A story with interesting world building and side characters, completely ruined by the protagonist, who is a complete cretin constantly kept alive only by his massive plot armor.
This is one of those DEKU mc manhwas :D annoyingly happy over everything and cries every other chapter for some stuped reason..mostly coz hes being to naive lol... but if you grind ur hardest and push through the first 20ch..its hard tho...it gets a bit better after :D
I have nothing useful or constructive, and don't want to spoil anything except to make this note for myself:
Wow, uncle. Wow. Why are you so weirdly sexy? Why?
EDIT: Oh. Wow. Mommy's even hotter.
I completely agree with MatrixM's review of this. BUT only up about where they read. See, one we do get out of the tutorial area, it very, very, much feels like it's devolving into Shounen, with many of the same flaws most shounen works have.
The actions of certain characters stop matching up because the author needs them to act in a certain way to push the desired message/have the character have a very cliche shounen character development.
It's sad to see, because this had such good promise. At this point(ch 41), its pretty much just aggressively average shounen.

So first of all, the chapters are longer than I'd expect with a webtoon. I remember I was 9 hcapters in and it felt like 20 for a typical webtoon chapter length
This series is quite good so far. Yeah it's got a couple of the cliches you'd expect of the genre. But it still does it well overall.
Some of the characters so far are the highlight. The mc, his mother and his uncle so far are the more notable ones (the brother feels like there's a lot of story to him we're missing cos he suddenly transitions into a major hardass after the early timeskip).
I especially like how we've got a very sympathetic/empathetic villain. I'm really looking forward to where his story goes.
The story has some battles at the start that were unexpectedly really high-stakes, showing the potential of high-power-level characters early, but still done in a way that it didn't feel like there were ass-pulls to keep things going.
The world-building is interesting (which is a MUST in a story like this) with the theological (cosmological?) conflict being the main drop. It very much reminds me of the story of There is no Epic Loot here, Only Puns.
Now that we're out of the prologue (though so much happened I hesitate to call it that) we seem to finally be introducing the second of the main cast/party and he's pretty decent so far, too.
Idk if I'll follow it week-to-week. With webtoons I usually prefer waiting for a backlog. But these chpaters are long enough I may not do that this time, idk.
Right now I'm putting it at a very solid 8. Meaning 'very good'. But seeing as it's still early story I wouldn't be surprised if that rises in future.
