Yet another one of the many reasons why I love this genre of loser adults being OP with great storyline and solid set of characters. It reminds me so much of the leveling system sub-genre and I love how the story is moving so far. Can't wait to witness how the season unfolds (and hopefully hold a licensed physical copy on hand when it happens!)
strong potential. as with most kdrama fantasy manhwa there are guilds and interguild politics, with roided out bullies and seniority power play. the premise of the MC stealing abilities from demons (rakasha) might seem OP but his strong childhood trauma and desire to be praised add weakness. the author's also included several B-plots and overarching mysteries already, which might be rewarding as the series matures.
does this story include romance?
Up to date w current chapters, and it’s great so far! MC/work hierarchy reminds me of chainsaw man lolol
Besides tho the power system is really intriguing with the dust! And the artist does an amazing job with uncanny horror <3
This is 100% personal preference and not a critique of the story, but I wish the FL wasn’t introduced so soon. Imo she’s spottable from a mile away
Just in general I’d love to see more stories that weren’t so romance oriented and put way more attention and focus on the story- either having the romance as a side story or barely touching on it at all. It’s just more salt on the wound when in most comics/novels like this you can tell as soon as the first chapter who the MC will end up when with;;;;; I understand romance adds realism & depth but like…. cmon -_-
Wowwww the art looks fire wtf?? Both ML and FL are baddies btw they fine ash
