One bit of context that i dont remember if it was mentioned in the manwha but was very heavily emphasized in the novel.
The reason MC never takes anything for free from anyone is because, he needs to become a symbol for the rest of humanity to follow proper rules for trading between fellow humans, its actually a super important part of the plan for humanity and gets a lot of mention in the novel. So the MC becoming the main example of not stealing and always doing fair trade needs to always be upheld.
