So you blame Dion for almost dying and choosing the “dragon girl“ (Eldora btw) when they both saved each other from dying, Eldora is the only one who knows the truth, or at least saw his state enough to believe what Dion said, reinforcing his choice later on. He decided he couldnt stay with Yuki (that is the name you forgot too) for the same reason he was… “banished”, he felt he was not worth to stay with her or condemn her for what happened, and keeping quiet, because who would believe him? that party is practically hero material. Its a typical lack of self confidence issue reinforced by the attempt on his life, why blame him for taking action on what he thought best? (As wrong as it may be).

So you barely remember the characters names and didnt understand the manga at all too…

It would be understandable to feel bad for Yuki because she is also a victim here, but blame Dion for keeping quiet? Really?
Ok, the lack of self confidence is a decent justification, but not enough to bypass the adventurers rules. You can bend it however you want, he still made multiples mistakes that lead to this situation. Maybe jerk is too strong as a word, but I maintain that I feel bad for her and don't like this MC.

I still think Dion's a bit of a jerk for not even trying to pass a message to his childhood friend that he was still alive.
He's the stupid kind of non-confident protagonist. He can't fathom his good friend would care for him regardless of his true usefulness, let alone think they might almost kill themselves worrying about at least finding their corpse.

His actions are that of a jerk, but not because he want to be a jerk to her.

You say "even after all that happened", but I don't recall her being explicitly told what happened, since the Guildmaster made a show of it and started the fight and called her weak as shit, now she's even being bm'd by a dungeon monster 🫡

Though they apparently never treated him well
She doesn't know, but she doesn't seem to be stupid (at least not continuously) either, and can smell they had something to do with his disappearance.

And also I think I remember she called them out on how they were basically using her to try and climb up in rank when she's their main powerhouse.

I totally agree, he might have made mistakes, he might be responsible in some degree, but blaming him and calling him a jerk? Dont forget he is also a vicitm here, be it by circumstance or omission, still a victim. I dont like him that much either, too gentle, I keep reading because I love Eldora lol and I want to see where they all end up.

Do you have access to the physical copies or something? If not, where's your source? As there is nowhere I can find online that shows any such raws. Granted, my luck with search engines is absolute garbage, where they show everything but what I'm looking for, even when I make it focus on certain terms.
Mangadex’s manga profile has the official raw link.

And just like all other official sites, they paywall you from being able to read the series in its entirety. No thank you, I'm fine being called a pirate.
You can still read the latest two (partial) chapters, but I only meant to look at the official raw to know the latest chapter available. They havent released new chapters for almost a couple of months already.

I understand what you mean, but I don't agree on the fact that a victim can't be blamed for what he decide after. Doing that is like denying the concept of free will imo. My stance on free will is: the moment you are given the power to decide, mental (for childrens), or physical (for slaves), you are responsible of what you do. Being a victim excuse nothing. It can explain or justify a decision, but that's all.

For a precision, I speak about morality, not law. In law it's understandable to use circumstances to juge an offense because the result is juged, but I don't think it's a good idea to use circumstances to juge morale responsibility because here, we juge the decision only.

Rememer making someone responsible for their mistakes is not the same thing as blaming them for those mistakes. With the first one, there is an inherent consequence they need to deal with to redeem themselves of said mistakes and find absolution (for themselves and/or others) allowing for further character development and improvement; with the second, they are punished for comitting said mistakes regardless if they deal with the consequences or not, absolution becomes meaningless.

The moment he became a victim by circumstance (meaning the party tried to kill him), he shouldnt be blamed for what happened, since his following choices are made out of what that situation brought to him mentally and emotionally, regardless of right or wrong. Should he remain avoiding the situation forever? Definitely not, he must make amends, specially now that he has power and is not A powerless sidecharacter anymore, with a very powerful companion in Eldora, Yuki would have an actual coherent positive minded party (if Segritt and the rest are to be punished), so him bearing responsibility of his choices is a definite development, in a positive way.

I just only hope nothing dramatic happens like Yuki dying on him or something…

Actually, there is precedence for this kind of actions taken in literature and fiction.
It's called Cruel Mercy which are acts of punishment and benevolence. These adventurers who betrayed the "weak" Dion and left him to die believed their strength permitted them to kill. Now, they are the weak ones, they are the ones who would have died if not for Dion, and they know it. They must suffer knowing the trash they tried to kill saved their lives. And even with Yuki not killing them in retribution, leaving their team would weaken them further. It's also likely this story of their crimes will spread, even just as gossip, and they will be known as a group of betrayers of their own party. No one will trust them, no one will work with them. They will be alone, effectively banished by the masses for their crimes.

Yuki, for her part, will think little of them ever again, but they will remember this always. They will suffer for their cruelty and cowerdice, and never know respect again.

I hope so. But sadly most manga antagonists are so stupid and one dimensional they cannot even comprehend about it. Usually they just go their happy days if karma doesn't happen to em.
