Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka?
242 Fool's Devotion
Where we got off on the transfer, it's a vast space.
Everything shines pale at your feet, and the horizon gives you the illusion of interfacing with the sky and going on everywhere.
Inside such an infinite space is filled with huge magical ceremonies depicting geometry.
And countless little spiders who nest such sorcery ceremonies as if they were nesting threads.
It's my split.
The split is hacking the system here.
Here, at the heart of this world, at the centre of the system, in this land where the goddess is sealed.
The center of the magic ceremony, there, there was the goddess.
There's a goddess who's losing half her body and is about to blend into half the space.
From its mouth, like a curse, the system message is constantly spinning.
"Proficiency reached a certain level"
"Experience reached constant"
"Proficiency reached a certain level"
………
Even though there is only one mouth, the voice is heard overlapping.
I'm so used to hearing voices that I don't like them before I still deify them.
Heavenly Voice (tentative) and what I was calling it.
You didn't even make a mistake because you were the voice of the goddess.
I approach the goddess who keeps reading out messages with a vain look.
And insert the knife into its remaining upper body.
"Huh!"
The goddess gives a distressed look.
But I move my screwed hands and pierce the goddess's body without that.
'Error. Confirm unexpected external access. We're moving on to elimination.'
The anguish disappears from the look of the goddess, and at the same time the pain runs in my hand.
Ignore.
Don't worry about the pain and start hacking as you go.
Goddess's body cramps fine.
The goddess is at the heart of a system rooted in this world.
It interferes directly there and intervenes temporarily in the system.
Intervention is exactly the effect of the Ruler Skill that is now activated.
The activator and the person who is eligible for the skill.
Start interfering with both sides from a major source called the system.
The activator, it goes without saying, Doctor.
The target audience is Natsume-kun.
The effect of skills is that they dedicate the power of almost all souls to the system, including skills, status, and other skill points.
But this effect is not meant to be used by others.
The teacher is forced to alter it and exercise it on others.
If you do something that unscrupulous, the burden on skill users is enormous.
Because in the first place, activating this skill is almost no different than killing yourself.
Inhibits the activation of skills via the system.
Still, it's more than half active and it's working.
Natsume-kun lost his skills and his status dropped dramatically.
I don't care about that.
The problem is, Doctor.
Due to the activation of murky skills, the teacher's own skills have also disappeared due to recoil.
If that's all, I'm still going as far as the teacher's soul is about to collapse because I'm protecting Natsume-kun's soul.
I can't say four or five.
They manage to connect and restore the collapsed teacher's soul.
I managed to prevent the collapse.
It didn't go as far as no damage to the boulder.
Take a breath and pull your hand out of the Goddess's body.
The goddess erased the wound in an instant and began to whine the system message again as if nothing had happened.
Not at all.
What a lame thing to do.
If I didn't intervene, my soul would have collapsed and died.
Moreover, the collapse of the soul means that it cannot even be reborn.
Complete death.
Really, I'm impotent.
Watch the teachers over the split.
Natsume-kun, whose skills are erased and wolfed.
Yamada, who can't swallow things and is flabbergasted.
And a teacher who tells Natsume-kun by putting up his best void while wearing it down.
"This world is not yours. I suggest you reflect on this in your period and from now on live as a normal person. There's nothing good about taking skills and getting stronger..."
Hmm?
You deny taking skills?
Why is that?
I doubt it, but I don't know the answer.
I don't feel refreshed, like my little bone has been stabbed in the throat.
Well, fine.
Either way, Doctor, this time the teacher's behavior will be in vain.
Taking your skills away from Natsume-kun doesn't end up the same.
Natsume-kun can't possibly reflect, and most importantly, the teacher's skills are not complete.
No matter how many skills you erase, you end up halfway through the results because you used them differently than you would have used them for.
Natsume-kun's disappeared skills, the power of the soul that was used for that skill, because the majority of them still remain in Natsume-kun.
Skills are those that specifically make the power of the soul easy to use and shape.
Something that customizes the power of the soul that cannot be used as it is so that it is easy to handle with the power of the system.
In other words, as long as the power of the soul remains, it is also possible to acquire another skill.
Because what is easy to understand about a skill point is that it only reveals the surplus that can be used with the power of that soul.
Natsume-kun did lose his skills.
But most of that energy remains in your possession.
Then it's visible to change shape and get back to normal.
What the teacher did was just make Natsume-kun stop his leg for a little while.
I can't imagine crazy Natsume-kun stopping for something like this, let alone revamping.
Humans are not such noble creatures.
View the goddess.
With a teacher, with a goddess, why would I give my life for such a waste?
Scum is scum.
I can't be saved anywhere I go.
How can you not know that?
And how can you sacrifice yourself to save such a thing?
I don't understand.
Uh, irritating.
What do you think your life is?
Isn't desperate and scratching alive the right way to look as an organism?
Do it all the way to the dob and throw your life away.
I'm extra angry because that's what I do with all the guys I admit, too.
So I'm gonna ruin it all.
The devotion of the goddess, the black troubles, the readiness of the demon king, the salvation of the teacher.
I'll turn it all upside down and break it all together.
The world?
I don't know.
If you're going to perish, you can perish.
I save those whom I have admitted more than such.
The teacher activated the Devotional Skills.
The effect, as the name suggests.
To give to the world the power of the soul that is making up its own skills.
The teacher tried to force Natsume-kun to dedicate his skills and stats.
The result was a half-success, a half-failure.
Skills are made of the power of the soul.
And what happens if you suddenly lose the power of your soul?
Well, if the powers that make up your soul suddenly disappear, it's decided to collapse.
The teacher connected Natsume-kun's soul, which was supposed to collapse, at the expense of his own.
I stopped the teacher's soul this time.
Thanks to you, the damage came to me, too.
Ah.
I wanted to avoid wasting energy as much as possible in preparation for the battle against black.
Well, I can't help this one.
But don't let the teacher do the same thing again.
I'm done feeling like I wasted a little energy because I'm God's me, but my teacher's soul is badly damaged.
If we do the same thing again, we're not sure we can stop the collapse this time.
Natsume-kun's movements must also be controlled.
If I let it go wild like this, it wouldn't be a lot of trouble anyway.
All right.
I made up my mind.
If it was true, I would've just put surveillance on him, but let's gut him.
