This novel has me a bit torn because the story is overall okey but there are some major flaws that drags it down. For instance there are a lot of flawed logic and controveristy in the stort that becomes either bigger or smaller as the story goes on. To start of the MC is madly in love with humans and anything that has anything to do with them. The MC keeps proclaiming how great they are, how they can evolve do great things etc etc. However the setting of the story is that the gods jointly created the world and made the humans by combining the 6 elements. Right after this the other 5 gods decide that the humans should be their s*aves/worship them forever which angers the MC into fighting against them and eventually losing and being sealed for 1600 years because of it. This basically means that the MC knows nothing about humans at all from the background given but he is still extremly pro human. A bit of spoiler on this part. Spoiler
Now this might sound like a good act, but is it? When it happens the earth godess is slowly dying because of the fact that she has been sealing something that threatens to destroy the world. The MC had already dealt with it but no one told the godess to stop sealing the area. Some might argue that he told her to move, but he never warns her only telling her to move after shooting and then "killing" her.
We later also learn that all the other gods were created from the MC, and that basically they were all created simply as tools to create the perfect world for the MC after which they would cease to be useful and he could erase them if he so desired because they had lost their use, the MC could also destroy the whole world if he deemed it a failure. So the MC is something akin to a crazy scientist that holds only fanatacism towards his creations[collapse] The author seems to love to create facts and rules only to debunk them within a few chapters or more. For instance for a human to live there must be balance between the 6 elements, if not they will become super weak or die, said by the god who made humans. 2 chapters later it is explained that the light hero had this problem while being young, solution? Simply train to control said element, and you'll be fine don't worry about the fact that training in said element will make the body even more imbalanced since training with an element will make you get more of that element. This part might be silly of me but another thing is that it is proclaimed that gods can't use other powers then their own element, even so the godess of light manages to create a new element called shadow. Which is basically a weak imitation of darkness but created from the light element. So what is it? Basically the most op sh*t ever since darkness only real weakness is light, because shadow was made from light it absorbs light and is somehow immune to the other 4 elements and only darkness element can stop it while it's still weak. The reincarnation of the MC is weird to say the least. The MC can basically choose to reincarnate into any body that is dead or simply create a body for himself to inhabit. But chooses to reincarnate into the stillborn child of an old couple living in a small village of 50 people. Even though he keeps proclaiming he wants to explore the world. This starting part together with a lot of other occasions serves to show what a pushover the MC is even though he is a god unless when it is on a point that is disadvantageous to humans. I could go on and on but overall what annoys me most is how fickle the author is with the story proclaiming something one chapter taliking about it at lenght at times only to make it invalid in the next moment. What does make the story a bit interessting to me is the simple fact that if you look at all the pieces you will find that the MC is in short terms a half-crazed tyrant. Overall though there are many many better read out there so I would not recommend this to anyone.Edit*Ethereal is mentioned as a fuel/energy that enables humans to progress and is one of the main reasons for the plot even happening. It is weird how the gods who can directly reincarnate or interfere with the world couldn't just simply remove ethereal since it served no shown function in the world except working as a power source for machines and technology.
The other gods create new life forms "monsters" whos main puprose is to kill or drive fear into humanity into worshipping the gods again. These are directly seen as evil which I would agree that they are but at the same time they are still living beings. But to the MC they should all be erased since they threaten humans, he even goes as far as instantly killing the godess of earth because she enacts a plan that threatens to turn thousands of humans into mindless drones to stop the fighting and give energy to the earth godess.
