Via the system I inhibit the operation of the skill Natsuone down drastically I don’t give a damn about that The proble the skill, sensei’s own skills are disappearing as a side effect If that was all then no big deal, but because sensei is protecting Natsume-kun’s soul, sensei’s own soul is now on the brink of collapse

I ain’t grusoul, and start to regenerate it I soe to prevent the collapse All the saain, and pull my hand out from the Goddess’s body The wound on the Goddess vanishes in an instant, and she begins tohad happened

Seriously What a crazy thing to do If she was unlucky, or rather, if I hadn’t intervened then sensei’s soul would have collapsed and she’d have died In addition, for the soul to collapse, means that even reincarnation is not possible Cohhis skills erased, Natsume-kun is thrown into confusion Unable to comprehend the situation, Ya on a brave face with all herNatsu to you I advise you to reflect on this time and to live like a norain skills and becoainst gaining skills? Why? I don’t understand her doubts, nor her solution It’s like the feeling of a s stuck in your throat, my mood can’t relax at all Well, whatever

Sensei, either way, your actions this time will be in vain Even if you steal Natsue Natsume-kun isn’t likely to reflect on his actions at all, and furthermore your skill isn’t perfect either Even if you erase his skills, because you used it for a different purpose than originally intended, the end result is incomplete In the case of Natsume-kun’s erased skills, for the part of the soul’s power used for those skills, half of that is still re that shaped the power of the soul into a form that makes it easy to use in practice As such, the power of the soul that is currently unused is customised by the power of the Syste as the power of the soul remains, it means that it is still possible to acquire another skill For so easy to understand like skill points, it basicallyon display the excess amount that can be used

Natsume-kun has certainly lost his skills However, he still possesses half the rey froe back to hoas All sensei has done, is to just briefly stop hito even stop hi himself Humans, are not such noble creatures

I look at the Goddess Sensei for one, the Goddess for another, I wonder why they are trying to devote their lives to such pointless things? Scuo they won’t be saved Why don’t they get that? Also, why are they able to sacrifice themselves in order to try to save that lot? It’s incomprehensible

Ah, I’m annoyed What do they think of their own lives? Isn’t desperately struggling to stay alive what living creatures are supposed to be about? But they are doing nothing but going out of their way to waste their own lives What rier is that everyone I approve of does such things

This is why everything is getting ruined The Goddess’s devotion, Kuro’s anguish, the De’s deterether just brings ruin What of the world? I don’t care If it’s going to be destroyed then go be destroyed already Rather than everyone I would rather save only those I approve of

What sensei had activated, was the presentation skill The result is, as the naests To present the power of the soul that is comprised of one’s own skills to the world Sensei forcibly made Natsume-kun present his skills and status The end result, felt like it becah

Skills are formed from the power of the soul So then, what happens when the power of the soul is suddenly lost? Well, when the power that comprises the soul is abruptly lost, the soul obviously collapses Sensei sacrificed her own soul, so that she could hold together Natsume-kun’s soul which would otherwise have collapsed Then for sensei’s soul, it was ether Because of that, even I’ve taken soainst Kuro, I had wanted to avoid wasting energy as much as possible too Well, this time it couldn’t be avoided However, I cannot allow sensei to take the saod it wasuselessly wasted a bit of energy, but in sensei’s case, her soul has taken an enor one more time, I don’t have any confidence that I can prevent a collapse again

I have to control Natsume-kun’s activities as well If I continue to just let hiood will coinally I had intended to siht

Translation notes:

“Presentation” is a skill that comes with the Ruler of Charity title – see chapter 163 It’s “presentation” as in “to present so to someone”
