As though understanding what its Host was thinking, the System said disdainfully, [Host, what Lily said is not lewd… at all. It is your mind that is lewd.]
Immediately after, it added, [Pervert!]
[How can you call me lewd when clearly you thought the same as me?] Lucian said with a roll of his eyes, then suddenly, his eyes narrowed dangerously, as he continued in a menacing tone, [Unless you can hear my thoughts…]
The System became silent, not agreeing or disagreeing with Lucian's sudden claim, It was put into a difficult position. If it agreed, to being able to hear Lucian's thoughts, then it was unknown how Lucian would react. At the very least, the System knew Lucian would not react positively to his thoughts being heard. However, if the System disagreed, it would be labeled a pervert. And obviously, it was not a pervert!
'What a terrible slip-up.' The System thought to itself.
