"My boss sure is getting along with the one person who spent time with him while he was in constant agony with a very real chance of death constantly hanging over him, I better reprimand her! Who needs job security!" Seriously, I could have understood it if the Butler or anyone else tried to...

While I'm not the biggest fan of the pacing (it's a bit slow for my taste, but that's probably because I don't get a lot out of all the moments where they're just fawning over how cute the MC is), one thing that I really enjoy here are how people are presented. Even the assholes who you're meant...

@BloodySorcerer You also have to remember this is a story, so stakes and tension are very important for investment. There can be an issue of dramatic tension, I find it pretty arrogant of you to assert that because maybe it all makes sense, that someone who knows how it plays out is wrong to...

@Morose From what we saw in this chapter, that wouldn't explain the absence, notice that he returned back to the moment in time he left (as indicated by the uninterrupted conversation). It may come up as a plot point, but she's probably cheating on him either way.

@BloodySorcerer The letdown would be Granted, I haven't actually read the webnovel, but it just looked like you misunderstood what the 'letdown' seemed to be from what I could tell.

In fairness @Anitvenomz the argument wasn't that they should have died, but rather that the situation the children were in was created solely to have the MC engage in some 'moral slavery'. I disagree with the conclusion as I suspect the situation was contrived to accomplish two things, A: Let...

Is everyone here forgetting that 3 chapters ago the guy was going around basically confessing to his harem, getting all of them to think about him in that way? The harem plan has taken a life of its own, now the only thing left is for the MC to understand that he already has lots of people who...

Very satisfying aside from how the guy looks like he's going to start getting more forceful, but at least it doesn't look like he'll be working with Reika anymore (both because she was crossing one of his lines and how her attitude has started backfiring on her). Though it's good that it looks...

For a revenge fantasy where the protag had 3 people he wanted revenge on We sure have gone off the rails. I mean I thought he was motivated solely by revenge but after the first arc he's only pretended to be the Blade hero once, there's two people out there that helped create the hell he went...

@larcek Well from what I saw the rest of the class thought that he truly escaped the Isekai, as he left the classroom during the transport, didn't see him at the skill selection, and wasn't with them in the forest. To date people have only met him after he was well established and had things...

@Darth_Noox I am partially with you, him being made to stay out though does make sense as well when you've got foot in mouth syndrome that bad you're not really going to recover so the girl in question certainly needs her space. This is a situation that the girl shouldn't have been so critical...

Rico better not give the MC trouble, he was already almost killed and treated like an evil person for wanting sex...

Did he always have some kind of subjugation skill? Would have been nice to get a couple of pages inbetween the misunderstanding and whatever caused this, heck this chapter wasn't even 100% clear that it was a skill/system thing that effectively enslaved them because of how short it was, you're...

I just went through all of this and I want to say @KMoore there may have actually been something that he did do to cause her feelings. Recall that when she went to highschool he went to her school, he then also went to her house where she lives alone and if we assume that the images are canon...

Personally, I think some parts of this story are a bit weaker and more contrived, but given that it's a one-shot as part of an anthology with a a lot of the tropes and events predetermined, I'd rather focus on the emotional payoffs in this case, which I enjoyed that sweet feeling of payback. I...

@Mojo The entire premise of this little anthology of oneshots is specifically to invert a (seemingly) common scene/trope of Otome games by having it but resulting in a happy ending for the 'villainess'. Any story that doesn't have the annulment event be public wouldn't fit here anymore than a...

So @botodopo while I get where you're coming from, there's a few points that a lot of people are seeing that make the situation different to them. First of all is intent, the in the 1st story the guy intended to hurt the woman he loved in order to change her behavior, in this story the girl...

Just want to add my thoughts in with the others, @Vasqueztion I'd say the issue is that it was basically over-dramatized. The idea that he needed to fake breaking off the engagement (setting aside the public spectacle or the family stuff) to get her to be honest is pretty extreme. He was testing...

@Poulay It was mentioned in an earlier chapter, but he specifically checked his status and made his own way of seeing it have 3 digits because he thought that he might have had 102 or something (when it's really 1,002). He never checks anyone else with 3 digits because since the highest recorded...

@Dekunator I'm pretty sure the complaint was about it showing up here, not that it was made at all. If I'm playing a Mario game and at the end of a Level I'm suddenly playing Link in some Zelda game that's added on. I'd find this upsetting because even if it's a good Zelda game, if I don't want...
