(Douma's a human instead a demon. His mom's name will be Aiko and his dad will be Kazue. Not official)

He couldn't "feel" of what you call "emotions". Even in his very small age. Which normally children will be full of them as they easily express themselves but not for Douma. Although, he has heard of them, he doesn't know what it's like to have such things inside of you. Or even understand them. He doesn't even try since he doesn't see the value of them. Or why they exists. Or if they are. He pretends to have them with false friendly personality and a false cheery side. He doesn't even receive what you call "affections" from his own parents. Though he doesn't care. They're too busy grooming him into the religious leader of the Paradise Faith cult. They focus on making him the true founder who is gifted with his magnificent eyes from the Gods. Since they believed he can hear the voice of Gods rather than giving him "love" which is such a weird term to him. They're making him carry such responsibilities of hearing people's burden. He doesn't mind of course. The fact he has to pretend to even care about his followers' boring "sob" stories. Especially when they don't accept something so simple.

"Once they die, it's all just gonna return to nothing. They won't feel anything."

That's what he truly believes.

"And then they rot into the ground. As long as you live on this Earth, that's your eternal fate."

But he also believes he would help them.

To make them happy.

To have them to be a part of him.

However that changed when he met a pretty but naive girl by the river in the deep woods.

He honestly thought she was pretty stupid.

But.

He couldn't help to enjoyed being around her.

To the point, he actually feels.

How long will this last?

Is this okay?

It's starting to change his thoughts about reality and himself.
