Saitei Rank no Boukensha, Yuusha Shoujo wo Sodateru Orette - Vol. 2 Ch. 7

"Your achievements are comparable to a special-class."

Oh, fuck off with that. You finally set up an interesting premise and it turns out he was great all along to the point they are actively hiding his history from the students he is mentoring.

I got on board with this series because the protagonist seemed like he would be a normal dude, someone weak desperately struggling not to die whose only real noteworthy trait is his veterancy and experience, not someone who was secretly special and incredibly capable all along.

I mean...

The summary itself is:

"The old man who joined just to fill out the party is actually a legendary adventurer!? A hidden hero turns a talented S-class party of beautiful girls into full-fledged heroes! The greatest training fantasy from "Let's Become a Novelist"!!"

I remember reading the novel and the MC's not secretly strong at all, he's "legendary" because has relationship with a walking disaster but it's not secretly the best and can pull Excalibur out of his ass. The teacher's reasoning is spot-on, special adventurers brute-force traps and surprise attacks until they can't, she wants her cute students to avoid that mentality as seen with the hammer-gorilla.
