BGM: Tomorrow

Sorry to keep you.

You did NOT. Your return was sooner than I ANTICIPATED.

Kill him, Dlanor A. Knooooooooooooooxxxxxxxxx!

Lady Erika's reasoning has solved the 5th GAME. No new facts exist which overturn the truth created by this reasoning!
It's possible to show a different truth by using a different interpretation! When multiple truths exist in parallel, the authenticity of both is questioned!

Bern's reasoning is perfect. You won't be able to over turn it easily... but still, if you can present a theory on par with Ben's, the fight will come down to a verdict. That means it's possible that either one of the truths will be defeated and denied!

This plot twist is truly laughable! I'd expect nothing less from a plot twist by a demon!

Then let me ASK! What is this theory with someone other than Natsuhi as the CULPRIT?!


Knox's 8th. It is forbidden for the case to be resolved with clues that are not presented! Was there ever any foreshadowing showing that you might be the baby from 19 years ago?!
The red truth from the 4th game that I am not the son of my mother Asumu. The feeling that dad was hiding something in both the first game and this game. In particular, in this game, it was made clear that there were some special circumstances having to do with my birth.

A good START. Let us hear your theory with Battler as the culprit!

Yeah, I'll let you hear it. I'll prove that this explanation also works... and that you can't be certain Natsuhi is the culprit!
BGM: Final Answer
It's only possible for the crime to have taken place between midnight and 1:00! During that one hour, you were in the dining hall of the mansion! Therefore, it was impossible for you to commit the crime!
It has not been specified that the time of death was between midnight and 1:00. Therefore, it's possible that the crime didn't occur in that time frame!
There's a restriction on any murders in the cousins' room!
From 1:00 AM until the discovery of the crime, it was impossible for the crime to occur in the cousins' room! Dlanor, now!
Knox's 8th. If the crime actually was carried out in the cousins' room, clues must have been SHOWN. Because clues were not given to the detective, Lady Erika, who was on watch for any abnormalities inside that room until morning, such a crime is IMPOSSIBLE!
By the time of the crime's discovery, you mean the point at which I let out a scream and everyone gathered there. Even if it was impossible to kill them before that point, it was possible to kill them afterwards!
The death of the four in the cousins' room has been proclaimed with the red truth! Are you trying to use the Illusion of the Witch?! Are you trying to resurrect George and the others using the concept of magic even though they were dead at the time?!

I see, since you believe they were dead by that point, it probably looks as though the dead have been brought back to life to you! So this might look like magic in your eyes. In that case, I won't be the one to take the next shot at you!

Fool! How often do I have to say it?
The deaths of the four people in the cousins' room have been proclaimed with the red truth! Furthermore, those corpses were witnessed by a large number of people! Furthermore, it's already been proclaimed in red that no examination of these corpses would lead to a mistaken result! Take that, dead people!
BGM: Dreamend Discharger

Y.. You, Ronove! How did you get here?! Well, who cares, this all works out nicely. Now there's no need to go looking for you. I'll capture you here and deny your existence, too!

I'll leave it to you. Teach her that you can't control everything with a single, arrogant truth.

Yes, your majesty. Well, then, allow me to be your opponent for a bit. What do you say, miss?

When this court was opened, Lady Lambdadelta made a proclamation. She said this was a midnight answer session! The death proclamation was made at midnight on the second day - in other words, at the end of the game. That does not deny the possibility that the murder occurred after the morning of the second day, after the so-called 'discovery' of the crime!
Then you're saying... that the victims were alive at that time?! Even though their necks were sliced open?!
Did you see that yourself, Miss Detective? It may be true that all corpses would not lead to a mistaken examination, no matter who it was that checked to see whether they were alive... but it has never been said that there was a rule against calling something other than a corpse a corpse.
S... So at that point in time, no one was dead?! There weren't even wounds on their necks?! In that case, why did Battler scream?!


Lia!

Yes.

Shouldn't you rethink your reasoning? Kinzo doesn't exist. Therefore, the way for the bodies to disappear in your theory is a failure.
CORRECT. Unless someone other than Kinzo makes the corpses disappear, your theory FAILS.



You... lowly... paperweights...!
After George's death, his corpse was never moved!
After Jessica's death, her corpse was never moved!
After Maria's death, her corpse was never moved!
After Rosa's death, her corpse was never moved!
After Genji's death, his corpse was never moved!
After Krauss's death, his corpse was never moved!

AAAAaaaaaarrrrgggghhhhhh! So what?! Even without Kinzo, I can explain how... the corpses disa.... nngg, ggaaaaaaggghh! I, Furudo Erika... have to revise my theory?! Nnngggaaaaarrrrrggghhh! I do? The detective does?! Gaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrgghhhhh!


Looks like you toyed around with your plan too much in order to corner Natsuhi like that.

You played around too much with your reasoning. At this point, your master isn't the only one who can speak of Kinzo's death with the red truth.

This is what you get for playing around in the witches' darkness. Know that, Furudo Erika!



D-Dlanoooooooooorrrrr!
Knox's 2nd! It is forbidden for supernatural agencies to be employed as a detective technique! If you would show that Kinzo has died with the red truth, then I demand that you display proof of a human's truth which could be used to make that point!
Presentation of evidence. I'll present a corpse which could possibly be identified as Ushiromiya Kinzo's!
Can you prove that this corpse is Ushiromiya Kinzo's?! No matter how much it resembles him, unless you can prove that it is him, it is possible to claim that it was a substitute corpse from someone ELSE! Can you show that it was Kinzo's corpse with the truth of HUMANS?! In this case alone, and with the red truth specifically, no counterargument will be effective!
Ooh. Any counter with the red truth will be ineffective? I guess that works.

It may be true that the existence of third-party corpses has already been denied with the red. However, if saying that with the red is forbidden, Battler has nowhere to run to!

That's right...
In this closed-off Rokkenjima, there is no objective way to show that this corpse is grandfather's.
And that itself suggests the possibility that this corpse is a body double! This unidentifiable corpse cannot serve as proof of Kinzo's death!
Checkmate! My theory does not waver!

How are you gonna prove that the corpse was Kinzo's if the red truth is sealed? It's impossible. It can't be done!

With red or blue, right?

BGM: Justice

D... Dlanor?! Wh-What are you...

...A splendid gold TRUTH. EFFECTIVE.

G... Gold truth?!


Wh-What is that? Lambda, does this follow the rules?!

...Yes. Gold truth, effective. The gold truth... can only be used by the territory lord of this world... no, only by the Game Master himself!

What... did you say?

...Gold TRUTH. A divine truth woven in a different fashion than the red TRUTH. Its strength is on par with the red TRUTH. It may sometimes be INFERIOR. But it is sometimes SUPERIOR!

That glitter... is proof that Battler truly understands Beato.

I've shown it. I've shown that the corpse is grandfather's.

YES. Gold truth ACCEPTED. Unless Lady Erika's theory undergoes some revision, it will be DESTROYED!

Wh... What the... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrggghhhh!


I see. It's like 'And Then There Were No Ackroyds'. Just when did this... ahahahahahahahahahahahahaa! What a crazy string of great works!

Battler, it would be excessively unrefined to say any more. Even without saying another word, you've fully made your truth about the corpses' disappearance understood! I see, that thing you're thinking of doesn't conflict with any of the red in this trial so far! Your truth based around the revenge of the man from 19 years ago has been completely understood and processed! I proclaim that your truth has now been established!

Wh... Why is that, great Lady Lambdadelta?! He still hasn't explained everything! I still have many ways to argue back, like Hideyoshi's closed room, the seal on Natsuhi's personal room and the button in the closet!

So, you still intend to argue back against Battler?

Ggah... gwwaagghgghggghhh!




Furthermore, because we have raised doubts about the time of death for all who have died so far, the alibis for everyone besides Natsuhi go back to square one! If you try to argue that the crime was impossible for everyone except Natsuhi, it won't work!
However, in the cousins' room, you witnessed corpses which were impossible to MISIDENTIFY! Are you trying to say that was a FALSEHOOD?! Knox's 7th. It is forbidden for the detective to be the CULPRIT! The detective is obligated to have an objective point of VIEW. Your theory violates this OBLIGATION!
Furudo Erika is the detective in this game, not me! And by Knox's 9th, it is permitted for observers to let their own conclusions and interpretations be heard!
Knox's 8th, it is forbidden for the case to be resolved with clues that are not PRESENTED! Until now, you have been the DETECTIVE! Was it ever shown that you were not the detective this time, andt hat you were an observer with a subjective VIEWPOINT?! Unless it was, you do not have the right to falsify your point of VIEW!
In this game! When I figured out the device of the epitaph's riddle, I witnessed grandftaher. As has already been shown in red, grandfather doesn't exist. It was impossible for me to witness him! Therefore, it has already been shown that my viewpoint wasn't ojbective!
It is possible that it was just a sheet or something fluttering in the wind and rain which you mistook for Kinzo. It cannot be used as foreshadowing to form a basis for Knox's 9th! Mistaking things for something else is a right permitted to all observers!
There's the red truth which Beato showed during the 4th game! No person would mistake Ushiromiya Kinzo by sight!

Beacuse of the right granted by Knox's 9th, people are allowed to mistake a sheet in the wind for anything else and tell about it. However! Mistaking it for grandfather in particular is not permitted in this game due to the red truth!
So, once you claimed to have seen Kinzo, it was no longer misrecognition, but INTENTIONAL. In other words, this proves that the observer wasn't objective... is that what you are SAYING?


Forgive my crazy argument... it's all finished now.

No, it's all RIGHT.



Battler's sword stops a hair's breadth short of Dlanor's head.


I've paid my debt. Let honor be to your father. The Decalogue was neither arrogant nor judgemental!

H... Honor to... my FATHER...

Wh... What are you doing, Dlanor?! Lame, pathetic! You stupid half-wit murder doll! You've tainted the honor of your own father! Shame on you! You still call yourself mystery's wedges?! Will you surrender to magic?! The history of the mystery genre won't allow it!

You're the one that doesn't understand what mystery is all about. If you see mystery as nothing more than a weapon with which to sneer at your opponent intellectually... I won't let you say so every again!

B... Battleeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrr!
I'll present a truth that conflicts with yours! Natsuhi was threatened by a phone call over the internal line sent by the man from 19 years ago - me! His goal was to make Natsuhi look like a murderer! From the beginning, this has all been a drama of revenge intent on framing Natsuhi!
Th-That's wrong, it's a drama of revenge against the Ushiromiya family that Natsuhi thought up! Your theory outright opposes mine!
You still can't pull out the blue spear that's sticking through you, right?


This spear is just.... ugh... gaaaaahh! You paperweights, get out of my way...!

...I acknowledge the mistake in Erika's reasoning and the need for revision.

What the... my master?!

I don't give a damn about your pride. How long do you intend to shame yourself like that? You, my double who's been granted the same blue hair as me, how long do you intend to hang there pierced through like that? I guess I'll just have to descend myself...




...My master... I... I've taken it out... My theory... is perfect...

Are you kidding me? It's horribly pathetic. But I'll forgive you. Because your face and your theory are so lame that it's funny!


Regardless of how pathetic it might BE, Lady Erika's revised truth is EFFECTIVE.

Yeah, that's right. Regardless of my truth, yours can exist at the same time. That's what this world is like. No one can disprove them, so even if there are various truths and even if they contradict each other wildly, they can exist at the same time. Here, as many truths exist as you can imagine. No one can just deny that all on their own!

Yes, that is TRUE. I won't let anyone deny Lady Erika's TRUTH.

D... Dlanor...

As long as I'm here, I will protect that TRUTH. No matter how pathetic it is, I will not laugh at that TRUTH.


Because no unique truth exists, everything is covered in darkness. Therefore, while both my theory and Erika's theory are impossible to deny, neither is a unique truth. They are vague, and while neither can be denied, neither is certain!


BGM: Tsubasa (Ver. Hope)




...Sure. Of course I'll give you a chance.

Wow, incredible. She said 'I'll give you a chance'. Isn't this a miracle? Witch of Miracles, Bernkastel.

Erika. You've miraculously managed to escape with your life. In this 6th game... Battler's game... expose the truth no matter what, unless you want to be tossed aside into the darkness of oblivion!

Y-Yes, my master! Dl... Dlanor...

Of COURSE. I will give it my all in the next game as WELL.

Heh... hehheheheheheh! I won't pretend to be a guest any longer! Together with Dlanor, I'll tear your game to bits!

Sure. I'll invite you to my 6th game! Sorry, but that title of yours isn't cutting it.

It's your game. You can decide the name yourself! Just bring it on! I, Furudo Erika, am a detective before I am a witch! I acknowledge you as the new master of this game... and I issue a proclamation of war! I'll definitely... definitely expose it all! I'll kill you! Golden Sorcerer, Ushiromiya Battler!

Yeah, come at me with all you've got! Furudo Erikaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
