Don´t know chief... it has a lot of things I don´t like in this type of stories:
- friendly separation: I´m here for the drama and revenge, also in this type of trope, the MC is always a bit of a simp for the former party.
- Random ass power up: He did not grew, he did not had a secret power or was shouldering the rest of the party at the cost of his own growth... nope, he got power because of deus ex machina, that makes the party´s decision of kicking him out the correct one, nothing is wrong with it... and if nothing is wrong with it... then the MC is not powerful, the skill is the powerful thing... worst than power fantasy.
- Making a powerful job look like is weak: a bit of time playing monster hunter will tell you that traps are... tricky, but really powerful. A trapper is not weak, is just that the skill curve is a bit harder... he either needs to do things solo or use the party to lure monsters to a minefield.
... Well is just the first chapter so it might be better, also is set in "present day" which I like so i want to give it a chance, just hope the dude is not too much of a simp for the former party... or that the party has a secret agenda, I would love a secret agenda
