This novel is extremely over-rated, almost at the point where I'm suspicious that the review score has been messed with. I refuse to believe that this mediocre, non-descript, generic, word-count-centric novel has so many good reviews. Let's start with the biggest flaw. The author is honestly not as clever as he thinks he is. And because of that, a million issues crop up: huge plot holes because of glaring omission. The MC is presented as someone who lived for a long time in a somewhat enlightened kingdom, but he behaves like a teenager on drugs. Intrigue, betrayal, and politic arcs feel like children's colouring books, with cartoon villains and a painfully oblivious MC. The more you read, the more flabbergasted you become. As is the norm with these types of novels, there is a lot of face slapping. And this is one of the points that the translators emphasized. We will have real villains, with real motivations. That was a lie. It's all about immediate gratification. Random thug like characters whose sole purpose is to be humiliated by the MC. And they keep coming and coming. All MC actions are done with a large audience, where everyone is present to witness his greatness. Nobody has anything else to do other than talk about the MC, be amazed by how heaven defying he is, then immediately proceed to forget about it, and randomly pick a fight with him. It's typical for Easter fantasy novels, but for the score and praise of this novel, this is very disappointing.Another big issue is the writing style of the author. The main characteristic, and the purpose of every chapter is word count. Endless repetition, multiple paragraphs stating the same thing over and over, with no addition to the story. Random dialogue and exchanges between minor characters, of no real value. One single fight, in a very early arc, took over 15 chapters, for a single punch exchange. You could honestly reduce it to a paragraph.The novel doesn't have a single original bone in its body. The title contains doctor, and the MC is lauded as a heaven defying alchemists. But when it comes to fighting, as usual, it's all about who can punch harder. No poison, no alchemy fire shenanigans, no special cauldron. Just uga buga me strong me hit. There's not a lot to like about this novel. I have committed to reading up to chapter 100, to give the novel a fair shot, but in all honesty, this feels like a chore, not like something enjoyable. I would stay away from this. There is better stuff out there
Why is this story so underated? It's the best novel you can find here on this website. Just give it a try and you won't be disappointed!Read it.....Read it.....Read it.....
If your up to OP MC than you must read this !!!You will understand the different between shameless and confidence. Plus the author will inform reader before MIA 😎😎😎
So far, this book is remarkably well composed. I love the story plot and how the characters are being described to the fullest. I'm really enjoying the story and will definitely be reading more of it. Great job author.
