Everyone calling him an "old man", because he's ONLY 38y old is seriously pissing me off. Dunno if it's a translation thing, or japanese thing. Either this is a very young author, or a person with inferity complex about being in their 30's-40's. Seriously that's not old, and everyone calling him that to his face seems like huge disrespect towards any stranger.
Even if the original japanese word is "Ojii-san", doesn't suit at all. Especially japanese people, at least on average look very good for their age and they age slowly, at least by their appearance.

Imposing yourself onto other is one of the thing I don't really get about story like this. Sure you are glad to be rescued but why do you want to be their subordinate to bother them more?

The real answer is "cuz beard" like most of those Ojii-san chara are like really old with wrinkles or a bearded person (heavy or light doesn't matter).
Just look at any "old man" character being just a "dad age" and doesn't really get to the point of the old "grandpa age".
Maybe cuz there is no word to describe a person in that group of age, maybe adult but it just felt weird, not entirely correct and not widely used

  1. Re-read the story; he effected persistent domination, but did so badly.
  2. (&3) For multiple reasons, he has the element of surprise, and he can repeat the trick.
1. You're missing the point. What does confessing have to do with stopping the assault? And I know that the domination persists, but there are too many unknowns that you can't really rely on the spell not breaking.
2. Why risk it? Safety first. Also, he has limited MP that he may not be able to use the skill again.

  1. No, you're willfully missing the point. After stopping the assault, he basically just sent the leader skipping away.
  2. No, safety is not first. Many things come before safety. Trying to save face, you're making yourself look awful.

1. I said it comes after. We're not in disagreement then, but you seem to want to misunderstand me.
2. Safety is first. Nothing matters if you're dead yourself.

  1. No, you respond pathetically to the critiques of other people who were objecting to his failure to do more than to have the lead rapist skip away. Now you want to skip away from your inadequacy.
  2. That view is sociopathic and otherwise irrational. What we leave after our deaths matters, and a life that truly minimized the routine chance of death would be something like that of a shut-in.

A promising 1st chapter. Then chapter 2 just treads on the same old muddy road that most JP MCs in fantasy setting commit.

Thanks for the TL!

To everyone complaining that he let the rapists go without killing them, would you have the mental fortitude to kill three people like that when you've never harmed another human being in your life up until then? I'd be seriously concerned if you could, honestly. I know I wouldn't be able to pull the proverbial trigger like that. It's so easy to sit back in your chair and scoff while saying you would have simply just killed the person, but there's really no such thing as "simply killing" someone. Not unless you're so completely devoid of all morals, ethics, empathy, and everything else that makes you human that you can kill someone without a second thought.

This is a world where modern governments and laws are still intact. This middle-aged former businessman isn't suddenly going to become the judge, jury, and executioner out of nowhere and start killing everyone he doesn't like.
