I cannot guess who amongst the Angels is, I can tell which Demon who locked your memories," Lucifer replied as he pulled his hand away from her wrist. Looking at her eyes, the man said, "It's your father."

Father?

Leviathan, thought Elise.

Lucifer said, "I can help you regain your memory back though doing that would force you to sleep for days. Locking a memory is difficult but unlocking it is as difficult as the former. Sometimes, releasing an erased memories would cause one to recall back all the memories they have and because it will happen all at once, it can cause strain to the person. If they don't sleep, the surge of memories can lead them to death."

Knowing what running in Elise's mind, Ian held her hand like she did when he first saw Lucifer outside the gate, "What would you do?"

Elise balled her thoughts, pulling one decisive thought, "Can I think over for a few days?"

"Certainly, no one is forcing you," Lucifer answered and he stood up from his chair, "Thank you for the tea. If you two find any trouble you can call my name I won't be late this time," he stressed the last few words he uttered.

Elise also stood up, and coming toward Lucifer she asked in a voice enough for only the two of them to hear, "When you came back again, can you explain Ian why you had tricked him to stab his heart and rip his wings? From what I can see, a talk is what needed for you two to understand each other's circumstances for the better."

"I reckon you take only the positive qualities of your mother, Elise," smiled Lucifer, and he bent his neck slightly to let his hair fell down, "I will keep what you suggest in mind. We both are indeed terrible with words." Taking a step back then he spoke with a louder voice, "I will leave this woman with you," and with a snap of his finger, Arrah's scream turn silent and she fell on the ground, unconscious, "When she wake up, she should be on a better situation. I have done what I wanted what you want is all on your hand now," and the words were directed to Ian.

Elise then looked at Ian; Compared to Ian's first behavior when Lucifer came to the house, he had became milder. Anger occasionally run across his eyes but it had disappeared when he talked with Lucifer. The wounds on his cheeks and Lucifer's stomach had also disappeared seamlessly as though they have never fought before.

Like how they appeared, both Malphas and Lucifer left and came in seconds. Before he left, Lucifer said, "I will invite myself to your wedding, I hope you won't mind it?"

Elise again looked at Ian, who was asked by Lucifer, he didn't reply with a word but a deep hum of agreement.

"I thought you would disagree. You are not using this chance to find a way to kill me, would you?" Lucifer asked, contradicting to his suggestive question, his tone was friendly and Elise could also take out the tinge of joy in the man's voice, who was happy that his nephew had accepted him even though they were in a situation of indifference.

"I am still angry to you but not enough to color my wedding day with Elise with blood. She deserve a happy wedding unsullied by blood. The least event I want it to happen is you barging in and killing people for not being allowed to enter the castle," Ian answered and Lucifer curled his lips, thinking that it was something that he would indeed do.

"I will see you two again," Lucifer said and at once he disappeared from the thin air. Malphas on the other hand, had turned to a crow but was confused as he saw how his master had disappeared by transporting through magic. The servant then took back his human figure and offered Ian and Elise a polite smile before zapping away.

Left alone again, Elise then turned to look at Ian who ordered Maroon to drag away Arrah from the place, "Are you alright?" She asked, wanting to see not his wound but his emotional reaction at the moment.
