Chapter 35: Tauro's Status
After the match with the Prime Minister, the nobles who had been watching the game took their seats and began to play against each other, with Tauro giving token advice to each seat.
Reversi is a game for passing time, it should be enjoyed.
Tauro thought and he was not wrong.
After visiting all the seats, he returned to Garfish and the others.
“I'm tired."
Tauro let out a weak cry to the group.
"I couldn't tell you earlier, but you were amazing. Giving away the handicap in the first half of all three games, then turning it over in the last half and finally bringing the game to a draw with room to spare!"
“I was amazed."

Garfish said, as if he was letting out something that had been building up.
Paul was standing beside him, giving a big speech.
It seems that he was holding back because he couldn't rejoice or praise Tauro in front of the Prime Minister.
“No, you're getting it all wrong. The Prime Minister learned his lesson in the first two games and corrected himself in the third, so it was a draw. We'll see what happens the next time we play."
Tauro gave a tired laugh.
Anyway, I've saved face.
"Boy, it was Satou-san, wasn't it?"
When he turned around, he saw the Prime Minister standing there.
“I'm sorry I didn't notice...Yes, but please do not call me that. I'm afraid we're too different in status."
Tauro bowed his head reverently.
“I'm sorry for testing you earlier. This game is so simple that it interestingly brings out the character of the player. I had only been playing for a few days, but I was getting carried away. When Satou showed me the difference in our abilities, I realized how foolish I was."

The Prime Minister looked remorseful, apparently not angry that he had lost.
“No Sir, you were very strong and your persistence in correcting the third game and others was admirable. I don't know if I can beat you next time..."
"Oh, I see. I did feel that I had a good response in the third game.”
The Prime Minister laughed out loud, as if he was really happy.
“By the way..."
The Prime Minister's expression became calm as he stopped laughing.
“The reason why I called you here at such short notice, instead of Count Elaino, was so that I could judge you on behalf of someone else..."
"Judge?"
Did he mean the many appraisals he received when he entered the room?
“One of my skills is S-appraisal, so I'm sure I'm a good judge of character. But, Satou, it doesn't seem to work on you. For a moment, I could see your abilities, but then they disappeared. And the next moment, it was just ordinary abilities. If I'm not mistaken, I've never seen anything like this before. I'm surprised."

"Huh."
Tauro's new ability, Appraisal Inhibition, not only prevented others from appraising him, but also allowed him to show false information even if he was unconscious.
“If you don't mind, in order for me to trust you and introduce you to someone, can you remove the powerful appraisal inhibition that deceives and surpasses my prized S-rank appraisal?”
He knew Tauro was using his ability!
Tauro felt sweat break out on his back.
“I see. Then, only to the Prime Minister..."
Tauro consciously removes the Appraisal Inhibition so he can be assessed only by the Prime Minister.
"...well, this is interesting."
It seems that he could appraise him.
“The basic stats are low and are those of a child, but your dexterity is rising with precision and other ability correlations. The ability that is known as “True Eye” is also interesting as it's linked to other skills like “Presence detection” and not just the ability to appraise things.”
Tauro felt as though he was naked.
“Most importantly your abilities should be that of a garbled skill, but if you increase your proficiency, your status should increase in proportion to it, but it doesn't.... I can only say that Satou's is just inexplicable."
Tauro, who hadn't heard about the increase in proficiency in his profession, wanted to jump for joy inside.
It meant that his efforts so far are not in vain and that he could increase his proficiency in unskilled professions if he worked hard enough.
In fact, he would like to ask more details, but the other party is the Prime Minister, so Tauro held back.

Thanks for the chapters
I’m a little unclear about the end. So, is the PM saying his garbled skill hasn’t been increasing his stats, but his other skills are increasing his stats?
mmm… i think it’s more like, he was expecting higher stats since satou had a garbled skill, but it seemed like his stats were surprisingly normal
