Chapter 553: Crimson Chrysanthemums-III

Elise heart had stopped beating at the same time Ian's heart had stopped its beat. She pulled him softly from her shoulders as she felt his head weighed on her shoulders. Slowly bringing him away, Elise finally met his his face. His expression was serene as if he had made peace with everything in this world; as if there was no longer rope that bind him to the world.

"No," Elise softly called out for his name. Again and again with her hoarse voice until finally she let out a piercing scream. The ground beneath him started to quiver. The blue sky that had just appeared was once again swallowed by the black clouds.

Thunders rang from the sky as rain fell down accompanied by the purple bolts. Elise cries were submerged in the sound of harsh rains. 

Esther and Beelzebub walked out of the White Mansion which shakes as they felt the echoes of Elise's power. The birds and animals on the forest had made their escape as well, as if they feared for what was about to come.
