Back in the ballroom after the start of the party, it was time for the wedding couple to present their first dance. Elise was offered a hand and Ian had knelt in front of her as he did so. She took his hand unhesitatingly and was pulled to his immediate embrace. One of his hand caught her waist, while Elise's hand had settled on his shoulders.

"I must be a bad dancer," Elise whispered. The song that was played by the orchestra was soft and gentle, but inside the room the sound of he instruments dampened the sound, and she had spoken in whisper so her words would be heard. "It is my first time ever dancing," not to mention in front of the people who had their eyes hammered on her.

While Elise had gotten used to the sharp gazes that the people gave, she couldn't be at rest with the sharp gazes of the people that wanted to be judging on every move she made.

She had just talked about being terrible when her heels slipped and Ian twirled her waist, pulling her closed where the tips of their nose touch and a faint gasps could be heard from the guests who hadn't expect the waltz to turn intimate. Elise whose heart slipped over the small slip saw Ian who was smiling, "Are you afraid of making mistake in front of me or are you afraid that one of those guests speak about you?"

Ian always knew what was running in her mind and while people see this as intimidating, Elise didn't have anything to hide in her mind and it was because Ian was a partner who made her comfortable when it comes to speaking her mind aloud. "Both," she answered.

"First, my love," Ian took her hand, running it over her head and used his other hand to turn her body. Elise felt her skirt blooming as her body did a full turn before she meet Ian's eyes again as his hand came back to wreath her waist, "I don't mind you stepping on my feet. It doesn't hurt neither does it bother me. Second from now on you are the lady of Warine. Those who spoke about you would be a lot more than now and I suggest you to keep a generous heart or if you want, I have another solution."

"Do you mean by killing them?" Elise asked because she knew that was running in his mind.

"You studied well which mean you know what to do; tell me their name, jolt it down, or give me a whisper and if it is their tongue, eyes, or limbs that you want I should be there to fulfill all your wishes. Other than that, we can make them magically 'poof'," Ian used his other hand to mimed a small burst. "Simple, isn't it?"

Elise didn't know whether she could chuckle as though Ian's words were ominous, she can't help but take it with a smile, "I believe my heart is generous, you don't have to think about the second solution." Being the lady of Warine, Elise know that her dear husband was skillful when it comes to killing people and she want to keep the list of death as little as possible. "I realize that while those people talk and words can hurt, it would be endless if I bother with every of their littlest word."

"Correct," Ian followed the music and Elise noticed how sift and talented he was in dancing, something she only now know and was glad to know. "But don't be too generous because if I were to hear a wind about their trash talk to you. I will get their heads."

At the end of the dance both Elise and Ian bowed to each other and while most wedding couple would get back to their seats, there were too many people in the ballroom that wished to offer their congratulation. Elise wrapped her hand around Ian as they made a little round in the ballroom while some guests had danced the next waltz. Many people came and Elise only smiled when necessary, keeping her words less not because she couldn't understand what the people were speaking but she took her time to study the people she met and learned their characters.

"Blessing to you, milady. I could never expect the castle to look this bright, it is a very beautiful day for a very lovely wedding. I felt blessed to see the ceremony in the Church. It almost makes me cry," said the Lord of Marshforth, Lord Lewis Charchiel.

"Thank you for coming, Lord Lewis," Elise politely answered the man whose ears was sharp at the tip, a proof that he was an elf. Seeing him she remembered how most faeries live in Marshforth and she can't forget to ask, "I heard that the faeries' land had been facing a drought. Are the faeries living well?"

It had been months since her separation with Aryl, her little faery friend who had left to her own land.

Ian understood the intention in Elise's question and Lewis who the two stared pursed his lips. His slightly silver green colored hair fell straight over his neck, cut evenly in a length that wasn't short but neither long. "Assuming that you have heard about Marshforth you must have heard about how the magical beasts in the forest had gone missing. While us, the elves are able to communicate with faeries or enter the lands, it had been months since we are able to meet or step inside the land. I do not know whether they are alright but we can hope that no problem should invoke in the land."

Elise narrowed her eyes in question, "Is it normal for the faeries' land to lock themselves?"

"It is not often done but when facing dangers they would immediately lock their lands from visitors. I remember there was a time faeries went away... around nine hundred years ago," Lewis answered and they talked a little more before the elf went.

Ian watched Elise who turned concerned on the faeries land and said, "Don't you find something strange about nine hundred years ago when the faeries went missing?"

Nine hundred years had a ring in her mind and Elise said, "The time that you turn into a demon?"

Ian nod his head, "Around that time, more specifically four to five months before I turn into a demon, I also heard news about the faeries disappearing, my best guests is they are avoiding to get caught in the affair of Hell and Heaven. The faeries are said to be one of the few creatures sensitive to the shift of the world."

Which mean a new demon would be born? But a shift of the world doesn't spin only on a new birth of a demon. "I hope the future wouldn't be dark."

"I am here," Ian winked one of his eyes while bending his neck to cover her sight, "As your husband I am also your light. Our future would never be dark, my love. Mark my words."

In the other part of the room, Lucifer popped his head on the Demon who had taken the appearance of a human. His eyes were black similar to his jet black hair that was partitioned in the middle. Some of his hair that was in the medium length covered the sides of his forehead. His cheeks were hollow and his eyes were bleak, holding a passive and cold ambience.

"Tell me how did you hid your golden eyes, Levi?" Lucifer asked, his voice irritatingly friendly that had Leviathan to ignore him and continue to drink while keeping his eyes on his dearest daughter. His thick black brows drew together when he saw how close Ian was when it comes to holding Elise's waist.

The glass he held almost crack and Lucifer couldn't hold his laughter any longer. "Guess what. I have the most sins here yet I am able to shift into the family quite well. You know you might have to stop that pity party of yourself and come to face your daughter now. She is lonely you know. She wish to have a father, a family. I know how terrible it is for a daughter not to have a father."

"You have a daughter?" Leviathan questioned to Lucifer who scoffed.

"My lovely sister. She once always looked forward to the day she could meet her father but you know he had died. I tried to fill the position but a father is a position not a brother could replace," Lucifer then waved his hand, "This talk is not about me. So when are you planning to tell her? That you are here beside her and you have come back. My nephew seems to know that you were the one who walked her down the aisle. You should have seen his cheeky smile."

"I saw that," Leviathan placed the drink beside him on the round table, almost slamming it down but he calmed himself and healed the crack he made on the surface of the glass. "She will know it soon and I will make it in the near future to meet her. Of course not in a way you did."

"Listen to me who have passed this phase, Levi. The start isn't the problem. You can come as a brute and then softened their hearts. It is the truths the two children want and we have hidden the truth because we wish to protect them. They are far forgiving then we expect them to be. Good luck," Lucifer offered his hand to pat Levi's shoulders but the man had glared him no to touch and walked away.

Left alone Lucifer thought about who he should tease only when suddenly a presence of a man had entered the castle and his eyes widened before a cruel smile came to his lips.

"Master!" Malphas who came in time called in a hurry as he sensed the man's presence as well.

"Let's bring this outside. I don't want to ruin this beautiful day," Lucifer said and at once he left the place, zapping a way in a single blink.
