I don’t know. I’ve met the Millennium Earl face-to-face a number of times, and I can’t say I’m closer to understanding him than I was before.
[ He knows the day he does understand the Earl is the day he’ll have to give up everything to the Fourteenth inside of him. But now that’s a subject Allen will avoid mentioning. ]
Yes. Saving every Akuma is my purpose in life.
[ He says, very seriously. Then, he smiles. Despite the nature of their conversation, despite the heavy implication of “purpose in life” there. ]
As long as I keep on fighting, then a peaceful future for both humans and Akuma can definitely be achieved.
