This series is so stupid, I don't know why I bothered reading all those chapters.
The bandit chief with the glasses is surprised that they can see them because of the clearing barrier... But like what would you do if you were just invisible? The carriage would just go by, or the horses would walk over your weaklings
"The town guards will probably catch him" but how would they know he's a criminal, since he likely comes and goes out of town usually, and you aren't going after them or saying anything about it?
"Just what the hell were they doing in a place like this?" Well, they were blocking the road... Like, if they were trying to be sneaky, they would likely let the carriage pass by, they were specifically blocking the road... Do you know who blocks roads in the middle of the night? Yeah, that's right, bandits.
And that couple of definitely not suspicious people with skulls on their clothes were just able to cross the border, and they just had a friendly chat with the butler, letting MC know that they're after him? Yeah, super realistic...
