Yeah, they had us in the first round but then SOMEBODY had to pop a boner over their childhood friend SEEMINGLY getting molested and he lost ALL THE POINTS. Too bad he can't sit IN the cuck chair if it happens next chapter. Wait ... that might be a reward for THAT GUY, LOL.
Or he'll just make her fall for him on the next few chapter and with how they wrote the childhood friend up like that I'd say it's very likely, I mean she literally setting her self up deciding to sleep with him like that. I don't really think he's gonna let her go tbh.
WN readers that can spoil what the TL was talkin bout on the last page- what happens with the heroine trio? The way its worded made me think some real fucked shit at first but then again I could be over thinking it lmao
Absolutely wheezing at this chapter turning the manga into an NTR doujin. Lil bro popping a boner is the cherry on the cake. I hope Scarlett stays after she sleeps with Sei.
This childhood friend is the actual reincarnation of the MC of Rent a Girlfriend except he's ACTUALLY about to be cucked😂, instead of just imagining it🤣
That is a very significant part of the narrative, so doubt that will change.
The manga is certainly a reboot where MC feels much stronger than his novel counterpart. This is because the novel starts at Sei's reincarnation, so we follow all his story, his family, his relationship as the heir of a noble family, his survival of an assassination plotted by his own family, his random adventures where he met new women (and a gay prince troupe), his first love, his first great loss, and that's where the manga started.
The manga starts a bit like OPM, with an experienced adventurer, but while the manga follows his abilities as they grew through the story, the manga goes over the top, with someone that looks like a super veteran. The relationships are also funnier.
Sei being left is part of the story, first he interacted with women knowing his stay would be somewhat temporary, later he fell in love, but then he felt the loss, and now, as much as he expects the girls to stay with him, they don't.
Zoffy in the manga usually mentions her former master, she will find him again, and will leave Sei. Because the master has money after all.
I can't remember how Scarlett leaves.
The adventurer Warrior girl that tried to stop Sei before ends up with a newbie adventurer, as sh teaches him the tropes.
Only the nun remains... But for how long?
She leaves him too, MC thinks she didn't like him after all, but she leaves for the opposite reason, and becomes a powerful Yandere who has to leave her love's side for some time to handle some "annoyances"
The main thing is that, he starts to believe he can't find or deserve love anymore after the loss of his loved one.
But there are women searching for him (who was declared dead), one is an Hero girl who he met when he was young, she appears later, and from there, his younger sister and former fiancee learn that he is alive, and get in action.
on a completely different note, my impression of Scarlet's childhood friends were that they were older and more mature, did not expect him to be depicted as a horny teenager.
There's also the second CHF. I kinda expect her to get jealous of Scarlett and how she's changed, pull some bullshit, and getting Sei involved after Scarlett leaves to come help her.
Yeah it was very bizarre and out of character for Scarlett to just let Sei grope her all over like that, especially in front of her childhood friends. Not only that but Scarlett just stripping and throwing herself at Sei is also out of character and seems very much like author meddling to have some sex with a character that was otherwise uninterested in that stuff (if not outright averse).
Like "well she's leaving the party for story reasons so we gotta have at least one sex scene before she's put on a bus". I could have hand waved it away if Sei was the one who brought up using her body as payment since it would be in character for him to be a horn dog and "jokingly" ask and she surprisingly accepts but the fact that SHE is the one who offers herself up unprompted is kind of shitty writing.
I know it's a mistake expect actual decent characterization in a wish fulfillment smut manga but when it's this egregious and there are plenty of other characters that were written to be just as horny as Sei to begin with it gives whiplash to have the one character who didn't fall into that trope suddenly 180.
There's also the second CHF. I kinda expect her to get jealous of Scarlett and how she's changed, pull some bullshit, and getting Sei involved after Scarlett leaves to come help her.
Knowing this manga, the second CHF will also be conquered by Sei with basically zero effort if they bother keeping those characters around longer than just for an NTR/NTS gag.
That why WN reader will kinda of suffer about this manga adaption ver...since we not sure on how many part will same as WN and how many part will be not
