haven’t read the novel he’s a demi-god/god-like entity who very likely has thousands of years of history with the mc either through reincarnations or her also having some sort of reality breaking ability of her own that’s prolonged/responsible for a very long life. they have a history, and for him to care this much i doubt it’s just one normal human lifespan.
she either is responsible for him being here, his ability to use his powers freely to manipulate reality/her reality, or is the only one that has some kind of resistance to his powers or can kill or stop him.
regardless he knows she’s powerful enough to stop him now, or she stopped him from achieving something in the past. this causes a grudge or an insecurity so deep, a frustration so large that by the time he gets the opportunity to enact his revenge or evilness- this resentment has turned into a genuine lust for the one he can never truly defeat, and the only circumstance he can bring her down is by erasing her memories completely and forcing her to love him every single day.. which isn’t a true loss- considering she isn’t herself in those moments, which causes the ml to have some sort of breakdown which the fl will make the stupid choice of forgiving him and happily ever after, give or take some suffering for him that has little to no consequence on him compared to what he puts mc through.
