I Got Transferred in the Middle of a Mountain. In Retaliation, I Chose Amenity over Strength. Chapter -- Discussion

I really like this one but I also fully recognize it's nothing special. There's basically zero conflict, and it's just the main character wandering around exploring the fantasy world & also singlehandedly raising the standard of living of the entire continent kind of by accident. If you like stories about making food, and building cool houses, or finding secret libraries, etc, it's very nice, but you gotta know that it barely has plot progression and is basically always written in a comfortable atmosphere.

The plot TLDR is that MC ended up being summoned/transmigrated to another world, except seperately from the rest of the heroes (his sister and her friends), and also he hates his sister and wants nothing to do with her, so he specifically gets powers to be able to live alone on a mountain and never be discovered. He then spends the majority of the plot in town with friends and not at his super magical house. He also crafts pretty much everything: glassware, buildings, jewelry, weapons, cooking, clothing, you name it.

The worldbuilding of how magic and spirits work is nice and creative: spirits can form contracts with people and offer mana to them, but if people use a ton of the spirits mana the spirit can get injured or die. Spirits can also just decide to influence the world and add magic to things that wouldn't normally have it.

My only gripe is that our MC here supposedly is a "jack of all trades master of none, " but his power level starts rising to insane heights pretty quickly because he starts forming so many contracts with spirits (for good reason, sure, but it makes him weirdly OP, and the author clearly doesn't know what to do with that). The only real way the author dealt with it is by making MC a little bit of a dumbass, who is nervous to ask the spirits for help and finds monster hunting relatively uncomfortable, and while this makes sense for his character (he's in hiding from the other heroes on purpose, and just wants to have fun), he still falls into that "what do you mean this is super powerful? It's completely normal!!" aspect of obnoxious OP protag (for crafting), even though he's supposedly aware of what is abnormal or not. Oh well, it's mostly played for a couple jokes, or him making terrifyingly strong things on purpose to mess with people.
