ITEM THREE - [locked to DATS]

Well, it would appear I played my hand to you all, so there is little point pussyfooting around it.

Hi!

As if we didn't have enough chaos.

Xellos.

To what do we owe your sudden assistance?

SURELY, Miss Lina has told you folks SOME things about me, to know better than to ask me a question like that.

...

At least, that is what I would normally say.

As it is, this long standing charade with Mr. Ravemon has reached about as far as I can push it. He is still unaware of my motivations, it would seem, as there were no survivors of the gun base.

You do realize who it was that informed you all of the movement upon the Hinata Inn, I hope.

Is that right? Well, you have my thanks!

However, as we didn't ask for that assistance specifically from you, I'm afraid I won't be tricked into owing you a debt.

Of course, I don't believe for a moment that you're playing this that way, but I would never say that, even if you ripped my mouth off.

Shall I assume you want to try your hand at playing a charade with us instead?

Think whatever you'd like!

Any of that is your own thinking, and I sincerely doubt anything that'd come out of my mouth would convince you otherwise, one way or another.

Still, one must consider that I am, indeed, holding myself in quite a perilous position, and I doubt you'd deny the strategic advantage of someone who has Ravemon's ear.

Absolutely not. The value of your position is quite enviable!

That does, however, raise the question... What do you want, Xellos?

A lot of what you do, believe me or not!

I don't suppose you're willing to give me a more concrete answer than that?

digitalhimitsu September 25 2010, 05:07:32 UTC
...yes, I suppose we don't really have the time to play a game of cat and mouse, do we? Alas.

I guess you could say it's force of habit.

More to the point, though...

If things continue at their current pace, the multiverse will suffer. As in, cease to exist.

More to the point, as will myw orld.

We Mazoku are a... territorial lot. If our world is to be destroyed, it shall be by our hands.

As such, elimination of certain Demon Kings is a priority.

And the only way to get there? Is to work up the ladder.

Starting with Ravemon.

And you think we're strong enough to take on the demon kings? I appreciate the vote of confidence.

Though, aren't you in a better position than we are to start working your way up the ladder? Surely, he must know things that you're privy to.

Ah, no. You are not. In fact, by my assessment, there are a few, select things in this world right now that could destroy a Demon King. Some, though, may cause the annihilation of all life as we know it, and some may not even function thanks to Yggdrasil ( ... )

Hrn... You don't mince words, do you?

Don't think for a moment that I'm taking your involvement in the gun incident at your word.

So what sort of things do you KNOW that you plan to share with us?

Reply

digitalhimitsu September 25 2010, 05:34:30 UTC
I don't, but I figured it was at least worth things to mention it.

For the immediate, though?

Battle formations.

Troop movements.

Where Ravemon will be.

Where the Tag will be.

Is that good enough to consider, Mr. Ivan?

xtrnlmonologue September 25 2010, 05:39:52 UTC
...

I would say so, yes. I don't suppose you're going to share those freely?

Reply

digitalhimitsu September 25 2010, 06:00:52 UTC
That all depends.

Will you use the information?

Reply

xtrnlmonologue September 25 2010, 06:04:58 UTC
I will make the same quality of use of the information... as your quality of information provided.

Reply

digitalhimitsu September 25 2010, 06:12:20 UTC
If there's one thing you will find out about me, Mr. Ivan...

I settle for nothing less than my work to be of the highest quality.

The success of the coalition's forthcoming attack is all in my best interest. So long as you are victorious... that information is yours to use.
