I like the story. But the translation is just not good.
The story is slow, the MC undergoes a lot of training in the beginning, and the old man is definitely an a**h**e, but he does teach the kid how to cook, clean, and earn a living.
But as soon as the MC goes to down to the village and we get some chapters with plot and world building, the story becomes unreadable. The translation just can't keep up with anything that sounds complicated. I feel like if I keep reading this I'll just lose braincells.
