A lot of stories don’t take into account “Honor among thieves.” Even for the impoverished (or just greedy) who are so desperate for resources that they’d steal from old women in broad daylight, you’d be hard-pressed to find someone who would deliver a solid kick to a child for convenience’s sake, especially being so cruel as to call the child “filthy” while doing so. Unless it turns out this thief has some unique circumstances, this feels out of place; as in, the thief stealing from the grandma (and in broad daylight, while kicking a child) exists solely for the plot, but doesn’t make sense for an in-world character to do otherwise.

At some point, it crosses into being rude when you put your partner on such a pedestal you ignore their feelings about you.

Bro already acknowledged she loved him last part, so he should stop thinking about worthiness and focus more on repaying her love in kind.
Some people just can't abide being a parasitic existence in a relationship of mutual affection. It turns what should be something wonderful, toxic. That doesn't mean he has a nothing to bring to this relationship, he just doesn't see it because of his low self-esteem.

Neither side has really defined what they value about the other. Nor has their relationship advanced to the point where sharing those kinds of feelings comes easily. And worse, a lot of authors and mangaka fail hard in writting such scenes.

have you ever even seen a real criminal, bro? :wooow: their whole thing is targeting from the weak and attacking 5-on-1
'cause, you know, if you try to intimidate someone stronger than you, you get a black eye instead of their wallet

You think a dirtbag being a dirtbag is out of place? There is no honor among thieves, that’s a white fantastical invention. Dirtbags act like dirtbag, you don’t leave a grandma destitute and then go “oh wait, I better be nice to her sweet grandchild”. Join us in reality my dude.

Looking forward to when his actual overpowered ability will be revealed, because obviously he has one.

Oooh, another hint supporting my theory. With Chia's comment "I've heard your swordsmanship is some of the best in your family's history" the theory that his two older brothers feel inferior to him (more likely that they fear losing their standing in the house) and are using their ability to use Blade Aura to trample his self-esteem so he doesn't even consider standing up to them. Meanwhile, his father probably loves and cherishes him but can't intervene too directly to avoid showing favoritism.

I'm enjoying the subtle worldbuilding too. No telling us "The people love him!" Just showing us "They trust and respect him"
