Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner Chapter 30 Discussion

Average 'battle academy' novel with quite a few demerits.

Nothing particularly noteworthy, but still readable.

The main problems are its ridiculous starting setting and the fact that there is no promising future in sight, or even anything worth anticipating in this novel.

Basic setting:

Absolute hillbilly MC with zero knowledge about magic was accepted into the best mage academy in the world through backdoor with the identity of #1 admission student (i.e the best/most promising student of the batch).

Just this cliche setting will help you understand the plot of the first half of this novel.

What makes no sense is that MC isn't an orphan, moreover his parents are some big shots, but for no real reason they didn't teach him anything at all.

Probably so that we will be able to 'enjoy' reading about hillbilly mc's misadventures at the start of the academy life full of knowledgeable magic geniuses.

It's totally impossible to skip all this weak-to-strong bottom tier - top tier student journey nonsense after all.

Also, his totally useless identity as the #1 admission student that gives zero benefits, but ample opportunities to be humiliated and provoked by some tr*shy villains, only to rise higher and slap faces is only here as an excuse for author to introduce standard commonplace troupes into the story. And it's annoying.

The questions like 'why the fck his ret*rded parents didn't teach him anything basic even though they knew that he will go into this academy in the future' or 'what's the point of making him the center of everyone's attention with this useless identity even was?' kept bugging me while I was reading all the cliche scenes that I've seen countless times before.

In the end I will also repeat again that this novel contains no mysteries or any unusual developments (at least I haven't seen any in the first 30 chapters), so it's hard to say that it will be better in the future.

If author don't introduce anything too atrocious in the future then its quality will likely steadily remain the same as standard cliche read.
