I, the “Clock User”, Was Kicked Out of the Craftsmen’s Guild for Being Incompetent, but at the Dungeon’s Depths, I Awakened My True Power – Even Though I Was Told to Return Because They Couldn’t Handle the Work, It’s Too Late Now, and I Will Live Freely as an SSS-class Adventurer Chapter v53 Discussion

The first volume is written pretty generically. It’s not great. However, things do pick up after the first volume and the story does get a lot better.

One of the biggest issues I have is that the author redeemed the characters who caused the mc’s problems too early and too quickly. The author sometimes shows the POVs from other characters to redeem them in the eyes of the reader, but I feel that the story would flow much better if we are solely focused on the main character. For instance, instead of telling us how the misunderstanding with his sister happened the second after we read about it, it would be better to have the reader gradually find out about the facts along with the MC rather than straight up being told what actually happened.
