It started out with a bit of cliche, but this novel soon took a better more unique turn, haha, author-saman I've already found out that plot twist of yours but I won't dare share it with anyone, you did a really got job at masking it in chapter two haha. I even saw that someone else in the comments had found out.
Anyways, back the review, in this story, characters ask questions, they won't go around killing you for just some random reason, every character have a story even the bad ones, the world feels rich enough due to authors writing style and descriptions, and there aren't any useless paragraphs, even when the peanut gallery is speaking their talking about useful content with the exception of those that have only one or two lines meant to add flavor.
The supporting characters are as they called, supporting, they aren't useless and weak, even a so-called certain fatty, has his place, his own purpose and motivations, and skills. A fighting fatty :)
As for the MC, I like his abilities, I won't go spoiling them here, it's pretty nice to see this kind of ability for a change. Still, while their are good points, there are still some downsides which I think can be improved over time, other than that, author-sama, well done.
You should trust the author's review. Even though the novel has a slow pace, but the quality of the story, character, and the plot will never make you disappoint. If you search for the second chance novel with clever MC, you will fall in love with this novel.
This author really need to be blamed for addicting others with his novel.
A very good ascender/tower crawl genre, very much like Reincarnator and others like it. I like this genre a lot and this new entry is pretty good. The story is solid and keeps you guessing so far. Not much to say since it's fairly new and it only updates 1 chapter a day I think, and so far the story is progressing nicely. Verdict: Read When You Can.
I liked how the story is developing by slowly builfing up suspense for the reader and character development for the future.
I dont want to spoil so i wont but i suggest reading the auther does a few chapters a day amd it is good
Ok writing quality is very good. There's few mistakes throughout the novel and the diversity of words is better than most of the novels in this platform
Story development is good at most due to the unique setting. The system is bothersome like many other system novels. Stats and skills generally take up numerous pages. There's a tad of mystery in this novel but rather than being in suspense, eagerly looking forward to the next reveal, I feel myself slogging through some chapters and being slightly frustrated at the pace. I can see the hints and foreshowing and can feel the story building up continuously... and then it became premium so I can't enjoy the greater parts of the novel. My rating is based solely on the beginning on the novel before premium so don't be discouraged from continuing on if you can afford the coins.
Character development is probably the worse part of this novel's start. Some interactions feel like a cheap xianxia, some characters feel unrealistic as they literally don't have a moral compass/ they have an ego as large as the world itself... At the very beginning, I thought that the novel would follow in the footsteps of xianxia novels with the way that they portray their MC and side characters: dumb and dumber. But it was salvaged as the MC feels smarter afterwards. But that's not how the MC should have acted according to his experience. The main character doesn't display the mentality of a person that has been through lots of fights and death itself, just like many other novels of the same genre. He is naive and doesn't think about the effect his actions could have at times, but is evidently better in the sense that he doesn't pick fights outright. And he has a needlessly loud mouth. Isn't he afraid of attracting attention or revealing sensitive information ?
World background is interesting . A mix and match of common themes giving a beautiful balance. Sci-fi + apocalypse + game elements fits nicely.
I started this novel because of its high ratings but it should be rated 4.2 at best. I'm an avid reader of mystery, fantasy and action novels (mostly Western books) so I can say that... The story doesn't flow that well, at least for an experienced reader. But for a first timer, it's a nice read, especially the writing quality and setting and the improvements. I'm giving a 3 since the novel went premium before I could really enjoy it.
