[Constance Vigilance]

And from the Dungeon:

117: No matter how much I want revenge, I will never
order an underling "Leave him. He's mine!"

155: If I know of any heroes in the land, I will not
under any circumstances kill their mentors, teachers,
and/or best friends.

201: All giant serpents acting as gardians in
underground lakes will be fitted with sports goggles
to prevent eye injuries.

Ah well. Live and learn.
