When he attempts to befriend the blind De Lacey, Felix darts forward and tears him with supernatural force from his father. He was then again faced with the reality that he was an outsider and did not belong. The true moment of climax is when he rescues a young girl from drowning in a swiftly flowing river; he is not thanked with kind words instead with bullets. Thus, the reward of his benevolence is miserable pain of a wound which shattered the flesh and soul. It comes as no surprise, then, when the creature comes to the conclusion that there was none among the myriads of men that existed who would pity or assist him. He swears revenge on all mankind. "Suddenly as I gazed on him, an idea seized me that this little creature was unprejudiced and had lived too short a time to have imbibed a horror of deformity (p.135)." He felt that he could take this child and educate him in an understanding way so that he would have a companion. He was wrong the child was very upset and scared. It was in fact William, Victor's youngest brother that the monster had seized for companionship. William revealed who his father was; this enraged the monster so much that he killed William. I gazed on my victim, and my heart swelled with exultation and hellish triumph; clapping my hands, I exclaimed, "I too can create desolation; my enemy is not invulnerable; this death will carry despair to him, and a thousand other miseries shall torment and destroy him."(p.136) after the monster killed William and framed Justine Moritz for it, his revenge had just begun. He chased after Victor for many months trying to gain his attention and acknowledgement of existence. During this time I feel that the monster had time to reflect on his crimes that had been committed. This is where he turns into a rational monster; that has remorse for his wrong doings. He even though it brought anguish to his creator, felt accountable for his crimes.
