Everyone was silent after his bold declaration.
"A primordial demon..." Remu whispered, the words barely leaving her lips.
It was as though the very mention of such a being had pulled the ground out from under her confidence.
The other demon gods also exchanged uneasy glances.
To claim to be a primordial demon was more than audacious—it was almost blasphemous.
Such entities were considered myths, beings so ancient and powerful that even the oldest of demons had only heard whispers of their existence.
"Impossible," Caurus muttered, his voice low and tinged with disbelief. "Primordial demons vanished eons ago. Even the Ancients only tell stories about them..."
Tara also stepped forward, her eyes narrowing as if trying to discern whether Reign's words were a trick or the terrifying truth.
"A claim like that... Do you understand what you're saying? To call yourself a primordial demon is to declare yourself above us all."
