Model get!
Now our boy can draw wine, gourmet food, dresses, and other luxuries for her. And as previously mentioned, she can act as a model in her best environment, in a place surrounded with luxury.
now, people speak of a legendary mountain village.
full of beautiful legendary beasts, lead by an elder sparrow. and never before seen fruits, as delectable as the nectars of the gods.
it is said that you need a pure heart to be able to return alive from the village. for everyone of the villager is at least as strong as the best mercenary money can buy.
there's no escaping the villagers. as a lot of them have the vigilance no worse than the best spy the empire employs.
and in the middle of the village plaza, stood....
not a statue. but a drawing. of a child that's said to be the founder of the village.
… this kid is QUICKLY approaching having her as another “I would die to protect him” level of commitment ally. Little dude is going to end up with a Fire Emblem army at this rate, a pile of highly skilled love-struck crazy people!!
I would've prefered a princess plot instead, it'd at least add intrigue and depth even if it was cliche. I now view the MC as a awkward 2014 anime japanese teenager who still believes girls causes an extreme case of cooties and was denser than a black hole. You know the era where every interaction felt like it was made by someone that was never in a relationship and probably hasn't touched a woman like they haven't touched grass? Yeah, imagine that, but through some miracle the MC actually touched grass in his life and you'll have my current view of the MC....
"Fucking Virgin Trash" is a good way to summarize it without using the potentially banned word
