Chapter 79
The only reason demon slayers existed was to safeguard the interests of people. Demons were not how movies often portrayed them. They were not always about possessing humans and taking full control of their bodies. In most cases, they didn't even find the need to do that.
Demons were also not ugly creatures with jagged teeth, massive horns, and red, burned skin. They often looked normal, sometimes so normal that they could not be identified in the middle of a crowd. Only when a demon revealed its true form could one clearly separate it from humans.
The only other way to identify them was through their Infernal presence. In other words, through the use of Infernal power or the detection of an Infernal or Demonic Core.
Ares had seen Axel use Infernal Slash and possibly Hellrand Slash. If Ares truly was the brother of a demon slayer, and if he knew demons existed, then he should have known what Axel truly was.
So the question remained. Why hadn't he killed Axel?
