What Happens When the Second Male Lead Powers Up Chapter 31 Discussion

If you are like me and reading TCF (or S Classes/ORV) wishing there was more cute family bonding, this story is for you.

MC has a high EQ, lots of compassion, and strong morals that he puts to use as a [job you can guess by the cover photo]. He reminds me of Cale with his desperate desire to ignore all dangers/annoyances. Unlike Cale, he's already achieved his slacker life, but the protagonists/plot keep trying to drag him in.
