There are too much B.U.L.L Crap in between, while reading I was screaming inside "GET TO THE POINT".
Clearly the author only thought about the word count rather than the story.
For the people who had annoying girlfriend in the past who talks constantly about the same damn thing for an hour then don't read this. It will bring out bad memories.
As for the story itself, MC is a transmigrator from earth who transmigrates into a dying magic world, just to be transmigrated again back in time before the collapse of the magic world. MC lands into a well off family but has to start from scratch after his father dies from an accident. MC uses the knowledge acquired from the dying magic world to become OP.
A character underestimates the mc, then there is a 2 to 3 chapter long inner monologue of all the characters in the scene and then a chapter or 2 of how mc knocks the sense into the arrogant person.
Literally every new character doesn't listen to what mc has to say and start scolding him or in some cases start a fight to show off their strength.
Very poor character design. Feels like the author didn't care about the novel at all.
And the novel doesn't have a proper ending (read readit).
If the translator doesn't want to continue, don't give hope. I hate it. 🤬
The author thus has a very thick face, makes many, many contradictory statements and events. MC winds up unrelatable and unrealistic considering his past.
Case in point, the back story of the MC does not line up with his actions, he should have barely read anything in that huge library because a) it was huge, B) he was fighting for his life and recources all the time, c) he was a young man. He had neither the time nor mental acuity to digest the library's contents. In the authors own words the MC was average.
Other than the bare necessity of Mana cultivation knowledge he should know nothing about alchemy, because a) in his original time there were next to no alchemy resources and thus no need to waste time on 'useless learning' , B) he would have little to no time to practice and experiment, which as even the author states, is absolutely necessary.
In short this story is pushed ahead by its release date and general lack of glaring spelling and Grammer errors, thanks to some decent editors. Unfortunately they as well fail in the prime editing directive, which is to do more than just correct spelling and Grammer. A piece of software can do that much, they fail to correct the terrible inconsistencies found in this novel. This novel is a symptom of the worst of webnovel's glamour.
And yet simply changing the MC from a 20 year old youth when he died to a 100-200 year old veteran wizard who had the time to absorb decent amounts of misc knowledge from the library turns the whole paradigm on its head. Will it require a lot of rewriting, yes. But it needs to happen nonetheless.
In short, if the author want his novel to be anything more than a trashy joke then they need to seriously consider the overall novel balance and scope, otherwise this novel will slowly throttle itself to death in a mire of tangled and increasingly convoluted and contrived plots.
