The plan was indeed to show a very immature and at times even just frustratingly stupid MC in the beginning and then show his growth and character developement, if that makes sense.

Hello Kera, I'm terribly sorry for the late response, in my defense I haven't logged in for months as I have been quite busy with other matters. I do understand that it is indeed too late to either accept or decline your kind offer, but I still felt like I should respond to your message as it would be quite rude of me not to. Again - My sincerest apologies for not responding earlier and I thank you for your kind offer yet again. Have a nice day, Kera! //"Xiao Huoyan"
