==== Transcript ====
**'Dark' Silver Wolf:**\\
When was the last time you ever lost?

**Silver Wolf:**\\
Enough chit-chat...

**Kafka:**\\
You're running out of time.

**'Dark' Silver Wolf:**\\
But she hasn't given up. Elio, do you really believe she can do things I can't?

**Kafka:**\\
Elio says it's because she doesn't believe in limits that she's here. Look, she's back.

**'Dark' Silver Wolf:**\\
429 times. How do you want to die this time?

**Silver Wolf:**\\
I'll kill you.

//(On-screen message: "15 system hours ago...")//

**Kafka:**\\
Join us, Punklorde's esteemed wolf.

**Silver Wolf:**\\
I already said we can make a deal, but you have no bargaining chip or sincerity.

**Kafka:**\\
Elio wants me to ask you: How long has your "Cartridge" been stuck at the current level?

**Silver Wolf:**\\
You guys... are a little bit too nosy!


**Kafka:**\\
Forgive me. This is our bargaining chip, and this... is our sincerity.\\
The Aeons set a limit for you. Join us, and you'll have the chance to break through it.

**'Dark' Silver Wolf:**\\
Watch carefully. This is how to use aether editing. Break through the limit? Infinite upgrades?\\
There was once someone who believed these lies, too...\\
She founded a Dark Zone Empire and crushed the IPC. She united the Rangers and hackers, and brought the tavern under her banner. Finally, she breached Device IX and supplanted Polka.

**Silver Wolf:**\\
Ha! As if such a person could exist... Wait, unless you're—

**'Dark' Silver Wolf:**\\
She won all games and stood at the peak of Elation. If even she couldn't do it, how can you?

**Silver Wolf:**\\
Through... This!

**'Dark' Silver Wolf:**\\
What!?

**Silver Wolf:**\\
Hah, I see. I remember you said the Stellaron Hunters exist to rewrite the Finality...\\
And they're here to rewrite their own endings too. So... The only one who can beat you is yourself [(aka me)].
The peak of Elation? No one cares. Right now, I just want to knock you out!\\
Aether editing, UB_0097![(This is in the transcript, but it's not in the dialogue or on-screen: Aether editing, UB_0510!)]

**'Dark' Silver Wolf:**\\
Looks like lending you an arm wasn't enough.

**Silver Wolf:**\\
Then... Just hand 'em ALL over!

**Kafka:**\\
Knowing one's future (Finality) may not change a person. But the unpredictable Elation has the power to interfere with the "script."

**Silver Wolf:**\\
When was the last time you ever lost?

**'Dark' Silver Wolf:**\\
That's something I can't even remember anymore. Just keep winning like me. I'll be watching you.

**Silver Wolf:**\\
Quiet. You won't be my endgame.

**Kafka:**\\
Right now, you still can't control it. We'll hold onto this cartridge for you in the meantime.

**Silver Wolf:**\\
Who do you take me for...? I won't become destiny's slave.

**Kafka:**\\
Anything above level 999 is the gods' domain. Come now, the game to hunt an Aeon is about to begin.
