For a few minutes, only silence was heard in the room as two boys faced each other. One sitting with a shocked expression, and the other standing in determination.

"You... Are you still half-asleep?" Feng Lei asked dubiously. "I am perfectly awake, young master." Du Qiang answered seriously. "Oh... But being friends with me-" "I mean it and I'm not going to take it back."

Facing Du Qiang who was adamant about being his friend, Feng Lei just smiled wryly. "Go back to your quarters. I'll think about it." He said after a moment of contemplation. "As you wish." Du Qiang sighed and left the room dispiritedly.

Finally, Feng Lei was left alone in his room.

[...you win]

As he heard the system's voice inside his head, Feng Lei smirked inwardly.

But of course! That's only natural. I studied different types of arts for six years! That includes acting! In this world where its arts hasn't matured yet, I have the confidence to fool anyone with just my acting alone!

[I have to admit, if I wasn't in your head, I would've been fooled.]

Did you have fun being my practice buddy?

[You mean during that time in the dining hall? Kid, I live in your head. Ever since the time you mentioned missing your family, I already knew something fishy was going on.]

Ohoho! You really know me the best!

[I now understand why the higher ups specifically chose you to replace Feng Lei's soul. Only a villainous person to the core can be worthy of being a villain in this novel!]

Aww... System-bro, you flatter me too much! If you continue, I'm afraid you'll make me blush!

[Ai... You're hopeless... But... This time, you paid a heavy price. Your acting skills are so superior, you actually managed to fool the world's energy core and acquired an inner demon! Just how do you plan to fix this?]

Peh! Inner demon? I acquired it because of acting! Close to none of it was real so of course, getting rid of it will be a piece of cake!

[...do you have any plans of getting rid of it?]

...none at the moment.

[Your grandmother! What do you plan to do with an inner demon, huh?! Keep it and raise it as a pet?!]

Chill, system-bro. Keeping the demon inside, of course I have a plan! It'll be very useful.
