    ~ 1300 chapter review ~ Currently not caught up yet, but so far I’ve throughly enjoyed the story. The plot itself is interesting. It goes from a sort of sudden apocalyptic setting to something more similar the xianxia-cultivation world, both of which I’ve dabbled in in the past. Despite some inconsistencies here and there, the story still occasionally has me totally engrossed with blood pumping from excitement. The author is good at absteining from cliches, and although it sometimes seems kind of forced, it gives the story a satisfactory douse of originality. The authors writing is constantly evolving throught the story, and approaching ch1000 it suddenly takes a jump, a happy suprise I must say. Still, maybe as a consequence of this, it sometimes seems like the author changes their mind mid story, either discarding previous parts of the story, an example being the first power gauging system, or suddenly adding things that should have been explained previously, like sudden increase in proficiencies of the mc, in this case, just explaining that he had been working on it on the side would be enough. Of course more often than not, these inconsistencies are properly explained and sure they might have been a conscious choice and part of the story, but I still think the story would be elevated without them. The story has several more such inconsistent occurrences, which is the main reason my overall rating decreases a notch. Nevertheless they are easy to overlook and it’s a story I still would recommend to a friend looking for an interesting read.

    At first I though you wrote: "Rather than getting engaged. Finding Shadow Slave has been one of the joys of this year." Which I found as a bit of a strech, but somehow not completey ureasonable lol

    After taking a break from Webnovel for a while, this was my first novel after my return to the site. After catching up to the latest chapter, I'm now left feeling empty and hollow. I must say, no other novel has made me feel this way before, and even if I can't compare to the true veterans of this site, I've read my fair share, among them many of the highest rated. This might be the best novel I've read, although I can't rule out the fact that my hiatus may have left me easier to please. Still, the writing is nothing except exceptional, with great and original twists and characters. The characters can't exclusively be loved or hated, they're neither completely good nor evil, making them much more real and human. Having mastered the art of unpredictability, the author gives the readers a comfortable reading experience while sometimes making them stand up on their toes. The only fault I could find, after digging though my mind, is that the Second Nightmare lasted a bit too long. I caught myself sometimes longing to move on from it, and read about what would come after. However, don't get me wrong. I did love every bit of it, and now looking back, I kind of wish it was longer. The uncomfortable feeling made the ending all the better, and was absolutely worth it in the end. It's not a perfect novel, but it might just be the closest thing to it. Truly a great novel I would highly recommend!

    it is a typo tho. Her name is Cassie not Cassia

    He shifted and hesitated for a bit. Cassia didn't look too well. Her face was still very pale, with a distant, dazed expression on it. Her body at least was no longer trembling. Sunny wasn't very good at talking to people, let alone placating them. He wasn't sure what to say.

    I agree, however I think what shes trying to say is that when entering combat, you have to act with the intent to murder the other, and not just survive, or else you wont be able to win or something like that. Still, I agree survive might have been the better answer, but it doesnt sound as cool.

    "At the core of it, there is only this: you are trying to kill your opponent, and they are trying to kill you. In the end, one of you will be killed, and the other one will be the killer. Everything else is just noise."

    In other people's eyes, he's also practically a dead person

    Sunny grimaced. It seemed that the two of them were doomed to be outcasts together for the remaining four weeks. He also felt uncomfortable in the company of someone who was practically a dead person, but there wasn't much of a choice.

    Sunny glanced around, then winked at his shadow and smiled.

    Actually, it's "You cannot lie", but whatever. It probably includes having to answer questions if asked as well

    Once asked a question, he could not keep quiet. He also couldn't lie. However, after a lot of experimentation, Sunny had found out that with a bit of practice, he could influence the exact way the truth eventually came out.

    it was one of the carvers. dunno if that was Advant or not

    "There's plenty more fighting to do," she warned them, "anyone skipping torpor will be sent straight back to the nest. Maybe you can explain to mother why you thought you knew better than to do as the Colony asked of you."

    your mom was deep and profound

    That sound seeped through their ears, into their brains before it sunk into a deeper place, a primal place of fear and terror that every child knows and adults wish they could forget. For many, the madness that followed was almost a relief.
