326 – Failing to be awarded “Worst Gaot , but she sure did interfere in a big way Well, frouess it wouldn’t have been too interesting if things had continued as they were So this result is within expectations It’s within expectations, but it’s not like it doesn’t piss onna punch you now! I’ll punch you!” – if someone said that to you, took a stance and then actually hit you, well, obviously it would hurt and piss you off wouldn’t it
It would have been ideal for me to be able to take secret manoeuvres behind the scenes and achieve results directly Well, in short, it would be my win if I could s The System would have already collapsed by the time people had noticed, but well, in the afterh the world and the Goddess would be saved instead Froe it would be an outrageous disaster that occured without any sort of advance warning, but for me that would be the easiest as there’d be no opposition
However, would D actually allow such a situation? No chance That was a rhetorical question Consider this as a game where the Last Boss perforet any hints or realise that so and then suddenly it becoive a hint that “So secret manoeuvres! You better prevent that else it’d be bad!” That way the protagonists could rise up to crush the Last Boss’s plans! No matter how you look at it, if a scenario is created with a ti in an unrelated area you’ll quickly reach Gaa things that ould obviously be easier Why the heck should you go out of your way to give hints to a potential antagonist? It’s obviously better to keep quiet and perfore the villain
In addition, even if this world has status values and other game-like elements it’s still reality So, there’s no need to actually treat it like a gaht? Secret manoeuvres, secret manoeuvres Muhaha, by the time it’s noticed it’s already too late!
Well, that’s what I’d wanted to do at least This world is no gaa a nuisance to others As such, the conditions are fulfilled for this to be a viable gaame’s Last Boss, then who are the powers that are hostile to me? Firstly, the pope The pope will take action for the sake of the people and especially for the hueration to call hi that I a harm upon the people, he will certainly be hostile to me It would be futile to try to persuade hi herself admitted that mentally he is a monster – it’s impossible that he would lose his nerve Even an oldstubborn would be more likely to listen
What’s troublesome about the pope, in addition to the fact that he’ll absolutely be hostile, is that he has one of the Ruler skills – Temperance In the System’s hidden er the collapse of the System With how I am now, it’s not like I couldn’t force open that key with brute strength However, it’s also the case that I can’t predict what downsides there would be that if I did that Therefore, if I want to play it safe, then I want to gain control over all the Ruler Authorities Considering that one of those is in eneain the Ruler Authority of Temperance, I either have to persuade the pope to hand it over, or otherwise I have to eli, since it’ll be impossible to persuade him, well, that settles the pope’s future
The other one ill certainly take a hostile stance, is Balto Until now, he has been serving as the De’s aide all this ti himself to the bone for the sake of the demons Their course of action has been different, but he has sonar who likewise struggled hard for the sake of the de because he had determined that it was the best option for the de hostile to the absolute threat that was the De, he simply accommodated her so that the de that the existence of the des in the balance, he would likely resolve hi that After all, this is the same Balto who o to ith the hureat casualties and survive, rather than challenge the Dee hole in his stoht be a loser but he’ll likely be hostile to ainst the wishes of the Goddess who is the person we’re trying to save Since Kuro is only living for the sake of that Goddess, it shouldn’t be possible for hiainst the Goddess’s desires
Hrmm That’s true The trickiest proble to all these lengths to save the Goddess, the Goddess is disregarding herself for the sake of hu to save, doesn’t wish to be saved In addition, theto try to save her is the ainst the Goddess’s will Naturally, our little Goddess is not best pleased
To bystanders, e are trying to do would likely be considered evil However, we’re going to do it anyway After all, that’s what the De has decided that even if it will turn the entire world against her, that even if the person she saves will resent her, that she’ll do it anyway I felt that it would be nice to be the ally of such a Deardless of what D stirred up, regardless of who beca a bitat hhhh! Da to do about this?

“I’onna punch you now!” – possibly a reference to a TV drama called “School Wars”
