"This is the Trial!" She quickly shouted, making Lux stop and pay attention to her.
"My brother and I are supposed to lie and deceive the participants into believing us, that's our power. And for every successful lie, our power will permanently increase."
"I was supposed to make sure that you will reach the end of the Infernal Realm with me, thus, resulting in you failing to clear the Trial because you couldn't see through my ability."
As the woman said that, Lux frowned and asked a few other questions.
"Then why was your ability and acting so weak? It was quite easy to tell that you weren't Khione."
Despite saying that, Lux also had to admit that besides some things that gaze her away, the woman did a great job copying Khione's aura and abilities.
Hello dear readers!

But after that, normal posts again<3
