We have them back home, but... They're not that different from the other monsters that you'd encounter in the wild. And it seems like the demons here are different.
Yes...! As much as I hate the circumstances, it's fascinating to hear about other worlds. I wish I could visit every one of them, just to see for myself and learn.
The details are long and tedious, so I won't bore you with them.
But it was necessary to ensure the survival of many people, and so a system was created to send people back in time. I met one such person on their travels, and also had an opportunity to meet them in another era... though I admit, my memories of these events are hazy.
I guess I'm not exactly certain, but I would have liked to prevent a lot of damage to the land before it was too late. Maybe if I could have met and talked to the alchemists of the past, something could have changed.

Well, no -- better to say I've visited different times, not different worlds, on a few occasions.
