For others and your clarification - the definition for "demigods" is not "devils". To put it in simple terms it is the word used for someone considered to be half man & half god.
from the dictionary - demigod: 1)a mythological being with more power than a mortal but less than a god. 2) a person so outstanding that he seems to approach the divine.
demi: 1) half 2) one that partly belongs to (a specified type or class)<demigod>
