It is pretty much a neverending cycle of being betrayed and lonely.

When his hometown was razed, his father was killed in front of his eyes and his sister was sold as slave to a noble. He is stuck with a never ending circle of grief and despair plus the building distrust on humanity. His time at Crowley did not save him either. Him getting physical is his defense mechanism to not being hurt at all again. And sadly nobody tried 'save' him this early.

Later on, Rein's mercy at Lobelia are also not seen as a compassion, but more as a mockery of Lobelia's life "....like an insult from those who are priviledged to those that does not live with the luxury"

Also this would continue to loop over as Lobelia kept being lonely and betrayed by literally everyone (even his sister later on). And he died, truly alone in every sense and betrayed by everyone. With nobody understand him.
You just convinced me more that he's retarded.
Hitting a classmate that ask you nicely just beyond dumb. Tragic my ass.

He deserves everything that coming at him if he's being that dumb. His new parents seems like a good guys (at least from this chapter shown, unless he secretly tortured him then it's a whole different story), but he's just lashing out at anyone and justify it as "DefEnSe mEcHaniSm" bs.

I already dont like this because its the "false villain" trope but then we got a stupid backstory with retarded sympathy. Im really questioning my past self for loving the isekai genre.

Kind of weird for a noble to ask a random slave if he wants to be adopted, a second after they bumped into each other. :question: I was thinking mc was going to get molested by the noble or something, to add to the tragic backstory. But no, he got an amazing second chance at life, but turned into an asshole? :facepalm: Hopefully there is something interesting to make this worth reading.

Worried this won’t be good since author clearly can’t tell what a tragic villain is this is just karma for being a prick
Hopefully it’s just mc that sees it as tragic but it seems author showed other also consider it tragic having one sad moment doesn’t excuse being an asshole and hurting people for no reason

Don’t get me wrong I love selfish asshole mc’s but don’t call them tragic when they ain’t.

Glad everyone is calling out author's bs "sad backstory" :lul:

Like how can such a pathetic persistent person be a "fan favorite" when the sad part stops right after his parents got killed? Everything that happened afterwards is all his fault.

The villain's back story was so dumb lmao. Who tf was triggered by someone asking him to lend a book? That was the most juvenile reason to be a villain, ever.

I would have been better if his tragic past was at least relatable, but the other already said, all the bad things happened to him after escaping were his own damn fault! Why should anyone sympathize with him? That makes no sense lol

Tragic death ? More like dumb death. How he keep beating people for no reason is why people fed up with him. Even after the hero spared his life he keep fighting against them for no fucking reason, even becoming a slave for the demon who were the enemies of him and die like a dog.

How people consider this tragic anyway ? After knowing his background I just feel he is dumb and his death is just deserved.
Aye, that was sloppy writing. It would have been far better if he became unreasonably violent from being provoked. Like some kids from an older noble family called his (adoptive) family upstarts, and he would have kicked their asses immediately, blowing the whole thing out of proportion. Pile a bunch of such incidents, with some "harmless" school drama betrayals, with escalation. Similarly his first encounter with the hero should have been more morally gray in reality, even though for the player it would have looked like a black and white situation. Like he would have been working in the gray area of the law, but the hero got a mission to destroy his business, presented as fighting evil.

All of this could have been made to present Lobelia as rather wicked when a gamer was playing the game, but then the backstory would reveal the missing details. Now, with the half-assed backstory, it's exactly as you said.
