S-Kyuu Boukensha ga Ayumu Michi: Tsuihou Sareta Shounen wa Shin no Nouryoku 'Buki Master' de Sekai Saikyou ni Itaru - Ch. 2.3

[Rafalga]

So....doesn't he take some A or B rank quests without crumpling monsters into gore? I also can't tell if he wants to take S rank quests or if it's being forced on him. The guildmaster should have final say on giving such missions to a solo, but it doesn't sound like MC is pushing him to provide harder quests.

Why would he take low level quests when he is capable of more? Even in a terrible state after being killed, S class monster remains are still exponentially more valuable. He is only doing extermination quest S class or higher in order to utilize his power better since anything lower dies in like 2 seconds so he doesn't have time to experiment.

[Frank_zero]

screw this b*tch, anyone on the gnugnu grow up side is just a doormat... what do you mean she meant well? she dosen't even had the courage to say the things herself she made gyaru-oh do the thing to be sure to avoid any responsability like a friging child an HE need to grow up??... and suddenly when the guy can become an army of his own she's apologetic??? she remind me of all those morons almost 40 feminists who come crying on youtube and tiktok whining non stop that no "good men" want them anymore... dug your own grave, now lie in it...

 

[AkodoRyu]

2 years and she still didn't apologize....no wonder he won't forgive her. Also I REALLY want him use other weapons than just guns https://images.app.goo.gl/53YXGq8xn6kA6bsv8

Since I'm pretty sure his class is closer to something like "Firearms Master" than just generic English "Weapon", I wouldn't hold my breath. That was the whole issue - there were Sword Masters, Shield Masters, etc., and holding cold weapons did nothing for him, so he couldn't fight.

 

[Dead4rain]

Dang, she really didn't apologize for two years? I thought that she did apologize and he just didn't accept it. That's kinda messed up bruh 💀

No he is literally a weapon master. Anything you see being used in an army, he can summon and use it (though over time, hence the "i need to decipher the book" comment). Yes, including those...

I think this hits what I mean when I say he is being carried by his power.

Of COURSE there are reasons to take lower level quests. He's not in debt or urgently in need of money, and he doesn't seem to enjoy nearly dying every single day. Even in the scenario where his obsessions have taken over, there are plenty of things to test on lower level enemies, like if the base strength of his weapons is increasing, if he can throttle the explosive power without changing the weapon itself, or just not killing things with explosives because that would be kinda handy for escort or urban assignments.

Well he is an isekai MC so his power is obviously gonna be equally MC like. Positive side to the usual trope is that he also trains VERY hard to utilize it to its upmost potential so it doesn't really come across as "oh i have the one shot power now gg". As i've mentioned in a previous comment, summoning weapons doesn't effect his base stats so he needs to also train to use them effectively. It's like giving an M4 to civilian and giving it to an spec ops opperator. The difference in effectiveness will be massive.

His aim is to challange very high level dungeons solo so he doesn't have time to waste with anything else.

so many stuff got left out in the manga ver. that was in the novel

That needs to be done to keep it contained. As long as it can convey the over all massage, i think its fine. And according to over all reception, i think it pretty much did. (why he is so angry at them and such). Though i wish they kept the shit talking he did to lesbian saint and the dickweed in.

it does, but imo, they should kept the part where he's wary that he's being ambushed because that's how much he doesn't trust her, additionally, Geist talking to him whether he wants to return to sacred or not irritated him so much he left the party in the castle, which is why he's already annoyed when sasha called out to him to apologize
all of those parts actually short and some can be shown in image only, especially the "afraid of being ambushed and being ready to fight back"

i have never been a fan of things being cut way too short (which is why i hate s2 mushoku anime because the new director kept adaptating the wrong part and cut off all the important parts despite those being short)

edit : i genuinely feel bad for the translator knowing how much of a bitch that lesbian saint is and the translator will find out later on in the manga lol

Reading this manga it's important to not think of either side as the purely evil as the manga will (probably) switch between them, showing both POVs. Though it's natural to tend to one side that doesn't mean you have to hate the other one.
Sasha made a big blunder that's for sure. In this chapter Hyce clearly pointed out all her mistakes: she made him feel weak and unwanted (lowering his self esteem), she abandoned him to achieve their dream alone and she avoided him for 2 years (due to her feelings of guilt) without clearing up the situation. A good thing in the manga is that he doesn't accuse her of trying to kill him (in the WN he did). Even in the WN he knows but he repeats it because it's his source of motivation. Sending him to the flower field was surely a blunder on her side but it's not so bad some commentators make it. You have to take in consideration that partys distribute their tasks, they have specialist for everything: Sasha (close combat), Reynold (defense), Robin (archery), Tycoon (magic), Piazzola (healer). The party just dismissed Hyce at that moment, the person not only responsible for carrying the luggage but also for administrative tasks and info gathering. Thus, Sasha may be the leader but she's definitely not the brain of the party. So she didn't even think that it could be necessary to gather information on about a flower field she simply hadn't had to do it until this moment. She's the main fighting force of the party. That where she excels. But she's pretty clumsy regarding her emotions.
That being said, of course she is guilty of the points Hyce mentioned in this chapter.
What's worse in this chapter in comparison to the WN is Hyce's reaction in between. I think there was no need for the short outburst which only promotes the edgelord comments. In the WN he remained calm the whole time while pointing out her mistakes.
To sum it up, while being clearly at fault, Sasha (and every other person) should have the right to apologize if that is what they feel (even if it's far too late). On the other side, Hyce has the right to reject the apology. It's refreshing to see the character communicating and expressing their feelings (not the usual "he/she should have understood what I meant..."). What's important is what both of them do with this knowledge.

Edit: The rain that started during the apology gave the scene a pretty nice touch.

 

[Beastkun]

i mean the fact she didnt even try saying anything to him over the last 2 years is crazy so it makes sense he would feel that way

first kicked off the team without explaining anything about it then being sent some where and almost getting killed

and then not hearing anything for 2 years? lol yeah i dont blame him at all for feeling how he's feeling

also im glad he's like how he is and not just instantly just going back

 

[GetRekdm8]

I mean he's got a point.

At any point, she could have made an effort within the 2 years to attempt to reconcile with him.

Yeah, you just have to be omega universe level simp at this point to keep giving Sasha the benefit of the doubt. Can't believe some people think he's being childish. In his lived experience they betrayed him that day and sent him to go die.

Now, is that what really happened? No, but with that traumatic experience he went through + zero contact after the incident it's beyond selfish, ignorant and ridiculously thickheaded to just act like he is "in the wrong" for not wanting to have anything to do with her and his old team again.
The point-of-view and the outside, more encompassing knowledge of the situation you have as the reader/onlooker doesn't make his actions "childish". He has every right to feel the way he does, since he isn't omniscient and doesn't have the knowledge we do. He never saw or heard their side of the story, and again, they were content to not even share it for 2 years afterwards. At best he got some half-hearted words from the guild leader, with the same one-sided "stop being childish" mentality directed at him.

Every other character failed to meet him halfway, they immediately handwaved his feelings on the matter, don't forget that.

 

[phorx]

fuck her mc is right

Well, in the novel she actually offered her body as a way of making it up to him, which he obviously declined. They really cut this scene short which is a pity.

 

[Blackspace_2]

"No hyce, you dont get it! after you collapsed there was a sudden 2 year time skip, we couldnt apologize because the readers wouldnt have seen it! you gotta believe me!"

 

[phorx]

Did she even feel bad in the first place? Or is she just apologizing now to recruit him now that he’s stronger than her entire team?
