@anon You just exposed the core issue without realizing it. You defend the MC by saying "they get paid", "they can leave", "he can do what he wants". That's a classic corporate cop-out: as long as the contract is fulfilled, there's no moral weight, no responsibility. But here's the truth: economic dependence isn't freedom. It's the exact opposite.
You admit the blonde is dependent on that salary. So no, she can't just leave. She has no leverage. She's stuck working her a** off for a guy who couldn't care less. He gives her crumbs while burning piles of cash on useless artifacts like a manchild with a gacha addiction. And you call that independence? That's not freedom - that's neo-feudalism wearing a silk glove.
This guy lives off others. Not by stealing, but by making them invisible. He doesn't oppress - he lets them submit. He offloads responsibility, expects loyalty, and gives nothing in return but cold indifference and the luxury of his detachment.
Now let's talk about that deleted message. "The guy is dead so who cares". Really? That's your bar? The MC knowingly erases a message from a valuable artifact - something that could've boosted his reputation, opened social doors, brought him benefits without compromising anything. He destroys it out of pure apathy. Or worse: pride. And you applaud that?
This isn't a genius. He's not a self-made man. It's an aristocratic slùt for comfort, wearing the mask of an independent soul. He doesn't carry his own weight - others do it for him while he pretends to float above them all. And you relate to that? Maybe because you'd love the perks of superiority without ever earning the burden of leadership.
He's not a role model. He's a passive narcissist, coasting on the labor of people who don't have the luxury to walk away. And what you're praising here isn't freedom - it's well-dressed parasitism.

If violence doesn't solve your problems, it's because you haven't hit hard enough.
