You Can’t Be Fierce Towards Me! Chapter 74 Discussion

I wanted to like this novel but the author made the MC literally have all the characteristics of a 12 year old girl instead of a 17 year old male. The MC lived into his 30's before he was sent back to fix the tragedy of his life. You would think someone who suffered injustice for over 14 years would be more... mature.. but all you get is a 17 year old who cries at the drop of a hat and if he gets poked bruises. It just came across very weird to me. I wouldn't mind a crybaby sissy of a MC if only his mental age wasn't 30ish and he wasn't supposedly suffering hardships for 14 years??

Second issue I have with this novel is a spoiler :

So the MC's suddenly gains a special power after cutting his hand. He can talk with plants. I don't have an issue with a suddenly appearing power... my issue is with the execution. This power has no point within the story besides being used as a plot device VERY RARELY in the story. The MC doesn't seem concerned about the powers origin and doesn't use it in any way, shape or form besides the occasional passerby usage. I mean, if it was me I would be using the plants as spies or possibly even having a plant buddy. But does the MC do any of this? No. The MC literally never uses his powers except for a handful of times so far and it's to the extent of:

1. Watering flowers that beg for water. (once)

2. Placing flowers that beg for sunlight in a garden. (once)

3. Saving a plant from worms cause it was screaming. (once)

4. Telling peach trees to STFU. (once)

5. Telling some flowers they were lovely. (once)

6. A thirsty plant telling him where a secret hiding spot was. (once)

5 out of 6 of these things HAD ZERO IMPACT ON THE STORY. I'm just not sure what the point of this power is except for being used as some kind of deus ex machina at this point.

I will say I am currently 70+ chapters into a story with about 130 chapters so MAYBE the power will be more useful later in the chapters but at this point the author doesn't even MENTION the plants talking in the background even at this point and the power hasn't been impactful or useful in the story except ONE TIME (the secret hiding spot).
