Honestly, can't find anything wrong with this. Writing is great. Stability is very consistent. Characters are realistic. The background is not a lot, but not too little. Problem is the power scaling of the MC. If the MC isn't streamrolling a majority of his opponents, then this isn't a logical or fun story, just a forced plot. 1. Top tier player, went back in time. Already fat advantage. 2. Noble birth, another advantage. 3. Knowledge of fighting techniques, another advantage. 4. Knowledge of hidden quests and places and whatnot, another fat advantage. You could have any one of these advantages and you'd be a strong player. Now, with all of them combined, the MC should be absolutely bodying, every single one of his opponents. From what I've read so far from the comments and replies by the author, the story seems to be heading towards a "strong to stronger" type. Not just straight-up overpowered. "Sure but where's the story then?" What about romance? Meeting up with friends again? Flexing on noobs? I admit I like Gary Stu plot. Sure, it's lame, but it's fun for me and that's exactly why I tried out this novel. "Wrong place then for such a story," you say? Lmfao, look at the 4 reasons above why I thought it was a Gary Stu in the first place. But good story overall. Also, too slow-paced for my liking.

hmm, maybe my wording was off. Anyway, you should read the story and let it speak for itself. By chapter 13, there isn't really any fights so you can't really judge. One thing I can promise is that I won't force the plot to be something it doesn't want to be.
