Chapter 483: Blissful Night-I

Moonlight avoided to be in the presence of Satan and perhaps not only the moon that was avoiding the man but the entire nature. A deer had came not too far from them and as if sensing the rooting evilness from the man who stood proudly on the ground, it quickly ran. The sight of the deer caught Satan's eyes and in time after constantly avoiding, the cloud dispersed from the moon, letting the light to shine over the man.

Orias, who didn't receive his master's replied slowly lifted his head up, seeing Satan who had taken a form of a human. His appearance was of a man in his earlier thirties but he looked younger for the age. His hair was deep blue in color and while holding the appearance of a proud handsome man, he also had the stern look on his eyes that clouded a person from reading through his expression.

"How does she look?" Satan finally questioned.

Orias gulped, for hundred of years he had worked with his master but he couldn't calm himself when the master questioned him as the fear was still deep in his blood marrow.

"The princess has the appearance of a beautiful lady, she is the age of eighteen with perhaps another four month," he looked up, noticing that this wasn't all that Satan wanted to know. The servant who could tell that Satan wished to know whether Elise had taken a little similarity of his late wife then heard, "She has a very bright blue eyes, your majesty. Very similar to the late Queen."

Satan's eyes widened and it was difficult for Orias to tell whether that look on his face was happiness, interest, anger, or upset. "And the groom?"

"He appears closely similar to Lord Lucifer," Orias answered and this time he could see the clear distaste from Satan. His master then went to silent, appearing as though he was torn between two choices: kill or not. Not wanting to suffer from silence, Orias then came and asked, "Milord, may your lowly servant ask who is it that you fought against?"

"Michael," Satan answered and he clicked his tongue, "From this trip today, I could tell that I have been a little drawn away from the problem between my kingdom and they thought when a lion is silent they could take him as a joke." The words Satan had was calm but the underlying menace was clear and it had Orias to shudder form chill. "Someone from this human world is disrupting the balance. Ariel wouldn't like this. She wanted peace," he hummed to himself, "Seems like the time has come. Orias."

Orias questioned in his mind by what Satan meant by the time has come and he knelt on the ground, "Yes, your majesty?"

"Find me a castle and an identity to live in this land. We will be straightening the Demons who had overdue their stay in the mortal's world." He marched away from the place it before he left, his eyes turned back to look at the castle that were still holding the wedding party. His lips were set on a single line before the tail of his lips quirked in a smile.

Orias passed by the forest, following his master when he noticed the deer that had stopped breathing as its body laid on the ground.

Not far from them, Lucifer propped his chin with his arm as he sat on the top of the tree. His bright red eyes curving as his smile widened. Malphas was on his crow form when he heard Lucifer whispered, "The hours of darkness is coming. The performer has all been set. Bring Asmodeus to the castle, Malphas. I need him to predict a future."

After coming back to the ballroom, Elise was holding to the drink which held no alcohol to make her drunk. Her eyes shuffled at the people in the room, helping Ian who had left to find whether Lucifer was still around the castle when her blue eyes stopped at the man who was standing before a pillar. The man was tall and slender in appearance. He had the look to make him standout but Elise had stared at him because she noticed unlike most people he hadn't come to greet her or Ian like the rest of the guests.

The man's hair was back similar to his eyes which Elise noticed to held a hint of golden and she wondered if it was because he had stood under the chandelier. And as she looked at the man, his gaze shifted from the wall to meet her as if he noticed her gaze.

He put on an awkward smile as if trying to be friendly which doesn't seem like an act he often done.

Elise offered the man a bow, "Who are you looking at?" and Ian's voice came beside her. She turned to ok that the guests who had came to talk with him had all went on their way, leaving only them together.

"Do you know—" Elise looked at the spot where the man had stood earlier, finding him had disappeared and her forehead was replaced with a light frown. "There was someone whom I saw earlier. I can't tell you well but it feels like I know him." There was an intangible connection that Elise felt with the man but he couldn't point his finger.

Ian hummed in response, looking at the pillar where Elise's eyes set at, "How does he look like? His eyes colors?"

"It was black. He looked fairly normal," maybe he was someone who she had seen before in the past or perhaps she had found him familiar because he reminded her of someone, like Lady Rachel did with her golden hair although until now, she couldn't tell who it was that Lady Rachel reminded her of or who the man she saw now was similar to. "Did you find Lucifer?"

Ian shook his head. The frown on his forehead was still deep, "That fucker left. I will make sure he kneel and apologize to you when you met him again. And look at that," Ian hummed with a grin when his eyes looked at something that happened in the ballroom. "Seems like new love blooming, isn't it?"

Elise shifted her sight, following his gaze to stop and look at Maroon whose head was bent down to look at the woman who was shorter than him. She found the woman's appearance to be beautiful but she didn't seem to be dressed for the occasion that caused her to stand out like sore thumb. It had Elise to want and lend her dress as she knew the feeling of standing out for being odd wasn't a great experience. "Who is she?"

"A human who live in our castle after she had been kidnapped by the dark sorcerers. But—" Ian chuckled faintly as he looked around him, "—seems like there is a lot of Demons in my castle now that we opened the gate. Let's keep a vigilant watch on our surrounding, alright?"

Elise lightly frowned and she nodded to keep his words on her mind. She can't help but to continue wonder who the man she saw earlier. The way he had smiled, now that she rethought about it in her mind, she could see how it appears as though the man know her but not in a dangerous way. She noted that it was more of a sincere smile that was a little awkward.

The party continued until the clock strike to twelve where it was time for the guests to leave had come. As carriages left until no single one left on the ground of the castle, Elise had retired back to Ian's room which was now hers as well. But before entering the room, she had came to her own room, taking a bath and now, she stood before the door, feeling her heart racing at the thought of how she would spend the rest of the night.

The lion that had been starved, and her who is the prey of the lion, Elise could see how hungry Ian was upon the night that they shared the last time. After the last night where they shared their affection, Elise had not spent another night in Ian's room and she could tell it was his own way to restrain himself. But tonight, whatever leash that had locked him by his limbs and neck had vanished and she felt nervousness mixed with stains of eagerness keeping her on her toes.

Reaching out her hand, she tried to knock the door when she saw the golden round knob of the door turned...
