The ant Anima began to laugh loudly as it heard what Mark said!
"I know what happened to you, KING. You lost your power after the fight against the Anima Lord. You became weak and you were scared! That is why you went into hiding! You are no longer the Human KING that we fear! I shall harvest you and use your power to feed my queen! You shall serve as the life force that produces the next Anima Lord!"
The Anima Lord is what the Anima call the Armageddon class Anima. The anima all feared KING for a long time after the fight against the Armageddon. They witnessed his power and realized that he was too dangerous for any of them to stand a chance against him. If he could kill one of their Lords, then what chance would they have? But they slowly lost that feeling of fear as they no longer saw KING fighting on the front lines.
