Chapter 101: Grim Reaper’s persuasion

Ian narrowed his eyes over the chick. It had only been a day passed between them and it would seem from the way the grim reaper had called Elise by her nickname, they had somewhat gotten closer through something. The 'something' had Ian's curiosity to set his lips that were smiling to turn into a single line,

"Elly?" He pressed his words with a cool tone, the red eyes he had narrow in a deeper look at the chick who didn't noticed Ian's change in expression.

"Yes! Elly!" the chick confirmed somewhat proud when he repeated the name. Ian only hummed tonelessly at the proudness the chick emitted and his eyes then shifted to meet Elise's blue ones when she had stood up from the chair. With their eyes gazing at each other, Elise found his eyes looking at her seeming to be displeased of something.

Ian pointed his finger to the chick and Hallow who was still on the ground suddenly felt his body floating to the air. Ian brought the chick to his hand and hold him by the back of his neck and sighed sarcastically, "You've been hired here so why do I found there is nothing useful from you?"

Hallow flapped his wings and his green eyes glared bravely. "I did work and if you want me to be useful for once change me into an animal that is useful!" he reasoned,

Ian stared down at the chick. Despite knowing what he is, the grim reaper is well grave enough to question whatever he did that Ian didn't know if he should commend the chick's stupidity or to burn him by a snap of his finger.

"Like a what exactly?" Ian gave him a chance to think but it didn't mean he would change his mind.

Hallow wasn't sure Ian would immediately agree but being suddenly given the chance to choose, he was taken aback and took time to think. What kind of animal had hands to work and enough limbs for him to run or hold something? Finding no quick answer he then frowned, "Not animal but human! Let me change into a human!"

Ian grinned at the chick his eyes looking at him like a little fool. "Do you expect me to put you into advantage and let you pull a fast on us?"

Hallow pulled his brows down between his large eyes and with a mouthful of breaths he harrumphed. "I am the eight head of grim reaper, one of most knowledgeable and strongest in the land of the dead who was bestowed by the name Hallow! The great I would never do such a witless thing to hoodwink someone!"

"Still untrustworthy." Ian responded before placing the chick to the table.

Hallow looked at Ian's expression and sighed. It was harder than he thought to persuade the demon into an understanding. "Let me explain you, Ian-"

"Lord Ian." Ian corrected and tsked at the chick.

"Okay! Okay!" Hallow waved his hand, "Lord Ian, see Elly, do you want her to have a friend who speak in a chick body? Do you want her to be called as crazy?" Knowing Ian's fondness at Elise, Hallow knew what to do to persuade the demon.

Elise knew Hallow was trying to persuade Master Ian by bringing her but nevertheless she replied truthfully, "I don't mind, we could be careful."

Hallow wrapped his wings to his waist if he had one, "That not good! We could never be careful forever," he raised his tone narrowly and his brows danced at Ian waiting for his confirmation which didn't came.

"There is away for you not to speak forever again." replied Ian as if it was the just idea he had.

"Okay, I could tell from your expression that's a no, okay, okay." he sounded as if he had surrendered himself to the edict Ian gave and his sticky feet walked toward Elise's hand. When he had nestled himself on her hand he then pulled his upper lips. "Let's go Elly. Let's leave this man and his stubborn head which I'm sure weigh no different than the stones in hell!"

Ian only stared at the brainless chick. He called himself Hallow but to Ian he was more suitable to be called hollow as he have no brain in his head. "I have a new choice." this had Hallow rejoice but the smile didn't stay long when Ian continued, "A piglet. They are pink in color which look better than yellow. I can change you now if you want to." drawled Ian with his finger circling in the air.

"WHAT? No!" Hallow stopped and hid behind Elise. "Look at him Elly! Look at what he is doing! Protect me!"

"Such noisy thing." Ian commented. If he hadn't seen Hallow before as a grim reaper he would have seen him as a ghost if a three year old child throwing tantrum inside a chick's body.

"You could go now, Elise and you could als bring that chick with you when you go outside. Although he seem useless he could be useful when it comes to meeting ghosts."

"Wait!" Hallow interjected in between gathering the attention, "How about me? If I leave from this mansion the death angels will come for me!"

"Hide you scent, reaper. Have living in the chick body for a day makes you forget that?" Hallow sang a long 'Oh' as if he had really forgotten that he could do such a thing. Hallow then walked out of the library before Elise. When she was about to reach the door, she then suddenly felt her hand pulled and the door behind her was closed with her body pressed on the surface of the door.

"Elly." he called and her heart skipped a beat again, leaving her lips to quiver beneath his breaths, "Which do you like better?"

She looked at him puzzled by his words and guess belatedly that Master Ian had asked her to chose between Elise and Elly. Both was her name but if she had to be asked which on she like better when called by Ian, it would be, "Elise." she replied and his smile looked widened in a glee.

Ian grinned, enjoying how her heartbeat sounds and how her expression looked alluringly sweet that beckoned him to have her in one large gulp. But eating her was the last thing he would want literally. There was still more fun and exciting plays he could do for her to enjoy it with him. "I thought so. Would you be going straight back to your room now?" he asked her and Elise questioned in her mind what if she said she doesn't?

"I will after another chores." she tried to held back her breaths as she was afraid it would brush to his lips and the thought made her bit her lower lips in giddiness.

"Good night." she heard his wish breathed out beside her ears and when he released his hand from the door, he saw Elise looked at him with a needy face he knew she hadn't meant to make such an expression.

Even as she had exited the library, Elise could feel her ears heated up with his words. Hallow who was locked out of the door patted Elise's ankle with a look of intrigued, "What are you doing now? You promised to knit me a cloak. It's cold and I don't know until when I will be able to withstand this coldness!"

"I will, could you please wait until tomorrow come, Hallow? I will work on it tonight."

"Okay!" Hallow beamed.
