Great chapter! But why did Vel tell the full truth? Could he not have lied about the value of the gems, offered much less and still gained the same outcome?

Doesn't the whole paragraph imply his already dead?

Personally I see 0 reason for this Matheson hate as if he did anything wrong... Firstly if Jay did exactly what Math did the comment section would be praising him for his high iq sure a few would question his rash decision but for the greater good most would applaud his choice. Second, his 'character development' down the drain? either I'm not reading the same story as most the comment section, I'm confused or people just need something to hate, cause I see nothing wrong with his character development since his goal was too self improve and this treasure was a chance for him to do so, sure the I'm a noble line was questionable at best but his actions and his character make perfect sense as his self serving as he should in order to better improve himself. Third, he is a young noble 'young' being important. which in turn makes me defend his use of trying to take the treasure by force using his status, since that is what he has been doing and is just starting to change to be less reliant on his status doesn't mean he should not use it and disregard it to help him grow and improve himself. I would find it even weirder for him not to, again I see his growth, he used to be petty, worry about the commoners like Jay and enjoy bullying or outshining them but now not so much he focus on self growth but somehow people saying character growth down the drain? Again am I reading the same story as you all or maybe I'm reading a different one altogether. I would also like to know from people what he should have done instead? I might be wrong entirely but this was just my view point a well written chapter and a good character (Matheson) who's getting the weirdest of hate for making logical decisions in tune with his character. Apologies for the long rant but the comment section was getting annoying and I feel the author might be negatively influenced by readers to change Matheson quickly, as if he currently does not fit and play his role well. Character development should take time and the author is doing it at a great pace already. I will always say authors take readers comments and suggestions even my own with a pinch of salt and make sure they do not affect your planned story unless if you choose too personally then that is your choice. Again apologies for the long rant and lack of structure and punctuation making it possibly hard to read but I'm tired and annoyed.

Happens a lot more than you think, I personally think that writer's, especially newer ones are not sure In themselves and are easily swayed due to opinions, forgetting that readers are consumers whilst they are the suppliers. I'm not saying don't listen to criticism, just they need to be careful. In general more often than not readers don't know what they want, sure people have ideas and categories they like, but a whole fleshed out story... Most people would be lying if they said they did, giving too much choice is sometimes hindering I find. However if your end goal is to please the webnovel population then go for it, up to the writer.
But growing up with 'rich' parents who only cared about their prestige wasn't the best thing that could happen to little Noah. It all started when he was younger. His parents were wealthy, as wealthy if not wealthier than most in their circle of cliques. But one day that all changed when they lost a part of their wealth through their business. The loss wasn't enough to change their rich status but because the parents didn't want to change their lifestyle to allow themselves to lose face to the other wealthy families they continued to spend their wealth as if nothing changed.

Idk 11, it's a bit too much. He ain't even a transmigrator but physically and mentally 11. In fact how's he even surviving at ages 11-14 inside a dungeon, makes 0 logical sense really. Then I read your second point and make a decision to switch off my brain so I can maybe get through and enjoy the book.

Oh, crazy was pretty impressive storytelling sad to hear. Also enjoying the book, I will always say though as an author take readers opinions of the story direction with a pinch of salt as most of them wouldn't know the difference between a good and a bad one, instead just wanna self insert into yours, would write a whole rant but don't wanna bore you goodluck. P.S. this got a discord?

I mean when you put it like that makes perfect sense. You see my assumption was that Vel was not looking for long term (fair) trade deals with Norsmund but instead a crutch per say that would allow him to slowly make Normund reliant on Regalia in regards to agriculture, etc and maybe as time went by he would even possibly be able to get a foothold somehow. Ofcourse all of the above is very short sighted and I had not given much thought into how he would accomplish any of it. Anyways thanks for clearing it up and sorry for the ramble, if what I say does not make sense also like to apologise I usually comment after work, tired beyond belief. Great book so far (bit too great webnovel standards) keep up the goodwork.
