Aku was starting to lose his patience.
How dare an insignificant fairy mock him, a demon king?
Sylvie had overstepped. She had crossed a line she never should have crossed.
The words coming out of that mouth were too insulting to let pass.
Attacking her wasn't an impulsive reaction. It was simple rationality.
Or at least that's what Aku told himself.
For the first time, the demon king needed to justify himself internally, since admitting that a creature as insignificant as Sylvie had managed to get under his skin so much was humiliating.
Aku, a cold and rational demon king who is guided by reason, not emotions.
The idea that an insignificant fairy had broken that nature was humiliating to acknowledge.
However, he couldn't help it.
He had gotten angry. He had reached his limit.
How dare she insult him like that?
He had achieved great things.
He had broken his destiny, the destiny under which all demon kings in history, all his predecessors, had been killed.
