In a village that is like the “First Village”, lived the innkeeper’s son, Ruth. In his previous life he had no affinity to women because he was a burly man but since he has become a handsome youth in this life, he is going to do his best (However, he still isn’t popular at all). At that time, he discovered that his childhood best friend, Alec, was a hero. And then, for some strange reason, Alec begged Ruth “Until I come home, please wait for me” …

There is a tale in the First Village where the famous people who were involved with the hero, Alec, came along one-by-one to cause trouble and approach Ruth, who was leisurely living out his life in the countryside.

    ML - What's up with this guy? I don’t get why he’s even considered the main love interest. He hardly shows up and has minimal interaction with the main character. He only appears when he wants to get intimate or do some erotic stuff with the MC. Then, poof, he disappears again...

    2nd and 3rd ML - No offense, but between the three, these two are much more suitable to be the main love interest than the primary one.

    MC - Yeah, a typical super oblivious human. The only thing I like about him is that he’s incredibly good-looking.

    I love it and I'm looking forward to the updates. The translation is easy to read and flows well. The main character is your typical dense but good-natured guy who tries (and fails) to flirt with women and is completely unaware of his popularity with men. I can't wait to see how everything will unfold, especially since so far, the main character hasn't been involved in any adventures and is just in his hometown, hearing stories about the hero.

    I'll be straight honest. MC is a huge dimwit. It's not his entire character that suffers, though. I do appreciate how he maintains a lot of wisdom, keeping a level head in the face of any adversary, whether an enemy or a domestic issue. However, he's just dumb in ways that don't make sense. So dumb that it knocks off a star.

    Aside from that, the story itself isn't bad. It's actually quite entertaining, especially with how the MC is stuck in his village and not embarking on an adventure. His role in helping out at the inn makes it logical that the story unfolds through the arrival of outsiders, be they adventurers or knights.

    Of course, we have to talk about the romance. It starts with a swing, hits the mark, but ultimately ends in a foul.

    Again, the MC is a dimwit to proportions I can't comprehend. But I genuinely look forward to seeing how the story progresses.

    I really enjoyed the plot and the way things are unfolding! I did cover my face a bit at how dense Ruth can be, but that’s part of his charm. The pacing is great, and the character interactions are super cute!

    I couldn't bring myself to finish this one. I liked the beginning and the setup, and Ruth (the main character) is sweet and adorable. I love him!

    But only 30 chapters in, and I already can't stand the male lead...

    He gets angry at how dense the main character is but doesn't do anything to clarify his feelings. And even when it becomes clear that the main character only sees the male lead as a friend and is straight, the male lead still doesn't stop pursuing him (not openly, of course, and still very angry that the main character doesn't realize). But the worst part (and the reason I stopped reading this novel) is the male lead raping the main character. How can anyone still hope for them to get together after that? It's not cute and not forgivable in my opinion. The male lead just makes me sick now.

    Really a great choice. The story was enjoyable to read, and this is one of those novels that left me eager to continue. I had to resort to spoilers just to ease my anticipation.

    Sure, here’s the rewritten content:

    **Plot:** 7/10, **Smut:** --/10 (half censored), **Angst:** 8/10

    I really enjoyed this novel and would rank it higher, but it stopped updating for such a long time. The main character (MC) is what makes it so funny and engaging. He's super oblivious and adorable, talking like an old sage who knows nothing at all. Plus, this novel seems to be a reverse harem. So far, there are three male leads (MLs), and my favorite has to be Daniel, followed by the hero (probably the main ML), and then the Knight guy. The Knight guy is so annoying that he made me drop the raws. Anyway, read this for 10/10 misunderstandings and a gorgeous uke.

    I tried to machine-translate this novel, but it's a bit off... I hope someone will pick this up soon 😭 I've been waiting for ages.
