He's used to seeing visions of the past. But visions of the future are new.

He sees all of the paths his cousin could have taken - his path, God's path, paths proposed by Atsuro and Yuzu and Kaido and a thousand other people he did or could have met.

He sees assaults on heaven, with him planning the attacks. Assaults on the demon world, with him chained and tortured. He sees cities falling and new ones rising - he sees himself being sealed into sleep, waking in a boy who faces his own decision about humanity's path.

He sees worlds that could have been, had he broken the curse - himself happy and content. He sees world where he didn't kill Abel, and where they lived peacefully.

He sees worlds of infinite torture, and ones of infinite pleasure. Worlds with his brother at his throat, fighting him in hatred. He sees himself reincarnated again and again, each time losing a little more sanity and patience, until every incarnation leaves him in constant and intense madness and pain.

It's these last visions that crush him most of all, leaving him with a sick feeling in his stomach. As the visions release him, he falls, doing his best to not lose either his composure or his lunch.
