It was true that Fourth always had a certain adrenaline rush, a certain longing that made him want to go out, explore the world and do different things.
It was also true that soon after he grew tired of it, he would stay at home and have nothing to do. He was good at using people, he was clever but he knew that the source of his spontaneity was because he lacked that certain something in his life.
The immortal world was huge and had lots to offer, the same went for the mortal world. However, soon they also ran out of things to keep Fourth's interest.
When he came back from being a fisherman, he was on time to witness the K family's murder. He didn't feel anything and he didn't care. It wasn't until he met Min, the Ghost King, that he felt the spark he was missing.
The intense pleasure and joy in his life that none of the activities he did in his life could give him. Min gave him powers just like he gave to the other children of the families who joined his private army.
