Sid of Dear Door - the deal with Satan he never struckI decided to make a few posts on Dear Door, on Sid especially. This is the second. The first, which explains who and what Sid actually is, can be found here.Now, 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!!!!!!In chapter 42 we see Sid remember one incident when he was much younger and Satan came to “visit him” in his mind. There is no exact time frame given to when this “meeting” happened, but I am pretty sure that it’s happening at the same time as what we see in chapter 34, where Cain comes home from a battle against the forces of Satan finding a distraught and crying Sid.Sid in chapter 34 was hurt himself, but much more than for himself, he feared for Cain and his troops, and blamed himself for not being able to help. Around that time I think Satan came to see him. He tells Sid, that he had felt him be so distressed, he could not pass him by. This sounds a lot to me like Sid was already fearing for Cain, and that Satan had been near: So there had been a battle, there had been a peril and Sid had been scared and very upset.To be able to talk to him, Satan “switches off” the parasitic demons, then he shows Sid what will happen to Cain if he continues fighting against Satan: he will die.At that point, Sid already fears that Cain can’t win against Satan. The pictures shown to Sid, however, are probably more for effect, because actually Satan will simply be able to suck Cain up. Higher demons feast on same and lower class demons. There are some demons of the same statute as Cain, but he is not of the same statute as Satan. In chapter 21, Cain admits to Joon, that there is only one who can suck him up. That one is Satan.Cain, in fact, happens to be a part of Satan. At some point, they split and there is a chapter, in which Satan claims that when Cain “broke loose” from him, he took with him anything kind and bright in Satan.His offer is, that if Sid gave him “anything else”, then Satan will give Sid that one and only thing “he wants”. Sid tells Satan, that he accepts that bargain and Satan leaves. Then Sid says - while the parasites are still out cold - “that Satan may take anything from him, but that he will not trust Satan with the safety of his king.”Or to put it shortly: Satan can have it all, but not Cain.To Cain, however, Sid later claims that he indeed struck that deal with Satan - but not because he actually did. Only because the demons inside him are listening. Sid formed a plan, one to safe Cain from Satan for good, but this thing is dangerous. It could lead to his own death if he was found out by either side. So to make the parasites play along he had to give them an explanation. Claiming that he was planning to deliver Cain to Satan, to gain a new standing and safety by that, was probably the best way to make them play along.With all the things Sid keeps on saying and doing, it is easy to believe, he was actually working with Satan or trying to kill Cain. And this is easily contradicted: If Sid had wanted Cain dead, he could just have left him to die in chapter 3. There were several moments for Sid to kill either Cain, Joon, Aaron, Ben, Gayle, Jin, yet he never did. He came close, but he always fled the scene, he never pulled through. He could have killed but never did.Tl;dr: Satan offers Sid to take everything Sid does not want but to give him the one thing he wishes for instead. Sid pretends to accept it, but once Satan is gone he says: “You can have anything, but I will not trust you with the safety of the king (Cain).Now the question obviously is, what indeed is his plan, but that has to get into a new post ;)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
