I love this novel. Let's talk about it.

Main Character

Alright, our main character Kyle/Leo is quite enjoyable to read. He's not an a**hole, he acts rationally, he's not the type that gets blushed easily, and most importantly he's not a pe*vert. He's a grown man both in mind and behaviour. He's very wise, capable of deciding what's right and wrong. Quite charismatic should I say. As far as I read, I can't find any fault in him, other than that he's actually too perfect to be true. (Okay maybe his cold and harsh personality can be a flaw but I don't find it to be a problem). I'm waiting for him to show a flaw, like c'mon.

In the entire series, Kyle/Leo acts as a kind of guide for the young hero to become stronger. He views all his classmates, senior, and junior in the academy as young fledglings that need to be prepared for the last final battle. You might feel him a little bit distant with all the side characters, which makes sense since he's older than all his peers in terms of mental age. Still, there are fun and cute moments to enjoy with all the side characters which I mainly view as "grandfather playing with his grandkids moments'' lol.

Side Characters

I love all the side character. Kyle party member ; Luna, Aron, Risinas, and Dweno, Leo classmates ;Karl, Chelsea, Illyana, Chen Xia, Eliza, Abad, Celia, Chloe, Runia, Eiran and many more. All of them are so unique that you can differentiate them just by dialogue. I like that every side character have personality that you can categorize.

For example, Karl is the weak happy go lucky guy who actually quite talented. Eliza, is the ojou-sama type with a hidden tsundere heart. Illyana, is the comedic relief with her silly lines. Runia, is the honor student that kept her foul personality a secret. Eiran is the shy bookworm with a questionable imagination.

I mean, all of them are so different and distinct. You can't help to remember how all these characters speak and behave.

Plot

I'd say, this novel is very easy to read and understand. There are no underlying plot twists. No convoluted plot. There's no overarching and dragging arc. It simply moves with this formula (problem arises- MC fight it-problem solved). Not saying it's bad though but if you're looking for the tension gripping and suspense then this novel is not for you. This novel plot is totally predictable. Like you know that no matter how bad the situation is, our MC will see through it. Again it's not bad, it's just a matter of taste because for me every arc is very enjoyable to read. It's concise, not messy, it's very easy to follow.

I must say that I actually didn't expect the amount of angst that I get from this novel. I think around chapter 400 to 600, the arc between these chapters are so full of angst lol. I cried a few times, not gonna lie. It's always sad when talking about Kyle former party member. I hope that there's a side story for them when the main story is finished. Argh, seriously I get attached to Luna and Aron the most. Berkia too.

World Building

I think the world building is okay. There's not a lot of info dumping. You get some pieces of info here and there along the journey. Like it's enough to give you the picture how this world works. Not super impressive, but it's written well.

Power system

Again, very easy to understand. You literally don't need to remember bunch of sh*t of power terms. There's only 3 class that one can choose. Knight, Summoner, and Mage. That's it. Of course, each individual has some unique abilities that differentiate them than other people but mainly the power system works by dividing people into 3 categories.

Conclusion

Is this the best novel I ever read? No. Do I enjoy it? Very. I think this novel is great for casual read. Not too light, not too heavy. It's perfect if you're looking for a story where the MC is likeable and the side characters are not annoying. Truly a fun to read.
