[ The look of amusement falls rather quickly to a serious and analytical one as Sebastian listens, since this is honestly more of an answer than he expected to get. Yet, his question is answered in full and not at all in equal parts. He can't say it's unexpected, since such is sort of the nature of such a powerful being to not be boxed into a category easily, but... It's still mildly disappointing, since it means dealing with an unknown variable far larger than Sebastian likes. If nothing else, it at least solidifies his idea on how to treat this entity.
It may not be a demon, but giving it the same courtesy he would to one of his higher-ranking brethren certainly wouldn't hurt. Something as powerful as a high-ranking demon had to be treated with courtesy, obedience and distrust in equal measures. Something significantly moreso had to be given far deeper amounts of each. ]
That is what I expected, in a way. It is not so literal, mind, but there is much here that I have read of from minds of human philosophers and theologians about pleroma and kenoma. [ His pronunciation is very slightly different than how Makoto is used to hearing it by now, both indicating that he means something different, but the Greek accent is just how Sebastian remembers hearing it ] Though the kenoma was not the empire of a regent in their tellings.
[ His smile quirks a little bit, since as he continues, it's a humor that's distinctly a demon's ]
Their kenoma is where the Demiurge was born and where he reigns, but if the Creator has left His throne, I suppose naturally a Regent would be needed. What poor luck for His children if so, since it seems neither is all that interested in preserving their existence.
