A very interesting story. I enjoyed the background and setting. The author has a bright future ahead of them should they decide to keep writing. Writing quality: The first two chapters are written very well, though I would suggest that the author try to keep the same quality consistent throughout their story. Stability of updates: It's only 5 chapters for now, so I can't say much here, but it does seem like it's updated regularly. Story development: Though it feels a bit rushed at times, the author has a strong sense of moving the story along at an engaging and thrilling pace. Character design: Though we are introduced to the characters early, they all feel very unique and thought out. I would recommend that the author take extra time to detail their characters throughout the story, but again, the novel is it it's early stages. World background: A very nice take on a fantasy world. Magic feels grounded and logical and gives a low-mid fantasy feeling throughout. Overall, a very enjoyable read. I wish the author the best of luck as they continue writing. Happy reading.
An unpolished description, not quite as gruesome as I had in mind. Apologies if it does not suffice.
Reality is often sobering.

A really good read. I was instantly transfixed in the story and felt the author's passion and commitment in the novel. The writing quality is near perfect. I only noticed minor grammatical mistakes in the early chapters, which I'm sure have been fixed as time has gone on. The language that is used is vivid and bright, leaving strong images in my mind. It's perfect for a webcomic adaption. Story development is great. I never felt like it had dragged on or had gone too fast. I was able to follow along very well, not feeling my attention be pulled away by anything else. Character design, while borrowing from some tropes, is very solid. Fully original characters are practically impossible nowadays, but the author does very good in making the MC feel unique. I felt invested in his story and was curious to see where it went. The world background is superb. I saw so many uses of descriptions that I would love to use in my own story. While it also borrowed from tropes, it felt far more original than many other stories I have read which have the same setting. Overall, a 4.6 in a very good story. I will be adding this to my collection and I am looking forward to future chapters. Good job, author. Happy writing.
Unfortunate. The novel itself is called Sanguis et Os. Thank you.
An interesting novel with a unique premise, the author is very imaginative with their story telling. Having only four chapters, I am excited to see where the story goes. The writing quality suffers a bit. The author uses words that are too similar to each other in the same sentence. I've also noticed struggles in pluralization, punctuation, and sentence structure. The author does have strong points, such as descriptive and vivid language. The story development is a bit choppy, the MC always moving from one place to the next without much in-between. While it is fast-paced, it doesn't feel quite right to be jumping around so much. Likewise, the character design is rough. While the MC is described as cold and numb, a masochist for depressive thoughts, he seems to involved with the world to match his description. The MC's name also fluctuates, which may hold some context that I am missing. The world background is also confusing. It uses a classic system, but not enough background is put into the world to allow me to feel immersed. I often found myself having more questions then there were answers provided. The author is imaginative. I'm sure the novel has had a rough start, but overtime will get better as the author grows. Happy writing.
A very good novel, especially in the fantasy genre. While the Isekai tag is somewhat played out, this book takes a fresh look at the genre and breathes new life into it. The writing quality is absolutely perfect. No complaints from me. I never noticed any grammatical errors or spelling mistakes and I specifically seek them out. Each sentence flows smoothly and every paragraph feels well crafted. Story development is great. We are not treated to long and often overplayed stories of the MC's previous life (at least from what I have read) that can bog down the story. Character design is unique. The MC adapts well to his new environment, so while the trope is still there, it never feels overplayed or redundant. Most Isekai protagonists tend to annoy me, especially with their personalities. I am happy to report that Rex/Rouge never felt annoying. The world background is wonderful. I love all the European aspects that were taken from our world. I'm so used to seeing Asian influence that I was genuinely surprised to see very little to none of it. Over all, a very good book. I will be adding this to my library and I am excited to see where this goes. Happy writing, author.
A very promising start to a very promising novel! I was thoroughly impressed with the premise of the book, loving the unique world and ideas the author has written. The writing quality of the book is great. Only small grammatical errors that are hard to notice unless you are looking for them. I happen to be a proofreader, so that is the only way I was able to tell. Some words are repeated a little too often, but overall the writing is captivating and well done. I would just work on the paragraph structure, making sure each slows smoothly. The story development is fast, leaving the reader eager to read more and to engage in the story. While it only has 4 chapters at the time of writing, I can tell that each arc will be very memorable arcs in the story that people are sure to love. Character design is great. I was able to fall into the MC's mindset instantly and empathize with his goals. A little young for my own personal taste, but otherwise the characters are built well. World background is the best part of the story in my own opinion. I love the unique setting and the way everything is framed. It feels super expansive, detailed, and immersive, almost making me wish I could live there. Overall, a 4.6. Very well done, author. I look forward to your future work. Happy writing.
Really well written novel. It's chapters are of a good length where you feel as if you have gotten enough of the story without feeling as if it had dragged on. The writing quality is superb. Very little to no grammatical mistakes were made in the writing, it's sentence structure is very strong, and the word choice is very good. It was never a chore to read and each sentence flowed smoothly into the next. Story development is a bit slow for my taste, but I'm sure that's just how romance novels go. The author does a god job of dropping mysterious elements in order to keep the reader guessing, but these elements never feel out of place. Character design is strong. Descriptions are vivid, personalities are made apparent, and each character feels unique. My only mild concern is that I feel like tropes may be played a bit too often, but that is a very opinionated thing to say. Others won't care as much. World background is also great. I enjoyed the time skip into the modern era. It made the novel not drag on and feel fresh and exciting. Overall, I enjoyed the novel, despite the fact I am not a fan of the romance genre. Keep up the good work, author.
Despite only having eleven chapters, this novel is very long. Those who enjoy it's story are in for a treat. The quality of writing is very good, only having advanced minor grammatical mistakes. The author is very descriptive and it is hard to get lost or to lose the plot. The third person view is well done, giving the reader good insight into the female lead. The story development is what I would describe as a 'slow burn.' It takes a while for the novel to get going, but you are invested in the character and genuinely wishing her the best. I like faster-paced novels, but I was surprised as to how well it captured my attention. Character design is fairly polished, only missing a few small points. Some character description would be appreciated, but the personality, way of speech, and general outline of each character is done very well.
