The correct answer is He is exaggerating the truth

Explanation:

A narrator is unreliable if his words are not completely true or aim at deceiving the audience. In the excerpt presented, it is likely the narrator not completely reliable because this narrator is exaggerating. This occurs in "And travelled far; no man as far as he" or "ever honored for his ability" because even if the warrior or man he is describing is brave and has traveled a lot it is unlikely he has traveled more than any other person in the world or that his abilities or qualities are the best in the world.
