So... I assume it's either that MC's body is possessed by someone or something, someone faked being him and everyone believed it like morons, or MC's brother was really thorough in faking MC being alive, naming one of his own spawn (or a random dude he adopted) his brother's son.
So... Hasn't MC basically won already? Unless Mielle does a 180, dyes her hair into a zebra pattern and starts talking about how she matured, as far I can see MC is just going to go through the motions from now on. Mielle is basically a powerless noone now. MC is in a position where everything...
Guys cringing at the possibility of MC hooking up with the kid are merely pretending.
They knew exactly what they were signing up for when they read a comic with a romance tag and no other male characters in sight.

It's one of those situation where I wouldn't blame him if he just...
Oh shit that facial expression. The manga artist sure got my attention. I fucking love it when the manga artists contort the character faces in some inhuman ways during moments like this.
Wow. Wow. Wow. Every time you think "this asshole can't stoop any lower" he takes out a shovel, and starts digging a hole.
Even his right hand man that was more or less favorable towards the trashta was absolutely appalled by this asshole. Both the morality of it and the practicality of it...
