Douglas is why heroes get killed

The "kill the hero after killing the demon king" reincarnation / regression trope is painted as evil but with Douglas I get it. He's the kind of person who would in the middle of battle turn his blade on you for trying to actually kill the demon king instead of subdue and talk to him.

He himself has extraordinary power, which allows him to extend personal mercy more than others. Which is fine. But then he forces that on others who are NOT as powerful as him and he cannot always protect given he is not actually immortal and omnipotent.

Our dear MC is not a compassionate and selfless hero, he is a moral coward and squeamish emotional narcissist.

Fortunately the dad / daughter vibes were nice enough to keep reading but man does he make me mad.
