Torture is a form of art, an aesthetic way to express emotions or desires, or without reason or purpose.
There are many kinds of torture, including psychological torture and physical torture.
They are both forms of torture, but which inflicts more pain?
Someone numb to physical pain might not feel as much agony as someone who can feel it, when your body is minced piece by piece at every level, prickled by sharp objects only to melt away, your flesh scraped off.
But there is also someone numb to emotional pain, though there’s a chance both conditions could apply here.
The question remains—what pain causes the most suffering?
Let’s say a human named Yuki, who cannot die, is bound to a bed with blades protruding from it. When Yuki lies on it, he gets stabbed, his organs slashed. The pain he feels is instantly greater than anything he’s ever experienced. Normally, he’d die, but since he cannot, his body regenerates, returning him to normal. Now, he’s forced into inhuman tortures: being drugged, minced, pierced, stabbed, sliced, burned alive, frozen alive, nerves shattered, muscles and tissues ripped apart, organs ruptured. By now, Yuki is numb to pain, his brain should’ve reached its limit—but his body regenerates, along with his nervous system and pain receptors. His mentality, however, doesn’t recover; only his body is immortal.
So Yuki is given a drug that ensures his mentality can’t break. He can feel pain but can’t escape it.
Since he’s numb to pain now, he’s released and allowed to live freely. He’d been trapped in that lab, experimented on for a time he can’t perceive. He slowly recovers (realistically, surviving that torture is nearly impossible—but since Yuki can’t break and his recovery is sped up by the experiment).
He makes friends, finds a lover, marries them.
But suddenly, Yuki is captured again—along with his lover. He’s forced to watch his loved one tortured, and his family (fabricated memories, of course, it’s an experiment) suffers too. Seeing them break before his eyes shatters Yuki completely.
He’s continuously shown kindness while his loved ones suffer in front of him. Given hope, only for it to be ripped away.
After this, Yuki faces another experiment.
Put Yuki in a white room. His sanity slowly deteriorates. Or make him kill his own children, commit murder, the guilt consumes him.
Or give Yuki a perfect life, only for him to ruin it himself.
Or force him into a game: choose one to save and one to kill. No matter who Yuki picks, the saved one dies, the other becomes a drug addict and later kills themselves. Yuki plays again, this time, he can sacrifice himself to free the others. But he’s gaslit into choosing wrong, causing them to kill each other. He’s offered a choice: kill himself to let them live. But he’s immortal, they try to kill him, fail, and he’s forced to kill them himself.
Yuki could loop parts of his life, finding escape routes only to realize there’s no way out.
I do not know what I am saying anymore. These are rookie experiments, by the way. They are generic. They do not capture the feeling of watching someone suffer, crumble before your eyes (okay, I should stop this is getting to me-nya.)
So, what is the worst pain you can inflict on someone?
