243 Guys with a screw loose are such

Sensei, Yamada-kun and the rest have returned back to the academy. Natsume-kun is seized, and the assassins have been arrested by the other teachers who came rushing. I had appeared before them and used my Evil Eye to weaken them, so the teachers caught them easily. Also, although it had worried me the Earth Drake didnt rampage in the end, and was retrieved in its cage to the teachers camp. It seemed quite nervous though. I wonder whats with that Earth Drake.

Finally, Natsume-kun has been confined to his own room. Even though he had caused a problem, Natsume-kun is still the prince of a foreign country. Its not like they can just punish him. Well, its not like that they absolutely cannot punish him either though. Before long, he will definitely be punished. Before that, I gotta do something.

I teleport to Natsume-kuns place.

Shit! Dont think its over yet! This world is mine! Me, me only, the world exists for me only! Ill never accept an ending like this! Never! Until everything is in my hands, its not gonna end! That elf bitch! Ill definitely get revenge! No mercy, absolutely no mercy! Someday Ill steal everything she has! Just like how she stole from me! Just you wait! Everything that she cares about, Im gonna demolish it all! On top of that Im gonna rape that fucking bitch senseless while laughing at her crying face! Just you wait! Im gonna take back this world!

Woah. Mind if I leave? What, is, going, on? Hes completely lost it, yup. Somehow, I feel like I want to return while pretending that Ive not seen anything. At this rate, he seems motivated enough to acquire the Seven Deadly Sins skills without me doing anything ya know.

Ugh. I guess I cant just do that either. If I neglect this it could become risky. Umm, maybe instead of something risky, something risqu?

Okay. Thats enough escaping from reality.

I mean, Im right beside him and hes not even noticing me. Its like he cant even see various things around him any more huh. Well, thats handy for me though.

Slowly slowly I bind him with threads. Then I force him to turn around to face me and, bingo, activate Evil Eyes. Steal his consciousness.

The next thing I do is bring out a tiny clone, the size of a fingertip. This, I grind into Natsume-kuns earhole. Natsume-kuns body twitches in convulsions but I ignore it. Hes fine, hes fine. Hes not going to die. Im merely installing something that works a bit like a radio antenna okay. If he can obey the radio waves itll be wonderful. A degenerate life awaits. Done!

I confirm that the clone has properly reached his brain, then heal up Natsume-kuns ear. Well, I had to punch through various bits of his ear to reach the brain you know. To actually go out of my way to heal him up, Im so nice.

Now then, with this Natsume-kun has basically become my puppet. Its not like I cant dominate him completely, but in that case the development of his soul will slow. Instead, it would be better to limit myself to just guiding his thoughts somewhat. Though in an emergency I wont restrict myself that much. Oops, I should erase his memory of me as well. Click, clack, done.

For the duration of his confinement Ill push him towards acquiring skills. At this rate, Greed seems gettable. If all goes well then Lust too. Then Im as good as done. Before the Ruler authority is properly established, it is possible for me to intercept and usurp it. What Ive been able to take command of so far are Pride, Sloth and Patience the Ruler skills I originally held, and then, Envy that the vampire girl has acquired and Wrath that ogre-kun has acquired.

Conversely, whats been taken command of by others are Temperance, Diligence, Charity and also Gluttony. I originally held Charity, but before I could interfere with the Ruler authority the next owner was quickly decided unfortunately, and to make matters worse Im currently unable to interfere because the Ruler authority has already been established. That next owner is sensei. The situation has turned into a real pain in the ass.

The ones yet untouched are Greed and Lust and then Humility, Kindness and Chastity huh. Ill have Natsume-kun work on Greed and Lust. Then I can throw him away. The problem is Humility, Kindness and Chastity I guess. It would be best if someone would pick them up, but theres no point if they get picked up and the Ruler authority is established. Its fine if it happens to someone like me in the old days who doesnt know how to establish the authority, but it would definitely be annoying if the acquirer is someone among the elves.

The safest scenario is if someone in my grasp acquires them though. For the vampire girl, theres no way she has the spirit of Humility in her. Kindness is a big no. For Chastity shes sort of on the right lines, but recently shes started having men waiting on her so it feels impossible. For Argnar, its hard to say if hes really in my grasp for a start, and even though hes lived a long life hes not really gotten that far either I guess. Even if I tell him to get a skill isnt it a bit too late? If only some highly talented kid who might comply with the requirements would fall into my hands

I sense the activation of magical power. It seems that the ones guarding the room have fainted. The door is opened slowly and cautiously.

The one who enters is a lone girl. A girl who looks a little bit like Yamada-kun. Well, I guess so. Even if its just half, shes still related by blood after all.

Her name, was Sue or something? Judging by her dangerous intent, shes come to assassinate Natsume-kun or similar I guess? This girl sure has quite a far out brother complex huh. Well, considering her target is someone who actually tried to kill her brother Yamada-kun, I guess she wouldnt just leave him alone.

Here we go. A highly talented girl who seems capable of getting a Ruler skill.

Who are you?

Imouto-chan turns towards me with a cautious look. Well then. How shall I prevail upon her?

Translation notes:

Maybe instead of something risky, something risqu? the original is a pun in Japanese too. A literal translation would be more like Maybe instead of something serious, something erotic?.

Shiro consistently refers to Sue as imouto-chan (kid sister) so Ive left it as is.
