Well, I personally interpreted Ilias's character as a very, very childish one. The monster psychology could be interpreted, even if it's very ambiguous, as simply being straightforward with their instincts. Since they are very, very different from humans, most of them, the most "basic" ones, at least, simply do not understand that they may be hurting humans. They don't even pose themselves the question. Ever noticed how many monsters, when you break out of their binds, ask you why you did it? They simply cannot understand why those strange humans would refuse the ultimate pleasure and blah blah.

Ilias, on the other hand? When Micaela gave me her little exposition, I immediately thought that Ilias was like a kid who finds out the neighbors' child has a cooler toy. She wants it, and when she is denied it she throws a fit. Ilias is exactly the same: either things go the way she wants them to, or she just destroys everything. That's why she's jealous of Alice I: the Dark God manages to do with ease what for her was incredibly difficult. At some point, when she realized that she wasn't perfect and everything she did wasn't automatically a success, she probably decided to do the equivalent of toppling over the table and go sulking in her room. She wanted Alice out of her life forever, and she managed to.

In this regard, Eden is just like her: it's gratingly obvious that Eden has an inferiority complex the size of Jupiter towards Micaela and Lucifina, the same way Ilias has an inferiority complex towards Alice the First.
