The demon couldn't believe his luck in finding someone with such innate evil as Alex.
He had expected that it would take much more effort and time in order to convince
Alex to commit such atrocities as he was wreaking on the world. All it took was a thin
veil of deception to convince him that none of this was real and that's why it was okay
to act this way. At least that's how he was rationalizing it to himself. It was time to
start breaking down the veil and let Alex slowly realize that he was not in some
fantasy world but the real one. The demon had faith that playing on Alex's lust for
destruction and power he could overcome his superficial sense of morality.
