Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi (Novel): [My Comments/Reviews/Spoilers]

Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi (Novel): [My Comments/Reviews/Spoilers]

Link:
Status (of the novel): Ongoing
My Reading: Reading & On Hold
My Comments/Reviews/Spoilers are Based on: Web Novel up to: Web Ch 1-20 (Translated), Web Novel RAW Up to: Web Ch 341 (Google Translated) 

Atmosphere: Light
Type (Transported to Another World): Summoning (Group)
*Purpose for Summoning (if any): Hero
*Summoner (If known): Magic User
*Initial Abilities Gain when Transported (If any): Magic (unique) - noncombat related
  • MC's magic (unique) explain: Uses other world money to purchase item like an online store from Earth and have it delivered when purchased within second.
Other World Setting (World/Backdrop Setting): A Fantasy Magic & Sword World with Game Element (RPG), Medieval. There are monster and other race.

Main Character: A 27 year old male, Japanese Nationality, salary man 
*MC role in this summoning: None, A Bystander, Was caught in the summoning by mistake
MC Personality/Character: A standard Japanese Character
MC Ideas, Creations, and/or Recreation from his previous life (Either make it himself or have someone else make it for him): The MC unique magic can do that for him already so he don't need to make it when he can actually bring the real thing (mostly food).

MC's Contracted Beast/Monster:
Fenrir (legendary): Last of it kind, it is over 1000 year old, somewhere in history one of it own kind is able to destroy a country by itself giving it the legendary status, able to speak and understand human language. Self stated that only an Ancient Dragon is his equal (in combat). Contracted MC for his food. Male.
Slime (special): Was a normal baby slime when they first met, friendly and harmless, was helpful in eating the other world trash for MC (clean up). Contracted MC for his food. Gender-less.
Pixie Dragon (Rare): Look like a baby size dragon but it actually an adult dragon, known for it small size and quickness (flying), rare to be found anywhere, it is over 100 year old. Contracted MC for his food. Male.

My Comments/Reviews/Spoilers: The MC got caught up in a hero summoning and because he not a hero and he don't trust the king, he left the country as quickly as possible. During the journey to cross the border, he encounter a Fenrir who got attract to his food. After eating it, the Fenrir ask to sign a contract. After they arrive and enter another country, the MC plan to move to another country after some research. And Though the main story involving MC's Contract Monster doing the killing and hunting (mainly for the meat ---> food) while he sell the other part. He will then cook the meat for them because they big eater. Our MC will become wealthy real quickly as the byproduct of selling monster part to the guild. His unique magic also attract the goddess and god of this world. Any who, Our MC have very good luck on everything expect on the love department according to a side note story from the goddess in this other world. As the reader I must agree with that as the MC have very good luck and here are some reason why: 
  1. Contract beast is overpowered, not even a country can stop it if anger
  2. Met lot of nice/kind/odd/strange people but none them are actually "bad guy" (one reason is probably because of his contracted beast)
  3. Make fair deal when selling monster part and drop to the adventure guild (nice people), be sure not be cheated when selling to the merchant guild with nice people watching behind. Our MC don't know the market price and he don't seem to care. (I think he going numb with all the gold he gain from selling monster that he like this)
  4. Our MC have yet to face or meet any "bad guy" (people) that will harm him (as of RAW Chapter 341)
Our MC is average while his contracted beasts is overpowered; the majority of the novel will have chapter with them just cooking and/or eating. 

Here what happen so far: 
  • got summon. left castle. get escorted to another country. met fenrir along the way. 
  • Cross over the country and plan the next move. research and then head out to another country in the west. head out and enter it.
  • travel in between town/village/city with that country, conquer a few dungeon and meet new people.
Hero POV story chapters (1 male teenager, 2 female teenager):
  • Discover they are being use and about to be enslave, escape during a monster hunt.
  • While escaping, one of them (female) have to cut off one of her arm due to having a slave item put on her. The hero group escape to another country while acting as an adventurer.
  • It was later noted that they marry each other. (explain to MC by god while having a friendly chat with MC)

I see this novel as causal read.
