Or am I the only one who's in the dark about it? D: It sounds like another hint that the demons are the six kin or direct derivatives of them. Since we haven't had explanations of demons and how they came to be, that would make sense. The idea that the demons would want to enslave humanity rather than let them be free to do with the world as they please sounds an awful lot like the prologue's genesis story imo.

Because it's finally making sense why she ate herself and not the baby. I also realize that she probably didn't any more people to be hurt by her hunger, since by that time she had already eaten Carlos, Arte and Pollo. No, as I've said in the EFEC thread, Banica's reasoning for not eating her child is a "idk" and then she gets mad at the demon as it keeps encouraging her to do just that. When she realizes she's something else she can eat, she goes full throttle in her curiosity of what she tastes like.

You can infer she unknowingly loved her (sleeping) child due to the Carlos connection but Banica herself seems oblivious to it. She definitely doesn't seem regretful of eating everyone else when I read it (especially Carlos; she loved the taste of lover).

Also, looks like Banica also isn't benefitting from this hell thing. Sati liked having his brainwashing power and Banica liked being able to aim for the world as her food. Neither of them seem to have such look. Alas, poor villains.......
