It's a trap.

At first it looks normal, even somewhat interesting if you're a fan of similar settings with OP protagonist, but a bit later you will realise how absurd and ridiculous this novel truly is.

To put it simply, plot contains planet-sized plot holes that are impossible to ignore even if you want to.

I'll describe some basic setting of this 'masterpiece' of a novel here without really spoilering anything to show how it looks.

  • Lets assume that the story starts at year X.
  • 50 years ago humanity waged war against demons, won and exiled them.
  • Like a true defeated 3rd rate villains demons promised that they will return before they ran away!
  • 30 years later is the moment MC's first life ended, demons returned and started their undercover shenanigans at about this time.
  • 20 years later since the moment of his death (and 50 years from year X) MC started his second life.
So far, so good.

You would expect that since not much time has past, humanity is ready to face demons again, right?

Especially since some people who faced the era of war are still alive and well, right, RIGHT?

Well yes, but actually no!

Here comes the kek!

  • In 50 years since the end of war, knowing that demons and monsters will return, humanity lost all knowledge related to them!
  • There are no books about them, victors didn't teach their successor anything either!
  • Now humans can't even identify a shitty goblin. No need to talk about demons like doppelganger.
  • Goblins are scary AF. People trembling!
Do you want to know author's excuse for this setting? Even if you don't, I will tell you!

The knowledge wasn't passed down cause monster can prepare countermeasures!

SUCH A BIG BRAIN THEORY!

In all honesty, I'm shocked too!

Yes! No need to even describe basic characteristics of demons and monster in the book, monsters will prepare for it! Before the demonic invasion, fcking goblins and orcs will definitely infiltrate human libraries and learn it all!

And then they will know that you know them! What a tragedy!

After this, in order to fool foolish humans, goblins will disguise themselves as cute elven maids and conquer the humans from within! Probably.

Take note that this is the most basic and crucial setting of this novel. I'm talking about the loss of knowledge, not goblins disguised as elven maids.

There are much more plot holes in this novel, some of them are just as ridiculous. Even if you turn off your brain it's still not possible to ignore something so illogical.
