The entire novel in one scene:

Villain: “Does‌ ‌it‌ ‌hurt‌ ‌when‌ ‌your‌ ‌head‌ ‌is‌ ‌smashed‌ ‌against‌ ‌the‌ ‌wall? [slam] Does it hurt? [slam] Does it hurt?”

Hero: “It hurts.”

Villain: “You‌ ‌foolish‌ ‌child,‌ ‌if‌ ‌it‌ ‌hurts‌, ‌why‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌you‌ ‌turn‌ ‌back?‌ ‌Did‌ ‌you‌ ‌think‌ ‌if‌ ‌you‌ ‌keep‌ ‌slamming,‌ ‌keep‌ ‌smashing,‌ ‌the‌ ‌wall‌ ‌will‌ ‌fall‌ ‌down‌ ‌on‌ ‌its‌ ‌own?‌ ‌Why‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌you‌ ‌change‌ ‌your‌ ‌own‌ ‌course‌ ‌of‌ ‌direction?”‌

Hero: “I won’t turn back.”

When I first read this story, the hero’s mannerisms and overall behavior reminded me a lot of the main character from Kamen Rider OOO. But OOO’s main character is void-themed, because he’s essentially a happiness pump--he no longer has any desires beyond helping other people achieve what they desire. I’m not sure how to explain what this book’s hero is, but he’s definitely not a void.
