I assume the eternal peace is the fact that his family is promised to be protected and compensated after the sacrifice has done its job. It seems to heavily stem from the abuse he witnessed during his childhood which is why he "killed" himself in order to be the perfect sacrifice. Because as long as he does his job, his family will not be harmed and will not have to live in worry anymore. Which is why he's so hung up on being devoured as it is the only way to achieve "eternal peace" (i.e. not being tormented by the head family and knowing his family will be safe) which only SM can provide
When SM said to stop i think he meant the way he kept saying he was ready to be devoured. Because in SM's eyes he's not a sacrifice anymore and should not see himself as such as he granted him immunity (why he also says he should treasure this second chance). Which leads to MC's panic attack because the abuse from his ubringing is giving him an identity crisis. Because he spent his life to be the perfect sacrifice and its what protects his family. If he's not then who would protect them?
That how i interpreted it anyway ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I really hope that while running away he will have some kind of inner monologue to help us understand what's going on in his head :-D
I was confused as well to what Mugo meant when he said stop so thank you for this explanation!
Ok, i have 2 questions 1. When did SM promised him eternal peace (i guess its death), wasnt he the one who gave him his blood so others wouldnt kill him? 2. When SM said you should stop i guess he meant having feelings, so which one of two freaked him out into running away? This promise of eternal peace which i guess was somehow broken but as i dont remember the details i cannot understand the issue or the request to stop having feelings?
