Maybe, but that would just be pure power fantasy. From this chapter and synopsis, this manga seems to want to explore a couple tropes: chosen one, ordinary person placed in extreme situations, manipulating storylines, and the personality of a hero and a wannabe hero.

Granted, can't gleam the quality of this manga from the first chapter nor are those tropes unique in the Isekai genre. But neither is changing the story for a better outcome.
I feel like it would be better if stuff slowly changed, creeping towards the climax of her dying. Instead we are doing the good old "Someone who the readers don't care but the character does is dead in chapter 1, just for the purposes of motivation" which is fine but not good.

Killing the heroine(?) in the same chapter as her first appearance is just cheap trick.
The author should have wait like after 6 or 7 volume while making it obvious that she's the main heroines, before killing her.
Now that will really give the reader a lot of impact.
Yeah i agree the reality hit was good but u felt nothing for the girl nor the mc like give me some introduction

New girl has appeared in the latest raw chapter.
I wonder if she will stay alive for long or not.

Honestly, I would be happy to just have traditional kind hero (himmel style) doing his journy towards happy ending. But midway through, i already feel shit would go down for the worst for him

Oh when it started pointing out the cliches I thought it might get interesting.

look promising so far, with him being cocky and let one of the heroine die, now will it continue with him screw up various events because he changed the outcome or it just gonna be regular "OP MC" now?
It seems more like this is headed toward a strong body, weak mentally protagonist type of story, with his weaknesses focusing around his mental health

If you try to follow the author's concept and tried that kind of change, you would have ruined the whole story entirely. Smh when people say things like this that doesn't make sense. If he were to be able to clear battle events normally with no issues until 6 volumes later, how would a failure later on make MC suddenly think that the failure was due to indulging and deviating from Luke's personality? This is an RPG, those are still battles with variables. The whole reason he made the realization is because this was a scripted kill in a tutorial battle that ends with the skill usage. It's a battle that was impossible to lose yet he lost.

Yay!
Finally, an asshole shitbag MC (as defined by treating people as if they are tools or "NPCs"), getting exactly what he should always get:
A lesson in cause and effect.

Cause: you decided these weren't really people, compared to you.

Effect: you got to learn that people exist.

And yes, it is absolutely 100% your fault; you literally bragged about how you didn't need to try because it will all work out for you, so you got exactly what you demanded.

Yay for you, MC.
