This was originally a novel with a. Very interesting concept, but it got completely ruined by its lazy writing.The power balance is completely f*cked. The author never took his time to fix the various power balance problems that has been appearing in this novel. An F rank can beat a B rank. People who isn't even the MC can rise from F rank to C rank in months. And some of the skills of the MC are not even explained properly on its power.Then there's the insane amount of plot holes. It's impossible to list them out one by one. Every time a new arc appears, a new plot hole appears together with it. And the author never bothered to fix it in the later chapters.But those are not even the real problems, even with that, the novel can still be entertaining with cool powers, fighting style, and a good concept. And those elements did exist at first, but all of it is ruined after the Murim arc. The MC's unique fighting style using every tool at his disposal got replaced with a generic sword and magic. His genius ideas of setting up traps and plans for his enemies got replaced with generic beat downs. And The MC's personality became more and more generic. Everything turned generic, and the unique points of this novel got completely buried. And, one of the best part of this novel is the MC traveling dimensions to hunt protagonists. But after the Murim arc, the frequency of the travels got halved, and most of the plot started happening in your generic hunter and gates settings, which makes things less and less interesting.And this is a novel that contains harem. Harem isn't really a problem for me, but the real problem is that most of the harems are bad, and, unfortunately, this novel's harem also belongs to the "bad" category. Half of the harem members have silver hair, and everyone except Taylor has a personality that you've seen in other novels.The novel also ignores a lot of stuffs that should be discussed in more detail, but the author decides to not talk about them.In conclusion, this novel is bad, but at least it's entertaining. Well, before the Murim arc at least, after that, it became completely tr*sh. So I suggest you to stop reading before that arc if you're going to read it.
