It's actually pretty well written, but I think people looking for a gender-bender gimmick are disappointed with what they find. For all intents and purposes, the protagonists gender change has almost no effect on the story telling whatsoever. It happened, and now the story doesn't care anymore. Even the protagonist just sees it as a convenient tool to hide their identity and just doesn't care anymore beyond that.The story did the same thing with the other gimmick. People may think this is another story using the gimmick where the most important member of a team leaves and the team that threw them out constantly get reminders about how important that person was. That does happen, but it's the mildest interpretation of that gimmick I've ever read by far. The protagonist is important and powerful, but there's maybe a scene reflecting the teams regret once every 20 chapters. And it's only to the point of "Damn, we used to be able to clear the monsters twice as fast before."The actual storytelling itself is pretty good, nothing amazing. If you ignore the failed gimmicks, it would be a weak 4/5 stars. I'm taking off points because it's really not crazy interesting or impressive. I'm not in love with it. It's a good time-waster.However, those gimmicks exist and I'm tempted to knock it lower than 3 as you can only read this novel on Tappytoon where you have to pay like a dollar or two per chapter and the chapters really aren't that long. Buying all the currently release chapters will probably cost you around 70 dollars.
