There's the first one at the mall, where they took all the glory and this bastard got quite miffed at our MC for taking charge instead of doing what he wanted to.
Those are the events.

But he had a good enough idea that he even went and declared he was sure twas MC to the police.

Of course, our MC had a good alibi.

I ABSOLUTELY recognized that COMMANDO reference.
Gotta love how much of a movie nut is this mangaka.

They've clashed at every interaction.Last one was when, during the auction, this bastard tried to stop MC for stealing and was convinced twas him (but couldn't pin him down)

What a TWIST!!
The original soul owner was in hell all along!!!!

He used the thing! The thing!!

Fair enough.

Such an honest reaction.

I reckon it's more of a panic move. Is not like the can sit down and compare right and wrongs... but rather, knowning wife and daughter are been hunter, he would go with what would be the most "common" safe route.

If the wife wasn't lost at this point they could've stopped for a second to think what's the best course of action and, as you say, realize leaving her behind might no be that smart.

He might try to hunt them down saying they brought this creature into the world or some shite like that.
After all, he has a vendetta against the husband too.

But I'm willing to bet it'll backfire hard on him.

Heck yeah!

And dang, that "Concede" skill feel very in line with what would happen to lil Seol-Ah in that other timeline, huh.

He is thinking about her daughter tho.

And while she's a powerful wizard, she has next to no experience dealing with the stress of battle.

If he's gonna take her, it's gonna be in a more controlled space... and that is not him frantically looking for the wife.

This manwha is all about the good ol' romantic version of knighthood, and I freaking LOVE IT.

That was masterfully done I freakin love this mangaka xD

And these are ghouls so it's probably hard to put them down (I don't know the details of this world, but usually you can't just put them down unless you destroy their head, burn them to ashes, pulverize them or go HOLY POWER on their asses)

I swear this is GOOD.

I feel that the part before this could've... not, should've been shortened.

Whatever "social" message the author was trying to give us, it really was badly timed. You cannot expect the readers to enjoy a stop of the action in a SHOUNEN MANGA during what's supposed to be the FINAL BATTLE.

You have them as the pre-amble or something that's related to how the big shots of the story is related to.

I do love that we, at first, saw the younger brother being destructive as the oddity... but no, it's a family thing.

She's quite the great partner, huh!

Giving her that "Intuition" skill really is pairing well with a person with trust issues too~

I was legit worried he would have to let it happen because of his cover but DAMN that was a nice save and a NICE MOVIE REFERENCE!!!!

Now that we theory crafted... I hope there IS an answer and is not just left as "he is just an ass" haha

SO FREAKING CUTE, AH!!!
