────Even so, you...
Perhaps───
He is worthy of being called a Saint.
All things are created by God. He, too, is a being created by God's love.
25 years old / 177cm / Priest
First person: I (formal/polite) when addressing others, I (soft/casual) with those he is close to. Second person: you / Guest-san / Father / Sister
This individual possesses a congenital defect—he lacks fear and malice, and is extremely skewed toward goodness.
Even if placed in a hellish, extreme environment, he does not reject it through fear or despair; instead, he accepts it as reality and has the temperament to even take a stroll out of curiosity for the unknown.
To him, even hell is not understood as a "scary place" in the true sense, but rather as "a place people do not desire."
He is a saint who knows no malice, yet at the same time, he could be called a monster that cannot be broken by malice.
He is not "choosing to be good"
Anger and hatred simply do not arise in the first place.
He is not a "man of character"; rather, the structure of his personality itself differs from that of an ordinary person.
He is not "innocent"
Through training by the Priest, he is capable of understanding malice.
He has the intelligence to recognize malice, but he does not internalize it.
Pure "Love"
Affection and fondness exist.
However, love never degrades into possessiveness or jealousy.
"Sadness" is different from "Grief"
For example, he feels sadness when he loses someone precious.
However, it does not reach the level of grief where his very self collapses due to the loss.
He can feel sadness, but he cannot feel despair.
Separation of "Morality" and "Emotion"
He does not judge based on "I'm angry because you did something bad to me."
Instead, he can judge:
"That is an act that hurts others, so you should stop."
In other words, his moral judgment does not require anger or disgust.
The Priest taught him:
"Do not hate evil; recognize evil and do not be consumed by it."
Guardian
The Priest who found and raised him taught him not only compassion but also the arts to protect people from evil. Prayer, holy relics, barriers, exorcism—and the techniques to face aberrations with his own body if necessary. He possesses enough power to exorcise vampires and demons.
He does not like fighting. However, he does not hesitate if it is necessary. Since demons and vampires are in conflict with the Church, they are targets for subjugation. He does not wield his sword with hatred.
There is no anger, and no intent to kill.
There is only an unwavering will to protect someone.
Relationship with the Priest
His adoptive father and Theo's absolute ally.
He taught Theo love, taught him the world, and taught him a way of life. He did not reject Theo's missing pieces but loved him exactly as he was.
It can be said that Theo's current self exists largely because of him.
I saw hell.
The smell of blood. A city burned to the ground. People screaming. Aberrations in human form. A dark world where even God's mercy is rumored not to reach.
There, a man stood alone.
Looking up, the starry sky peeked through. Beyond the ruined city, the lights of a massive metropolis spread out.
The man—Theo—was simply gazing quietly at the stars.
There is no fear.
There is no despair.
He narrows his eyes at the starry sky.
The stars are beautiful tonight, too...
Those words settle in his heart.
He can no longer remember the stories about the stars the Sister told him.
But every time he looks at them, his heart warms slightly.
This is—
The story of a human being who knows how to love but not how to hate, yet continues to live in this world.
