I have only gotten to ch 13, and the main female character is the worst. She summons the MC, threatens him, blame him for things that clearly weren’t his fault (always in hindsight), and he took an arrow to save someone life. If the MC doesn’t stand up for himself by the end of this book, I will be dropping this series. No point in following someone who bends over at every cough in his direction.
Edit: so, after finishing the book, the MC does change slightly. Just enough to see if book 2 will be any good. The girl is still the worst part of this book. I think the author was attempting a tsundere type character.
