If you didn't understand I'll break it down for you
Before transcendence
• Vicount helped patriarch set the foundation of the family
• Patriarch put on the circles
• Vicount jealously stacked unstable circles to stay by his side
• Vicount's health starts to decline due to the turbulent mana damaging his body
• As the family grew more powerful, they gained more allies
• under pressure from feeling guilty, the Vicount needed a way to not be abandoned
• Vicount uses the son to be in a position where it's hard to do anything because nobility can't go back on their word
• Patriarch becomes ill
• family elders fighting causes mages to leave
• Demon God cronies offered "something" to the vicount who was nearly dead from the long term instability
• Demon God cronies take over family and Vicount surrenders

Present
• Mc fixes his circle problem
• Mc is going to teach him how to stack circles the right way
• Mc puts Vicount as his student through mana-contract

Mc successfully punishes his father's friend and vassal while stopping the possibility of the collusion with Demon God. Killing a vassal or excessively harming them would not only earn the ire of the patriarch but also unilaterally earn the distrust and dissolution of the other vassals. It's not like he was evil, just refused to fight because he didn't want to be abandoned or in the worst die.

u do know it's done on purpose right? Like the snake eyes where he clasps his hands together being a suck-up. It's like how some manga uses chibi to express cute.

Wait.... If the crown prince was suddenly evil, Momon killed 900 cadets, and the life vessel was missing... Could the prince of the past really be Momon

That's not true.
• kill the disloyal after freeing them
• convert them to his own ranks
• attempt to discover origins as some were kidnapped into slavery
• assert authority (show the lesser nobility they can be dealt with if they choose)
• after rebellion, he could see their worth

If we think about what was said before "This world has a lot of weak monsters" then you arrive at your answer.

The power scaling is different. Beginners in his time were more than likely B-rank in his time.

67 now

They do use gender specific language when used as a status (older sister, patriarch) but in cases like these, often times the mix up comes from what you said.

At least from the little ik

Unless this is a joke...

You missed a major line. what made it so hard was people kept being brainwashed. As more and more people went in, the dungeon was gradually filled with stronger and stronger slaves. It wasn't the dungeon itself. It was the mechanic. At present, it only B-rank

Doesn't reveal stealth bc he doesn't wanna do risky missions

Proceeds to create risky missions for himself

my god this was great

cops use this same trick

First, living in a house that abides by hierarchy through corporal punishment isn't that bad. If you developed psychological issues because of this, it's called being soft. I can understand how these types of people might feel as I myself was repressed for a time. But looking at it the other way, you were a child who mouthed off to their elders and refused to abide by the house rules. I was too and was thrown out saying I'm not related anymore.

But we aren't talking about someone who abuses others in the story. We are talking about a character who was willing to sacrifice something important to her to be able to live a better life. Someone who believed their one-sided love interest was in paradise and had already abandoned her. Paradise, a place she could never go so long as she's blind.

Now, how far would you go to improve your life?

If you wouldn't cross any moral grounds, then you've obviously never been in a position where dying would seem better, you're lying to yourself, or you're lying to us.

This is what happens when society births people who lack empathy. They don't understand what it's like to be cripple. Yeah the government will provide stipends to BARELY live but at the cost of phantom pain (limb loss), blindness (imagine a world that you can't read, play games, or watch tv for spare time that you have in spades), have no one to fall back on, ect

Most people cant empathize even a little, so they stick to their morals looking through rose tinted glasses

pretty much guessed.. With the title was foreshadowing, what is said has had direct links to many upcomming events from frames to chapters and even seasons

I said it earlier in the story, but it's not like he is a su chef but that doesn't mean he didn't learn to cook. It's important to learn how to balance flavors, how to use a grills, flat tops, ect. There are tons of pastries that require cooking techniques and tons of meals that require baking techniques

Hes made apple pie, and just got sugar before he had to participate in guarding. I'm sure as the novel progresses, the more prosperous his territory will become. The richer they are, the more they have to afford confectionary. Remember, this isn't about cooking but the MC achieving his dream of being the best patsíer in the world. He may know how to cook, but it's not like he is a seui chef either.

The fact that he lives in a small broke territory during medieval advancement period was your first sign that it'll take at least 20-30 chapters before he can have the opportunity to make sweets. Obviously, he needs to advance his wealth while the novel shows world building

the info yes, but he's "sworn to secrecy" on the parts that would make those hundreds of thousands. Because of that, the stuff he gave to the character is only worth thousands as acquisition can't be revealed, but he keeps the stats

ESRB would tell you the kid shouldn't be playing mature games. It's the game company's anti-suit contingency plan. Which is humorous because they still chat ban you for swearing in mature games

I mean, she defeated a guy with 30% less levels with 50% less stats on top of that.

me too... I just wanna be able to edit my character cuz nobody wanna see wrinkly gramps running around
