Yeah the beginning was really great with nice ideas. It was inspiring to read. But it quickly became something similar to a slice of life story.

Background: We haven't seen much. The focus is really on the MC trying to benefit from his system. The ship remain mostly unexplored, we don't know where the ship is, if it can communicate with the Federation. Where the colonial planet is, when they'll reach it. We don't know anything about the aliens and why people don't know about them since the military have been fighting them for some time. Characters: Limited. We are only shown the surface of the characters. We have no clue for the motivation for the crewmembers or their past. Plot: I'm confused about this one. The goal of the MC is vague. He talks about the game's objective: to kill all humans. However, this isn't a game so it seems he wants to take control of the ship and turn the humans into his followers. To survive? However, the way the plot affect the MC is weird. For some reasons there are two factions which reminds me of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo. The mysterious faction wants to kill him but we have no clue why. Which is super weird cause there's no reason for higher ups in a colonial ship to want to kill a doctor & partner of a lieutenant commander. One one side it is forced since we have no clue why people are suddenly killing each other onboard the ship. And on the other hand, it's weird for a faction to be willing to kill people and use violence on the ship. It's as if the ship isn't a lawful colonial ship but a ship ruled by a chaotic force. Conclusion: Read up to chapter 23. There is an effort to have a plot in the story but it is shrouded in secrecy. We are not told about the background of the ship, the past and goals of the characters and why people are trying to kill the MC. Honestly, it feels like a slice of life with an extreme focus on upgrading his skills from the system and evolving. The MC has no interest in doing things outside of growing as a parasite so the world feels constrained to him only. Everyone else is shrouded in shadows.

I like the plot so far. For once, the plot isn't directly linked to the MC to create his motivation. Instead, it's linked to the global political scene and only indirectly affect their family. Want to see more :D

Even if purity can be increased, I still don't think it's okay to put his potential behind a paywall where he has to do certain actions to increase his own talent. It's basically giving him a freebie in the form of his spiritual root (either good or bad) and then limiting it with his purity, asking him to pay in time, effort or resources to increase it. Even MC in novels are faced with paywalls nowadays...

What's the point of this world having spiritual roots and purity if the two limit each other? It's like having a pump that can absorb 50L of water per second but having a hose that can only take in 20L at a time. Each one is useless on its own, the weaker one determine how efficient it is.

The name Elspeth has anything to do with the card from Magic the gathering?

Pretty interesting, but wish it was less of a slice of life and had actual plotlines the MC was engaged in. MC doesn't seem to have a goal, just chilling and enjoying life

Is this a slice of life novel? There's not much happening and we don't know the MC motivation or goal

Kikyo should have her eyes intact. It was Killua that hurt her before leaving to take the hunter exam once he decided to stop being an assassin.

Gotoh failed as a supervisor. He not only showed preferential treatment toward one of the candidates but also personally interfered to improve a candidate chance to succeed. He's setting an example for the other butlers to be corrupt.
