I don't want to stand out. Ooops everyone almost dead, thankfully I'm strong.

 

[icekatze]

...What just happened? I think maybe my hopes for the direction of this story have fallen.

 

[Kyujyu]

Lol wtf no using your noble background to save your skin and baring your fang at MC?
You just gonna turn yourself in without ever tasting that slave mob-san? What do you abstain for a week for?😅

@icekatze Never have expectation for isekai power fantasy. Treat it as eating junk food.

 

[GapingPlothole69]

sex her... NOW

 

[vannn]

Not sure what would be worse, if the cliche noble actually turned himself in or he just lied and the MC fucked off without seeing it through. Bring back the mom, make her MC. SOL comedy with magicless mother cleaning up after her dumb son.

 

[xannha]

congatulation, i think?

 

[toastedguy]

he just said ok lmao

 

[SuperAIDS]

Uuuuuhg so short. Finished all 4 and thought I was starting number 3

 

[Shinobu]

There it is.
The mandatory slave trope. Ffs

 

[Kllick]

Alright you criminal, now turn yourself in to the police and let them jail you. I'll go to another town. Don't forget to turn yourself in, alright?

 

[Wolvenworks]

He basically has to turn himself in. Even if no one there can force him to, there are FAR too many witnesses for the authorities to ignore. Either he'd have to kill the 50+ people there, or be on the run for the rest of his life. Considering his casting speed, and the more knowledgeable mage right there who could interfere with his spells, the townspeople could easily just hang up on him before he could kill them all (or at least run away to report it elsewhere).
The protection of noble status only goes so far, and attempted mass murder isn't covered (at least when it's that public). Authorities would definitely cover up lesser crimes, but acts like that could spark a revolt, which isn't worth the risk.
Even if the government's authorities wouldn't go after a noble, the guild would definitely have the right (and manpower) to capture and punish one of their members, and they would be encouraged to do so in order to increase public trust and get more job requests.
Sure, MC should have stayed to make sure he did, but he'd be a moron to try anything else in that situation.

 

[darekpawlo]

Damn, i thought that MC would just kill the guy

 

[screamdoom]

Man why did he expect that he will turn himself in? Bring the man to the justice yourself, you can't trust criminal

@Tairo
I promise you just put more thought into it than the author.

[breizh]

So was he really an A rank adventurer, or did he cheat to get that rank ?
