Elise looked surprise, the sweet child couldn't see grim reaper? Then how could she be able to see him? After she had heard from Ian of her being the sweet child, she had searched of the existence of people like her but she found nothing and Ian also did find nothing which now the two interest's were piqued by the grim reaper's words.

"Is there any note saying the sweet child could see ghosts?" asked Elise receiving a little look of not wanting to answer to her question as the human girl is still suspicious to his eyes. As it wasn't usual for grim reaper to see something so odd that it could bring him to edge there was the unpleasure to answer her question.

"I'm being generous for you two odd beings today." the grim reaper quirked a grin and pushed his shoulder upward as if to show his generosity where it only bring a chuckle to Ian White. "In the realm of the dead, we know most knowledge than you mortals who lived in the realm of the livings. The sweet child could see faeries and ghosts but they can not see us."

"But I can see you." Elise muttered under her breaths wondering how was she different than the previous sweet child.

The grim reaper stared at her confused expression to finally confirm that the human didn't reign her expression, whispering, "So you really don't know it too." then the grim shifted his eyes to Ian, he came to a new case that made him forgot his whole situation being captured by some unknown undead being. "What else do you need from me anyway? Let me go now!" he demanded.

"This is why I was worried whether I caught the wrong grim reaper talking to you is like talking to a wall. Is your head only made up of bones?" Ian said grinning.

"I have brains!" The grim reaper retorted knowing that well this wasn't that wasn't the point.

"If you have then now talk." Ian gave a polite smile that made the grim reaper's skin crawl. "Do you still remember my question? I can repeat it if you want to."

"No need!" The grim reaper glared at him, his eyes disobeying and ablaze. He then took good time to think before forming a smile over his face. "Alright I will answer your questions but with conditions."

"Conditions." Ian hummed, "But this isn't the place for you to haggle condition when you have no advantage do you? You are now weaker than me and I have enough grim reaper to replace you." This had the grim gulp but stubbornly he yelled,

"Then I will not talk!" The grim reaper flung his face away with his expression saying that he will not heed to Ian's words. He peeked between his close eyelids, muttering aloud, "But is you know there isn't any more grim reaper who is more knowledgeable than me."

"Why is that?" it was Elise who asked from the spot she stood at. She could tell that the words coming from the grim was firm with his confidence.

"Because I am the most intelligent Grim reaper of all! Most grims do nothing but taking would but it is different for me who is curious of the world outside. If you don't believe me you could take another grim and ask about me, just say who is Hallow and they will do you the honor to fill you with my achievements." he said boasting as he speak. He then tried to calculate Ian's expression but as he was grinning since the first time they had met, he can't read anything from his expression.

But even if the two did meet a grim reaper now, they would only broke in a fight which doesn't solve their problem either, Elise thought after seeing how displeased the grim reaper was when she could see him.

Ian folded his hands above his chest, "What is this about your conditions?"

"I need a protection!" Hallow said with a grim expression. "I was blamed for something I didn't do and now the death angels are searching to hunt me. If you can give a protection, I promise to be a help of you." A hint of helplessness could be pick when Elise heard Hallow speaking.

"What is Death Angel?" asked Elise, seeing how frightened Hallow was when he mentioned death angels. Despite their names the way Hallow say it make them sounded eerie.

"The creature before grim reaper's they are the one who ruled the realm of the dead. Although grim reapers could not be killed in mortal worlds unless he is killed by another grim reaper, the death angels could kill them as it is their authorities. But to be able to be hunt by death angels, what did you do, grim?"

"I have told you earlier, didn't I? I was blamed! Someone had framed me for what I didn't do and use me as a scapegoat." he aggressively replied feeling blamed and then sighed to pity himself.

"I was questioning what you was blamed for." Ian said.

"They said I was involved in a human's matter and fell in love with a human there when the time was near for the girl to die but I didn't take her soul to the realm of the dead. But it was bull**! How can the great I fall for a human?"

This had Ian narrowing his eyes, "Was there a rule in the realm of the dead for the grims?"

"Of course there is. Regardless the lack emotions and attachment, similar to humans grim reaper's have their own personality and thoughts they keep to themselves. When a grim reaper hold an attachment to human or love, they would start to change the human's fate, creating a wave to the realm of the dead and imbalance. That was why Grim reaper's had to have less contact with humans."

The way Hallow spoke Elise felt sympathy to the grim reaper. He may had a bad mouth but the grim reaper's was accuse for what he didn't do and his bitterness was clear from his tone.
