This is a discussion so please bring your example if any.
Once again this is from my memory of a chinese work that I hated myself for reading way too long past my comfort as the MC just contorts into an arrogant cunt. The author tries to justify with hate sink villains but still, did a bad move (for me) to make their comeuppance tainted with MC's gloating.
For background, MC is a lowly ricefarmer in a cultivation sect. There is the monthly rice tax from the sect and there are also the protection fees in forms of rice from the first two bad guys MC had to deal with. First guy had a family of three wives and a smart child with the hope to be a better cultivator than the first guy. The second guy had a spouse.
MC one day got his golden finger and then created two types of debuff rice; retard rice and horny rice.
MC turned the first guy and his entire family into retards, which ended with the once-smart-now-dumb child's death by his now short-tempered father and the entire family in shambles. This was unpleasant to me as it reminded me of the extra "goodies" chinese products always have.
MC then turned the second guy into a cuckold by turning his virtuous spouse into a harlot who slept with the entire sect but the second guy. The kicker was that once the MC stopped giving his rice, the spouse broke the horny spell and was deeply remorseful even up until when the second guy burned her to death.
Oh, and MC gloated to the two men after he disarmed and tortured them physically near to their deaths on separate occasions. At this point the author still sells these guys as horrible people. But what he think might be justified looks to plainly disgusting to me, the actions of MC is disturbing and he is absolutely unremorsed about the collaterals.
So do you have any facepalm moments of MC that makes them into a scum?
