The foolish main character combined with the trope-filled writing killed the story for me, and likely will for anyone more fond of calculative/antihero MCs.
The grammar and syntax are beyond bad. The author miss-uses tenses a lot. Infact he interchangeably uses them in every other sentence. Even the average 6th grader should have a better grasp on atleast the 4 simplest and when to use them:
Simple past/past progressive and simple present/present progressive.
To the author: I am not trying to disparage your work but you are honestly not that gifted when it comes to grammar, either study up or get an editor to do the work for you.
One last thing: even in the earlier chapter you are artificially inflating your wordcount. You are creating needlessly complicated sentences that no one understands and break syntax. Keep the sentences short, it will improve flow, you'll make less mistakes and the reader will in no way be confused.
The grammar’s a ****y bit weaker than some, but that hardly affects the experience.
You’ll find that the author, Suiyan, has a fetish for mass releases (don’t think of anything dirty).
The story progresses nicely on a slowly quickening rate. From the first few chapters to the latest, you’ll always find tidbits to enhance your knowledge on what the core plot is. Does he have to reach the peak of the world? Save his loved one? Save his race? Extend his life span enough to not die? The answer is: Yes.
Like I said, it’s a breath of fresh air, and the same goes for the characters. You don’t have that faultless main character that never does bad, or commits mass genocide and goes “I won’t let the world walk over me” or something of the like. Here, our MC, Krune is genuinely good, not from his character description, but rather his actions. While he comes of as a little wimpy, character development that sees him taking on new, and the cliched shameless trait exist. But, this only enhances the comedy, ‘cause the Novel is easily top three in comedy. The side characters, while kinda generic at the beginning, diversify in their characters later on. This, also, is a plus.
For world background, you have a literal multiverse and a higher realm, but the plot never feels like it’s larger than its current setting. To me, that would mean that if he’s in a village, you could get knowledge on the cities, but the readers don’t immediately focus on what happens after he leaves the village, but rather the village itself. I’m not entirely sure what constitutes an amazing background, but I think it’s good enough if it’s there and doesn’t overshadow the foreground before it’s the main focus. Nonetheless, the world is expansive with the author not only expanding on it based on size/location but also based on how the people’s views change in the different parts. Or at the very least confirming that it won’t just be a cliche “go to city, go to competition, go to school, offend big guy run away, find something useful, repeat steps one to five with a ‘capital state’ rather than ‘city’, goes back to city and floor the big guy before we forget about him.” Krune is not the type that lets conflict dictate his worldview.
All in all, it’s a great, kinda lighthearted read. I love it. Hope you try it if you’re reading this.
There are 5 year olds with more "EQ" than this guy, one second he is saying smart things, the next he's a m*r*n. It's bizarre, it's a shame as the rest of the novel is good besides the unlikeable MC. Even when he is 20+, is doesn't get better.
I think an even greater offender is how much effort the author puts in to try and blend plot armor in 'naturally'; he will provide robust explanations and cover every angle to make it reasonable as to why the MC is safe or will be safe if he does X, Y, Z but all it does is kill narrative tension and come across as too convenient; the universe perfectly aligns so the MC experience no setbacks.
He constantly shows off and garners attention while apparently wanting to keep a low profile but never suffers any losses which further exacerbates the lack of character development. So weird when I want something bad to happen to the MC so he can grow up.
I read up to chapter 300 in the lightnovelpub site and forgot this after my account was deleted.
So far so goodHEHE
