The old man is dead, but his brain is still intact. He's not a monster, he's just an old man. The gardeners have destroyed all the monsters in the city, and the old man wonders how long it will take to rebuild the city. He wants to know why Urito betrayed him. Urito wanted to create a parallel universe to save Irene, but he couldn't because of the unstable nature of the Yggdrasil's chip. When the gardeners realized that Urito was the one who stole their data, they created a new generation of monsters. They also discovered that they were using Urito's data to create the new monsters. The only problem, Urito says, is that they have a blackwing chip, which they can use to trap Forseti, but only one of the gardeners can deal with him. They've already created thousands of new monsters, but they're useless now, because Urito knows where they've stored the chip.
