So MC goes by the name of "zero" when adventuring so thats why no one actually know him. Japan also have a bad impression of adventurers akin to free lancer (i.e. unstable work) vs government worker (i.e. iron rice bowl)

MC's GF thought he is poor because he have been bringing her to all you can eats and amusement park overnight stays since high school. But those all you can eat BBQ is at places where you order the meat ala cart and there is no prices on the menu (i.e. cater to the stupid rich where money is not money and there is no dress code), MC can pay anyway so its "all you can eat". And having the equivalent of family vacations for dates warped the poor girls sense of value bad.

she initially do still like him but is feeling lonely because of the MC being away to earn money to retire, and is unsure about the future about the "unstable job". The NTR bro took the chance to convince her that adventurers are bascially struggling artists with no future and take her out to "mature" dates, essentially salting the ground and whispering honey.

As for not getting angry about being removed as a adventurer, MC wanted to retire for years but leadership begged him to stay. so this is the perfect chance to finally retire (imagine wanting to cancel your phone plan and not needing to listen to the operator try to retain you a million times.)

Later he gets blacklisted by a low level receptionist and dont fight back too. Because blacklisted people cant be reinstated without being whitelisted by a international board (i.e. scandal). so no one can "correct the mistake" and force him to come back to work anymore haha

And really even though he is SSS ranked I do not believe any system maker would write in additional protections to designated accounts. Then it gets grandfathered in to now where someone is actually stupid enough to do something without going through the bureaucracy.

I agree that the plot is really just a series of plot devices. but it is slop without trying to pretend its better like the stupid smartphone slop. I love this slop mhhhhmmmmm
Yep, the story is pretty forced there, when it "works" at the start for MC being soul crushed the blacklisting was retarded as it
was a friend of his ex that actually had advised her to break up, and after hearing it finally happened she blacklist MC to make sure he can't work anymore, for no reason at all, and for some reason both this idiots work in a adventurer guild without understanding what one is, they truly enjoyed their abuse of power.
MC isn't simply a good adventurer, he is the best material claimer in the world, like 10% of the global supply came from him alone, so when he got fired everything shaked.
Unfortunately he decides to stay true to his word and absolutely not resist and just let shitty people play around with him, he have money and doesn't care, but a normal person would have made them lose their job for their attitude, and he should have done it anywy because they coudl mistreat another adventurer for no reason, but nope, he just take it.
Even when everything is revealed and they have to be punished MC ask the top of the system to just let it go, and in fact the NTR asshole is sent in a deadend postion, a demotion, but not fired, when nothing happend to the receptionist, she only apologizes after being called and that is it, it was pathetic, and truly wrong as MC being blacklisted was something the whole world seen, it would shame a country for the cause to get out.
The foreign top adventurers looked at Japan like it was a weird creature when they heard how adventurers were treated.

Yep. About to be raped when monster bears attack, severely wounding her (maiming her face and breaking her legs. She loses consciousness after, so I assume the bears ate her afterwards. This was after getting into a fight with her now-husband after going over-budget trying to look good for him. (Chapter 27 of the web/light novel.)
Yes, she joined some random
adventurers, thinking it would be a easy job as MC could do it, she gets brutalized by a monster. "Lucky" her, MC is around, save her ass, that is horribly mauled, lost limbs and massive scars, MC does use potions to heal her up but is not the kind of story where they fix everything, send her to a hospital and pays every bill, then even let a advanced payment for the best surgeon to fix her face.
After all of that she finally understand who he was a as man and a person, can only apologize but if I'm right he had just left, just felt bad to let the person he loved in that state.
Bitch finally gets the resolution to grow up and decides to become a real adventurer with a couple friends she stil have.
When she was in the hospital NTR bastard, her husband, sees her scarred and decides to divorce on the spot.
NTR bastrad doesn't have it easy thankfully, after being sent to a dead end position in the adventuer infrastructure he gets demoralized, he even gets a massive hit to his elite paycheck and as said, the bitch spends it all to be beautiful for him, but for her stupidity and his depression it cracks their relationship even more as she drained the account.
He was cheating on her with a female co-worker, that was the wife of his new position boss, there was no love but after this guy tried to get in a serious relationship with her she drops him on the spot, she only wanted a sex friend, then to distance herself she denounce how she was raped with some data she compiled, they had kept the relationship hidden being both married, so is her words against his, the boss knows is a farce but seeing how this guy can't stop making problems he threatens him with paying to settle or prison, NTR bastard only goes lower from there.
Is a nice revenge fantasy.

Is it really revenge when the MC doesn't actively seek it out?

Is not, this is just a pseudo-revenge fantasy, MC never lifts a finger to hurt the people that cheated him and wanted to see him crawl on the ground without a job, but they get punished by karma, and when the actual legal punishment is almost non-existing the butterfly effect that ruins their life later is the real thing.
I thought it was fine, just pissed that 2 did get their just punishament, but one just apologized and that was it, unless her karma was in a chapter I didn't read, is not impossible she got something as afterhought in a couple lines I didn't see.

I wanted to recheck the novel because I had some doubts on the receptionist.
Her punishment was a
demotion, 10 year pay cut and moved from desk duty to cleaning around the building, it was really to get her volutarily leave on her own as MC ASKED for the the 2 to not be punished.
You are right that her punishment should have been higher, in my opinion the cheater deserved that fully and her friend got out light, but shouldn't have got karma mauled, the NTR guy abused his power but she blacklisted MC without reason, that in the world setting is a crime, and only because MC asked it didn't make the cops get called.
Her other faults in the story were introducing NTR guy to the cheater and then twisting cheater idea of what a adventurer was, not out of malice, they are actual friend, this idiot simply didn't understand her own job.
Anyway she leaves the job and...becomes a adventurer, she is one of the friend that makes a party with cheater after she leaves the hospital, the 2 finally realizing MC was a treasure and they were idiots.
The author decided that the karma for her was the humiliation of losing a good government job, that is almost impossible to get fired from and have a good salary, I stay of the opinion that as MC didn't care about her anyway the guild service should have prosecuted her legally.
Anyway of the 3 she got the lightest karma and bounced back quickly.

feels like we are missing some context. Why did it suddenly jump from "I am a guild employee and you are trying to propose to your girlfriend. I can't overlook that, so let me fire you"? Even if we assume the translation missed some part about how he had grabbed her forcefully, it is still a very odd leap of logic (doing a[ny minor] crime is in no way a legit reason you can be fired for, particularly since any actions outside your job in your private life should not be allowed to affect your job [unless it is directly related in some way. not just "bad pr", lest it is quite literally the public face of the company]. Work and personal life are meant to be entirely separate [which is why ppl trying to get others fired as revenge for something is utterly stupid and employers should/are not be allowed to fire someone on those grounds]).

After thinking about it, my cope is that this is the first time something like this has happened. Therefor there’s no protocol. Kinda like how PPE was made mandatory after people starting getting hurt.

From what I got, he revoked MC's adventurer license for the following reasons:
1- The girl asked for him to do that, thinking MC will be free to find "a better job";
2- To impress the girl with a display of power and dominance;
3- He thought that MC was a struggling mediocre adventurer, so probably was making an ugly fuss about the breakup, and maybe would try to force the girl go back to him no matter what, stalk her, etc. Revoking the license was a way to send a message: "See how I have the power to ruin your life? Leave Kaori alone, or else I can fuck with you even more."

Just be happy, my man...
I don't mind if the story is super generic and boring. I just have some respect to the MC for treating a bad day as joyful drinking party with the chef and restaurant workers.
yeah, actually good part (only that pretty much hahaha) and if you notice the MC just didn't make a reservation for the restaurant, he reserved the whole place, at least the people there were nice and shared his bad time with some drinks

what a trainwreck... random guy can "revoke" someone's license at any time? seemingly the MC here is really important, but nobody has tried to contact him? as for the girl, parents abandoned you and withdrew you from school... why would she ever think to go to the authorities, right? she's gonna go into the dungeon instead. makes sense!
That's Japan, you need parental permission to report your parents for neglect, without their consent you're just being a troublesome child.

1- didn't seem like she said very much to the guy before he did stuff
2- I suppose. Just that the dialogue felt disjointed itself, not really "look babe, I can do this!"
3- that sounds like a stellar way to remove all leverage you have over someone, since the moment he did that he no longer held any authority whatsoever over mc. Also, pretty much the best move to do if you want someone to hold a grudge against you and your girl, and if mentally unstable enough start plotting some revenge. Likely by targeting said girl. (that said, she kinda was doing her best to do that anyway, considering she had apparently dated him for decades and only decided to let him know she had a partner (a fiance, no less) when they reached the point-of-no-return (a proposal)...

I searched for some LN chapters to try to find the motivations of three characters for revoking MC's (Reito Harukaze) adventurer license.
There is one lazy translation, and the parts that where I thought this translation was too confusing, I looked for the syoetsu original and translated with DeepSeek. From my attempts to use it, DeepSeek seems very efficient to translate and to fix common machine translation mistakes with the japanese way of building the 1st/ 2nd/ 3rd person narrative.

The three characters I focused are:
  • Kaori - the ex-girlfriend that dumped Kaito;
  • Katsuki Aizawa - the guild elite employee that married Kaori and revoked Kaito's license;
  • Mizuki Shimizu - the newbie guild secretary that blacklisted Kaito...
    ...and the mastermind behind all this plot device

I already wrote in my post above the motivations behind Katsuki's action. It is in his chapters that he mentions that Kaito's license cancellation was something Kaori asked him to do.
Kaori's chapters don't offer a clear reason for her to ask for that. Maybe she did that under Mizuki's influence, thinking that he would become someone more "adult" if he found a "better and more stable" job; and since he still didn't do that, Kaito's marriage proposal without a stable job to back it was, to Kaori, a final proof of Kaito's foolish immaturity - so it should not be taken seriously, and a definitive incentive to break up with him.
Mizuki is more clear about her reasons. She thought Kaito came to her guild branch to start again from scratch as a adventurer, and out of desperation since he was accompanied by a teenager gyaru girl. She thought that adventuring is a shitty job without stability, and since she just started to work in that guild as a civil servant, in a stable job, her position was above any adventurer. Thinking that Kaito was "desperate" to start again as a G-class adventurer to stay in a "shitty, fallen from grace" career path, she blacklisted him as a definitive and irrreversible incentive to make him look for a "better, adult, real job", and she also did that thinking, in a haughty and condescending way, that she was doing a good deed to Kaito and he would one day thank her for that. And Mizuki also played the Cupid, encouraging Katsuki to try to win Kaori's heart, and influencing Kaori to "accept" that Kaito had no future ahead to offer to her and Katsuki was a better and more secure match.

These premises keep getting worse like wtf
Also no way fucking way some guild clerk would have the authority to erase someone's registration just because he feels like it, clearly abuse of authority. That wouldnt stand in court
