Stupid protag... If you have the ability to just show everyone a visual trail like that, why do you have to run away from the law to do it? Just say that you have this magic and prove it in front of witnesses.

As a stereotypically distrusted racial minority, it may have also been a poor move to pick up or openly carrying something that looks valuable.

He clearly has to be racist or have ulterior motives to try and be friends with me.

How often in fiction does the latter ever win anyway?

In his defense, it seems like the backstory of 99% of non-humans in these isekai is that they've already been put into slavery, are being approached by seemingly nice people only to be put into slavery, or to be framed for a crime. So being approached by anyone is suspicious.

And in this case he was approached while being actively discriminated against, so he was already primed to be on the lookout for that.

And even if the character knew that he was being approached by the protagonist... That doesn't seem to always be a safe bet either. So many protagonists are on a power trip, or have massive scary secrets. In this case he's literally being approached by a 300+ year old Dragon Demon General that has spent 300 years getting brainwashed by ancient monsters into thinking they were good guys and that the hero is bad. So he is very very very right to be suspicious.

I didn’t think he needed a wolf boyfriend, but sure why not

Edit: immediately after posting this I realized I was screwed by autocorrect, it was supposed to be wolf-boy friend. Maybe MC swings both ways, why not?

Because you would just stand around randomly holding an item you stole, the merchant is so big brained

I mean the wolf is also pretty stupid, who just randomly picks up valuable items off the street? Just leave them there, or actually look for the owners instead of standing around staring at them.

Honestly I was just wondering why they decided to make the tsundere half beast person a dude in this harem manga.

And why they decided to have the most generic boring plot in the world when they started off semi interesting.

I would. Finders keepers and all that. She was actually nice enough to look for who dropped it, as depicted by a panel shown in the manga

Makes sense, but if you're going to pick up an expensive item off the street, don't stand around holding it. You need to shove that crap in your pockets, so no one sees you holding it.

She?

Didn't Maleficent lose her wings, because her boyfriend came from a kingdom of anti-monster racists, and he endeared himself to her despite her better judgment?
