A betrayed MC revenge story huh? It's fine I guess, the art is good too, I initially planned to keep an eye for future chapters until I read the Web Novel

The MC is spineless af, even after he's betrayed and targeted to be killed, this guy still refuses to man up and kill any of them, there's someone commented and it exactly summarizes what's happened to the story I quote
Had a great start but it has really degraded as more chapters has been translated.

The MC, despite living in a world where life is Cheaper than dirt doesn't have the guts to kill, despite the fact that humans keep trying to kill the MC, he doesn't want to kill any humans and even told his subordinate not to kill them despite the fact that the enemy has made up their mind to kill them.

because of this "Do not kill any humans crap" the decision making of the MC has really become really s*upid to the point that it makes him a questionable "leader". You would wonder what is the point of the Author making an MC like this, maybe because the author is a gullible person and think the world is just sunshine and rainbows.

How could you lead a kingdom in a medieval world by being such "It's bad to kill humans even if they are trying everyday to kill us (lol) " person?

It's like the author is making his novel the same like Overlord, but with a gutless, spineless MC. I really do hope this would change, but I don't see that coming anytime soon since the author can't read this review

Curiosity kills the cat I guess, if I didn't try to read the wn then I probably give this 9/10, but for now, 7/10 is enough

Any hope that author changed the plot in the manga from wn?

I'm pretty sure that he won't exact vengeance on the people that had betrayed him.

I really hope mangas stop having revenge and vengeance in there summaries when that is not what the MC is going to be doing for most of the story.

I’m excited to see where this one is going. The thief being OP is a nice concept, and already nigh unstoppable. Can’t wait for the revenge arc. The chapters are pretty long too so I have high hopes for this one.

I would have to disagree. The no kill rule is fine, as long as the fate is worse then death. Which in this case...


The MC steals all the powers and skills of the hero and his party, turning them into ordinary people. He then returns them back to the human kingdom, the heroes distraught and humiliated over the total loss of their powers. The only one spared was the healer, who learned the truth of what happened.

I guess that's works too.... actually no, it's just another rage bait betrayal story with infuriating way to make the mc VERY gutless type of person, in a world setting where life is cheaper than dirt, mc refuse to do what is necessary, It's not realistic, it's fantasy fiction sure, but that's not how real people act

The story also similar to Overlord (aside the betrayal part), but with indecisive mc, so it's irritates me a lot, it's basically kid version dollar store Overlord

Anyway I'm just salty, I want my time back from reading the wn, I'm not saying it's bad to read it, the art is good, but the mc ohhh boy the mc, at least I'm not giving it a 5 or lower score

You're entitled with your opinion and so do mine, carry on
