Chapter 364: Unbinding The Magic-II
Heaven sunk to a thought before nodding his head, "I will try, co forward, Elise."
It felt strange, it was her first ti to et the Angel nad Heaven but sowhere she didn't feel like a stranger with the man. Stepping forward, Elise then felt Heaven's hand over her head. He muttered sothing under his breaths and before Elise could feel it, she saw light materializing underneath his palm.
Elise was startled by the light but it didn't feel uncomfortable instead sowhere it felt so warm and relaxing. Ian from the side watched them way Heaven's frowned continued to furrow when suddenly his hand was repelled by so impact and was thrown back. Loosing his balance, Heaven also took so steps behind and felt his skin sizzled as a small thunder had struck his palm when he tried to unbind the magic that affected Elise's mind.
Startled Elise saw blood trickling down from Heaven's hand, "Oh no," whispered Elise, making her way forward when Ian took hold of her and nodded. Taking more steps, Ian healed Heaven's wound by a touch.
"What happened?" inquired Ian, an the Angle stared at his hand with an expression of a shock.
"It's not an Angel's magic. I do sense so angelic quality there but more of a Demon," Heaven revealed.
It was a Demon? asked Elise. So one who had sealed all the mories of her past wasn't an Angel but a Demon.
"You cannot unbind the magic?" Ian then questioned, the Angel replied by shaking his head.
"Unfortunately, I am not familiar with undoing magic of a Demon, a curse, I might try but it's not possible," answered Heaven, her then leaned forward, "How far do you rember of your past, Elise? Do you rember the ti when you live in Saltige and about your mother?"
"I don't rember a lot of things but I do rember living in Saltige and my mother," answered Elise, because this man knows more about her she hoped he would know more, "Can you tell how did we et?"
"I was on my way to visit your mother," answered Heaven, trying to understand the extent of Elise's mories loss.
"My mother, do you know her?" questioned Elise, seeing the man nod. Ian shifted his eyes and t Elise's blue ones, finding her eyes filled with so eagerness to know more.
"You really don't rember anything," only now was Heaven convinced that the mories that Elise lost was the major ones, "What do you rember from your mother?"
Elise clenched her hands together. Speaking about her mother, she traced that she only had that one mory of her fighting against Barner was when she finds her mother the most warst. "My father left my mother to pursue sothing for himself. She then succumb to her ntal illness and went mad until her death."
"What?" Heaven gasped, looking startled and rather greatly shocked by what she had said.
"Oh, get to straight to the damned point, Heaven," Ian rolled his eyes, unable to keep the delay of informations that Heaven kept throwing back and forward by being surprised at every words Elise said, his patience was running thin. "What did you find strange?"
"It's not only mory erasing magic that is put on her, she is also under the influence of mory alteration magic!" Heaven exclaid, his hand reached forward again over Elise's forehead, "There it is," he said when he sensed another layer of magic in Elise.
Elise was confused, all this ti her mory had been wronged? That would an her mother never went mad nor beat her or strangle her. The light over her forehead grew in distance and turn brighter than before. Slowly so of the mories that Elise had believed this entire ti corrode, breaking to pieces to reveal the truth that all this ti was covered and altered by magic.
Only after a while that Heaven pulled his hand. When the magic Heaven perford had ended, Elise felt her head dizzy and her body lost its balance, moving backward to collapse on Ian's lean chest. "Are you alright?" Ian questioned and Elise nodded.
"You will feel so discomfort," Heaven said, "How do you feel?"
"Better and lighter," Elise pointed out, with the help of Ian's strong arm, she gained her posture and stood on the ground.
Heaven continued, "I knew it strange when you said you didn't rember your mother. It will take so ti for the entire magic to be dispelled but you should have a clearer view of what is the truth and the tampered mories that this Angel placed on you."
"It was an Angel?" Ian questioned, his eyes narrowing, "Who was it?" He would find the damned Angel who had altered Elise's mories, causing her deep wounds in her heart and ripped their wings apart.
"I am not sure, but I feel so familiarity with this Angel's magic, it felt like my brother. It must be an Archangel," Heaven said. Archangels again, thought Ian they always appeared to be the most holy and sinless but in fact the most fishy out of all creatures in this world. They did say the whitest are the blackest. Ian then shifted his attention to Elise who he knew needed him the most now.
Reaching out his hand, Ian caught her better in his shoulders. Elise fell silence for a good three minutes. In the silence, she felt the new and correct mories surged to her mind. In the mories, she saw her mother smiling warmly. Her face which was covered by thick black fog last ti, gradually fading, showing the motherly expression of a woman who shared the sa hair color as her. It was the smile and expression that Elise had never seen before, but the loveliest expression she had ever seen from her mother.
'My sweet daughter, you are my treasure,' whispered her mother, Adelaide on the deepest part of Elise's mories which still linger in the back of her ears. The warmth of her mother's hug ca to her mind as if it had only been yesterday when her mother hugged her and brought her to her embrace. Tears rolled from the corner of her eyes which Elise didn't realized as she was still going through the mories in her mind. A storm of emotions washed over Elise, causing her to feel sad even though she didn't fell so sad in the beginning. But as more mories ca on her mind, her heart sunk to the sadness that begin to swollen in ti.
Ian drew his brows when he saw her tears. Seeing Elise tears always affected his heart to squeeze painfully. Even though Ian had been stabbed in his heart multiple tis, when his eyes caught her sloped brows and her dribbling tears, the pain in his heart was incomparable to all the pain he had suffered for the past six hundred years. Ian pulled out the kerchief that Elise had made for him and in ti caught her tears.
Feeling Ian's warmth, Elise closed her eyes to blink away the tears and released them, "Ian, my mother," she sobbed in whispers, "She didn't go mad. She was sane. This entire ti," she said on broken sentences. "I was wrong," Elise whispered. She was wrong to think that her mother had hated her that she wasn't needed in this world. Her mother had loved her deeply. So much that she rembered how her mother would always hug her in tis she needed. The mory and nightmare she always had where her mother strangle her was no where in her mory. It had never happened and soone was the one to make believed it.
"I know," Ian whispered, giving her the comfort by hugging her. He pressed his lips on her forehead, coaxing her body that shakes as Elise teared up from the sudden rush of overwhelming emotions of warmth and sadness as the true mory of her past ca abruptly. "You can cry, don't hold it back. It would be okay," Ian continued to coo her, letting Elise to recollect the mories that had been hidden by others for years of her life.
While Ian gave Elise the comfort she needed and pacify her mind, his eyes narrowed in what he had found. There was a Demon who had erased Elise's mories and an Angel who had altered her mories, making it horrible than the truth. Ian knew Elise was unique. Sothing about her past was very mysterious but he had not expect that her past was surrounded by a lot more mysteries than he thought.
The Archangels, thought Ian, they must be trying to hide sothing about Elise by ddling with her. While patting Elise's back, Ian suddenly snapped his gaze to the tree near them, catching sight of a white feather that was very similar to the one he had seen for a few tis.
After last ti in the forest where he t Gabriel, he wondered if Heaven had begun to make their move.
