Black Suit, Maestro, Golconde: (speechless) ...
Pseudos: You heard me right. You will listen to me and obey my every instruction as leader.
Maestro: And you believe Gematria and its current members will survive under your leadership?
Pseudos: Correct. Unlike your former compatriot, my motivations are beyond revenge and research. I desire survival. Thankfully, I have deemed Gematria fit to survive to the next stage.
Golconde: How are you so confident the Chroma won't defeat you too?
Pseudos: That is for me to solely know. I have been biding my limited time manipulating events to my will. The Chroma is another piece to a long-winded puzzlement, and I am confident in my means to outwit it. Truth be told, it was me who accelerated the timetable towards the Chroma's arrival. Beatrice just so happened to be a pawn on my board.
Golconde: I see, so that's why you wanted her to complete the ritual. You had us deliver the key object that would be her success and her downfall.
Maestro: It appears we traded one madwoman for another madman.
Pseudos: *chuckle* I have always been this way. It is what makes me "me."
Maestro: Black Suit. You don't seem a bit least surprised. Did you know about this from the very beginning?
Black Suit: ... I only knew about his prophecies to an extent. Had I know his true intentions earlier, I would have revealed it. Once I confronted him about Beatrice's last act, he confessed his plan of becoming Gematria's leader to me. What I am trying to understand now is why.
Pseudos: ...
Black Suit: You handed me the complete records of Kivotos's mysteries, you convinced everyone in this room to play a role, and most of all, you changed the course of story using Schale's Sensei as your conduit. Their actions would alter the lives of anyone they encountered, and you used it to your advantage by placing pawns to defeat in their path. No one or anyone in this room could have come up with such an elaborate scheme if not for years and years of preplanning. Right now, it is as though you are a mystery yourself. Unknown, unpredictable, and unimaginable in every way, shape, and form. And now here you are, requesting our surrender as though we are at your mercy. I ask again, who, or what, are you in this story, Pseudos?
