Marasmus, who was currently assessing Darius silently, asked with a curious tone. "You… why are the laws of the Faust so fearful of you? What is… why are there newer and stronger laws overlapping my domain?"
Darius smiled widely even as he bowed. "Lord Marasmus, it is something unique to me, so please do not worry about it. You've lived for far more centuries than my feeble mind could comprehend, so I'm sure you've seen your fair share of battles."
"However, is there really a need to resort to such barbaric behavior? I would much rather genuinely like to barter with you on various matters so we may reach a concord. If you can feel the... uniqueness... surrounding me, then perhaps it will prove to you that my means may be beyond what you might expect a 'normal' mortal to have."
Marasmus didn't seem to be calmed down by Darius' nonchalant explanation.
