Summary
Bandit has an abnormally high encounter rate with Naofumi. In addition, he who was under Ren when he was devoured by his curse.

Bandit was sentenced by the country to forced farm labor after having his level reset. He had no means of fighting. He was in the middle of hard labor in order to make up for his crimes.

Bandit intended on making up for his sins, and returning to his village to live a decent lifestyle.

Naofumi got special permission from the country to take him out of the state prison, after which Bandit's had his slave rights turned over to him, and he had a contract written up. Naofumi took Bandit as a disciple.

Naofumi would specially grant him a class up, and cover raising his level. In addition, Naofumi would give financial aid to Bandit's family. Under the pretense that Bandit was hired by the country, making his folks proud.

Bandit was to target bad merchants who don’t sign in with the Merchant’s Guild, breaking the rules and regulation, sold in other’s territories, and who were backed by the moderate faction of the anti-shield coalition; who were building up wealth and power to get rid of Naofumi. Naofumi would report the routes and schedules for his merchants and peddlers. Bandit would be choosing evil merchants, and taking their cargo.

The Heroes would also go around under the pretense of getting rid of bandits. As a boss with good intuition, he’d manage the operation. If he found a troublesome subordinate or someone getting in his way, the people from Rock Valley would take care of him.

Half of the pilfered goods were used to pay his subordinates, and the other half distributed to unfortunate towns and villages.
