That was not only an unexpected offer but also incredibly telling. The Mastermind of Schwarz would not be offering such detail, suggesting as much as he just had lightly or unknowingly. What exactly was his angle?
Manx shook her head minutely to break the dumbfounded stare that she finally realized she had fixed on Schuldig. She also sealed her lips shut considering that her jaw also hung slightly open in her disbelief.
She went to begin to speak but stopped herself, clicking her jaw shut as she carefully reconsidered her words.
Slowly, she pieced her thoughts together into something coherent.
"I have no doubt in your skill. You have spared no opportunity to..." She stopped to choose a more appropriate word than 'flaunt'. "... display... your talent to Weiss. But I can't help but wonder how this benefits you and your team."
She had her suspicions. She understood the potential threat this weapon posed to talents. Was this Schwarz's motivation - self preservation? Sato and Weiss were quick to condemn, easily assuming the Black Team only wanted to cause more harm. It was an easy assumption to make based on past history. But they did not know what she now knew. While she didn't know much specifically about Schwarz, the things she could assume were enough to give he pause in passing judgement.
"Your team is much better equipped to handle this for many reasons. I'm assuming your interest is not in saving the lives at risk." To her credit, that statement was delivered without a single inflection in her tone.
