Uhhh...
Dante stood there with stupefaction, and the eyes of the three hellfire demons bulged. Even Volud was stunned into silence as he lay on the floor while glancing at the place where his former 'partners' were.
The room fell into a palpable silence.
Dante had heard that among certain species, bloodline was absolute and had near-metaphysical effects on each other. The Dragon race, the Phoenix race, and, in fact, many beast races had that limitation.
It seemed that the one for demons was even more intense, as high-rank demons literally exploded into a blood mist upon him being near them without even consciously releasing his aura. Immediately, Dante sighed as he realized his plan to subjugate the demon realm of various quantum worlds was now useless.
Cleaned up now.
