Death is a meaningless word to him. Koro is death. He cannot be killed. Only sent back to hell where he will recover, and walk the earth once more.
Exorcism, however, hits harder. It's... humiliating. Koro has suffered countless banishments and exorcisms, each just as painful as the last. But usually he lasts at the very least a month before the humans discover his true form and send him back.
To be found and exorcised on the same day as he set foot on the Earth...truly it is humiliating. He is tired. He wants to love and hold and live so badly. To walk among humans, to learn from them, watch them grow, watch them evolve...yet to be turned away due to his destiny. To be hated and killed over and over again. He never asked for this.
Why is he forced to live this fate worse than death?
"MY INTENTIONS..." There is a defeated tone in his words. As if he believes that his he answers simply won't matter in the long run.
"I SIMPLY TRAVEL. TO ESCAPE THE HORRORS AND REPULSIVE NIGHTMARES OF HELL, AND WALK IN THE WARM EMBRACE OF EARTH. TO BEHOLD THE BEAUTY OF THE WORLD. AND TO FEAST UPON THE SWEET FLESH OF BEAUTIFUL YOUNG VIRGINS SUCH AS THYSELF."

Koro probably should word his lust better.
