I mean it sure wasnt the smartest way of handling things. But imo only leaving Amelia alone in the city and not telling anyone about his relationship to taron were super dumb. And the first one i can excuse with the MC feeling to secure and maybe arrogant after Taron didnt moved for quite some time.
I think letting himself being captured at this point is okay. He knows he can break out at any time if he desires so and trusts his friends/guild to rescue amelia to get out of this without having to slaughter the whole palace and making his own life (and that of his friends) unnecessarily complicated due to it.
And he's just a few hours behind bars until now, i doubt he will stay there even a day.
I think its similar to the point above, he doesnt (thats dumb and arrogant) consider Taron this much of a threat that this would be necessary (and it would be hard to explain to the royals). He's (too) sure hes able to kill him soon without everything around it getting messy. He's probably right about that tho and i think even Taron knows that.
He could have just lasered talon too or simply broke the prison bars open lol
Uhhhhh, i disagree completly. The mc's whole purpose is to be the leader of mankind (for good or worse), being king is just a small steps towards that.
As i understand the story everything leads towards mc vs. the other nephilim and both with their support and armys.
He will surely never sit in the palace all day long, but i suspect he will be king.
Or like Amelia will just be the ruling Queen and he king consort so he barely has to deal with any formalities.
