nah, that's bs, that's not mc fault, nobles, politicians, and the rich, are always playing those games to drag others down, because the top doesn't have enough places for everyone.
People in this comment section is so immature and can only see the surface. Guess it was expected from isekai crowd who thinks the entire world goues around thier protagonist and never tried to understand other peoples POV and MC's "kindheartedness" is seen as weakness lmao. go watch a braindead show like Solo leveling or something.
I'm sure these are also the people who say weird shit and spill their spaghettis IRL yet they judge the girl who was literally a victim of this guy and says she acts too much based on her emotions lmao.
What an annoying chapter. For the length of the whole chapter I was just waiting for Leold to tell Erina to keep her forked tongue behind her teeth. But of course the previous chapter, where Leold was unable to lift a finger to defend the saintess, already revealed he's lacking the kind of spirit you need to confront hostile people. He's feeling far too deeply Leold's past sins. They aren't his. He should just look at them purely objectively, with zero conscience since they weren't his misdeeds. Yet this scene looked 100% like Sendou Makoto himself would have been responsible. I have said before that he can't escape the consequences since he just happens to have Leold's body and identity now, but he doesn't need to get emotional about it, no more than a man falsely accused and sent to a prison would feel responsible for the crime someone else did.
This is too stupid, nothing she says is his fault, this is typical japanese mentality of many mangas where the actions of others are somehow "magically" the fault of someone that had absolutely no agency over.
"oh, you did not say hi to her, so she went and killed her family, ITS YOUR FAULTTTTTTT" and the meek beta moron gets all sad and think it's his fault.
It's an idiotic trope and i hate it, i'm skipping pages like crazy
