What skill would this be?

Text 1:

- Emergency Protection (70 points)
Description: Protects the target once from a fatal blow. (Disposable) (Purchase limit 0/3)

Text 2:

[Acquired False Evil Points: 200 pts! (The Savior of Female Students)]

“Ha…it’s really tough.”

After a while, when the False Evil points appeared in front of me, my tension was relieved at once, then I sighed and tried to get up…

Notice! [Emergency Protection skill is automatically used!]

“…What?”

Target: Irina Philliard’s 12 o’clock Curse [Details: The 12 o’clock curse sentences the target to inevitable death at 12 o’clock midnight the day after the spell is cast. This devastating curse can only be used once a year, and the person who activated the curse suffers from mana exhaustion for 1 year.]

I almost passed out when I saw the system window that popped up in front of me.

Apparently, I have a lot of work left to do in the future.

Text 3:

“…Ugh.”

Ferloche, who felt the sensation of Frey’s neck being snapped with her own hands, trembled with the guilt of having committed murder, and soon clasped her hands together and prayed in silence.

“Lord Sun God, please be content with the offering of my humble soul for violating your doctrine… and I beseech you to forgive the Empire and Frey…”

Having thus finished her prayer, Ferloche quietly placed her hands on Frey’s neck and muttered.

“…He, too, was once a kind man.”

Notice! [❰Emergency Protection❱ skill automatically used!] Target: Ferloche Astellade’s strength enhanced by the ❰Blessing of the Sun God❱ [Details: The ❰Blessing of the Sun God❱ is a legendary blessing granted only to the Saintess by the Son God, boasting devastating 1:1 capability. The beings who can resist or overcome this blessing are limited only to the Demon King and Star Hero wearing the awakened Hero’s Armament.]

I was knocked out for a while, but as soon as the system window appeared in front of my eyes, I came back to my senses and witnessed Ferloche grabbing her own neck and mumbling something with a sorrowful expression.

“I hope in your next life… you remain your old pure self till the end…”

“Yes! Actually, I’m a woman!!”

“Oh God!!”

I hastily exclaimed.

“…Why didn’t you die?”

What type of abilite would Emergency Protection be?

Manipulation of fate, causality, or what?

Sounds like at least Damage Reduction using the first text, but it also seems to negate damage from instant-death skills so maybe a resistance to Death Manipulation (using your second text)? For the third one, doesn't really seem like anything different from it's usual Damage Reduction self.

But in the third one, didn't he break his neck, killing him?

I don't think the first scan is limited to damage reduction since there are several life-threatening attacks, such as the death manipulation of the second scan.

Oh yeah, not saying it's just Damage Reduction, a skill can contain multiple abilities defined on the site (like Gojo's Limitless counts as Spatial Manipulation, Flight, Damage Boost, etc). I just think Damage Reduction is the main thing looking at the description of the skill but depending on more examples, you can add more abilities. Since it can heal his neck, maybe a form of Limited Healing too?

Perhaps it would be better to add the benefits that Protection provides, instead of reducing it to a single ability that could be an NFL skill in battle?

The second scan appears to grant resistance to curses and death manipulation, while the third seems to offer healing and resurrection, though I could be wrong.

If you make a profile, you could have it like this (some examples I've seen):

Abilities:

• Emergency Protection (Protects the target once from a fatal blow. (Disposable)):
  • Damage Reduction (Reasoning)
  • Limited Healing (Reasoning)

Resistances (Typically resistances has their own tabber):

• Curse Manipulation (Emergency Protection was shown to block a death curse)
• Death Manipulation (Emergency Protection was shown to block a death curse)

Then just add any additional abilities fitting the skill into it. If you're worried about it being NLF, that's what the reasoning/explanation/scan of the skill/feat is supposed to do, so it'll be dependent on how well you describe it.
