Looks considerably promising. Unfortunately, TL is paywalled beyond ch 75, and it's very difficult to find raws to MTL (I only found some forum with a TXT file that has two-thirds of the novel, but it's too sus for me to download when it's not even complete).To put it simply, this novel is a realistic isekai. You know how everything's served on a silver platter to an average isekai protagonist? All is smooth sailing, and it's easy to make money and develop influence by using modern knowledge. Well, this novel is giving its protagonist a big reality check at basically every step. By ch75, he has only managed to sell one product, with meager results.The MC does have some power, but it's very vague, and he doesn't understand it yet. The "protagonist strong from the start" is pretty much wrong. He's merely very tough, but the enemies MC encountered know how to deal with him when they can't wound him, and he was in trouble because they succeeded.The MC is okay and pretty realistic for his age of 19. He's not a great MC (ah, the minor simp tendencies), but again, he's realistic, so we can look forward to some character growth.Other characters are nothing great so far, but also not bad. Both enemies and allies include some interesting characters, and this novel isn't one of those sh*t novels where only female characters have significance.The setting is nothing groundbreaking, but it's not the most common one (as far as fantasy races are concerned, at least). The plot is okay so far (it's too early to say), but I must warn everyone that the start is VERY slow due to all the reality checks and resulting impediments that MC encounters. It's only around chapter 60-70 that he preliminarily overcomes tthe difficulties.Overall, a very promising novel that, at least so far, looks to be an isekai done right (and not the usual garbage slash fast food novel).
