He refuses to admit the horror of a monster that he had created with his own bare hands when engulfed in guilt, remorse and shame but he still didn't confessed to his hideous creations even if the ramifications of the monster grew stronger and kill more people.

Later on, he changed drastically, from a youth fascinated by the benefits of science in this world of technology into a guilty conscious and confused man determined to destroy the fruits of his labour that he had created. He hid himself in his own thoughts and cut off with the outside world, with no apparent connection. Victor is a prisoner of his own making. He is chained to his creation.
