Nice to see the PTSD happen post killing like what usually happens after the adrenaline has dropped.

The 3month time jump was suprising though.
Yeah, but no, just need to remember what the nearly +30 people that trying to kill the MC they will do, if he said "Please forgive I have a Daughter, I have traumatic nightmares, and I am nice person, please spare my life" (Just hearing that phrase the former party he was before, they will have mercy of end the MC life)

Oh boy, I hope the money (or maybe something else?) pouch wont bring him more troubles. Living off the land was kinda cool but I want more of the world building since he is in a new country after all, not expecting crazy differences between the old one and this one though, looking at the aerial view, probably just a smaller village-ish with a border outpost or a post town.

I do think that killing people that are after you because of petty reasons like "you are strong" or "I want your money" is a bit different from killing someone that is after you since "you are a wanted criminal". Yajin wouldn't know, but those lads seemed like a bunch of regular adventurers that simply got unlucky when taking a job.
Yajin might also be worried about the reason why he killed them. In the other cases he could have argued to himself that it was okay since it was in self-defense. This time, even if they were the ones looking for him, he was the one to start the fight. Did he kill them simply to lessen the amount of pursuers he had? Or was it to get the gear they were carrying? Only Yajin would know.

"Was killing them necessary?" is the question, I believe.

Honestly it kinda was, if he let that guy live he'd get info back to the persuers so it was a damned if he did damned if he didn't. Yajin started the fight but wasn't it against a corrupt person?

Mind you the stuff man had has helped Yajin greatly too so I like how MC is so conflicted himself over it. I'm assuming the daughter will come into the series later in some way.

i get he's good at karate but really? your fighting strategy in a life or death battle is to distract them with your knife just so you can punch them?
So far in the series it looks like that world doesn't have standard forms of hand to hand combat, just brawling in what basically amounts to a bar fighter's style.

If you can keep the opponent focused on the shiny, sharp weapon, then they wouldn't expect a punch from the other hand that can easily break stacked bricks.

And he's walking straight into a trap. How can he be so naive?

I would like to add to that;
Yajin probably needs to add to it with something like a rope or chain for a jury-rigged balisong, just to increase his range, although I think I remember him practicing knife throwing in earlier chapters.
