Grace literally just tried to admit to being isekai'd but the NPCs wouldn't believe it. I wonder if it's even possible for them to comprehend.

Hinako chose Orion's name, and from my understanding might have extra control over them. Orion is a dual mode so it's more like having two separate spirits... just like Grace.

It's so rare for these reincarnated Villainess' to straight up admit everything but the Elegant Cheat just spins it as maturity. Sasuga Grace-sama.

Hinako is probably going to have to use all the Otaku power she has in her body to power through this entire game storyline if she's going to have more input into the gameplay than they were expecting.

In a bit of fairness, the Elegance Cheat seems to be filtering Kenzaburou's speech so it's more fitting of how Grace or at least someone in this world would speak.

We know what Grace meant when she talked about new life born within her, but she spoke vaguely enough that I can understand why the other characters might think she was talking about her growth as a person.

📜We're a system and trust us. People can't even wrap their heads around multiple people in one body normally, let alone a fantasy one like Kenzaburou and Grace! It's gonna take some hard evidence for them to believe him, eheh - Marcille

Like the elf from the reverse Isekai marginal operation, the earth humans just assume she is a crazy American that got ear surgery.

I mean, it honestly adds up. When faced with an outlandish situation, people generally assume the most likely solution. What's more likely - that someone has grown, or that they've gained a second soul?
