Chapter 1002
Siegfried used his title, "Despicable Treacherous Retainer," and his glib tongue to work on Dantalion.
“I had no other choice but to do what I did to survive. So, if my lord would be so gracious to forgive me...” Siegfried asked for forgiveness while putting on the most pitiful face he could make.
“Hmm...”
Dantalion fell hook, line, and sinker for Siegfried’s perfect acting.
The reason the Demon Lord of Deception had fallen so easily for Siegfried’s lies wasn't only because of the Despicable Treacherous Retainer title.
[I Am Backstabbing]
[Backstabbing is I, and I am backstabbing! Nobody knows if I’m backstabbing you or actually stabbing your back! Deception is as natural as breathing for me, and I can fool my enemies without even intending to!]

Siegfried had reached a level where he would end up backstabbing someone regardless of his willingness to do so. On top of that, the titles he held exponentially increased his chances of successfully fooling NPCs with his lies.
