The power growth is kinda weird in this one because there are many times where the MC seems to have just become the strongest thing in the series and then not that much time later we see just how wrong that assumption was. It's not like we were wrong about how strong he was, we just didn't know how strong everyone else was.

He also might be going into hibernation a couple more times

See this! I just gifted the story: Inspiration capsule

I think this is my most hated chapter since the start of The Mech Touch. For over 1200 chapters Ves built up so many relationships with characters that we have gotten to know and at least I have grown to like. Then within the span of 10 chapters we get introduced to new character that singlehandedly destroyed at least half of Ves's lasting relationships or put them in a worse place. Master Olson no longer wants anything to do with him, Oleg could still collaborate with Ves but I doubt it at this stage, the entire Friday Coalition is now hostile territory, Ketis is now at the very least angry at Ves, and Carlos has straight up left after dealing with his problems at his families place so that he could continue to work for Ves and become a part of his design team. We traded all of that for Gloriana, who so far to me is just fanatic girl with a background. To me this is the worst trade deal in history. Especially because it wasn't a conscious decision Ves made, in fact Ves made the decision I would have wanted him to make and tried to wash his hands of Gloriana as soon as possible. But that apparently didn't matter to her which makes me hate her even more as a character thus making me like the trade even less. I can only hope this somehow gets reversed or amended somehow. I like Oleg, I like Carlos, they're the biggest reasons I don't like Gloriana aside from the fact she makes Ves a spineless wimp.

Can't wait for Felix to casually stroll over, bend down and pick up the crown while every player watches him. That unique title is as good as his.

I'm honestly really happy with the sand element, he fought the sand snake in the maze and it seemed to use the element pretty effectively. Also it's different from what you would expect. It might seem generic but I don't think we would see an MC with it from most other authors so I'm excited.
