Chapter 35 – Making Everybody into Pets?

「Im, im, im, impossible…… t, t, t, that can’t be true……!」

「It’s on you if you believe it or not」

「Hi, hii! Do, don’t comeeee!」

When I approach, Light turns around and tries to run away.

But, he just wriggles and swims in the sky, unable to move from the spot.

「You can’t run away? After all, you are floating only thanks to my flight magic」

「Wh, what do you mean? s.h.i.+t, transfer magic……! Transfer magic! U!? Why it doesn’t invoke!?」

「I told you, right? That I have〈Pinnacle of Exortion〉, a superior rank of your〈Steal〉」

「Y, you didn’t……」

「I have already taken away all of your skills」

Light opens his eyes wide in shock.

Nevertheless, it seems like the reality still didn’t hit him as he extends his hand towards me and shouts.

「〈Steal〉! 〈Steal〉! 〈Steal〉!」

However, no matter how hard he shouts, he can no longer use his skills.

「R, r, return them baaaack! Please! No, I beg you! Return them back to me pleaaaase!」

I reject Light’s desperate cries.

「No way」

No way I’m returning them.

「Please, I beg of you! Somehow, somehoooow!」

「Rather, in the first place. Did you think that I will forgive you just because you stole some skills? I know of all the evil deeds you have done until now, you know? 」

「……!?」

Light’s cheeks become stiff.

I say with a smiling face.

「I always wanted to use it once~〈Pinnacle of Torture〉skill」

Maa, there’s no need for confession, though.

「Hi, hiiiiiiiii!」

「Ah―――――――――――――――――――――――――――!!!!」

「I have decided to become a temporary Emperor of this country, the name’s Karuna. Best regards」

I sit on the throne and casually inform the gathered people.

「T, to think he would defeat that Emperor……」

「Un, unbelievable……」

The high-ranked officials and military officers of this country mutter all kinds of things.

They all have pale faces.

They are extremely scared of me.

Maa, it’s understandable.

The previous Emperor was a fellow like that, after all.

「…… Ahiyahiya…… ahiya…… Ogres…… in…… inside me…… hiyawa……」

By the way, the previous Emperor has been rolling at my feet and groaning since a while ago.

This fellow who had all his skills stolen is now just an ordinary powerless person. Ah, right, right, I should return the skills to their original owners later~

「Just what did you do?」
