The art is nice, especially with that vixen princess's expressions, and his reasoning is decent, so I'll keep reading, for now.

However, the single point of failure is such an annoying trope as it trivializes what should otherwise be an interesting dilemma for those close to him, but with responsibilities and positions significantly different...

I feel like I've seen that same NTR plot in a lot of betrayed storylines now lmao. I was kinda laughing at how predictably common that was.

How is it saying he is "unaware" in the synposis, when he seems pretty aware of how overpowered his blessings are, heck he even knew he'd flood the market by selling those bars, if he was really one of those obnoxiously oblivious mcs, he'd just sell them without thinking it's unusual and it's eventually come back to bite him in form of some noble

We are so flooded with manga nowadays, it's difficult to find something original. But that is fine, the most important part is execution, a manga can be cliche but well done and fun to read.

To be honest, this MC seems very, very boring and standard and uninteresting. I'm MUCH more interested in the princess.

Here I'm hoping that this is actually a manga where the princess seduces the MC and is the actual "shadow" protagonist of the story. I can hope, right? :smugnako:

The same lackluster, cringy betrayal start but characters don't seem too exaggerated. Also, girl with missing leg and a blacksmith? you can definitely tell he's gonna craft a prosthetic for her.

nvm just checked chapter 2, mf just slammed the girl with his hammer and magically healed her and cured her of all ailments. This shit is just another fantasy shit skill slop

OK. I get grief can make you do crazy things but the MC has been wielding Mjolnir since he was a child how the hell do you not notice your fiance doing that?
Because he seems to be the workaholic type, who only bothers with his own work and nothing else, aka., like a typical Japanese office drone.

I mean, if you leave your fiancee alone just after her father died with the excuse that you had to manage the store to stop it from collapsing, then you seriously have some issues.

How much time per day would it have taken to manage the store realistically. He could have easily went and looked after his fiancee after store closing hours. Is he saying that he also gave-up his night and sleep to save the store? That's kind-off unrealistic in this Medieval setting.

Plus, it's standard in many regions to close down the store for a few days if the Owner of the store had expired even if it's in financial crisis.

And if you don't want to waste time by not even taking part in mourning and supporting your fiancee through her grief just because of work, then it's more of a skill issue than something else.

Woe is me, the chosen one of a long line of chosen ones. All of my deeds are completely unrecognized by the people in my immediate orbit despite everyone else seeing the obvious. Even when I teleport in a completely random fashion, I plop in front of a non-human slave needing the kind of saving that lines up with my DIVINE ABILITY. How ever shall I continue in this difficult life when turning pebbles into gold comes with the burden of not doing it too much?

...I guess I'll save the world while women attack my penis!

Indeed is clichè, but well, art is very good, also seems edgy, the author drew easily parts of the body missing without any censorship, so follow. (y)

i got catfished by the cover, leaving aside the cliche plot i think is funny how many authors take names from other mythos and put it into theyr stories, the lengendary mjornir, thor`s hammer is now a magical mackguffin that create/alter/destroy anything and looks like a toy hammer. i`ll just keep "reading" to see the desing of the other female characters.

Oh its the "I was making sure everything worked right, then they fired me, now I'll go be OP and appreciated somewhere else" plotline.
Well hopefully it is that an not a "i'm a socially inept doormat so whoever pulls my strings i will do their bidding" like a certain other crafting isekai.

Checked the raws, his powers are absolutely ridiculous. Can restore lost limbs, create multiple town houses in 3 minutes straight. Can restore cursed as fuck equipment in 10 seconds.

Also as per isekai tradition, whatever he touches turns in to a busty babe. Literally. Save a small slave girl? A 12/10 cat girl the next morning. Cleansed a cursed sword? Guess what, it had a 12/10 ghost babe in it.

Author might have lost sight of what is plausable or not lol.

For fucks sake man. Okay, how long until he gets an assassin maid and an egg that hatches into a dragon that turns into a girl and a puppy that turns out to be fenris and the legendary witch/female wizard turns up alongside the sword maiden/supreme sword/heavenly blade/etc female heroine and they all want this dick which he might not even be aware he has and etc etc etc.

Like just fuck off author. Translators why waste the time to translate this, what little of it is good and interesting is marred by shit you can see coming a mile away
