Really hoping that the mom has a VERY good reason as to why she abandoned the mc. Imagine hearing all the good stuff that your mom did from other people and yet she couldn't even take care of you. Idk man this just piss me off especially since she earns good money yet she doesn't even support her son? Idk if im wrong but like—he's literally struggling to survive day by day.

I agree that she’s wrong for abandoning him, which i think they’ll make up some excuse for it later that ends up as she did it to protect him. However, does she really earn good money?Legally, the mc is the next of kin and the only thing he has to inherit is the building, which he can’t even have till he defeats the arena. There’s no mention of any money nor other properties in the mother’s name. The school’s account can barely cover the upkeep of the world tree and the school. The majority of the expensive tuition goes to the upkeep of the world tree. It was also explained that the expensive items on display aren’t just luxury, they’re there to protect the school and the children. If u look closely, the mother does not have anything to herself, even the school doesn’t seem to be really “hers” in a monetary sense. So does she really earn good money?

In addition, the Mc only earns good money because of the system rewards from the arena but the mother does not have the same oppression because it only opens like once in a hundred years or so. While she may be out there defeating yokais and getting magic stones, it can barely cover for the upkeep of everything (world tree, school maintenance, protective items, food, etc.) I’m guessing there’s gonna be a reveal that she knew her son is gonna be chosen by the arena and she set this all up, so the mc can have a better chance at survival.

I've been re-reading this for so many years and I just cant get enough of it. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I AM BEGGING give something that is similar to this (or Hosik's Story) where at some point something bad happens to the MC?? I just NEED these types of drama! It can be a novel, anything just give me something like this. My entire being is literally CRAVING for these stories and I just need to read more (If you get it, pls give me something EXACTLY like THISSSS, should be historical setting toooooooo)
I read this around 2020 and i cant believe i actually finished it lol
