The thing about this novel is, It's too simple. It's so simpel that it's so predictable.Now, I'm not saying this novel is bad, but this novel uses the same principle and format over-over and again. It uses the "Chekov's Gun" principle, which is the basic of basic to write a story. (I'm sure there are other principle that is more specific to this case.) But seriously though... It's so simple that I don't know if it's bad or good. The other hundreds of novel that I have read, struggle for this kind of thing. But, this novel is playing it too safe. It's sticking it to the rule too much.I just know, if the MC found an item, then; either the next chapter or the same chapter, it will appear a situation to use that item that MC just found."Well aren't you glad that you found an item which has a very specific use for a specific situation, right before that specific situation occurs?"It's not a bad concept. But, if the author keep using the same format over-over again, then it will make the story predictable.Every chapter will always be filled, "Oh, thank God the MC found this item a while ago, to use that item for specifically this kind of 'specific' situation." feeling. For us, the readers, this same feeling will always appear in every chapter. (It's Deus Ex Machina!) But... At the same time, this novel only just had a few chapters translated. It has potential to grow. So, I will keep reading it for now.
