It seemed that after he had voluntarily revealed his identity to Mei, Bronya was also close to discovering his hidden identity.
Come to think of it...
Xu Yanwu felt a little embarrassed.
At the Cocolia Orphanage, Cocolia knew Xu Yanwu's true identity, as did An and Seele. Bronya was the only one he had kept in the dark from the very beginning...
But from the looks of things, Bronya would soon uncover the true connection between him and all those identities of his.
"Keeping alternate identities really is hard..."
Xu Yanwu shook his head. "I really wonder how those protagonists in novels manage to maintain so many identities without getting exposed. There's never been a shortage of clever people in this world..."
After that brief complaint, Xu Yanwu once again turned his attention to Bronya in the Saint Mark Space.
However...
When Xu Yanwu spoke to Bronya, she did not mention a single word about what she had been investigating.
That left Xu Yanwu feeling rather helpless.
The thing was... Xu Yanwu had no intention of stopping Bronya and the others from investigating. In fact, if they simply asked him directly, he could tell them about all of it.
"Bronya, how is your investigation into Yae Village going?"
Xu Yanwu asked her, "If there's anything you haven't managed to figure out but really want to know, I can tell you directly."
"Uncle Xu, I've more or less finished investigating. All that's left is to attend the Sacrifice Ritual held in Yae Village."
After saying that, Bronya thought for a moment and finally asked Xu Yanwu a question. "Uncle Xu... that god of Yae Village..."
"What about that god?" Xu Yanwu asked in return.
"Is the god of Yae Village..." Bronya suddenly fell silent at that point, then changed the subject.
