happened again....the "MC" took the backside while the "side character" was the main element....really feel like Nela should have been the actual lead if author was gonna make the MC this useless. unless, if you wouod have just done away with Brayton and have Nela be the MC as the Daughtet who inherited the Viscounty, it would have zero effect to the story....thats how useless the MC has been so far
I apologise for not making the main character omnipotent from the start of the novel but I do not intend to write a story like that. Braydon will not start out being a genius after years of neglect by his father which has already been mentioned by this point in the story. He has a certain skillset to start out with, that is being good at fighting. Being a lord is not all fighting all of the time. He will be out of his element in more social and managerial roles to begin with. Rhydian is a mentor character for Braydon, he is meant to be strong and competent. And Nela is meant to be a naturally smart person, just because the MC does not have 600 iq does not mean that he is a useless character. Literally 3 things have happened by this point in the story, 1 of them include the MC's skillset.
