I woke up and left the tent. And I see people looking at me weirdly. I asked them what's wrong and they told me that they're curious to see Mai's brother.
"We don't know that yet for sure. I just know that my half-brother has the same ability as she is. Though we might still be relatives. Maybe not half-siblings. It's possible that we're distant cousins. And it's possible that we're not related at all. So don't jump into conclusion first," I told them.
Today, I'm checking the village from the inside. Seeing how they're living here and this time, not from the lake.
I asked the people there one by one about what they thought of the cult. And everyone here seems to hate them.
I also asked them if they knew about Mai's ability to detect lies. And they knew that. I guess she told everyone about it.
Then in the afternoon, I met Mai who seems to have sorted her mind.
"What do you think about this village?" Mai asked.
