The Siren's rebuttal was almost laughable. If she thought him to truly be a 'good man' as she claimed, Kou... no, even Yugi, would consider her horribly mistaken. He even drew closer to her ear as he gave his own retort. "Good men don't need rules. Now isn't the time to find out why someone like me has so many," he said clearly. The Siren gave her order, and those under her would see her mangled form all over Atlantis. Just the same, those fighting for justice in the streets of this kingdom would see the ultimate obstacle of their revolution, cowering and defeated.

And yet... Kou wasn't done. In his present state, and only then, could he wash his Mana over the Siren in a special way. She would die, but not truly. He would purify her in a way that would leave all of her consciousness intact, but just as his visage could passively quell those with malicious intent, this special application of his energy would instill a Divine Law unto the Siren that would remove her physical ability to act on such intent. Those thoughts, and even her history of them, would flow directly into the cube held by Diva, along with her severed tentacles that were converted to pure energy. A new Guardian would be made, under Diva's command for the future... as if the Siren had been killed properly like the Banker and Slaver before.

"You said I couldn't kill you. Killing you would have been a kindness you don't deserve. Atlantis's ultimate enemy from within will be its ultimate Guardian. So long as the Guardian lives... you will live, in this state," he said, his eyes containing a glow almost reminiscent of the Devouring's hold taking place... and yet, it was something pure and well beyond that.
