Nightmare Fuel / Evil Food Eater Conchita

• Banica's early childhood in the first chapter is very unnerving: Her household is desperate to keep themselves alive by eating anything they could get their hands on and become morbidly obese as a result; Meguru bullies her daughter Banica and forces food down her throat just because she isn't sick, and the entire household staff succumb to Gula disease one by one. And to top it all off, in the final scene a rabid Meguru decides to eat the corpse of one of their servants, and Muzuri is driven to murder her in front of their young daughter.
  • This part of the novel also showcased the nightmare fuel that is the Gula disease: Its victims develope cravings for inedible and even dangerous things things like candle flames or broken mirrors. During the early stages of the curse, one of the Conchita estate's staff died after vomiting sewing scissors.
  • The lead up has Muzuri ignoring all the very evident signs of Gula disease, chief among them being the completely intact wineglass they find in the Baemu's stomach. No one can explain how it got there, and even the staff are creeped out.
• Most of the things that Banica eats are just nauseating, not necessarily scary, but her first meal after making her contract - which featured live bugs - is pretty far up there.
• Conchita herself, especially late in the novel. Her grotesque tastes, her powers as a Necromancer that she uses to decimate an army, her punishment of the undead soldiers by eating parts of them while they are conscious, and finally the fact that she simply refuses to die, thanks to a Healing Factor granted through her Deal with the Devil. In the novel, her cannibalism of Carlos, Arte and Pollo is nothing but Nightmare Fuel. Conchita is more of a monster than a human by the end of her arc.
  • There's a scene where she raises the undead soldiers to fight off the Beelzenian Army, and a horrified Carlos even recognizes some of the undead in the crowd as they literally tear the soldiers apart... all while Banica is on the ground dancing and laughing about how she's going to literally eat the whole world.
• Arte and Pollo are even worse than they were as Hansel and Gretel. Despite their ludicrously childish behavior, they kill Ron Grapple, one of the sole survivors of the Gula disease in the Conchita household, solely because he tried to get rid of the wineglass. From the way they act and talk about it, it seems almost like they were deliberately setting Conchita up to get possessed: they stole the wineglass back from ABC-IR, laughed at Conchita's breakdown during the engagement dinner, and got rid of anyone who tried to interfere with her contract.
  • Also worth noting is that before they kill him, Ron realizes that he has no memory of hiring the twins at all. It's a small detail, but it really shows just how eerie these two are.
  • Not to mention when Platonic first breaks into the mansion, it's implied that the two of them recently crucified Banica's latest cook.
• The demon of Gluttony—Conchita is never really able to perceive it as it speaks to her (offering her pig's blood to seal the contract) until the very end of the novel, when she realizes it's a red, fat pig-monster. The fact that it spends their final encounter yelling at her to eat her own baby doesn't make it any cuddlier.
