135: A Connection- Part 2

Seraphina noticed her expression and sighed. 

"I knew you'd react like this."

"How else am I supposed to react? Humans serving demons? This is beyond unnatural. It's wrong."

Auriel said sharply. 

Seraphina's smile didn't waver.

"Why is it wrong? Because it goes against the stories you've been told? Against the divine order you believe in?"

Auriel crossed her arms. 

"Humans were not meant to serve demons. Demons corrupt. It is in their nature."

Seraphina chuckled.

"Oh, how little you know. These humans came to us of their own volition. We protect them, and in return, they offer their service. Unlike the gods, we do not demand faith without proof. We give them tangible benefits—power, security, and knowledge they would never gain under the rule of your kind."
