Circle Zero's Otherworldly Hero Business - Ch. 16 - Lovely

[Jet]

MC seems kinda naive. What's with this political game? Why rejoice? The whole bunch of ppl try their best to murder her... They even succeded actually lol. Well, I realize, it's a manga and she won't outright die no matter what, but in reality, that assassin maid could just go report back and regroup to attack with more ppl next night. Trusting a person, who tried to kill you in cold blood is absurd. Fighting folks, who strive to end your life with words is a certain way to lose it asap.

I wonder how the MC is going to maneuver his way out of being forced to marry another male after only shortly being a female in his new life
By the way I hope he succeeds because I hate manga where the MC starts out as a male gets turned female then ends up with another male in the end just because he's a female now.

His moralizing to Pasta is bullshit. Who wouldn't place their family's lives first?

What a marvelous name for a chapter.

"Lovely"

@Aix That's the point though, he is saying that her morals are most likely based on some sense of equality. The fact that she put her family first and thought less of another's family means that she didn't have any morals because she didn't believe in equality, which led to a lack of empathy. Thus, leads to the logic of your words, "Who wouldn't place their family's lives first?", meaning that "it's either you or me".

This is probably the biggest redpill in the story. It parallels with feminism and many other things. They do not want equality, as their actions prove they do not see things as equals. Thus, there is no "getting along" with them. It becomes a state of all out war. "Kill or be killed", this is the mentality when people are willing to throw morality out of the window for the sake of "it's me or mine".

We see this happening in society today. People use to try to be reasonable. Yet due to feminists leading the charge of this idea of "equality", they only expose their true nature of not wanting equality. This has led to many not caring about "moral" or others, because their only concern now is themselves or their family. "The love of many, has grown cold".

@Randomguy01, I do know yours is an old comment, but may I call your attention to a point in your sentence, please?
I do agree with your argument. I do agree there are many who call themselves as "rightful allies of justice" but end up making mistakes and betraying their own morals or ideas.
I don't know if it's just your way of expression or if I read too much in your lines, but it seems you are against feminism, or the people behind it. You are free to think that, however, let's not declare ALL feminists are "men destroyers". There are radicals everywhere, every organisation and every community are prone to have those kind of who take things "too far away", as well as there are reasonable, wise, or at least chill guys that are open to stop and hear the other side.
Also, feminists aren't the ones who lead the "equality" concept. If we research history it began with the elite (women AND men) influenced by Marx ideas, which in turn influenced workers to go all in for their rights. Even if you had mean "gender equality", yeah, they (feminists) may be the ones who got the world view, but this concept has been under many flags, under many protests of outcasts. We can recall the Marx situation, everyone got fired up after that, not only workers. Not only feminists rised up, the whole package of people feeling discriminated started to use equality in their speaks.
So, I really don't care if you are against them. Please, try to avoid put the blame on a group.
You may argue to me "Yeah, so what do you think about those radical islamic groups like Taliban and Islamic State", and I'll still tell you once again: do not put labels.
There are environment circumstances, economy and politics variables, and especially, PEOPLE. There are truly seekers of equality, as contradictory as you may think this concept is. Sometimes I get confused by it too. Sometimes I think it's worthless. But not impossible.
