Lion's Vice Out of the seven cardinal sins, Raze has fallen to Pride.
He is an incredibly prideful creature, acting as though he is better than everyone else. Not only in appearances, but in all other measurements. Strength and wit included.
There is
some truth to this, though. As a member of the Demon Clan, he was born with dark cultivated energy and only grew stronger as he cultivated more, having more physical strength and endurance than the average lion, as well as a greatly extended lifespan. And, as he has lived longer than an average lion, he has had all the more time to amass random knowledge. By these merits alone, though they were not so much earned, rather, they were given to him, he has reason to boast that he is better than others.
And he does.
Though, deep within, only Raze knows his true self. Raze became an annoyingly prideful creature in order to combat his own insecurities. Being a member of the Demon Clan, he was terrified of what he might do. What if he lost himself to a violent nature, unable to control himself because of the dark energy within him? What if other members of the Clan targeted him? It was not an abnormal occurrence for infighting to occur.
At first, his prideful behavior was forced, only shown in order to hide his own insecurities. Now, though, after so long of pretending, his nature has become warped and, he, too, began to believe in the mask he wore and the lies he told.
At this point, he is so warped, in fact, that he has even got it into his head that is better than the former Demon King of the Clan, and has set out to prove he is better than they are. Even at the risk of his life. But, of course, he is so prideful that he doesn't believe it is a risk.
But he needs a wake up call.[327]
