Lonely Attack on a Different World - Vol. 2 Ch. 13

@cor3zone
But in a direct comparison, i.e. girl's lightning vs. MC's lightning, the girls win easily at the moment.
That might be his perception. Their magic might even look flashier with higher level skills. But a little exert from the novel end of chapter 2.

Those stats better than doubled from a single level up. It was all 10s except for luck before. Chances are other people's stats aren't increasing that radically from a single level up. Now he's level 7 assuming he didn't level up since 2 chapters ago.

Now the girls with magic probably even have a higher skill level with it. But they can kill fish with it. He can kill orcs. He likely has higher base stats and thus can do more damage even with a lower skill level. Lets say for example (just assuming crap),
at skill level 1 you do damage as Int x 0.9
at skill level 5, you do damage as Int x 1.15
Now suppose he's Int 100 (assuming the same gain of 15 per level).
100 x 0.9 = 90 damage
Lets assume a level 20 girl gained 3 Int per level, so she has 67 Int.
67 x 1.15 = 77.05 damage
You might even assume the higher level skills have a greater AOE etc, but it still won't overcome a large difference in base stats.

Those girls are gaining levels much easier/faster than the MC is and presumably with little to no real effort til now. They are sitting at a higher level by far. Yet they're shocked by his fight with the orcs. The geeks from earlier (who are far more competent than the girls here) seemed to consider the orc a tough opponent. They've been putting in effort, probably have much higher levels still, and have real gear. They fight in a party formation.
MC has a stick(?) and killed the orcs like child's play. He is clearly more than a match for the entire geek party. And the geek party would wipe the floor with those girls.

The MC hasn't realized yet that he's the greatest cheat there. He thinks everyone else got to choose from great skills and he got stuffed with bad ones and even some demerits. But they're all useful, and he got stuffed with them. It isn't just that he has greater potential. He's greater right here, right now.
 
@bk3k I judge this manga on its own merit, meaning any info from the novel is meaningless. So, I disagree with you on principle.
 
The skill of Jack of all trades wouldn't be that much help in the endgame content but he has other skills too. So, how is he not a cheat?
 
@WoodyCyber Every single one of these kids is "armed" in some way now and could have a variety of motivations nobody else knows about. Completely sensible to not trust anyone too quickly.
 
I don't know what Luck does in this setting... but the most common thing to hinge on luck is usually Crit Rate.

Odds are every single one of his hits is a Critical. This dude is rolling a D20 with 20 on every face.
 
I believe the "Loner" here is just a nickname, like an "insult" you call to an always alone person. I think the right description for him is Introvert. And you probably won't call someone Introvert as a nickname right?
 
He definitely got the cheat skills. And he forgot his luck is MAXED OUT. which is why he can defeat monsters so easily.
 
Rule #1 of the harem route: never let any males into your group. Even if they do not aim for your girls and are useful, because they do not serve as cocksleeve material.
