[It was a question that left him with a bitter aftertaste for days. He wasn't someone who could enjoy killing a human being, it just wasn't in his nature.
But he was the Game Master. He was the Sorcerer. In a way, he wasn't human. Words were his shield, as much as closed rooms were his weapons... so, he knew he wasn't doing his job right when he managed to hit himself with his shield, even going as far as opening a wound. It was like someone else wanted to show him just how human he could still be.
And now it was the time to choose. Just as he had chosen to be Human with Lion, as he had chosen to be Sorcerer with Maria.
What would be his choice now with Kaito?
He knew Kaito would be someone he could trust, as soon as they shared their opinions on magic. He never realized there would be a time where a friendly chat would become a tough decision.]
...you don't mind if we walk a bit? I don't think we'll get more wet than we are right now. Besides, isn't this weather just perfect for a murder mystery?
[Sorcerer or Human.]

... sure. [Kaito lifted a hand and jerked his thumb out toward the city]
As long as we avoid the piles of flopping Magikarp, that is. [He didn't want to risk another freak out]

[But he's heading in that direction, waiting for Battler to follow]

Battler feels like his stomach is full of ice cubes.]

The Truth he holds is far more important, and he knew that... but he still feels a little alone.
No matter..... Battler finally stops, not far from town at all. He leans on a tree, his mind once again focusing on his decision.]

He had his own fair share of secrets.
He stopped walking, glancing up at the sky and shielding his eyes from the rain as it continued to drop down on them, though not nearly as heavily thanks to the shelter of the forest trees]
So... [He said after a moment of silence] Is it all still a secret?
Reply
[Closes his eyes and faces up, letting the water fall on his face.]
Say, Kaito-san. Let's play a game. You can ask 3 questions... I promise I'll answer the truth, even if it's hidden. What do you say?
Reply
All right. I'm in. [He lapses into a thoughtful silence, trying to come up with a good first question... and he supposes there is no better place to start than with the conversation that left him confused]
Why did you ask me what I would think if you told me you were planning a murder?
Reply
[He says it without even looking at Kaito. Battler's voice sounds emotionless, hollow.
It wouldn't be much of a game if he showed his feelings on the matter, right?]
Reply
Why? Don't skimp on this answer. Don't twist the truth with technicalities. I wanna know why.
Reply
[He did warn him the truth would be hidden in his answers... he just needs to play as fair as the rules they agreed upon.]
I'll pretend that wasn't your second question.
Reply
... fine.
[He pauses to lapse into another thoughtful silence as he tries to think of another good question. Something that actually gets him somewhere]
Who started this 'game?'
Reply
[Opens his eyes and looks at Kaito, his face not showing any emotion. He remembered his old man always having the same smug smile, whether his plans were going good or bad. Kyrie-san was also an expert.]
Reply
And you're... on the witch side. Or acting as someone on the witch side. [It wasn't a question; he didn't really need to ask at this point]
