Chapter 12 - Double reversed psychology

Greg: Elma... You... in reality, never betrayed those two in the first place right?

Elma: What?....

Greg: Ah, you know what? Let's just forget about what I said!

Elma slaps Greg on the face...

Elma: Seriously? You just accused me that I'm betraying you!

Greg stands still without saying a word

Elma: Oh man, this is why I believed and trusted you and always did what you told me to do?

Referee 15: The one minute is up!

in the one hour...

Greg: She really can't lie huh? Her voice line and eyes revealed her real intention, she is still with them, huhuhuh... Oh well, I actually might have a chance to win this!

Referee 15: The one hour is up! Time to take your actions!

Greg starts to sign to Elma

Elma (Huh? Is he actually letting me know what he will do? DEF-to-right(Joseph)(?), haha..., Does he really think I'm really gonna believe him? Are you only telling me the exact opposite of what you are going to do aren't you Greg?)

Referee 15: It's time to reveal the results of the 8th round!

8th Round:

Elma: 39 HP (0)

Joseph: 32 HP (-4)

Bandeer: 31 HP (-5)

Greg: 27 HP (-3)

Greg (Everyone looks confused! What's wrong Bandeer? Seems like you're not that good at predicting my moves aren't you?)

Elma (What? What happened? How?)

Bandeer (Impossible! ! ! Greg, you are behind this right? So this is how it looks when you take a game seriously? You take it to the next level!? You seem too happy! I don't like that!)

Referee 15: Only 30 seconds!

Bandeer: Joseph! We should go! !

Joseph: R-Right!

Elma: What did you just...

Greg: Oh it's nothing interesting, also, I want to let you know that they do not trust you anymore.

Elma: After we ended up in the same team with you I never betrayed yo...

Greg: NO, I know what you did, and you still want them to win, we don't have much time so, we both will DEF!

Referee 15: The one minute is up, please.

Elma went back to her room.

Referee 15: Greg, please. What you did here is insane.

Greg: Huh? You know what I just did?

Referee 15: If I'm not mistaken, but I'm pretty sure it was not just mere luck.

Greg: You're right, but I'm curious what you think about what I just did here.

Referee 15: So first, you realised that Elma has actually never betrayed those 2, Bandeer and Joseph. It explained why Bandeer was not angry or stressed about you two, also it explains how Bandeer could do the perfect actions against you, but not against Elma, somehow she always remained at so much HP. Bandeer knew what you will do because you told Elma earlier and she is the only one who knows what you do, she is easily able to sign to Bandeer in a way that you could not notice!

Greg: Yeah, so far so good, but it was just the precedents.

Referee 15: Yes, I know, after that, you told Elma that you think she betrayed you, so after that she thought that you surely won't tell her about what you will do, because you just told her you are already not trusting her. And you knew that she would not believe in you after all that happened right?

Greg: Yeah pretty much.

Referee 15: The only possibility that you could have thought about how Bandeer knew what you will do is that Elma is signing to him, so at first I thought you would need to sign the exact actions of what you will do, but then I saw you are signing her the opposite actions you will actually do. I didn't have any idea why you would do that, but then I saw the outcomes...

Greg: You were surprised right? And, you realised what happened afterwards, and why?

Referee 15: Yes, I think I do. Because of the round before this, Elma signed to Bandeer of what actions will you do, but the outcomes proved that you did differently than what she signed, so Bandeer did not trust Elma already, but Elma did not know this yet. So you signed the opposite actions what you will do, Elma thought for sure that you showing the exact opposite, so she actually signed your exact moves to Bandeer, and because Bandeer not trusted her already, he thought Elma is showing him the opposite of what you will do, so Bandeer thought you will only DEF to Joseph's direction! This is what you originally showed to Elma that you will do

Greg: Yes that's exactly what happened, seems like the referees are pretty smart heh.

Referee 15: It's insane you played it all along, you planned it since the round before this and everything happened as you planned, even, you showed her the opposite of what you will do, and you knew she will think this and calculated it into the plan, brilliant!

Greg: Hey referee guy. Can I have a question?

Referee 15: What exactly?

Greg: You know about the player numbered 2 right?

Referee 15: Oh, so you know about him?

Greg: Of course I do, is he doing well in his game? Or do you even know about it?

Referee 15: He is in the winning position so far. You want him to lose maybe?

Greg: I do, but I know there is no shot that would happen.

Referee 15: Well if both of you win in this game, then I'm pretty sure there is a very high chance of you two ending up in the same group.

Greg: I know, millions of people want to see me and him have a match. In fact, the reason why I am in the same group with Bandeer is because they know I'm a big friend of Adam. They advertise this match as "Can Greg get revenge on Bandeer?", or something like that.

Referee 15: You really are really smart. Your match is even more viewed than no.2's match.
