@Dark Flower Owe, not own. Watch your phone's autocorrect.

The protagonist didn't have advance warning of who would be the Sins and what they'd do. Nor did he have advance information on how to handle the descended outer g**. As many a regression and other stories show, advance information is beyond price in preventing problems.

Also remember the original genre was dark fantasy -hope is precious, dark conclusions are the rule.

But the protagonist can't even do what little positive he was able to do unless he has his booster artifacts or their equivalent.

@Galactic Navy Officer
My bad, English is my fourth language, it wasn't my phone's autocorrect...but it's laughable how that "owe" correction meant for sarcasm is the only correct thing you said

He doesn't OWE the OG protagonist anything. Transmigrating isn’t theft, he didn’t steal in the traditional sense, and whatever he acquires belongs to the circumstances he’s in. Dark fantasy rewards cunning and survival, not fairness or past ownership. Claiming he “owes” something is just a moral opinion, not a rule. The story shows that the original protagonist failed, while the MC not only survived but took the future villains under his wing and supported the OG protagonist. That’s the world rewarding action and foresight, not enforcing some moral debt. What he did was pragmatic and strategic, any “owedness” is just an opinion, not a rule.

@Galactic Navy Officer I mean, if we are putting the logic that MC owes the OGP something bcuz he took the artifacts that were meant for the protag, then it should be cancelled out with the fact that he took out some of the major villains from him too
