"How can you even-"
Adeline was about to protest but Theodore caressed her cheek and interrupted her, "Hear me out first. I think you remember that your demonic powers had gained their own characteristics." He paused and gave her a questioning look.
Adeline darted her eyes around recalling the times when she had acted very strangely as though she was not herself. And she nodded her head. "Yes, I was feeding off of people's fear. I even… I think I even fed off of Azriel's fear in the test."
"You did what?" Theodore's eyes almost popped out because of the shock. He was now sure that Azriel sealed her demonic powers because he was genuinely worried for her safety. And he was surprised as well as relieved that Adeline was still alive to tell the tale even after absorbing the aura from a child of God.
Such aura, no matter how small, would be fatal even for the demons and lower-level angels… leave alone the humans.
