As I see it (up until Vol. 2 Chapter 4), his ability is more like awakening the concience of the Monsters around him. It is described as "Special" "Rare" or "High" Monsters, but in essence their are Monsters with enough magic in themselves to have a really low fleeting concience. So he magnifies their Feelings and their view of the world and "gives their World color", what makes them treasure him like the most precious thing they have.

Another thing is the connection. He feels what they feel and they feel what he feels. Giving him displeasure is like giving themselves displeasure.

The third thing is: His heart cries out to the monsters and leads them to him. As he was broken he wanted help, someone to ease his pain, help him and not letting him alone. Lily came to this call and is mending his wounds as she tries to heal him from the pain of his broken heart. As he wanted to be protected and to protect the one who awnsered was Rose and she would rather turned into ash as letting any harm come to him. Deep in his heart he felt weak and cried out for power and... well, that was a slight hicup, but power has awnsered him...
