The Suspecting Divinity

The Divinity's smile was that of a parent who had managed to trick their children into revealing the truth. 

It was the same smile that he had when he had caught the Immortal in his lies. Now, he believed he had caught Pearl in the same lie. 

"Just you, huh? And you managed to not just survive their attacks, but also kill a few of them in return," he said.

Pearl slowly nodded. "Yes, senior. That is what happened," he said.

"And how did you do that?"

"I fought," Pearl said. "I'm good with that."

"So you had no other help?" the Divinity asked.

"Oh! No, I did have help," Pearl said, sounding as though he had only just remembered something so crucial.

The Divinity smiled as though he had gotten to the good part. "Finally. Who helped you?" he asked.

Pearl gestured toward Yuren in the distance. "That kid."
