Chapter 10: The Prophet role is trash – even dogs wouldn't touch it.

"I notice your strategic positioning is truly elite, probably the most sophisticated at this table."

"Why are you already mapping out wolf suspects and telling No.2 to adjust their sheriff badge flow when we're still waiting to hear everyone's speeches?!"

"If it weren't for No.6 and No.7's speeches, I'd have forgotten this is supposed to be a game of analyzing speeches. I thought we were fortune-tellers!"

"Let me ask you—haven't you hogged enough of this metaphorical dinner table?"

No.9 smirked mockingly at No.8 beside them, the word "moron" practically leaping from their eyes.

No.8 glared back with a look that screamed "dumbass, don't touch me."

"No.8 is either a chaotic civilian or a charging wolf. I can't be bothered with them anymore."

"I'll decide my final vote after hearing No.2's speech this round."

"No.2's prophet credibility isn't high in my book, but I won't rigidly commit yet."

"Players who didn't run for sheriff will soon explain their alignment choices. I'll reassess the post-sheriff dynamics after that."

"Today's showdown is between No.2 and No.7. Let me be clear—I won't tolerate side votes."

"Because this is life-or-death stakes!"

"Not some casual friend hangout!"

"I'm temporarily siding with No.7. No.6's overall speech was solid, with clear logic."

"No.8 labeling me as wolf-candidate is absurd. I explained my alignment reasoning during the sheriff race."

"If No.6 and No.7 were teammates, why would they needlessly attack No.2 upfront?"

"What's the gain in making everyone resent them as an obvious pack?"

"Hence, No.6 and No.7 seem more like independent good players who found common ground through analysis."

No.9 even felt like the mouthpiece for Nos.6-7.

Since when does claiming a role automatically make someone a wolf?

Is this game really pushing that "bad coin drives out good" mentality?

Might as well call it workplace PUA!

"I don't see major issues with the vote tally. As civilians, vote if you can identify the prophet."

"Undecided voters can force a tie for another speech round."

"Just because No.12 voted for No.7, does that make them all wolves? Is that logic?"

"Or is this just No.8's delusion?"

"Actually, No.5 preemptively siding with No.7 before their prophet claim added pressure."

"That hustle-work actually lowered No.2's prophet credibility."

"No.6 analyzed and concluded No.2 couldn't be prophet, hence their late alignment."

"If No.2 were really prophet, they'd need to address those points anyway."

"No.8 isn't listening at all—just hating on No.6. Honestly, if you hate it, don't watch!"

"We're gambling with lives here—everything's for victory."

"No room for petty grudges or tantrums. We won't coddle you."

"Aligned with No.7. Don't shift the elimination target today—I'll decide after No.2's speech."

No.9 radiated combativeness, looking ready to slap No.8 into next week.

Nos.6-7 felt vindicated—No.9 was their white knight, while No.8 was either a charging wolf or a stubborn mule.

Even while metaphorically chewing the table, No.8 kept spouting nonsense—every word wrong.

Headache-inducing.

The livechat erupted again:

"Is No.6 your daddy, No.9?"

"No.9—you're the joke here!"

"No.6's the wolf hunter! Wake up, No.9!"

"No.8's face is green with rage!"

Secretly, Lin Tian always respected No.9's consistent alignment with No.7 pre- and post-sheriff, showing no wolf tells.

Lin Tian clarified his mission—this round was about persuading civilians to reject No.2's fake prophet claim.

The headache lay in countering every anti-No.7 argument while identifying wolves.

Precision persuasion would be key—a test for this "civilian wolf king" Lin Tian.

[No.10's Speech]

"I didn't run for sheriff because I believe civilian voters matter more."

"No.2's speech met baseline standards. Nos.6-7's critiques of No.2 had some validity."

"No.6 even used psychological analysis—impressive structure."

"But after No.3 tested No.2, No.2 stayed composed. That leans me toward No.2 as prophet."

This perspective represented most No.2 supporters.

No.3's pressure-test crucially boosted No.2's prophet image.

If No.2 were fake, No.3 would be irredeemably suspicious.

"No.7's speech disappointed me."

"If No.7 were real prophet, they should either label No.3 as wolf or commit to checking them."

"No logic in following No.6's suggestion to check among Nos.1/3/8 for No.8."

For No.10, prophet credibility hinges on badge strategy. His critique:

No.7's badge targets (Nos.10/12 for checks and Nos.1/8 for elimination) didn't match No.10's expectations.

While reasonable from his perspective, prophets must optimize checks for maximum civilian benefit.

No.7 prioritized logical connections over obvious targets like No.3 (No.2's implied ally).

Hence the meme: "prophet role is trash"—good play is easy, consensus-building is luck.

"No.6 seems to be feeding lines to No.7."

"No.2's the real prophet—No.7 scammed No.4's vote."

If No.2's sheriff bid was strategic, why not fake a wolf-check instead of safe "civilian" claim?

Thus No.10 firmly believed No.2 was real.

"If Nos.6-7 are packmates, No.12 probably isn't wolf."

"With No.2's ironclad position, why would three wolves openly clash? That'd implode the pack."

"Hence, likely one hidden traitor wolf."

"No.2 should check Nos.1 or 11—possible covert wolves."

"Also, killing the sheriff today risks wolves keeping No.2 for later elimination. Stay vigilant."

No.10 had fully joined No.2's faction.

"I agree today's vote stays on No.2 vs No.7. Off-target votes are too risky."

Livechat exploded:

"Hot take: What if No.6's the hunter and No.7's real prophet? No.7's pack looks too weak!"

"LMAO this game! Who's the real prophet?!"

"Pack's right there! No.7 + No.9 + No.12 + a traitor!"

"No.6's hunter charging in? Would wolves double-charge?"

"Whole thing's sus..."
