""I've seen uglier! You just don't cut it! You're not nearly as hideous as a monster should be! Don't you underestimate me, a little uglier and you might actually scare me! Keep it up, I'm sure you can do it!"
Eternal Night had always tried to torment this little monster.
But the things humans feared seemed to hold no fear for the little monster.
The Seven Demon Emperors had clearly made some alterations to this little Reverser's memories.
Time after time, Eternal Night delved into the little monster's dreams, wanting to find what it held dear, what it sought to protect.
Human fears all stem from the destruction of that which they love, whether by others or by themselves.
The little monster seemed indifferent to the torment inflicted upon it, but Eternal Night believed, it was human, not a demon...
As long as this little monster was still human, deep within its heart there had to be something it wanted to protect.
Indeed, such people and things existed.
