Mark 5:13
He gave them permission, and the impure spirits came out and went into the pigs. The herd, about two thousand in number, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.

Why he give the evils permission? there maybe 2 reasons. 1 Jesus have mercy even on evils, they beg him again and again, they afraid him, they fell on his knees when saw him. 2. These evils let the man hurt himself, Jesus love us, although that man do not have faith on him, he still save him first, even permit the evils requirement. God always like that, when we are still sin, Jesus has died for us.

But he still worried about us, someday, those who receive but not understand might turn to him, understand the words and be forgiven. Another reason he use parable is to make sure the accuracy of his words, and wont change a lot during spread.
