This would be fine if it were one or two chapters for this mystery, but this is also not good mystery writing. You want to give enough information to the audience for them to solve it, and then include things like red herrings to trip up the reader. The longer this runs, the more that becomes an...
@Kampfarsch He thinks the kid is a monster. The joke in this situation is that he completely misread the trick and still managed to say something close enough to the truth that his accidental bluff worked.

Also: what are you doing, comment section? Are you all forgetting that her second plan was to sleep with Lancelot to get him to marry her so she could use his connections to Ares, and...
@KazumaLee94 Fooly has a better track record than Yamcha. Fooly is closer to the party member love interest that is not as powerful as the MC, but has plot relevance due to being the love interest. We haven't quite gotten to the point where someone kidnapped him to get at Leo, but it has gotten...
