Murdering an man who [[FantasticRacism leads the purge of the persecuted Twilights]]- those who have enhanced abilities, handicaps and shortened lifespans thanks to the FantasticDrug Celebre. Glaziev is seen having Twilights butchered, tortured and killed with his attacks not sparing innocent family, enabling mass slaughter civilians or [[WouldHurtAChild even children]]. One Twilight is blackmailed into attacking one of Twilights, the only safe havens for the Twilights by Glaziev holding his wife and [[spoiler: taunting Delico about how he raped Erica for years]] has thrown daughter hostage. When the man is dying, Glaziev cheerfully informs him far past any sympathy. that he had already killed the two by chopping their limbs off and throwing them away. Possibly Glaziev's worst act is keeping the Twilight Erika as his personal hitwoman, having conditioned her with years of mental and sexual abuse. When he reveals this to Erika's long-lost brother Delico, Glaziev says it gave him a genuine thrill to rape her every evening, knowing she had the face of the brother who always greeted Glaziev so politely.
