>>6112587Across from you in the middle living room Seo-yun sits, more so crashes, onto the double bed while you’re left leaning on the door leading to the small bathroom,” So? You wanted to speak, so speak,” She all but orders. It is true though, that after Rin and Morgan paired you decided to pair with Seo-yun leaving Minato with Maxwell, the man seems the easier of the two to work with.
“Honestly? I just wanted to give my earlier argument in full without all the heckling,” You say to ease her into what you might decide to tell her.
“That whole ‘nobodies a traitor let’s all be friends' thing?’ Right? Yeah, sorry I find it hard to believe given who we’re trapped with,” She not so subtly glares at the door to where Morgan and Rin are.
“Well, then I agree with you there.”
“Huh,” She turns to you, a bit shocked, “Wait you agree with me?”
“Yeah, I think it might still be a comradery test but there’s certainly an element of this being some sort of twisted game as well. Morgan doesn’t exactly seem like,” How do you put this? “She doesn’t seem the most stable of people.”
“That’s putting it lightly. Can you believe her? Thinking I’d want to just up and kill someone? She this place is different but it doesn’t seem to be some- some backwater that needs to be, argh, forget it.”
“No, I understand you. I’ve been here for a bit and met some pretty cool people who’d fit in pretty well back on Earth too,” You can imagine Catherine-chan as one of those trendy popular girls with an expensive purse and obsessed with fashion, and Lorina-senpai yelling at people over voice chat during ranked matches.
“And can you believe Rin? He speaks like one of those super-old nationalists in a retirement home, who actually speaks like that in 2020?”
“Maybe that’s his Cheat Skill? Making himself look younger?” To that Seo-yun lets out a little snort before looking at you, a bit more cordial.
“Um, Cheat Skill? Like systems in a manwha?”
You nod, “Exactly, it’s another Inquisition term for abilities Strangers have on arriving in this world.”
“Oh, okay. Then I’d bet on it, stupid bastard.”
“Hey, did you notice something else about Morgan? She’s obviously a vampire, right?”
“Hm? What do you mean? She comes off as a parasite, totally but a vampire?”
You list off, “Hide from the sun, very pale, red eyes, psychopath, it’s all there.”
Seo-yun nods as you continue, “Okay, I see you. Maybe that’s why she’s not afraid of drowning? Vampires don’t have to breathe, right?” That’s actually a pretty good point.
“You’re probably right there, she definitely seems like some sadistic narcissist obsessed with death game manga,” You don’t mention how you’ve read and played quite a few in the genre.
“Do you think that’s why she set this all up? I still have a hard time believing she wasn’t told who the traitor was ahead of time.”
