She was perplexed.
"Hmm? Do you have any questions?"
Fremay stared at Herbert, hesitated for a moment and softly asked, "Are you... Him?"
!!!
After hearing this, Herbert was stunned and didn't react immediately.
Is it Him?
Who?
It's... Oh!
He understood what Fremay meant.
She was doubting Herbert's identity, suspecting him to be the Ancient God that had awakened.
The special abilities Herbert displayed were far beyond what a normal human could explain through innate talent.
She had her suspicions.
Fremay didn't mind Herbert's identity; no matter who he was, it wouldn't change the fact that he was the hero she selected.
But she wanted an answer, even a hint would be fine.
Herbert gave Fremay a deep look, shook his head with a smile and said, "No, you needn't worry."
Partially correct, but mostly wrong.
He didn't explain further, just assured, "I'm not a pawn of the Gods, nor am I the vessel for His resurrection."
"He will definitely not awaken within my body."
