@grandygon
it was shown from the start that he isnt unaware of the girls, im just glad they spelled it out for all the people that shout beta this and alpha that.
On a side note. I feel Rude is already good step above most fantasy Mcs for being aware for other girls attracted to him. He just has more important priorities ( being his sister and his work duties) that he feel he cant put enough obligation to a relationship.
I kinda respect that though I do know it might change somewhere down the line
I'm confused where did the talk of Rude being a Rank F Adventurer come from? Did something happen off screen since I can't see Rude being a Rank F Adventurer. Unless they took away his rank after being kicked out of the Hero Party which is hard for me to believe.
@Airantu it was explain in the first chapter that he mainly did labyrinth diving and never really work for the guild so his rank was still F even though he was in one of the top party.
@Airantu it is mention in earlier chapters that Rude never took quests from the guild or reported his achievements to the guild while in a party with the hero, so he never increased his rank.
@Jergens or they could be hand me downs that can be refitted because there (oddly) seems to be a competent blacksmith in the village?
Plus you know, communal ownership could be a thing, particularly in a world setting where magical monsters exist, so of course defense funds would be greater than your average earth village and defenders would be more competent. So not necessarily hard, especially if MC brings home dungeon loot from time to time.
