Don't let tags fool you - this is clearly a light harem novel with 11 years old boy as an OP MC. Writing quality is quite good, but as it becomes a harem novel after early chapters, half of the chapters after chapter 30-40 are skippable, filled with admiration of the MC by other female characters or stupid plots of male side characters, who dislike their crush being after MC. It's not harem exactly, but I think I'm not wrong to call book harem if there are over 6 female characters who hardly simp on MC and it takes half of the chapters to describe it. By the way, in the whole book there is no other important male character beside MC - all plot leading characters are females who in one way or another obsessed with MC (from 11 years old girls to adults). MC is also swearing to have his revenge on quite a lot of characters, but all description of his revenge is usually reserved for one or two sentences, while description of female characters thoughts about MC can take up to 40% of some chapters. Story develops with a timeskips and is fast paced if you skip fillers, which mean you can reduce volume of the book by at least 40%. Character design is what you will expect from harem fanfiction - no depth in any of characters beside MC. MC is quite good if you ignore promise of him being the arcane THIEF. There were 3 detailed scenes of him actually stealing something, and it wasn't any hard thievery for him - in one he was stealing female panties, in other school supplies; other one is fine, but to avoid spoilers I won’t mention it. Other thefts are only described like "He cleanly robbed character N" and that's it. World background is modified Harry Potter background. As MC haven't explored the world properly it's hard to tell if it better then original or worse, but from my opinion it doesn't seems too bad. I won't even have complained about this book and wrote this review if not the fact that it just simply doesn't deliver what is promised. Instead of breathtaking thriller theft scenes, which are expected from MC background and book name, sudden harem out of nowhere gets dumped on you. But if you want to read light harem novel with OP MC from streets in Harry Potter setting (after a few early dark chapters book isn’t any darker then original HP, don’t let tags fool you) - this book may be for you.

Jhin?

Well... I guess I was wrong in previous chapter. Although I still have a little hope in partly kind Neph, it's hard not to believe that this is hers true goal and that she knows the price for it, after this chapter. But still, there is no way she haven't interpreted the last part of Cassie's prophecy as Sunny killing her, but still left him alive?

Somehow, I still believe she wants to help them. She doesn't need any of them, except maybe 3-4 people, to attempt to escape - others are way out of needed power level to help, so there's no need to even bother to feed/train/help them, if she plans to use everyone. Maybe it's connected to Cassie's unspoken words back at barrow?

Best ost from series

Prophecy completed

Wow, thanks for an amazing list! I wonder, have you tried reading Embers ad Infinitum? It's a book from author of Lord of the Mysteries, with post-apocalypse setting, deep world and characters, and as would be expected from amazing author, superb storytelling.

I like how everyone keep messing with Merlin's name and call him Ghost :d

Best ally for Sunny. I bet he is overly relying on his 'flaw' (I think that is how he got trapped), so he will be able to fully trust the most honest person who for sure never play with words

So... Because not stating until then their oath works, if wolf dies anytime mc avatar will be destroyed. On top of that, her third term doesn't have any meaning - if she gets top 3 quest already complited, and getting strong weapon doesn't have anything to do with mc. All that for getting help (quite vague thing), getting in contact with her (also vague) and knowing about others plans (which they formulated in about 1 minute while mc was assigning stats, so from logical perspective she lied about them having plans)

They got death penalty for one in game day, no?

Sunny decided to kill poor man by heart attack

Terrifying?

Thank you for amazing chap!

Nice detail

I think 2nd line is somehow related to book with words (Will, Mind, Void) And 3rd is maybe about celestial eyes, Eye of truth? (With ability to see World Threads or maybe other upgrade, which is yet to be revealed)
