[He looks away uncertainly.]

...Yes, I do know the name of that menace. But... I am not the only one who knows this secret. And I sense that I may not be the best deliverer of this message.

[boldsimplicity]

Why won't you tell me?!

[He's so close to the truth and yet it's being kept from him! Ishimaru doesn't understand and it is honestly frustrating!]

I-Is such news truly that bad?! If you don't want to tell me, then at least point me in the correct direction to find it out myself!

[hamnation]

Hmrph... This is not news that should be delivered from a devil's tongue! Even I understand that.

[He sighs.]

...There are many of our number in this world. All of whom know the truth. Any of them can provide the answers that you seek... including one of your own classmates. [Them, as a thought occurs to him, he adds:] ...Aside from Junko Enoshima!

[boldsimplicity]

[E-enoshima-kun is here...? Wait, he has heard about the dead arriving...]

Not Enoshima-kun...? Ah, I understand! It's because she died before knowing the truth!

Then I shall ask Naegi-kun! You mentioned earlier that he was here and I'm confident that he'll tell me what I need to know!

[Ishimaru spins on his heel, ready to leave.]

Our battle must be postponed until later!

[hamnation]

[He is surprised by that reaction. Enoshima thought of as dead? Perhaps she faked her death at some point... But it's hard to say. However, he's sure at the very least that Naegi can break the news to this other fellow.

Then, he cracks another confident grin at Ishimaru's parting remark.]

Kehehe... of course. Prophecy foretells that our destined battle shall be waged on another day! So, you may continue to walk freely for now...
