One of my favorite novels on the site. Harem isn't half-heartedly cobbled together and rushed, each love interest is actually their own character with interesting personalities. MC's personality is hilarious and never frustrates me, and absolutely does not act like your typical beta MC, without becoming a psychotic CN-like mass mu*derer. He is OP, but he's still growing so the tension still remains Spoiler
especially in the dragon fight, that was one of the first novel battles that genuinely hyped me up like a manga or anime usually does.
[collapse] Story has remained consistently fresh and amazing so far, and even though it is slice of life, it's one of the first to genuinely keep me entertained even through the slice of life bits, which there is a good amount of, but imo it does a good job of balancing slice of life and chill arcs with action and adventure arcs. Would 100% recommend this novel to anyonePS: The translation is one of the best things about the story, the dialogue feels natural and hilarious, and even though it is "americanized", it doesn't make me cringe at all and actually enhanced the humor and even the action/serious moments for me (ik some people didn't like it, but from reading other reviews, the general consensus was the translation was fantastic, so I'd recommend trying it out for yourself). The updates are consistent as well, really makes me wish CardboardTL did more novels instead of those people that just do half-assed MTL and call it proper "translation".PS#2: There is also a well done manga if you want a good intro into the story. It doesn't skip much, so you could also just read right where you left off if you finish it.
