I understand the mind game is waaaaayyyy too complex for a 'normal guy' to pull off. You have this guy, that guy, that other guy, this girl, and that king trying to outplayed each other. And how the MC gather information is never explained or how he execute all of this, but explaining how the 'dark side' work is really hard so the author take the short cut.
At least the MC has a goal that doesn't center around banging girls. I had enough of 'I want to create my own harem or somehow I could save them by banging them' storyline.
