So not only did the mc's father, a literal noble, know mc was being bullied (by some commoner's son) and allow it. But he also owns the land the bully's father exploits to earn money, presumably letting them use it for (mostly) free (they still pay taxes ofc)? Meaning he is effectively feeding his son's bully out-of-pocket? And can at any time "fire" the kids father, meaning the kid is bullying his father's boss's son? That feels like an outright idiotic thing for the bully to do, for the bully's father to allow, and like abuse that mc's father decided to let it happen.
