'I think they needed me more than they let on,' he added.
It felt strange getting so much attention, even with his strength.
There were plenty of other Demon Kings with potential, after all—some nearly as powerful as him and eager for a chance to rise in rank.
He wondered what made him so essential to their plans. Perhaps it wasn't just about strength; maybe there was something unique about his abilities, or maybe they had a specific task that only he could handle.
Whatever it was, it had to be important if even someone as hot-tempered and ruthless as Tara was willing to spare him.
This meant he could act more boldly in the future, pushing boundaries without fearing immediate consequences.
'Why do I feel like demons appreciate me more than humans?' he muttered to himself.
It was ironic, really, but considering he'd been killing and devouring humans from day one, their reaction was probably to be expected.
