And now Shido is just agreeing with him? Akechi's beginning to revisit his afterlife idea from earlier, though a bizarre hallucination as he bleeds out in Shido's Palace seems more likely.

Well, whatever it is, he has to deal with it. He can worry about the what and the how and the why later. For now he's got a chance to rest. As much as he can in this situation, at least. There's another deliberate pause before Akechi finally sets the point of his sword against the floor, then tips it against the wall. Movements brusque, he starts to strip off his gloves.

"What is this place?" Much as he dislikes the idea of potentially playing into Shido's hands, he does need information. So he'll put up with it for now.
