I rly fail to see his motivation to keep those savegaes near him he has unlimited amount of loyal man that won't run to ur enemy as soon as ure deafed, yet he still keeps them near, while all they can do is pillage and fight, which is the least important things when it comes to creating ur own kingdpm..
Well maybe he just likes them not everyone wants to do things as efficient as possible that would just turn boring so he is just doing what he thinks is fun and he was more thrown into the position and just kept it as he liked it. So yeah the smart thing to do is only keep villagers, but that is just not the preference of the MC and the author(I think), which I understand.
