Dunno how he can trust that "merchant" (who is by action a scam artist rather than merchant). That "ally" could very well be compliant just as long as he smells money in him.

That said, MC really wasn't suited as an adventurer getting so easily seasick as well as walking nonchalantly on a clearly rotten pier. The teammates probably got fed up with the work needed to keep him alive. Maybe feeling like escorts instead of teammates is what gave them the idea of him being more suited as a lord.

Wow what a great party he had they bought him a piece of shit land as a farewell gift.
I'd just train an army to beat up those "heroes" instead of the demon lord.

I didn't understand the "test" the merchant did. "I sent you to a super expensive inn/brothel without letting you know, and because you paid I know you're not debauched"? Did he maybe mean broke? Because he wasn't broke before, but he just blew half of his severance pay in one night thanks to that merchant. And he basically is saying "I wanted to know if I could mooch off of you, I'll leave the moment I smell you're poor". And the MC is all "sure, you're a trustworthy guy I can use to rebuild this ruined territory".

It's one thing to have bad English, but when the TL is literally saying the opposite of what it's supposed to...

That must've been good service if it spent half your money that took you 6 years to get.

I hate it how the girl looked down on the mc. She got strong because of him in the first place.

What his friend did was just teasing him, she isn't actually an asshole, she'll probably felt lonely when they go on an adventure without the mc, also what a shit present that they give the mc, a land that is as good as stranded and a small amount of money where half of it could be gone just by staying 1 night in a brothel

I honestly think the money was substantial, but the brothel was just way too expensive (judging by how the merchant reacted, I would guess that bond is roughly equal to dollars in value)

Plus, giving him that land was probably for his benefit- it's easier to change things up when there's no prior foundation you have to plan around. He gets to start from a blank canvas. I mean, it'll be far harder for him, yes, but high-effort high-return is the name of the game.

I'm actually already at ease, the hero party wasn't jerks but this bitch appeared like wtf your fucking party won't get strong easily if he's not there, this bitch was making it sound like they just used him, it ruined it.
