Now it was all or nothing, I had to leave no holes and connect everything with so perfectly logical context in order to survive.
"I'm soone just like you. I'm only a servant to the lord. However, I was sent to test you, and you passed!"
"There's no way you expect to believe that, right?"
I sighed again.
"No, I guess not, then allow to start from the beginning."
She nodded.
"As I already said, similar to you I am just a servant. But you already knew that right?"
She remained silent.
"I an it was obvious because you saw bleed when fighting against Willow which ans that I'm not one of the immortals, also aning I'm not the lord."
Now she responds.
"Yeah, of course, I knew that, but still who are you?"
'She's falling for it!'
But it was still just the start and there was no way she trusted fully but thankfully I still had more excuses.
Using my knowledge from being the author I also knew for a fact that Miss Smith couldn't be a direct mber of The Untouchables.
This was for a multitude of reasons. First I never wrote about her being immortal from so faraway place.
Although it's now quite apparent to that so things are out of my understanding, one thing that remains factual is the background of a character which cannot be altered.
Secondly, even if she was part of this group in another novel I wrote, that she was hard which ans that even in the future she isn't immortal.
Finally, "Let continue, you said it yourself that you were only a servant to the lord aning you aren't immortal and just like a regular human being."
This finally cleared up one of the problems where she believed to be the lord. Now it was clear that I was in the sa position as her, rely a slave.
"Okay, I can believe that we are in the sa position but you have yet to explain who you truly are."
'Yes! Part one was a success! Now it all cos down to this.'
"Right, well you see I am like you but it's just that I am in a slightly higher position where I have direct communication with the lord."
She narrowed her eyes while I continued.
"He didn't reveal anything about himself which is why I don't know his true na but he sent here to get in contact with you specifically."
Miss Smith still wasn't buying it but she also wasn't completely unreasonable. What I was saying made sense because she didn't know the na of the lord. Which is why she continued to try to figure out the truth of the matter.
But this also ant I could have picked any random na and been saved from going through this hardship.
"Why would he do that?"
'Now for the final blow.'
"You see he saw how much potential I had and he decided to send to grow under your guidance."
"He did?"
'Now just to wrap everything up and I'll be ho free.'
"Yes, he recognized your talents and decided that I would be a good fit under you."
She started to blush.
"Really?"
But then she caught herself and asked another question.
"Although I'm not disagreeing that I would be a great teacher if you had so much potential, why wouldn't he just teach you himself?"
'No problem I can work with this.'
"That's because the lord is an extrely busy man. I shouldn't be saying this but he and the others have sothing big in the works."
'Using context clues I was able to deduce that there were other lords so I made sure to incorporate that into my story while also sprinkling in so lies.'
"What is it that they are planning?"
"That- that not even I was privileged to."
She thought for a second.
"Makes sense."
Now at this point, I knew I could probably get away free but I hadn't finished my original goal so I kept pushing my luck even though it was a huge gamble.
"Now although the lord saw great potential in before I could be of any use he needs to get stronger, and this is where you co in."
"To guide and train you?"
"Correct! He gave a mission to beco as strong as possible in the shortest amount of ti so that I could be of help to him. Specifically what he wished is that I will be able to defeat you."
At this point, I needed to make it so that Miss Smith wouldn't go around asking questions or try to get involved more than she needed to. With this in mind, I tried to up play myself.
"Defeat ? Then does that an…"
"Yes, unfortunately, his plans are so grand that you won't be able to support him at your current strength. However, fret not because she has placed you as the greatest guide to support ."
Hearing my bittersweet words Miss Smith seed wounded by the fact she wouldn't be of any help essentially making her useless all because she was too weak.
But before she could hate herself too much I made sure to add in so benefits.
"Yet our lord is extrely generous! By agreeing to teach all that you know he will reward you for your efforts!"
Her eyes sparkled.
"Reward ?"
"Of course! After all, how do you think I ca about getting the information as to where your sister is?"
This caused her mouth to drop open in shock and everything started making sense in her mind.
It was at this mont that she bought up everything I said and truly believed to be who I claid to be.
This was also perfect for because it allowed to be more open with her and leave out any possible impossibilities to be gifts from the lord.
anwhile, I would still be able to milk Miss Smith dry of everything she knows including so of the secret moves I wouldn't have been able to get previously.
Having everything sorted and connected perfectly in a web of lies my gamble paid off more than I could have ever hoped it could.
It was now Miss Smith who took the lead by believing everything I said to be true as she wanted to get right to work.
"Then we should get back to training. We need you to get strong for both of our sakes!"
Completely agreeing with her I was about to get right back into it when I recalled the whole reason I got into this ss.
"Miss Smith, I forgot to explain my skill to you!"
Rembering our early conversation Miss Smith was shocked and asked about it for a second ti.
"Yes, can you tell all about that now?"
This was also sothing I had to do because I needed to keep up with the act that I had great potential.
If I ca up with this great lie and then progressed at a snail's pace Miss Smith would get suspicious again. Therefore showing her my skill will prove that I'm above others similar in age.
But even then I didn't have to worry too much since I already consud multiple Talent Breakers making my potential otherworldly.
"Yeah, it's a skill that allows to slowly recuperate mana within my body which in turn is restorative."
I lied about the facts of the skill dumbing it down to sothing that only allows to slowly return expended mana rather than its true role which is to quickly add more mana overall.
However, the part about it helping out my tired body was true even if it recently found it out.
"Ah, I see."
But there was a reason I brought this topic back up.
"But you see because of this it makes things like building muscle much easier. Which is why I was hoping we could get right into sword arts. That way I can get stronger on my own ti by making use of the gym."
Miss Smith paused to think and the more she did the more reasonable it sounded. After all, the mission was to make as strong as possible in the shortest amount of ti.
Thus, if I were to train on my own with simple things like working out she could focus all her ti on teaching the ways of the sword.
Miss Smith was completely on board with the idea which was perfect for . The reason was that I needed a way to get out of doing those laps and beco a sword master in a short period of ti.
Yet although she had made up her mind on the subject she never revealed it to and instead asked a strange question.
"Are you sure you will be able to train in the gym?"
Confused as to where she was going with this I answered:
"Yeah, why?"
She smiled.
"I figured you'd be too busy having your way with so girl."
