[An agent? So that explains everything that was going on... He still looked like a butler and acted like a dog, so he put all the pieces together. In the end, he was truly being an idiot again. Maybe he seriously underestimated her which makes him feel more worst than he already is. There was a pause before he speaks up.]

Heh... Is that right?

[He smiles, but it's more sad than usual. Shiage always had a inferiority complex towards people who were better than himself. It didn't help that Soushi looked ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS compared to a loser like himself. Hence why he jumped to conclusions so quickly.]

Heh... Is that right? I guess I really am pathetic to believe that I've lost my role to such a cool guy. If there was a popularity contest, I know he would win compared to me. In the end, I'm not all that strong, well poised or handsome.

But... [...] At least I know that you still believe in me. [He wasn't sure if he could even believe in himself anymore.]
