Chapter 6 - 1.5
"You are a good actor."
Yunyu paused on the spot. He was dazed, Michael stared at the stunned Duke, he had a complicated opinion about this guy. The Duke was firm faithless, he refused to convert no matter what. But he also had a gentle soul, the gentlest Michael had ever seen in a human being. Even when the Saintess went to this slum, she still helped these abandoned people, but she had a small, almost unnoticed frown on her face.
But the Duke was too good, and Michael didn’t want to admit this. He wanted to think that the Duke was just pretending. He was just acting kind, because he wanted to challenge Michael, as a faithful follower of the god.
Michael refused to admit that the Duke was indeed a gentle soul.
The Duke paused for a moment, in his head, Yunyu was panicked.
[System! Pupa! I’ve failed, aaaah!]
[Pupa: You haven’t.]
[But he knows that I’m an actor!]
[Pupa: maybe he is just accusing you. If he knows that you are not from this world, we would get booted out immediately. Maybe he just thought that you’re pretending to be gentle.]
[Ahh, so it’s like that.] Yunyu was relieved, he really thought that his cover was blown.
[Pupa: Maybe you’re not as good as you think.]
