"I heard you killed the heir to your father's throne, and that's why he cast you out. How much of it is true?"
Kai chuckled, low and amused. "Partly true. But I couldn't kill a Saint like Azrael, even if I tried. No one can. And he did not cast me out. He always wanted me to cause chaos in the world. Only the gods have that kind of power to kill a saint. Az never wanted to be a Reaper. He was determined to ascend. So… your mother and I gave him a little nudge. Helped him slip out of the underworld. We lied that we had killed him with a godly weapon that we've found."
He smirked. "He insists he's not a Reaper, but as far as I know… he still is. Just one who now works for the heavens and his job is a bit different. I feel he is here to take someone, why? I don't know."
Ren giggled softly. "So he hates that title?"
"Oh, absolutely." Kai licked his lower lip, a spark of mischief in his eyes. "And here we are, gossiping like old souls."
