@amberloss objectively speaking the gods of the world want the hero to be a dumb idiot who plays along, nods his head when told he's a dumb idiot, doesn't investigate or doubt people until their treachery is obvious, lets people die because his "friends" say they are bad, and in general lets the world come to the brink of destruction because it's better to let millions die to try to save the person who keeps slapping you who is apparently your "friend".
The protagonist thinks this is bullshit and does horrific underhand stuff to succeed because this world is a trash manga designed as a parody rather than a serious simulation of a world. Also he's crazy after being stuck in a groundhog loop three times with near unfettered power.
