MC keeps noting how the guy would destroy the country if his kid died, my question is, how was MC planning to live his peaceful life in the boonies if he hadn't randomly saved the kid?
Seems like he didn't have a plan at all, just hoping that they'd not get crushed along with the rest of the country?

What exactly do you think he can do for a plan?
In the first place, he reincarnated as a side character of the game. There's an actual hero out there who is the main character of the game. And from what I understand, that hero will be able to save the kingdom--you know, like any hero in any game.

He could bail, make a raft and sail for the horizon, fuck if I know, the story isn't that detailed, but author poking this one point over and over again just makes it feel like MC should have been ready for it somehow.

And no, I do not believe it would be a sane choice to hope the game protag would save the day when hes not even on the same noble factions side, the good ending for the protagonist is likely not a good ending for MC. But as I said, there's not really enough info to speculate.

His focus seemed to be avoiding the fate of how Len became an enemy in the sequel game. He forgot about that guy before the daughter got saved, and that's why he didn't think about dealing with the event with that guy https://mangadex.org/chapter/151b80fc-5ef6-4e94-a558-1f0feed33f32/11.

Also, based on ch 1, it seems like his current family is more caring than his previous life, so he probably doesn't want to abandon them. And anyway he wasn't old enough or strong enough to do anything significant before everything got resolved by itself.

Though, I agree that we are lacking details.

It is weird how passive he was on such an important topic.

This is such a pandering, narcissistic story.
  • Doesn't introduce himself or make any attempt to form friendly relations.
  • Doesn't thank her for drying, then cleaning his clothes.
  • Acts to protect her even though it's perfectly obvious that she doesn't need protection.
  • Murders poor, innocent starving boars that are just trying to survive.
.. But thank you for the release. :)

It's stiff, but certainly not without effort. There's some grammar/sentence structure areas, as well as spots that look like there were meant to be more details:

* The territories/estates should be mentioned specifically as such, just saying The Klausel doesn't let people know whether it refers to the young lady's house or the territory at large

* Punctuation will affect tone and delivery, an should be used in conjunction with special text such as italics or half-opacity to differentiate between volumes and emphasis. When the maid is conversing about the birthday, she's doing so knowing she's not fully out of earshot of the young lady, but is doing so with the gesture for secrecy, which is to raise one hand to the side when denoting that the person or persons on the outside/back of the hand should not hear the information. From cues like that, you can more or less surmise that from the moment the panel shifted to that shot, that she was whispering the important part, which is that the party was for the young lady's birthday.


Other than that, it's more just self-study and practice expanding your translation to English, which is shaping up--looking forward to your next drop assuming that you're not leaving it to DeepL/MTL. We got too many of those groups around here, you know...
