Edwin had been utterly shocked to hear that sentence from Tronte. However, when he thought deeply about it, he realized that there was nothing strange for Tronte to know about his identity as a demon.
'Considering how widespread his network is, I should have expected him to connect the dots by now. The situation is not out of my control yet,' Edwin thought and was slightly relieved.
He was confident in dealing with this issue.
"I know you must have a lot of questions for me, Tronte. But believe me, I am not connected to demons. This is merely a power I used to protect myself and get closer to my ambition," Edwin tried to explain fervently.
