Yup a pure power fantasy. Not shocked about the mc being like this since the 3rd round had him choosing to fight against the boss at the expense of other players. Most of his actions have been pretty manipulative too. Definitely a character that can cause a mixed reaction. Honestly, as long as they don't do that thing they did in the 3rd round, (where a bunch of players started calling mc kind out of nowhere bc of like one sentence), I'll probably keep reading. On that note, personally I do hope there's at least one other developed unique character and that there are more scenes with his brother (the only character he seems to actually care about).
