Kieran didn't move because he could tell Emma Eddie's knife wouldn't hurt him, and in fact, it didn't.
The seemingly sharp knife grazed Kieran's ear and stabbed into his pillow.
Emma Eddie, who completed the action, looked at Kieran carefully, and when she realized he didn't even blink, she frowned.
She pulled the knife out.
Cotton and feathers flew out of the pillow and got stuck in Kieran's head and on his face. He looked unusually messy, but his eyes were as calm as still water.
Emma Eddie frowned harder under the calm gaze.
"You didn't show fear or rage. Is it because you can tell that I won't actually harm you?"
Obviously, after changing into a new identity, Emma Eddie gained knowledge and sharp observation befitting her new self.
Kieran did not answer and instead looked at the surroundings quietly.
