"Brat"...? That's kinda weirdly out of character/insulting for him to call a plant that even if it's just an 'alarm' bell lol

Of course he woke up with a cat on his lap. I'm only mildly surprised that the cat wasn't sleeping on his chest instead, but mostly because that means he must have somehow fallen asleep with his legs crossed.

I hate this dude. Although, his little explanation of how the recent success came from pure luck was nice, it was not a good enough reason for how dull his is. He was written to be dull. Hes a nice guy but why is he kind? No depth at all. But the setting is still interesting for me tho.

other than some psychopath MCs, maybe the korean writers/webtoon/manhua artists don't like having an 'arrogant lead' tho that seems popular in romances and such lol

For a guy who sells things, he didn't do any research. For someone who owns his own store shouldn't that be like #1. How many hunters are scalping his stuff?

tbf he started out just selling stuff based on leftover scraps /in the wake of other adventurers, at least he's not given it away for free

(tho idk if he had a job before this or was with his family or so because i'm sure plenty of ppl would have 'normal' supply stores too rather than specifically for hunters unless everyone quit their 'normal 'job and decided to be a hunter versus office worker)

Sure he got scraps but he must have done some kind of research to know if his prices are high/low in comparison to others. Unless he didn't and he's somehow surviving by randomly pricing things...?

Just comes off as really odd. Like he has to account for rent/taxes on the building, electricity, the amount of labor/time he's putting in and what profit he needs to you know keep living. If he's rich then it doesn't matter but for something that's probably his livelihood you have to do research.

Sure this stuff is new stuff never before seen on the market but if you know potions cost $20 you wouldn't price better, more advanced potions at $10. You price them at $25-40 depending on effects and then play around with the price a little to see what people are willing to pay. Or something along those lines.

This just felt too careless to be from someone who seems to have had his own store for a while.

Probably too much realism for this type of story but it shouldn't completely break believability either.

yeah i don't think they're gonna get too number crunchy on stuff (ppl were criticizing that other one to go between words about him suddenly having jewels/not paying taxes or so), but later on i know he basically does get a ton more 'essences' from the beetles and such

maybe daily life in korea is cheap, there's no tragic backstory about his parents being murdered by monsters or so, so i assume he chooses to live on his own or so
