I'm gonna check this thread later and if you people keep this playground act, I will start sending strongly worded letters.

Use the spoiler functions for future events, don't attack or insult people.

Man if only the mc actually questioned the hero he could really make him think about his actions.

"Hey hero, why are we evil? What have we ever done? Have you ever seen us do anything evil? Who told you we were evil? Have you ever gone out in the world to see it with your own eyes? How's the princess, is she still clinging to you? Whatever happened to that other guy who was summoned before you? Hope he's OK."

My god MC use your words. Even if the soldiers try to interrupt they're just helping your case. Make him think.

Well time to drop this, I'm beyond tired of dipshit MC's that refuse to kill enemies.

??? how slow is he that he couldn't kill the hero within six whole dialogues wtf

this is sometimes what i hate, larx was spared all because of plot smh

if the MC is truly strong, be it melee or range, he could've just severe the hero's head using magic since it's faster considering he doesn't need any chanting(iirc)
like.. the shit head guy literally shouted "we surrender", that could be his cue that cutting the hero's head is a race against time and yet mc just fucking stood there lmao
He should just: ahh.. my hand is numb and the sword accidentally lop his head.

Well the character with the "Hero" title always has plot armor that protects them.

He stopped it because they surrendered. If he killed him then it might have ended in political trouble.
Mc swings his sword and stops it next to hero's neck on page 23. There are movement lines and even a sound effect. The opposing noble mentions "surrender" on page 25.

MC stops his sword to say a couple lines of dialogue and dramatically lifts his sword for a final strike in between these 2 events. Doesn't get the chance to swing his sword at hero's head for a second time, since the duel ends while he's lifting his sword.

So my interpretation is the mc could have beheaded the hero on page 23 if he wanted to, but stopped himself. The duel wasn't over until page 25. Mc needlessly talked, and then moved around to set up for a second strike, giving the other side time to end the duel.

"My opponent may be the hero but I will not falter!"

\>holds back from killing the hero to tell him he's lost first

is the horse male or female? one time its he, than she
The Warhorse is a fragment of Chuck Norris that got ..existentialised.. in this world when it inadvertently round-kicked the Barrier between Worlds.
It is neither male nor female. It doesn't need to be since it's unique and there won't ever be another of it.
It's also still 100% Chuck Norris.

This is canon, and you can't convince me otherwise. :p

He didn't communicate with or kill the hero because that's how these stories work. This whole chapter was so paint-by-numbers cliched that it might as well have been written by a shonen action manga AI trained on the most cliched shonen manga ever written. I honestly can't believe anyone would be surprised by this turn of events, it's so predictable and standard.
Oh, I don't think we are suprised.

That said, this isn't standard shonen... this is standard web novel BS....

Proper shonen manga actually have much higher standards than Web Novels.... mainly because they come from a professional space from the start... while web novels are basically original novels written by random fans... so they are closer to fan fiction.

And these publications then turn these fanfic novels into actual novels (with some edits to have a slightly higher quality) and then a manga which is usually a bit better than the novel because it is faster paced and doesn't have a lot of the excess....

And usually, the web novels that are this dumb are often the ones that try hard to be serious and have overly serious themes (like drama, racism, slavery, war, and etc) and end up screwing their story over with complex themes they don't have the writing skills to actually do...

The ones that are good are usually light hearted, have no overly complex plot, no real antagonist and are focused more on fun and maybe even harem/slice of life... and own it...
