"The Herrscher of Erosion possesses the ability to delete us directly, but it seems to prefer slowly eroding us and turning you and me into parts of itself... Kevin, you are the sharpest blade among us. I need you to die immediately."
"What I mean is, I must delete you with my own hands... Before the performance begins, I will surrender to it and take the opportunity to confirm Elysia's current condition."
(It really is a surrender. It's just that the performance... already began long ago.)
(The answer was actually decided long ago, but... Kevin, you refuse to believe it, don't you?)
"...I understand. I'll give you an answer. But there's one more question... Who are you?"
"Who am I? Why are you suddenly bringing up the past? Is this the joy of victory?"
In this part, Vill-V directly relied on telling nothing but the truth, while revealing only the truth, to grasp Kevin's inner thoughts...
And made him fall into her trap.
But this also made them even more confused. He had noticed something was wrong with Vill-V, so why did he still agree to this plan?
"Stop hiding, Vill-V. I know you're there. Come out."
(Fine, Mobius... You're next.)
"..."
(As expected of you... You noticed the traces on me at a glance.)
"Looks familiar, doesn't it?"
"...The Herrscher of Erosion?... You think I did this?"
"Of course. Haven't you done similar experiments before? I didn't expect that... after I stopped you once, you still hadn't given up. We had quite a fight back then."
"Shut up first, Vill-V. Listen to me, this isn't..." But she did not continue.
(Yes. As someone who studied it extensively and even developed imitations... Mobius, you naturally know that I must be under some kind of surveillance right now.)
