Right, how should I describe this? Right, this is more or less an incoherent mess that makes no sense.The MC acts like an overworked 40 years old salaryman yet has the mentality of an irresponsible 15 years old kid. I get it that it pains being kicked out but why would you remove the all the sealing barriers on A and S rank monsters? Aren't you the one who chose to seal them without telling a thing to anyone? Yeah, you just did your job and now you didn't want to anymore. Okay. But like, you're the one who sealed them right? Why not just kill those monsters while they are still sealed? Shouldn't that be simple? All his equipments are legendary rank.Next is the hero party. They are so comically dumb that I question how did they climb to their curent position. This isn't an anime where inner monologue is cut down to the bare minimums but I barely see any planning between them. All they did was charging in like some early mobOne manga I recently read on a whim which coincidentally has more or less similar plots, about a curse item maker being chased out unfairly because of the bad image of curse item makers and he also (seemingly) undoes all his curse enchantments on his ex teammates after being chased out. So why would I mention it? Cause in that work the MC actually does the job he's expected to! I don't know what noble resolve you have, those who hire you expects you to do the work you're given. If you see more pressing problems that must be done, tell them first. People can't read your mind like stalkers following JKs.If anyone wants to argue that he manages their equipments, then yes, he did a very great job at that. But the mage Misha said he's hired to make rare equipments from monster mats, and he seems to have ignored it completely.The act of releasing sealing barriers itself is, to be fair, not really something I would criticize. Yes, it causes massive damage to the country but the one you hire to do that is no longer employed anymore, so he removes it. If that was the plot, it would've been fine. Yet, the barrier was something he voluntarily put on, while not consult it to anyone and dispels it because he simply "isn't an adventurer anymore". It would be a bit of a stretch to call him a villain, but an irresponsible one, he definitely is.In conclusion, I would give it one star for the cardboard plot and poor execution.
