From what I read so far, Charity is still bad. If you do it from the distance, you are giving away your good luck (since Guy ran out of good luck). If you do it personally, you both run out of good luck and gather bad luck. What kind of BS is this?
I haven't got far. But the father-in-law thing development is the last straw that breaks the camel's back. For one, the MC is totally underserving of his background as a business man who achieved billion from zero. You do not achieve that much success with just good idea. You need good sense and good luck too. From the beginning till where I left, MC showed none of those. If he had good sense, he would have put on a disguise when he sell the manual the first time. That is a "hot" goods. He might not be attacked at the venue (the rules) but if he keep selling good stuff, sooner or later, people are going to tail him to see where is he getting the manual. And that appraiser who humiliated him the first time and pretty much banned him from the "good" market, MC could have easily deflected him if he just made a bet. "Hey you over there, read this book." The moment that book and it disappears, the MC could have forced the old man to cough up his money. It is the old man's "face" on the line. He is a reputable appraiser, how can he makes faulty appraisal and ruin this young man's business, people will think. This move might make enemy? That is what disguise is for... Finally, the waifu get moment. That city guard who wants to leave his daughter in good hand? Handing off his precious daughter to this rando guy he first met seems like a good idea. He didn't even know how well he will treat his daughter. The MC might be someone who beats his wife, who knows?
The MC is very unlikable and immature. I mean, so much for being the "kings of dragons" or what not. He is also very consistent. He killed himself because he lived long enough and there is no one to accompany him. He would have tried everything in his power then, to ensure that someone can stay with him. Like, what about trying to give immortality to his wife. Let's say that didn't work and he really tried everything, he would have been in despair. But then, after realizing his last option (death) didn't free him from suffering, he immediately bounced back. Okay... Then about arrogance, I believe the reaction of this sentence by other commenter "I don't practice arrogance," said it best. "I smell lies!" It might be exceptional circumstance, but instead of showing more thought into handling the situation, MC resorted to violence. Sure, he apologized (and normally people would have go about their way), but his emotional intelligence is so low as to be do something else other than provoke the other guy. What is so painful about lowering your head a bit and humoring the other guy? The the Sora Su...oh boi, she is a train wreck during her introduction. The first impression is struck up lady, willing to put her subordinates' lives on the line just to save a piece of treasure. Not a smart or gracious move. Then, her heel-face-turn when the MC showed his card. And the MC? I thought I would get to see the strange morality of someone who had lived for so long. After witnessing so much atrocity, yet be powerless to stop them all, I would expect a more mature outlook. Like...had he been more self aware..."I know I can't save everyone, so I save only those I can see. Selfish, yes, but as long as it makes me happy not seeing people suffer, sure." I would have been happy to see just this level of maturity and self-awareness.
A dumb thought if you think about it. If she thinks he is an expert, her standard of "good musician" will probably be just street performer to him. That is just an insult and really not the thing to be offered.
She finally shows her true color after the trouble passed. You would think that she would think twice before exploiting her junior. Try to play it as cute as you want, it is a distasteful conduct. I hope her master have a word with her.
Yes, let the heresy flows brother!
Yes...small steps corrupt! For the Ruinous Powers!
