beginning and end 1

We quickly left the armory to a few allied soldiers and headed towards Andrei's location.

I could use a little fuel myself

Maila was shaken awake and her eyes flickered open as a voice became clearer. Her head was buzzing slightly and the darkness of the chamber was unbearable. There was no candlelight, no enchantment to dazzle to room beautifully, no comforting light to warm the situation with its soft flicker and glow. Unable to adjust to the darkness, Maila grabbed a hold of the person shaking her lightly.

Yes, that was the last sentence that I heard.

Even though I've only read a few chapters, I can't wait for more. I thought I should wait a while before leaving a review, but nah, I can't help it. Good job to the author! Cliche trope but the writing keeps the plot interesting. Waiting to see how everything would unfold!

Rey Castle is really an egoist, The fact that the shadow authority is this vast, I want to see how strong he will become

This is a good novel, a hidden gem. The MC is cautious and actually thinks about the steps he makes. He isn't an arrogant fool, who will do irrational things based on his emotions. Instead he bides his time, and always ensure he makes the winning move.His system isn't too OP either. It's exactly as it presents itself, no extra sign-in nonsense, no lottery, no hidden reward. All it does is optimize techniques. Which is a decent cheat.The writing is a step above your normal original fic, and the MC seems to be a ruthless character willing to do anything for power with no remorse or scruples. One thing I would like to see more of in the novel  however, is more interaction between the mc and the world/characters. For the most part mc is a hermit (which isn't bad).

The novel was quite good with great potential. But the author really just had to make someone eat shit.  I was eating some snacks while casually reading and just... only read it if you like seeing people eat shit.
