I wouldn't.
Dude who died tried to feed him to the dogs while he escaped. The shady guys tried to murder him.
No cause for guilt there. To me, anyway.

MC big brain

Completely didn't twig that he was walking around with his spear.

Easy money!

So it's a pyramid scheme. Only top guy has any actual power, everyone else just gets a percentage. And by the time you get to footsoldiers, it's not even a big enough percentage to trigger mc's succ.

Of course it was his power that tainted it! Can't believe I didn't call that...

Kill 'em all and use the succ!

Gonna lose the (obviously tainted) prize if you fall asleep there, bro.

Damn

Hello, walking cliché.

Damn. His blind "friend" is fine.

Ngl, manhwa protagonists all seem to have really, REALLY unfortunate starts.

He may be a con artist who eventually became the ultimate bad guy, but i'm having a hard time condemning him for it.

Amend previous statement.
He was a baddy from crap upbringing. Not JUST getting betrayed/bailed on.

So, just from this, I'm guessing that in "the past", regressor dude bailed on MC and sent him down the wrong path, leading to complete annihilation. And he didn't even remember doing it.
But now we're gonna get the "good guy" version.
Kinda 'meh' that i'm not gonna see the bad heavenly demon, but it's not a terrible opening chapter. Let's see where it goes.

One of his old subordinates?

Right? That's where my mind went.

How bad can you underestimate an opponent? "Villain in name" lol.
Dude's got more identities than he has sets of clothes and tentacle gods lining up to help him.
That despair was

I don't get that admin. He wants MC to take over his position, so he's going to make the floors harder which may result in him dying?

I had that thought. Glad I wasn't alone.
