I’m reading “Death Delayed for a Short Time Because of the Will” at the same time as this one and that webtoon does such an incredible job of talking about the trauma that the MC went through in the dungeon, and i feel so spoiled and dejected bc I come over to this manga with practically the same plot and the mc has like no trauma from the most horrific stuff happening idk i shouldn't read them at the same time i guess

If you read it properly, the MC clearly has trauma from what he has experienced. It's just that in the past no one really cared abt him as a person but only the strongest hunter so he did explain that there's nothing to really feel bad abt as he was always alone. Also as the strongest hunter, he kept fighting and fighting for everyone but barely anyone truly cared about him bcs they only cared about themselves in terms of safety and his power, smth like "since you're the strongest, you're supposed to protect us". So he kinda accepted his death but now if you've seen affect effects of traumas, he's very dependent on himself, never trusts anyone and can't really bond with people as himself. Hence the ml is perfect for him bcs he always refuses others but ml is very pushy bcs he cares abt mc :3.

Agreeing with the above. In the novel, there’s moments like MC almost having a panic attack (or maybe he is or smth) at the thought of having to go back to the dungeon he escaped in Ch 1, or him acknowledging how he’s always running away because of what he experienced
MC does his best, desperately so sometimes, to live a peaceful life outside of the spotlight, and I think it’ll become more apparent why as we go through the novel events and learn more about his backstory. This story is definitely one of those ones that starts out pretty lighthearted and comedic before getting into any of the depressing stuff. MC most definitely has problems from what he experienced, though I’m not sure how well the webtoon will do in depicting it

At first I didn’t like the ML’s reaction to the red hair guy but then I thought about it and tbh it probably would be worse if he just led the guy on. He’s slightly cold but he’s made several hinting advances on him so I think its better to cut it off before he gets false hope. I HATE the strung along second lead trope that only comforts the ML when their down. But I did hate how sad the red haired cutie looked tho bc I actually like him. I don’t think ML is a bad guy though just bc he thinks more logically than emotionally. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
i literally started crying on the frame of him turning to kwon jihan ╥﹏╥ oh my gosh
