In the excerpt the narration affects the reliability of the narrator because he admits lying, so he is reliable, as expressed in option B and explained below.

<h3>What is a reliable narrator?</h3>

A reliable narrator is a simply a narrator we can trust. Generally, first-person narrators are considered unreliable because they tell the story from their own perspective. Facts are then mixed with opinions and impressions.

However, in the excerpt we are analyzing here, the narrator admits to the lies told. That shows he is telling readers the truth, which makes him more reliable to the audience.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option B as the correct answer.
