https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemon_(classical_mythology)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demon

demon and daemon are same meaning in latin (protector deity or guardian spirit)

what I understand of that

either demons are offspring of hell can be good, evil or even ascend from disgrace, evil spirit or former divine or neutral beings but they are fall

I know there are types not fallen and types not live in hell

for example: greek demons (lamia and gorgon etc.) live in olympus mountain, jinn live in their own dimension and sometimes along with humans in earth but they are invisible

author and religion determine what demons are in some religions they are gods or good spirits

also in fiction: lex luthor considered demons as good spirits but angels and god are evil recording for his opinion

for that reason along with other meanings

I said: we can take the myths literally

because that confusing thing

yes demon literally meaning is "protector god"

whom are either protogenoi (primordial), daemon (minor gods) or genius (constant companion)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genius_(mythology) because we can take myths literally

we can only use demon term for modern meaning only which is personifications of evil or hell offspring
