This novel is so good that i just had to make a review. I must say this is straight up deserves to be in the top ranking in wn both in golden tix and power stone. This novel has so many highs through out the novel. Some notable ones which i could remember on top of my head are the church ma*acre arc, japanese genocide arc, first supernatural meeting, the three wives vs pillar demons, vic vs entire biblical hel (special mention to vic vs horseman war), vic vs fenrir fight, then vic vs three primordial gods (and 2 god-kings) and currently the second meeting which is ongoing. in just 871 it has so much peak which can't even be compare to some of the novels with 2000 chapters. for that i must commend you author. Your fillers vs hype moments is very well done. Specially if you are reading all this in one go. You will see just how great the pacing and story for the novel is. Now some of the issues i had while reading the novel i will list them as well, it's fair that i praise the novel so i should also bring out it's short coming (though these short coming; most of them are very easy to fix as the story goes on).
1) victor's growth: as much as it is very well done and everything makes sense, but his power in itself leaves a lot to the speculation of the readers, not having a concrete power structure and not knowing what victor or his enemies are capable of does put a lot of things in the air and sometime it feels like maive a pull, like the fight with the 3 primordial gods (logic made sense of the gods not using their true form in that fight while fighting vic and showing vic evolved, all of that makes sense, but we do not even know how strong true form 'primordial gods' are, what we know is they are weaker then mc who fought them while he was 'god king' power, you get what i mean right. no where in the novel we have been given a 'definite' power structure which makes no sense at all. (i will get to that chapter 0 in a moment). I will be honest, i am a very big fan of planetary, galactic, universal and multiversal level of fights and i am seeing this novel going in that direction which is a ma**ive plus. This allows you to being 'outerverse gods' who should be astronomically stronger then whatever gods are in the 'backwater cosmos' (i believe we were told this for earth location) to 'mid region cosmos' but please give us some sort leveling structure or chart to keep tabs on every gods and what type of power scale they would have. (i have seen something like that done on the wiki fandom 'power hierarchy' and victor's 'power level' page, as much as i like it, it says that it's been done as a fan-made stuff so that doesn't really cut it. Till the novel itself validate it. There will be mistakes in that. Well anyways i think you may have some things planned regarding power structure which you could show in the future so i will stop saying more about this issue.
2) (a) harem: i love big harems specially when mc is not a simp and gets 'undeserved' love from fmcs and those 'cold shoulder' giving fmcs do not exist in this novel which i truly love about the harem. Now the issue is, with such a big harem it is bound to have screen time issues with the girls. I have seen plenty of novels suffer from this so it is not new, but this novel is just so good that genuine criticism and issues are very 'generic' issues present in all the harem novels. Some wives like victoria, mizuki, siena, lacus, eve/alter eve(surprisingly she is probably the least of the maids to get screen time), rose, eleonor, haruna (her presence in the novel in terms of wife is on the weaker side), demon generals like vine, vepar, helena, lily even though there work itself forces them to be in hel* and manage things there but this doesn't change the fact that they feel so extra and (very weak? or just the fights we see in this novel have reached such a point that normally strong beings feel weak).
(b) lovers/love interests: with the theme this novel is going with 'emperor' vic and 'empress' violet its already fair to say that the current harem would increase due to victor's personality. characters like natasha (naty), carmila, valeria, maya feels very badly executed, they could be much more but with the novels pacing, their appearance timing makes them feel extremely irrelevant to the story, though i see this can change very easily as faction power matters a lot in wars and they could become strong enough to be considered one of the 'powerhouses' of dragon nest but for now, they feel weak to be worth anything. Also please do something with anna, i personally do not care if she truly leaves leon (as far i remember they didn't had any vampire ritual so they are not married) or stays with leon, but end this mini 'drama-like' arc that's been in background since she transformed into vampire. Even in the 'omake/future' chapter its hinted that anna is still with victor and was still referred as 'mother-in-law' i just don't know what to make of it, whatever you choose, please choose it fast so readers are not being left there hanging for so long.
(c) goddesses such as lilith, nyx, gaia, amaterasu, hera, rhea, frigga (maybe in the norse conquest he also gets her?), hela (it's been hinted for a while that he will get the ruler so it is a matter of time), kali (ain't gonna lie i really do want her but idk if you would be fine with those 'religious' people acting like keyboard warriors and keep hara**ing you so i will just leave it to you.), hestia (her case has been dragging on for 200ish chapters, you should really conclude it soon.).
3) general characters: i have noticed this but there is a severe lack of 'strong' and 'competent' male characters ( i do not count genderfluid beings like regulators or end beast). I do not know what you really plan, but this novel could do really well with male characters who could be reoccurring and friends with victor (character like shiva could be great as beauty and charm doesn't really work effectively against him so good friendship could be form with characters like him and those characters should be able to face against victor and could do a 'draw match' though we know victor is stronger then shiva but you get the point, just introduce beings who are on the same level as victor even if they are millions or billions of years older then him but at least the novel shouldn't just be female dominated powerhouses). Though don't get me wrong, i don't want male characters to join victor's dragon nest pantheon but just good friends who could rival each other and force each other to become stronger and stronger
4) usage of words: there is a very very high over usage of words such as 'handsome' and sentences about how victor is this and that, we really don't need to be reminded of how handsome, strong, competent, genius victor is, we know everything, we have been seeing his pov all this time, we know him more then his harem itself knows of him. You should really cut down on same sentences being repeated in every other chapter while stroking victor's naturally big ego. It is very hypocritical that victor says how big gods ego are and all, but next we see his ego is even bigger then all the gods combine, sure victor has the power to have that ego but that doesn't really mean you have to repeat it all the time.
5) retconning information: I have seen a few times that the information which we are told gets thrown out of the window with new info which makes every info-dump that characters give meaningless. prime example would be yggdrasil, she was said to be a neutral tree when Scathach said about her bad personality and she had seen her. then 200~300 chapters later victor says that there is a negative side of the world tree in biblical hel? so the initial a*essment of yggdrasil being neutral tree is wrong. Another being amaterasu and her brothers, initially her brothers, susanoo and tsukiyomi were told to be average gods, but later we are told that amaterasu is a second generation primordial god that would literally mean that her brothers are also the same, so why were they ever called average gods in chapter 0 when victor's power was discussed. Kali case is also super weird like, she was said to be in same level as special being like vlad but then we got told that she is literally the strongest goddess and near the path to become a primordial entity, the information retcons that happen through out the story is not good. Vlad is also has a very funny situation, he was introduced as one of the strongest being and him alone resulted in other pantheons to not attack his faction and was capable of making friends with shiva and limbo, but the more you are shown the more you see how weak mortal factions truly are, witches were always weak, werewolves only had fenrir but otherwise they are weak, vampires had the countesses and vlad but now countesses are in another faction, vlad alone means vampires and werewolves are more or less in same situation. Yokai? well they were introduced as a new faction and they joined victor's faction so they were spared from the start. Eldergods who want to remove vampires from their planet, their god-king is said to be as strong as victor (you said it in a comment but its not said in the novel so i expect a retcon to this anyway), why the fk elder gods couldn't get rid of vlad and his vampire faction before even victor story started? this just makes no sense at all.
6) ranking: i have seen some mentions of top 10 gods and such, but we never really got that list and we genuinely just have no idea how many strong gods and mortals are even in the earth sector and universe. In the initial a**essment on chapter 0 literally all primordial gods (1st and 2nd gen) are ranked 1 which really doesn't help with the understanding of powerful people, through out the novel we are told that power level is not constant, which is nice, but if we do not even have a base concrete standards for power some of these 'generalized gods and beings' have, how can we even imagine what would happen if these two beings fight or who would be able to fight one vs one with victor and such. That part just doesn't exist in this novel.
These were some of the points i wanted to bring out and say to you while reading this novel, i see a lot and lot of potential that still hasn't been tapped in this novel and there could be so many plots and arcs that could be explored in the future. Thanks for this amazing novel and keep doing your best with this novel. I love reading this story so much
