Shiva raised his hand, his voice calm and measured."I have an idea to stop them—for now."
The room fell silent. The gods, who had been locked in heated debate, froze mid-sentence.
Zara arched a brow, surprised by their sudden quiet. She leaned toward Lilith and whispered,"Lilith, what are they talking about? I thought the Demon Lords were killed by the Saints. Why are they saying the gods fell in that war?"
Lilith lowered her gaze before answering softly,"From what my mother told me, the Saints—those blessed by Hera—only succeeded because the Demon Lords were already weakened by their war with the gods. Their demonic energy was nearly drained. Hera took advantage of that moment and empowered the Saints to finish them off."
Zara's eyes widened."They were already weak? But… legends say they nearly wiped out humanity."
