Whoa, chill out, you kiss your mother with that mouth?

 

[spawnknight]

Does it seems like MC just don't give a fuck about anything? I mean it's weird that he's so lax about the whole thing that makes one wonder if he's alright in the head.

And why didn't he help the elf girl?

 

[Coolyeah145]

What was the point of what just happened?

I swear, half of the Narou series I’ve seen from this site have the main characters be borderline sociopathic

I don’t think that the authors really get human interaction.

sometimes you have to wonder if the authors project themselves on MC...

Or maybe they are just lazy

Unfortunately, that's the Japanese for you. I mean, why do you think Black Companies are so prevalent over there and get away with so much abuse?

If you really look hard at their history and the culture of the Samurai class, you'll see that sociopathic tendencies are not a bug, but a feature of their society. (If you haven't, go read Shogun by Edward Clavelle. It's a dramatized retelling of the Englishman that shipwrecked on the shores of Japan and became a retainer of Tokugawa known as Anjin Miura.)

Fortunately, in the last generation or two, they've been coming around on it. This is probably thanks to the Internet reducing the walls of social isolation that the older generations try to maintain.

But yeah, this is kinda pushing it for me. I can understand letting go of the negativity in your life, but this...

I have a feeling that it's only going to get worse, and the biggest flag for this was that kid's mother in the other town. The main character thinking that she'll just get over her only child disappearing right when her husband passed away? This was either intentional on the writer's part, or they're so socially stunted that they don't even get it.

 

[walczyk]

wtf was that ending, that was creepy as fuck

 

[FlameSeamus]

I get the weird feeling from the MC that other people are getting, but what got me here was that the arsonist and elf are just gone in the last panel. they got tied to the base of that tower, and then we see it again when MC is walking away, and poof, no longer there.

Reverse trope Light elf probably a thot. She was 'nice' to get free but a bitch overall. Too much drama.

Thank u always for ur great work...
^^...

He cant even warming up when fighting him...
XD...

The problem with helping her or not might be simpler than people might think. Go back to chapter 1, it was explained at the auction house that only the registered master can remove the collar, in this case that POS he just tied up. It's rigged otherwise. If anyone else tries to tamper with it, it'll extend spikes into the slave's neck and kill her. If MC takes her with her, similar problem; we don't know all the activation conditions of the collar. By being taken away, the enchantment might consider it as an attempt to escape, if she's X amount of distance away from her owner, and still activate.

Still, he didn't have to tie her up too. Since she herself was so worried about the collar, she couldn't run away if she wanted to without endangering her own life.

The first reason I'd think of to tie her up was to give her a plausible way to explain the MC getting away without making it seem like she didn't lift a finger to help her master. This way she can say she tried to fight him after her master got knocked out, got beat, and was tied up so that she could save face (since it seems likely that the scumbag master would beat her for disobedience or whatever).

Of course that would rely on a MC that doesn't seem to be an unblinking sociopath who doesn't give a crap about anyone else.

I'm not even sure why I'm still reading this series. The brief glimpses of the MC being decent are offset by him dealing with every problem with the disaffected nature of an unflinching serial killer. Sure maybe it's better than the overdosed trope of "burning hero of ultimate burning justice whose heart burns for justice against the unjust that try to burn down the world" shonen action heroes, but this is just... lame.

 

[MesaOracle]

Such a waste. Everyone knows it's best to eat the whole chicken, both white meat and dark meat. Sometimes even having an oyakodon.

 

[sjpc302]

One thing people have to consider is this is an adaptation, and that is responsible for the weirdness here imo. The whole situation surrounding Atie's first time with him is because the author wrote one thing (explicitly non-con) and the manga adaptation wanted to not do that, but also try to keep the original plot intact, hence the weirdness of their relationship during and after that. I imagine it is a similar case here, though I haven't read the ln.

 

[Mangamoz]

I guess I have to see this while keeping in mknd that the MC is a villanous protag.

 

[St0rmFury]

The fuck is a cheestoh?

 

[Sh4dey]

OK - The child thing was hard pushing the boundaries of moral and logical comprehension. But this right here was just nonsense.

MC is a literal unrelatable puppet - doing things with little to no emotional explanation or human reasoning.

How has this not been axed?

something like war cry ?

I'm glad someone else was horrified by that.
