Mm. I like stories like the Exorcist, so I found myself nodding along with this one shot. I wonder if in the end, the priest gave it one last shot to resist, or to place himself entirely in God's hand. Does not appear to have worked, if that's the case.
The central problem with the story is the dumbass senior priest. For heaven's sake, you got the freshly printed priest with altered memories and an anger problem, and you let this charming demon get its hooks in him.... Father Merrin he is NOT. I suppose it's this thrown in desire to co-exist with demons - which isn't really supposed to be a thing, generally speaking, for Christianity, as the lines are very clearly drawn in the sand. That part of the story feels ill conceived at best.
Otherwise, there's all the makings of a good read here, and Ilya's facial expressions are quite beautiful to see.

LMAO
So wait... he spends his life blaming demons for the death of his parents, learns that he doesn't really have any reason to blame them anymore, then finds out that not only was a demon responsible for the death of his parents, but possessed him to do so, and so he... let a demon possess him again, after murdering people and betraying him? I get his mind was extra fragile, but for someone who had been so angry for so long to immediately go to sadness instead of reverting to rage after such a confirmation of his hatred just felt so bizarre to me.

This is why Frieren Zoltraak demons on sight. Also quite disappointed in myself I didn't notice the twist that he was the possessed one that killed his family. Such an obvious twist and I missed it. Fun one shot read. Some great one-liners too.
So if Darkness is proof of the absence of Light, Loneliness is proof of the absence of love, demons are the same for Angels then Humans are the proof of the absence of God?
Still feel weird that he just let her possess him? Like I thought he was going to go mad killing her and himself but nah just give up like Bumgumi and let the demon take over? To be fair to at least Bumgumi woke up last minute.
goes kinda hard ngl.
