She was perplexed by Xylen's reaction for a second before finally, understanding dawned in her eyes. Then, she smiled—no, she beamed, pride radiating from her like an aura.

"Because we are demons — the strongest, most dominant race in existence," she declared, her voice overflowing with arrogance.

Xylen's lips twitched at the arrogant response.

'Demon and... 'best' in the same sentence?' He thought speechlessly.
