Nope's Peak Day 20 - Ulaz

[truthstranger]

Can we talk for a moment...? I'd like you to be honest with me.

You propose a plea bargain, then? The murderer who does not confess is the one who is executed, while the rest go free?

[truthstranger]

Something like that. Picking someone arbitrarily would be easier, but... I want to know the truth of what happened.

[insurgeont]

[ Well, Ulaz can respect that. ]

...I killed Illyasviel von Einzbern. It was not personally motivated. She merely had the misfortune of being the first person I encountered that night. I could not allow the threat made against me to be carried out. It would have endangered the entire universe.

I presume you have already spoken with Mae and Minako. I do not know who they killed, but I know that Seto Kaiba killed Hiyori Tomoe. I doubt he will confess to you. He wishes for us to band together and cast our votes for Ein to protect ourselves.

[ He respects it a lot more than he respects Seto fucking Kaiba, in fact. ]

[truthstranger]

Ah...

[ Something about that seems to surprise him, but he frowns and composes himself again. ]

...I see. Akechi-kun suspected there would be some sort of plan like that going on...

[insurgeont]

It is a reasonable thought. Discounting Will Graham, there are four of us and four of you, and we have all already proven ourselves willing to sacrifice innocents. If we are united while you are not, it would be simple to swing the vote however we like. That said, Kaiba wished for the insurance of a fifth vote, and so if you speak to him, he will likely attempt to convince you of Ein's guilt.

[truthstranger]

...Mm. We'll see about that.

And I do believe we'll be united, at least.
