The Simple Life Of An Archmage

The pacing could need some work, and the genre should be magic realism (urban) 🤔putting the themes and realist settings. Otherwise, the novel is well written, it's just needs a little humor or dark element, to me🙃

With only about 100 chapters so far, Vampire Revenge: Blood, Sex & Violence has already set itself apart as one of the best webnovels I’ve read. The pacing is spot on—every chapter feels tightly written, with impactful scenes that never drag or lose focus. It’s impressive how much depth and tension the author has managed to build in such a short amount of time.Even at this early stage, the story feels deliberate and confident. Unlike a lot of webnovels that take forever to get going, this one hooks you right from the start and doesn’t let go.The writing is another highlight. The way the author uses language and storytelling makes it feel much more polished than your typical webnovel. It’s mature and grounded without ever feeling overdone.And speaking of mature, this is definitely a grown-up story. The blood, sex, and violence are handled in a way that adds grit and realism to the plot and characters. Nothing feels out of place or thrown in for shock value—it all serves the story and its morally complex characters.If you’re looking for your next obsession, this is definitely worth checking out!

Mr. Gatsby's dead."

I waved as they left the house. "See you in the morning."

"Huh?"

Li Qiye slowly responded: "I heard that the prime disciple position of the sect is still unoccupied. Since Old Devil fervently recommended me due to my talents, I have no choice but to ask for this position."

I sighed as we headed into the horizon.

So i finally finished reading all the chapters released so far (chapter 61), and i can with confidence that this novel is a hidden gem. The story is really original in a way that ignores the cliches we are so used to, and instead presents us with a concrete plot and rational MC.About the story: We have a soul tormented by its past decisions, and fuelled by a sense of purpose and revenge that is presented in a way that is natural and makes us understand why the MC does what he does. Make no mistake this is an evil MC. Although his actions are explained together with his troubled circunstances and we can sympathize and even understand his choices, he by no means has limits to achieving his goals and will crush anyone who stand in his way, enemy or not.The lore of the story is not tha unique in a sense that we have the common fantasy world and gods with a system. What is different however is that the system is not so clear to its inhabitants, whom only have a superficial understanding about it, and not the full detailed information. For example, you would know your class, level, and skills, but not your specific stats or how the skill calculates damage.Its relevant as well to say that the story picks up the pace as you read. At start, not all is explained, but as you go you will be told about the world, the gods, the MC himself and his past.About the Updates: The releases are somewhat too little and too sparse for now, but the author has promised too pick up the pace as more interest is shown on his novel.All in all this is a really good novel that can be amazing if done right. I would definetely recommend you give it a try because if you stick around you will definetely enjoy it.
