Review after 200+ chapters : Honestly, the MC is a know it all that actuallly knows nothing. Find myself questioning the logic behind his decision on a chapter by chapter basis (should not happen). It mostly has to do with the unneccesary lying that keeps putting him in disadvantaged situationsHowever, the author does a “great job” at covering for this by creating multiple plot armour devices. (This isnt a major spoiler so dont worry) He gave him a ‘bluff scroll’ that allows all his lies to be percieved as truths. Also, he has a time reversal ability so he can fix his mistakes. My main issue with the bluff scroll is already stated, but the reversal seems like a plot device to create suspense in the story. Thats not a bad idea if the situation reached an unsolvable level. The real problem is the author instead usIng it for simple mistakes he could have avoided easily. Just makes the MC out to be an idiot thats super forgetful and carelessAnother problem, depends on your opinion though; if your looking for this story to stay faithful to the stats, you will be dissapointed. Id say after 30 chapters, they are just tacked on metaphorically to show his growth. Even the level system is thrown up in the air and gives no solid referrence of how strong these characters really are. This problem also bleeds into the world building that isnt very detailed. Yes, we get a general understanding of the world, but the descriptions dont explain the authors imagination well. This has more to do with descriptions of places the MC visits. You get a simple “Ancient structure with high walls and western desig….(not an exact qoute). Hard for the reader to truly immerse himself in the plot.On to the writing quality. Its pretty good, but nothing to write home about. Very simplistic in nature and easy to understand. The action scenes are a little dull. The Author does make up for it with good character dialogue. There are also a few pronoun errors and mixups every one in awhile. Plus, the author uses the wrong character for certain dialogues. However, in the end, its simplicity is also a plus if your looking for a light readThe side characters on the other hand are the best part of this novel imo. Yes, they are a similiar to other very often used personalities, but they have their own unique charm. Find myself enjoying their interactions with the MC overall. Definitely breathes some life into the plot.Storyline is a solid “Shuras Wrath” plot but always a good one to read. Its entertaining but predictable. Author puts his own twist on some of the story arcs to seperate the story into its own indivual bookLastly, the MC is too dense. If your able to bring something out of the game, you should be able to tell its not a game anymore. There’s no excuse for that whatsoever.Overall, its a decent book to read inbetween other books your waiting on. ?
