Kapitel 1083: Hard to Believe

Things were easier for the young lord before he met Alexie, who made him experience the suffering of others as if it were his own. Dorian had denied what the demon said about Karmic Resonance, the curse of suffering what he did to others, but he could no longer continue to do so.

In his aimless roaming of the forest, tailed by the feline who kept his distance, Dorian found peace. Isolation from the world allowed him to experience no pain as he could neither hurt others nor be hurt by his curse.

The peace allowed the young lord to be enlightened about another matter, emotional self-preservation. Humans had managed to survive so far because they were separated from one another. If every human could feel the same pain as others, he would lose his mind. Being separated was what allowed humanity to survive, which made Dorian realize the fate he had met.
