If you like a realistic world, realistic characters with realistic situations and fair powers this is NOT a story for you. I reached my limit of unrealistic **** after I got to the explination of the power system which is convoluted to say the least and our MC got such a unfair power I couldn't continue reading (see below).
Explination of the power system:
1. Everyone has 360 columns.
2. Normal people has 200 grey columns at birth, leaving 164 white ones.
3. Every year one of the columns drains and becomes a grey one.
4. To unlock a grey column you need to put in 10 life crystals which apperantly is a rare drop and very expensive.
5. To get to the next power rank you need to unlock all your grey columns.
6. You can only unlock a grey column ONCE so if you don't fill all of your grey within a year you can never reach the next rank.
This is the stupidest power system I've ever seen. First of all if its THAT hard to rank up goverments would restrict it to their top agents. Even if they didn't it would be impossible for a normal person to rank up, since they need to fill their wheel all in one go. This would mean that our MC would NEVER. EVER! have chosen this as a proffession since in this line of work, he needs to be strong first to get money so he can take care of his sister. To become strong he needs money to buy life crystals to power up, causing this to be a catch 22.
Lets do some quick math. Our MC had 152 non grey colums at birth (apperantly he had a lower number then average). After 15 years this becomes 152-15=137. 364-137=227 grey colums to fill. Each grey one requires 10 life crystals (rare drop remember) causing him having to gather 2270 life crystals to break through to the next rank with 10 more for each year it takes. Now since this (apperantly) is a rare drop, costing the same ammount as a good weapon, lets say 10% of the monsters drop this. That means our MC needs to kill 22 700 monsters to rank up. And this is from the LOWEST RANK to the next one. That means that for hunanity to get an iron rank they need to kill on a average 25 000 monsters for Each. Damn. One.... THEY WOULD BE NATIONAL GOD DAMN TREASURES!!!
*WARNING - Spoilers Bellow!*
Around chapter 15 our MC is participating in an exam which would make their strength official and they would get a larger paycheck from the goverment. Somehow the goverment is fine with letting their examinees die in droves, the same guys we just figured out should've been national treasures. This is so stupid I actually had to stop reading for a while.
When I finally gathered enough strength to continue this happens. Our MC' ONLY weakness so far was that his life force drained at an insane rate. Now this was a good weakness because it prevented him from taking it easy and created some urgency in this story.
The author decides to throw this out the window by giving our MC the ability to absorb the life force of creatures he kills, ****** that rare drop we discussed before completly useless. He can litterally fill up all his columns with 10-15 monsters instead of the 25 000 everyone else has to kill. This ability is something everyone in this world chooses for themselves and our MC got the ability for graduating top of the class.
If this ability (called goldfinger) was truly so powerful why doesn't EVERYONE and their grandmother have it? If they only have one or can only grant it to one why would the goverment give the most powerful tool at their disposal to a random poor guy just because he graduated top of his class? If the goverment has no clue about the capabilities of the abilities they grant why would they give this specific one to the top student? Why not just have a huge spinning wheel and let chance decide?
ANYWAYS; The results of this is that our MC has zero weaknesses, is a genius who can learn things other poeple does in 103 days working 18 hours a day by half-assing it in 3 days. (Yes. He leared a swordstyle that took a talented person 1854 hours to learn in about 9-10 hours by WATCHING HIM. Sounds fair and realistic right?...)
This will become yet another Gary Stue running around screaming "look at my amazing system" story... I'm litterally expecting a harem member to show up in 5 chapters and his little sister getting the hots for him which will somehow be acceptable in this new world which the author still hasn't defined if it's a new world, some form of time travel or some other dimension.
My recommendation? DO NOT READ.
I see many people votes of their power stone On this novel every week, So
I read it (113 chapter). Each time I tell myself the story is going to get better But in end Just a waste of time. (No offense)

Review:-
It was a beautiful journey, there were many beautiful memories, there was a sense of thrill and mysteriousness at the beginning.
But God lord everything is so repetitive ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ, after one point of the story it just felt like this novel was trying to eat away at my soul.
If you are expecting a exciting plot, something that will make your blood pump with adrenaline then you are at the wrong place( such a wrong place), the author is just crunching numbers here billion, trillion, quintillion, quattuordecillions, duovigintillions, tresvigintillions +++,
It was good at the beginning (only at the beginning, the above first paragraph is for this beginning) but after the MC leaves his world the story starts to take dive
The novel is called The Demonic King Chases His Wife. (or something like that it's a long title)
