There's another manga with a similar premise but the MC is so traumatize that he doesn't realize he's struggled so hard to stsy alive that he became godlike. He's more depressing but the vibe is so much better than this. Man accidentally became a streamer

A few hours to harvest ten stones covers expenses for a week? Sure there has to be some hazard incentives here, but for someone strong/skilled enough to hunt, that's crazy money.

Like, if you can get even one stone per day on the "leisure activity" top floors, you're pretty much set.

Corporate Slave Swordmaster! aka Overpowered and Underpaid: An OP Swordmaster Turns Hit Streamer.

Fun series, though it hasn't been updated on MD in months because the group scanlating kinda forgets to upload here (you can find it elsewhere, if you know where to look).

2 stones a day just to get by is quite lax for a decade old economy.

The premise feels very weak... if hes this strong and clearly willing to still go into the dungeon, and just 10 stones can easily cover his expenses for a week, what has he been doing for 10 years? I mean based on the title he was at one point "the strongest", i could understand if he retired due to trauama or something, but there was like no hesitation or anything to imply that he quit because of that. If you can easily cover your expenses with a days work, couldnt he just grind for a month, be set for the year, when funds start getting low go again?

at least there's no suggestive/romance tag

I love how in manga, terms like 'middle aged', 'old man' etc, means "anyone over 25".

"I'm so old, and forever single because who could ever love an old man like me?", bemoans the attractive 29-year-old.

lol considering JP men tend to live longer i'd think they wouldn't consider it 'middle aged' til like 45, but surprised there haven't been parodies like 'old hag' or so but i guess ppl are used to having 15 year olds as protags

I always find it weird how "The Strongest" people just up and vanish somehow. Like, people of high notoriety don't just vanish in modern day that easily and it doesn't look like he's taken any steps to make it that way. The dude's name and face should be a dead give away to anyone who is really a hard core fan of this stuff.

Like even the company that hired him would be bragging about how they had the Strongest Explorer on their team as a way to get incentives. You don't exist in a vacuum, Japan!

If I had a nickle for every manga/light novel that combined modern day with a dungeon-delving fantasy/streaming service I've seen, I'd have a quarter. Seems to be one of the up and coming genre now.

You're probably giving it more thought than the author.
