He did not love his father because he lacked the capability to love. Understanding that he was not in accordance with the world, he worked hard to try to be pure and beautiful like his father wanted. All throughout his teenage years, he did everything he could to overcome his defect. As a sinner by nature, he should punish himself physically and mentally following the morals in which he believed to keep balance in the world. Unable to reach an epiphany, he arrived at the single conclusion that he did not have the sense to feel normal happiness. He turned to religion, believing that God may eventually bring him salvation but still saw no results. He could not find greater pleasure than the pain of others. As he matured, he wondered about the nature of his existence, that if the world hates evil, what was the purpose of something that was never wanted being given life. He eventually married Claudia Hortensia while still performing his duty of judging heretics. He tried loving her in order to earn happiness, and she truly did love him, and even bore his child, Caren Hortensia. Their time together only lasted for two years, and it was unable to change him. He considered suicide only for Claudia to commit suicide to prove that he could feel for her if he felt any grief, but he ended up only grieving over the fact that he couldn't kill her with his own bare hands. Caren was sent to Claudia's relatives' custody after and he continued worked for the Assembly of the Eighth Sacrament, concentrating on training as an Executor.
