Chapter 623: How Thread Connects-I

Elise blinked her eyes to let her tears falling down. Leaving Lucy\'s side, her eyes met Ian\'s for a brief of second but unlike her, he cannot see her. She continued to dash to the place where the angel was. The angel, who was called Camael.

When she had arrived to the location where the angel stood at, her eyes narrowed at the faint smile that appeared on the man\'s face. However, his upper half face was covered by the hood of his cloak which made it difficult for her to identify who he was. Elise didn\'t hesitate and rushed forward, with the intention of pulling down the hood.

The angel didn\'t noticed her as his eyes were focused on Lucy\'s last moments and with Elise\'s power, he couldn\'t see her with naked eyes, allowing Elise to pull the hood with ease and expose the angel\'s face.

It took Elise one second to pulled down the hood but takes her one minute to wrap her mind on the face she witness. The person was someone she knew all along. The angel and the priest, Redrick.

Redrick, on the other hand, was alerted when he felt the pull on his hood. His eyes darted to see who had came behind him without his notice only for him to see no one.

"Who is that?!" Redrick raised his voice. They were quite far from the scene and the villagers\' united screaming dampened the man\'s voice even as he had screamed.

"It\'s you," Elise scrunched her brows. At this point, she wasn\'t the least surprised by whom she had seen. She had expected the worse outcome, expecting the people near her to betray her so her heart wouldn\'t suffer from heartbreak in a crushing impact as she felt during Mila\'s betrayal. The person, the angel, who all this time had caused chaos, even being the one who ignored Lucy\'s plead of help had been none other than Redrick.

Redrick\'s eyes flared at the spot where Elise was standing at. He couldn\'t see her but had heard her voice and used it as his lead to locate her, "You would be very regretful if you don\'t show yourself now."

"Speak that to yourself," answered Elise. She took a step forward and her body manifested to the current timeline. Redrick who saw her narrowed his eyes as he tried to remember whom the woman was but he was sure this had been the first time for him to see the woman.

"I don\'t think we know each other," Redrick said to her, still trying to remember who she might be. "What business do you have to do with me?"

"Who are you to Lady Lucy?" Elise questioned instead of answering the angel. In time such as this replying to an enemies\' question would be foolish but the enemies often do the one to talk, thought Elise which was proven correct as Redrick\'s smile less face turned stoney.

"You are acquainted to Lucy?" Redrick in Elise\'s memory was someone who was kind and gentle, he had never showed his anger and was one of the very few people she would expect to be cruel. But alas, people only show their masked self as they appeared to her, hiding their true self and their ill intentions.

"By the scent you are a demon," answered Redrick to Elise, "But perhaps only half of it. Regardless of half you are still a demon." And in one instance, the look on Redrick\'s face turn darker, his veins appearing on his forehead as he appeared to be angered by knowing the fact Elise\'s was a demon.

One look was enough to tell Elise of the deep hatred Redrick had against demons that took her back to the time when Redrick had asked Ian to drink the holy water.

Was this all because his hatred to demons?

But Lady Lucy wasn\'t a demon. Perhaps she was born from a demon and angel but she inherit none of the blood, having only a little power in her that could barely do any harm. With Lady Lucy\'s kindness, violent is even more far fetched compared to walking on water.

"Why are you doing this to Lady Lucy? You were the one who had bound her with that rope," Elise inquired him, watching how the man didn\'t defend himself. "She had nothing to you."

"She didn\'t and I didn\'t killed her. You can see with your own eyes who is killing her. I only gave the push needed for the betterment of the world."

Elise was enraged with how Redrick didn\'t want to take the blame he deserves. "The betterment of yourself you mean? Your own benefit? Lady Lucy was the kindest lady I have ever met. She would not hurt a fly not even when they hurt her," Elise might not have known much about Lucy but she knew the pure heart the woman had. "I don\'t understand whose benefit you are hoping to profit here."

"You won\'t understand if you still have the demon\'s blood in you," answered Redrick to her. "Demons are vile. They are abhorrent. They could do anything if it is to achieve their goal, even going so far by tricking those who are innocent into making a sin they could never repent from."

"If they are vile and they are abhorrent what about you?" Elise asked and the Angel\'s eyes widened as he looked at her. "Are you no less vicious and spiteful compared to them? You said demons would do anything if it was to achieve their goal. It is the same as what you are doing now, Camael. But instead of tricking the innocents, you had killed one. You killed an innocent lady and caused further pain to others. The demons you mentioned might be evil. However, you are no less than them."

At once Redrick felt offended. His eyes flared with rage as how he was put on the same ground as the demons he loathed, "Lucy wouldn\'t have died and I would have saved her if not for how she is supporting that brother of hers in his evil path. And you could have stayed alive if not for the words you said and the support you give to the demons."
