( Basil simply takes in those words for a moment, listening closely to everything he has to say. It makes sense, given what Kazuya has told him. He's the one who told him about reincarnation, but Naoya was ultimately the one he had heard mention of the word revenge.

He didn't know why back then, and he hadn't wanted to push him to say anything. )

... I'm sorry.

( He looks down in thought. )

There were some things that Naoya had told me that I didn't really understand, but... I do now.

After everything you've told me, it all makes sense. I know that you said you don't regret anything, but... I-I just want you to be able to have a life that you can enjoy while you're here.

How did you-- end up as someone in control of so many demons?
