Chapter 562: Path To Resurrection-III
The demons took a better seat to lessen the tension in the room. Lucifer's eyes were dark and his anger couldn't disappear from his eyes. He was t with Ian's ashes and was at lost of words, seemingly stumbling down the hole of shock and couldn't climb out of it. Beelzebub remained quiet as much as Maroon and the others.
"And this is?" Elise was the one to ask when seeing Lilith. When their eyes t, all of a sudden a chill slid under Lilith's skin. There was sothing about Elise's gaze that set a striking difference compared to her usual gaze. It was colder and ruthless.
"She is my wife," Maroon was the one who spoke with politeness as he could feel the sa pressure on Elise that reminded him of his first ti seeing Ian. It was a pressure that could drive a person into the corner. "Lilith Salyn."
Elise didn't imdiately talk. She montarily took a silent look and stared at Lilith. "You were brought back to life by the dark sorcerer lord didn't you?"
Lilith had planned to answer it truthfully. She wasn't choosing on the evil side on purpose but default and if she could stay by Maroon by being honest, she thought coming transparent would be he best approach to regain trust but seeing Elise's blue eyes that narrows, she could feel the deadly threats that warned her of what would occur if she answered with a bit of lies.
"Yes, he was the one who brought back," answered Lilith.
"Did you see anyone's faces there that you could rember?" Elise then questioned. What she needed the most now was the identity of the dark sorcerer before coming to find out who the angel was.
"I rembered Thomas and Caleb. They are one of the only fews whom I had the chance to see. It hadn't been two weeks since I ca back alive," answered Lilith.
"Caleb?" Leviathan questioned, "Is that the na of the second generation Diablo? He died didn't he?"
"He ca back alive in my foster brother's body," answered Elise to her father. "We t not too long ago in Hell." She then clenched her hands when she count how many enemies they had to face now but the reason for her to clench her hand wasn't fear it was anger because deep down Elise knew that even killing those who are her enemies won't put the raging wrath inside her heart to calm down.
"Do you rember where you were brought back to life?" Elise questioned to Lilith again and she nodded in response. Maroon who could read Elise's expression before now could feel how in less count of hours he had lost the ability while looking at Elise. One thing he can noted was only anger that didn't seem like it would calm down anyti soon. "It is better to co to that place and check it as soon as possible. They would have changed their place by now but seeing the place is a good idea. One last question Lilith—" Lilith's red eyes t with Elise's blue ones although Elise's eye color had always been calm against the red ones now had defeated other's eyes by its fury. "—Did you killed anyone in this mansion?"
"My lady she—" Maroon's lips were closed as a shadow who had regained the form of a human shouted by intense black fog covered his mouth with its long claw-like hands.
"I need the truth," Elise said while looking at Lilith. "I have stopped trusting in people. And I won't. Now I will only trust myself and what my shadow can show because all liars in the end cannot hide themselves from what they have done. Answer , Mrs. Lilith Salyn."
The ball on Lilith's neck moved as she gulped down her saliva, "I did not. Mila ordered to kill Maroon."
Elise's expression twisted worse when hearing Mila's na but she casted her ears aside, "Now you two can leave."
"The room?" Maroon questioned as his mouth was released because he could sense that what Elise ant wasn't simply leaving the very room they were present in.
"Everything. Awayfrom here," Elise corrected him. "This Castle and the life here. You have gotten what you wanted, both of you and now is your ti to face your own lives outside from this castle. Forgetting about demons and angels will earn you two a peaceful life until the rest of your life."
Maroon was taken aback, "I would like to stay here, Lady Elise."
Elise only looked at them she was about to speak when Esther said, "Maybe it would be better if they stay here for a while until everything dies down and we can talk about this again."
Elise whose expression was bleak let out a very faint sigh and nodded. "You two should leave for now." Maroon wanted to help but he knew he doesn't have a place to have a say on this. Therefore he nodded and left with Lilith.
"What was your plan, Lucifer?" Elise questioned him once. "I called your na, I tried and I did but you didn't co." It was during the mont that Elise ran through the corridor searching for Ian that she rembered she should called for Lucifer's na but the man didn't co.
"You called my na?" Lucifer gritted his teeth again. His veins popped on his forehead out of anger. "It must have been interfered by whatever magic that is casted inside the mansion. I can feel they had put on many magics here to weaken a demon's power both yours and Ian's."
So it wasn't that Mila was only getting stronger but they were also getting weaker with the casted magic that had been used here.
"Instead, Levi you said you know how to bring back Ian. I have never heard of a decisive thod to bring back the dead," Lucifer spoke with narrowed eyes.
Elise also had so doubt inside her, "You weren't lying to , aren't you?"
Leviathan could see the plead on Elise as the girl's wish to bring back her husband was so fragile. It was as if she couldn't handle one more person to lie to her and Leviathan didn't want to sadden her daughter anymore than she already was. "There's a way. You might ask why I didn't try it when your mother died but there are certain things in this thod that only a few selective people could fulfill. And I trust your husband could."
Elise promptly nodded. One kindle of hope was all she needed, "What should I do first?"
Leviathan heaved his breaths as if it was the most difficult thing to do. "We have to first et your grandfather and have a talk to him. Seeing that he is the most crucial person in this ritual."
