First off I'll be straight forward. I don't like this book. Not because it's poorly written or a bad premise but mainly because key parts of the main character are developed during time skips. Anyways for the breakdown... The book is very easy to read, spelling and grammatical errors are few and far between. Technical wise the book is a delight compared to some stories which are so badly edited it makes your eyes bleed as the writer/translator tries to maintain their own languages nuances in English. Story development... the plot is well laid out, the pacing is okay, as initially stated though this delight to watch unfold gets a kick in the proverbial balls at the end of volume one and the story skips a year. Things go down hill from there. Character design... I honestly love all the supporting cast. From the monsters to the humans all are well written and fleshed out... the main character however is a mess. Very early on its revealed he has a hero complex and while its believable that he becomes a monstrous hero the fact he goes full Hannibal over a single chapter is mind blowing stupid. There's no conflict of morality of having a human become a monster, its just 'Eh I'm a monster now, when in Rome!' Even worse is a key part of his character development happens during the volume one end time skip, its just thrust upon the readers as hey look, he has a new major character issue during that year that you know might have been interesting to learn about... except is thrown in when faced against a Supreme opponent... ignoring the fact he faced a similarly impossible existence not a few chapters prior and didn't use it... Its like the author pulls this super power out of his ass on a whim, no build up or hint just bam Kace is now the juggernaut with plot armor. Updates... I think it updates regularly, after the above issue I couldn't read anymore. The fact the author skipped time again soon after this super power was enacted just killed my desire to continue. World Background... the world is well flushed out. The setting is very interesting. Just a pity the eyes we get to experience it through is just trash. If the story was literally focused on anyone other than the MC we'd see more of this great world. Overall, its a great technical read, I encourage you to read it for yourself. The time skips over integral main character developments/plot progression is what killed it for me, such may not be true for you.

The Bloodline System

In a future timeline, the earth was visited by a species known as the Slarkovs. Having lost their home planet and in search of a new one, the Earth was the next habitable planet for them. Humans and Slarkovs made a deal with each other in return for the Slarkovs living on Earth. The Slarkovs traded their technology and knowledge for a new home. They were similar to humans except for some of them who had slight differences, so fitting into society wasn't a problem. Over the years, Slarkovs and humans began to mate with one another and reproduce offspring. This, in turn, created new species known as the mixedblood. Centuries later, mixedbloods could tap into their bloodline and perform unimaginable feats. Gustav was born into an age where bloodline determines everything and struggles to fit in with a useless bloodline. His bloodline only grants him the ability to change his hair colour, destroying his hopes and dreams for a great future. His fate is turned around when an unexpected situation leads to him finding a system that grants him the power to unlock and upgrade bloodlines by completing quests, but he's baffled by two quests with a five-year deadline. Success will grant him unimaginable rewards... But only one thing awaits him if he fails... Death! Follow Gustav on his interesting journey filled with unprecedented adventures, danger, and death, maybe? PS: The MC's character growth happens more than once in this story.

My SSS-Rank Class Is Blood Monarch!

'Divinity Online'. The new breakthrough in the Full-Immersion Virtual Reality technology. After decades of work, Divinity Corp had achieved the impossible. Creating a massive video game world that people can enter and live in as if it were Earth. Their goal was clear, to create a world other than Earth that we can call home. A place where the laws of reality vanish, and the true ceiling of power shifts completely. Naturally, the shockwave Divinity Online created across the entire globe was unlike anything else. Every single person has heard of it, even those who have had no interest in video games before. Giant corporations and even governments immediately rushed to start planning to invest in this new world and just like that, billions of people had their eyes on one single date: the 19th of July. *** Arthur, like everyone else, had heard of the game and was as excited as everyone else to try it, if not even more. With how much he grew bored of his life on earth, this fantasy world was like the divine call he had been searching for. However, there was a very small problem. He had no money to buy the machine required to access Divinity Online. His wretched life had turned him into a broke teenager with no parents, and no relatives. But, by some kind of luck, he got his hands on one of those machines. Not knowing what was awaiting him in that world, Arthur was simply seeking one thing... A new opportunity in life and to find a purpose he could work for when he had none so far. [Welcome to 'Divinity Online'.] [Assimilation Started...]
