The Demon Realm was silent.
Kael Veyris stood at its peak, having erased victory itself. No enemies remained only higher unknowns waiting beyond awareness.
For the first time, Kael didn't move forward.
He watched.
From the deepest layer of the Demon Realm, Nyx Vael awakened.
Not a demon.
Not a god.
Not created accidentally.
Nyx was forged intentionally.
He was Kael's first Observer General a being designed to exist inside realms Kael no longer needed to enter.
Abilities limited, but broken.
Realm Surveillance sees everything inside the Demon Realm
Authority Echo can borrow a fraction of Kael's power
Null Resistance immune to erasure within Kael's domains
Command Voice demons obey him as if Kael spoke
Nyx knelt not out of fear, but respect.
You built a realm too vast to rule alone.
Kael nodded.
Exactly why you exist.
Nyx stood, eyes glowing crimson black.
I'll guard what you no longer need to look at.
Kael turned toward the unknown beyond realms.
Good. Things get dangerous again from here.
The Demon Realm sealed behind him.
