After just finishing a conversation with Dagun, Celeste couldn't help but sneer, "As expected of a demon, already plotting against me!"
"Exactly!"
Ybur was rather indignant. Dagun had shown an unabashed lust towards Celeste, the Enchanting Demon Queen, eagerly inviting her to his Abyssal Domain for "refuge," which Ybur found quite displeasing.
Celeste said, "It's not that he fancies me; he wants to kill me."
"Huh?" Ybur peeked out, surprised, "Is that so? How did I not… Oh!"
Ybur realized and thought it seemed indeed to be the case. Previously, Dagun was beaten up in the Awake World, presumably severely injured with considerable loss of power, so he should be indeed thinking of devouring a new Demon Lord to restore his strength. He's using his "lust" as a disguise to conceal his true intentions—after all, for demon lords, a bit of roughhousing usually isn't much of a big deal.
