Basically, don't read this shit.

What to know if you make the mistake of reading this title:

1• The MC is a complete fucking idiot.
He cannot understand what anybody says, regardless of how many times they say it, and refuses to even try to believe anything he sees or hears... and then acts surprised when he sees and hears the exact thing he has been told and previously saw.
He can't even accept that he is in an isekai when he is literally looking at a Hydra.
His head is full of flowers, and he simply ignores things he doesnt like knowing.
He is a complete moron, and has no business breathing.

2• The world where this takes place has NO rules.
They have slaves, but treat them with random forbearance and violence; slaves can punch their masters, drug them, scream at them, anything... but if they do that to a different person, they can just be beaten, raped, and killed. Even if it isn't their master.
There are simply no rules for the reader to follow or understand.

3• There is no societal structure.
Nobody has the ability to lead or to follow... and then suddenly they do... and then they don't, again.
The rankings of court change depending on who is talking when, and not their rank, or what they know... and then it suddenly matters again.

4• I think this may have been written by a 7 year old.
It has random events that make no sense, followed by things never referenced that it's implied the reader should know, followed by the opposite of what was written in the last chapter.

I gave this 2 stars because I like LHT, but it's possibly the worst thing I have ever read, story-wise.

This manga has the most entitled "slaves" I have ever seen...not only do they snark on a higher up, they force their ideals and awkward behaviors towards the MC.

By far, the only one that fit the "slave" character, was Glen (human vice captain who stashed Liz into the tower with MC).

Who the hell hits, berates, mocks, name-calls, and questions your superior? Even in a non-servitude setting, would you do that to a commanding officer?

The story is nice, but this trope makes it hard to take the plot seriously. The initial bond between Liz and MC seems too forced.

Like, why did the fat Earl have the right to kill Liz for a blunder? Isn't the slave unit under the prince? Too much plot holes and inconsistent behavior.

Everyone is impertinent. Those who aren't get no screen time or are killed off. Even Tama has a better attitude than the characters who can speak...

And finally, there was no compelling reason for the MC to agree with anything this freaking empire is pushing onto him. This just makes the MC feel like a defiant pushover.

This marks the end of my hot take...

Just another story of a 30 year old man who’s more terrified of being romantically involved with a woman than man eating creatures. Its so beyond old at this point.. these type mc’s literally spend 95% of their lives embarrassed and trying to avoid ANYTHING ā€œtroublesomeā€ …

Well he IS a pushover. This is simply just a normal thing in Japanese manga.. Stuff like the protagonist getting betrayed then overly helping the group that tried to ruin his life. This story is right along those lines. For me the bottom line is you don’t have to have super powers to have self respect and self worth. Regardless how powerful the mc’s are most of these stories they rarely have either one.. It’s sad because it brings stories that could have been great down to being mediocre.

Last volumes are pretty terrible. Story becomes a complete mess after Orville shows up. MC goes from helping animals/people to slaying monsters to fleeing from pursuers to doing pointless chores for demigods. They keep getting introduced back to back, and I can't even remember why the MC is hiding. None of it has anything to do with being a vet, develops the MC or supporting cast, or makes me interested in the setting. It feels like a completely different story.

I really liked this until it reaches the Hydra issue. I’ll try not to spoil anything the best I can while complaining. The story takes a massive nose dive at this point. Here’s Shingo.. a person who wields as much power as any noble or king but flat out REFUSES to help Liz. Been reading manga for going on 40 years now and even in all that time I will never get over or used to the Japanese way of ā€œHonor over Logicā€. Shingo could help Liz at the drop of a hat but because of this ā€œHarmonyā€ above all else mindset it would just be too troublesome to do so. Because of this she will continue to be beaten, hurt, and humiliated. Considering just how many younger Japanese people dislike the ā€œwe are all the sameā€ mentality you’d figure since Shingo is now in another world he wouldn’t follow that line of thinking as much. But just like with what happened to Nora he just quickly sweeps Liz’s problems under the rug as ā€œit has nothing to do with me so why would I involve myself with anything troublesome?ā€ It’s both frustrating and infuriating and has brought my reading here to an end. Shingo is a perfect representation of the horrible trend that has been plaguing LN’s and Manga main characters for about the last 15-16 years. Plus Ultra weak mc’s who refuse to kill the enemy that just raped and killed their own sister, refuse to sleep with (or in most cases these days even sit next to without being forced to do so) female heroine who’s worked hard, been brave, and honestly DESERVES his affection, and even after being given extraordinary powers and purpose continuously whine about going back home where they have nothing and no one. In this story the farther along it got the weaker and wimpier he became. And hey, he might pull it all together by chapter 51 but I’ll never know. I’ll be out there continuing my search for stories where actual MEN suffer and persevere to get the job done.. Those who kill the bad guys, kiss the girl, and are grateful for the wonderful gifts they’ve been given. Happy reading gang!
