Sid of Dear Door - is he really betraying Cain?I decided to make a few posts on Dear Door, on Sid especially. This is the third. The first, which explains who and what Sid actually is, can be found here; the second about his (non-existent) deal with Satan, here.In this I will just sort out the things that make him seem like he is betraying Cain. In another post I will explain what I think he truly is doing. If I put both into the same post, it would become faaar to long =DNow, first of all: I can’t read Korean, but use several translation tools for the chapters which are not yet available in English. Thus, part of this is interpretation, yet with the knowledge of what happens until the most recent Korean chapters. I will leave links to support the author at the end.SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!!1.) He tells Cain, when he attacks him, that Satan made him an offer which he could not refuse (riches, power, standing, for Cain’s life).Cain asks him “WHY?” and the parasites - as you see above - are closely watching Sid. The fact is, the reasons he tells Cain are not what Satan actually promised him. Satan told him, he would get “the one thing” he wanted if he gave Satan everything else for it. But the “one thing” Sid wants is Cain to live safely and with that, Sid will not trust Satan (”Take it all, but I will not trust you with the safety of the King”). What he answers Cain instead of the truth, are more likely the reasons he told the parasitic demons inside him, who would otherwise stop him from his plans if they did not see a gain for themselves.2.) We have him say that he does not want to die a “meaningless death” in a war that Cain cannot win.Sid is sure that Cain can not win against Satan. First of all, he thinks Cain is too “good hearted” for that - if you could use this phrase with a demon. Secondly Cain is a part of Satan and Satan is the only one who could suck Cain up - and as long as normal laws rule not the other way around. Yet all that Sid says in the end, is that he does not want to die in that futile war. However, this does not mean that he will not die for Cain. And in fact, in chapter 43 he says “I’ve imagined (…) what it would be like to die by your side. But (…) I couldn’t allow that to happen to you”, meaning he will not let Cain die.3.) The demons inside him frequently talk about how they want to bring down the King (Cain).Of course they do. Sid had to make them believe that what he was planning was because he wanted more power, more safety for himself. They do not care if Sid loves somebody, cares for somebody or wants to protect somebody. All those parasites care about is staying alive themselves, and whenever Sid does something that seems threatening to his own well-fare and thereby theirs, they try to interfere.It’s important to note at this moment, that the only ones, who ever phrase something like “let’s kill/end the King” are those parasites. Never Sid.4.) Sid steals the compass for “Sneaky-snaky-demon-boy” to find and kill Aaron, the only one he presumes could easily heal Cain from the wound he receives in chapter 1 (the shard). He sends the other medic, who tried to heal Cain and told him about Aaron, into the front line of the next battle where he is missing in action.He needed Cain hurt by that shard because it slowly drained his Mana and kept him from recuperating easily. I will come back to this in the post about what I think he actually is doing, but at this moment just let me mention that Sid says at some other point, that as long as Cain’s Mana is low, he could hide Cain in the human realm and Satan would never find him.Also, though Sid gave the compass to the other demon to get rid of Aaron and tried to kill him in the moment, Aaron was telling Cain about the compass, Sid later on never pulls through with killing Aaron, even if he could have done so easily. The reason is that at that point, Aaron being dead or alive is not important for Cain’s safety anymore.5.) He steals other weapons from Cain’s territory to weaken him.Yes, he definitely is trying to weaken Cain’s forces for the sole purpose of stopping the war in which Cain will ultimately die if he keeps going. Without weapons and men, Cain will have to retreat for now and will not be able to oppose Satan and his forces in hell. He also had to make Satan think he was indeed working for him.6.) He seems to be at odds with all of Cain other generals and subordinates.Sid is not easy to deal with, yes. There are moments in which he is an arrogant bastard and we would probably need a long psychology session to find out why. Jealousy? Fear? Mocking? The need to hide the parasites? Who knows? In the end, Sid has to be as secretive towards those who serve Cain as he has to be towards Cain himself and towards the demons inside him. That means, he couldn’t be a team player, even if he wanted to.7.) He allowed demons into the human realm and had them attack Cain.He did so because he needed to weaken Cain, and probably to keep him occupied. But some of those were in fact sent by Satan, not by Sid.8.) He fights with and almost kills both Cain and Ben.And yet, he never does kill any of them, even when he has the chance. There are moments where he could have killed Joon, Cain, Aaron, Jin, Ben, Gayle with the flick of a finger, but he didn’t. He always fled the scene and the parasites inside him reprimand him because of it.In fact, in chapter 70 he leaves Ben alive and tells him to stay by Cain’s said. It makes Ben wonder, why a traitor would ask that of him.9.) He teams up with Jude, which up till then we don’t know.Yes … but Jude is not with Satan. Jude is with the angels who in the end happen to safe and help Cain as well.10.) He teams up with Metatron …He does, at a moment when he thinks he lost everything and won’t be able to safe Cain anymore. Furthermore, it’s not like he comes with Metatron fully of his own volition. Metatron keeps him locked in several times and meddles with his mind and feelings. He also switched off the demons inside Sid and that honestly must have felt like suddenly finding Paradise.In the end, when Sid has to decide between Cain and Metatron, he saves Cain from the other.Tl;dr: Sid is turncoat in many ways. He makes everyone think he works for Satan: To make the parasites work along, to make Satan halt the war and wait for Sid to deliver Cain. He also weakens Cain’s forces so he can not attack Satan in that war he can’t win. But if he had truly turned on Cain, he could have killed him several times. He never did.Please support the author, Pluto, by buying the manhwa (18+ contents!!!!): Bomtoon (Korean), Tappytoon (English), Tapas (English), Delitoon (German) for more see the author’s twitter! -- source link
