The world itself has expanded but the number of threats that could affect it has also expanded as well. The number of Daemos did not increase at all which makes the demons struggle to observe and protect. Some of the Daemos are even in the mindset of no longer being the overseers of the world as they could feel that their efforts are also wasted. Some of them just basically wanted to protect Avalon as they already treat it as their sanctuary.
Adrian wanted to also stop the sentiments but the power of the Daemos is tied to the world barrier as well. Should the world barrier truly be destroyed, the Daemos will finally be freed from their sealed powers and become stronger than ever. The only downside of having that boost in power is the fact that foreign attacks will finally reach the world.
