Please don't look so down on yourself. Your heart is kind if that is what you are thinking of. It isn't something anyone should be used to.

It is because I'm the Insect Pillar that I could keep any fear away. In my world, there are demons that attack people at night, and I am one of a number who fight to slay them to keep people safe.
It is a little dangerous. They can be unfairly strong. Most demons have no care but for themselves and do whatever they can to be more powerful. They're hateful and evil and think nothing of killing.
And... w-wow, we're about the same age, aren't we? I mean, I've fought monsters before, but I don't know if they're anywhere near as dangerous as what you're describing. That's a lot of risk and responsibility to shoulder... isn't it?
Demons are abhorrent and reprehensible. If I could remove all of them at once, I would.
It's not something I do alone. I'm part of a large organization, and there are a number who are much stronger than I am. It is a risk I am more than willing to take and a responsibility I don't hesitate to shoulder. It's important to me to be able to protect however many I can.
[ shinobu's aware that she grew up too fast, too son. still, she smiles. ]
It's all right. I am sure you will grow up into someone you want to be. It's fine if you take your time, as long as you are happy with where you're going.

[ demons avoid the sunlight. ]
As for those people, they weren't actively attacking us, so I was more worried about who they were meant to be.

Say, what sort of work does an "Insect Pillar" do?
