And it just so happens that girls are not things he remotely desires. He values gold more than her problems, or even the girl herself. He knows what he wants and siezes it. He revels in being powerful, and internally laughs whilst portraying himself as the fool. He’s the daydreamer living out his wildest fantasies with nothing but a prideful ojou in his path. It is the MCs utter shamelessness that makes him bold. It is his desire to role play seriously that makes him compliant.
But yeah, the context is that someone claimed the girl having a fiance makes him a cuck, or that not actually wanting the girl makes him a cuck. Screw that noise. The Mc is alpha in his own right. I won’t say he’s a chad for his lack of getting laid, nor will I support the notion that having things makes one alpha. However, he is in control of his destiny and drives the reigns in the direction he freely wills it.
