Its common sense to treat every unfamiliar person in an assault on your location as an enemy. If he was more blood thirsty and decided to kill the protagonist on sight which he can obviously do, he'd be unprepared and unguarded because "He wasnt sure"
Author, I honestly dont get you. You made that ashole Oliver look the some commando mage. When the MC actually does things that will make him look good, ie killing demons and such you don't actually write it you just mention it in a sentence, this is at least the second time (the first when he cleared a floor in the tower). You only write encounters when the MC appears weaker, incompetent or some how not in power, which is basically all the time since his is a slave, for all intent and purposes. Anyway, this is not for me, or anyone that like a powerful, competent MC (all the time), it doesn't help if he is gods gift to mages but when it counts you write him to be the weak side. good luck.
Good to say in my opinion your worst chapter so far. I don't understand why a guy who came in and is killing everyone he crosses for some stupid reason decides to spare the MC's life, the other because every time you put on a MC fight is he taking hits and not hitting them? it doesn't make sense, but hey is your story. Thanks for the chapter !!
