Dude's harem is getting totally out of hand. At least there's the single solace, Mina. I hope she will remain a daughter.
Yes but at this point it is getting a bit ridiculous. he author could drag it out a little more. I know this manga is about a harem but at some point, he should have to work for it and not just be handed girls. I mean a queen just handing over her daughter to a low ranked healer just because he cured her sight. I mean would she have done that to anyone who cured her sight. Come on try to add a little thought to the plot.

I did ponder in a comment of an earlier chapter that it could be worth it for the royal family. Pretty much nobody can pull off the extra heal in that kingdom. That's why a princess remained blind and scarred. If the royal family "captured" that extraordinary healer through marriage, he would always be handily available to heal any wounded royal or the royal house's loyal ally/retainer. If the queen did any background research, like she should have, she would know merely trying to hire Reda might not work. Still, it does feel like a stretch that a marriage would be the first option.

But yes, even in these stock fantasy series that aren't isekai, the whole no effort theme is certainly popular these days.

If scam callers existed in isekai, Reda would be getting a call about how his loli collector membership card had been revoked.

I mean it isn't just him being the only healer in the kingdom in the last 50 years to be able to cast Extra Heal, it is also that she knows how fast he learned it since she was the one who donated the book to be gifted to the clinic. So he isn't just a low ranked adventurer with healing magic, he is a low ranked adventurer with healing magic who can learn an incredibly complex spell that would normally take decades to learn in what was it a month?

As boring a plot point it might be, it isn't exactly unrealistic. Throw in the fact that they could mobilize the elves purely because of his connections and you get a result where his political value is off the charts. Oh and as an additional advantage his 'family' consists of the Demon Lord Slaying Hero, the greatest Elven Warrior, and an Assassin who can fight on par with the other two. Her daughter might very well be safer in his household than in the Palace itself.

So the boring issue is the instant falling for the one who heals you trope more so than the Queen being willing to promote trying to tie what may be the most powerful family in the country to the throne. May have been more interesting is the Queen was handing over her daughter in an attempt at political maneuvering, but that would also be rather out of character for this manga. It is what it is.

Yikes, good job queen 🫡

Made me ultimately give up on it, considering it's not even funny how a third party just wants to force him to be with someone through status and he just lets it slide
