Rise of the Cursed Lord

If I were to be held at gunpoint and asked what my favorite book is, I would answer with 1984 by George Orwell. If I were to be asked what my favorite webnovel is, I would answer with Shadow Slave by Guiltythree. Rise of the Cursed Lord is not my favorite, but it has the potential. Although the author, SecretDrip, claims to be a 'new rookie author', I would argue that he is neither new nor a rookie. He is hiding something, just like how I am hiding myself from the federal authorities and avoiding my sentence for the numerous atrocities I have committed in Yugoslavia. Ignoring that, this webnovel definitely has a leg up on its peers in terms of characters, that much one can see even from just the first chapter alone. I won't get into the specifics since I don't want to spoil, but the dynamic that the main character has with one of the other characters was the main reason that made me realize that I was reading something good. In terms of worldbuilding and design, the author seems to have many works set in plan that, if he gives even a fraction of the brilliance that he did with the characters, would become something aweinspiring. However, everything has its flaws. In the case of Rise of the Cursed Lord, it is none other than the title itself. Jfc dude. You could have tried to come up with a better title. I mean, really? I oughta come right up to your house and blow sand through the windows for what you've done to the title. You could have done better.

there is some potential, i hope the novel Will be better.

Appeared out of nowhere, made a chapter about MC's foot fetish, went on hiatus, refused to elaborate. 10/10 would read again
