Read up to chapter 48 so far (free chapters). Similar starting problems that I had with Stealing Spree. I just really dislike the MC and the whole "salesman" past of his sounds soooo sketchy and like absolute human scum (like "talking old grandmas into spending their last savings into a miracle cure" type of person)... Another problem I personally had was the pace of the relationship development. I'll try to avoid spoilers, but it went from 5% in the past year to 100% in 2 days. Combined with his new found ability to actually (maybe) manipulate people or at least emotions to his will, it's quite questionable how much of it is the poor girl's free will or something else. But as I mentioned before: I had the same problems with the other novel (Stealing Spree) and really really hated the MC and relationship development at the start. I only kept reading because I liked the modern world setting and had a friend who promised me that it (the relationships) would get better later on. By now, I really love the story and read every single chapter. But even so, I don't know if I have the strength again to fight through such a start once more. Especially if I don't know what will change and the constant fear of how much "fake" feelings are in there with the kind of ability the mc possesses.
