I Got Transferred in the Middle of a Mountain. In Retaliation, I Chose Amenity over Strength. Chapter 150 Discussion

It's an ok novel. It's the generic "I'm sorry, you weren't supposed to die, so here's 100 skills as an apology" isekai, but with extra steps. The world building is actually quite good, but the execution is lacking.

The first thing I noticed is that the writing feels very rambly. There's a lot of telling and unnecessary details instead of the MC actually doing something and finding out himself. Like there'll be 3 to 4 paragraphs telling us the characteristics, weaknesses, and habits of a monster. Then the next sentence will be "And I killed 3 of them."

Also we're supposed to dislike the MC's sister because she mistreated him and is misusing magic. But apart from one example at the very beginning, some people bad mouthing her later, and the black spirits. We have literally never seen anything from her perspective, so it feels like an imaginary bad guy that I can't even begin the care about.
