日本語 (ORIGINAL)
スバル自身が異世界人であり、かつ「死に戻り」という世界の因果律・オド・ラグナの改竄を受け付けない特異な権能(魔女因子の加護)を帯びているためです。彼の魂の観測記録は、世界の常識から独立しています。
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
Because Subaru is an otherworlder and bears Return by Death, a peculiar Authority (Witch Factor blessing) that refuses alterations to the world's causality and Od Lagna's records. His soul's observational register operates independently of the world's normal laws.
Translation Note:Crucial confirmation of Subaru's immunity to memory tampering due to his otherworldly origin and Witch Factor.
