I went in with severe pessimism since I hate mercenary/bodyguard/butler/assassin/soldier protagonists with passion (narrows it down for me quite a bit hey? :)) but at the beginning I was pleasantly surprised it was a decent read thought out author wasn't just spouting nonsense characters weren't completely one-dimensional the female character wasn't extremely annoying the male character wasn't completely spineless and there were some darker themes as well. Then there was a bit too much focus on racism bad which I find a bit tiring at this point but whatever... the breaking point was the last chapter I read Spoiler
where the protagonist completely folded like a bit*h in a situation where he wasn't at fault in the slightest in front of the witch just for "comedic" purpose.
[collapse] I read way too many japanese novels to bother reading any further. It has harem elements and that doesn't help either.The translation is good.
