[Barsel]

I'm trying to think of a word but my brain has gone to sleep. It's when you say something to someone like 'Oh you are so clever' and they say 'yes I am' and you say that person is ???

When they say 'yes I am' you would say 'and not at all? Modest is close Patsy but I'm not sure if it's the word I'm looking for.

Just curious.
