Forced slavery on the main character which his family and even himself is fine with? Garbage and forced just to set up the "Prince of Darkness" storyline. No clue why everyone thinks this is a great novel.

well if you kept reading you would know why it's not like he's an actual slave it's just in name and consider the collar an accessory plus his family is kinda easy going especially his grandpa that guy is just crazy and does whatever he wants he knows that mc will need to go through some things to grow up strong if you kept reading you would understand

Considering the age they live in, being seen with a slave collar is a humiliation. If they wanted to make him understand about the world and grow up they could just throw him into the wilderness. Just because the old man is easy going doesn't mean anyone should accept humiliation, especially not family.

welp if you would have continued reading you would understand why the slave collar was handed to William and to criticize the reader's for liking something without knowing the full picture. I think it's best you din't leave a review at all than to insult peps with your trashy review.

prince of darkness is the established title for the darkness skill line... its about as final as it gets, the only thing that would change it is if the author got cold feet after it was pointed out how horrible the prophecy trope was..... as for the collar.. i read far enough to know it was useless.. author realised it was useless so he decided to give it a final form skill mid fight for plot armor...let me guess... MC reuses the stupid pointless collar down the line for harem??? anything silly to give it actual meaning....

while I don't desagree with the harem thing and that the only point for the slave collar was just to have some kinda slave kink things for the reader's but I won't call a one time use item plot armor I think it's just used as a teaser or taste for the possibility of the dark prince class. also yes not a big fan of harem aswel but I do enjoy a good story

I've also noticed that despite many comments mentioning ntr and stuff later in the novel this novel has no 1-2 star reviews which is quite frankly impossible, guessing author erases the bad reviews so going to avoid this novel myself tbh, novels with only biased reviews on here for an echo chamber for the author means it's probably pretty bad once things get to the premium stuff as is the case with most novels on here.

Yup. Netorare is an extremely sensitive topic and no matter how good a story is, there's no way it wouldn't receive a bunch of 1 stars if it has NTR in it.

it's my first time knowing author could delete reviews. That's a blasphemy, but it makes more sense seeing now low rate reviews (which is very sus).

I agree, I couldn't take it anymore after reading 160+. Romanticizing slavery is a big NO. Even if the person suffered the slavery, if a normal thinking person acts, they shouldn't pass it on to others unless you are the villain and the reality is, She is not, you know, "Master" Celine. Others might hate prophecy but for me it's kinda "okay", still the prophecy for MC to get romantic with the master is so absurd. After reading 160, I've had enough. MC is really childish, not even an ounce of maturity even after the harsh training with Ezio. Didn't know up to this point that it was NTR but that's a no for me. I wish I could've read the reviews soon. Officially drop but hey, it was good at first and it went downhill too fast. I thought it was good because I like system genres but this is the worst I've read so far with system.

TLDR: This is one of the best novels I have ever read. If you are comfortable with all of the tags on this book, I strongly urge you to read it as well. Long Version: At 501 chapters as of reviewing this work, this is one of the best written, planned, and executed novels I have ever read. While action, systems, magic, abilities, romance, love, and harems can be difficult to write well this is a master craft in not only exectuing all of them, but combining them into a tale that is funny, heartwarming, fear inducing, and constantly evolving. The 18+ sections and potentially traumatic sections are marked well so that people not interested can skip them without missing too much context, while used effectively to inform the reader about characters moral such as those who do and do not ask for consent in romantic and sexual moments. The characters are rich and three dimensional, ever character of importance has goals, dreams, and acts based upon them rather than being only plot devices. It feels like a developed world that we are just following this protagonist through. Each battle has a purpose, every person has a role to play, however short, and theg come together to create a story unlike any I have read. The fights, abilities, and system are some of the best as well. They make sense in context of use, fights are one by picking good strategies and taking risks as necessary. Growth is observed Often through battles as well as time skips to center on the most important moments. This is to the stories credit, as some novels feel extra long to make more money when barely anything happens or changes from the readers perspective. This novel has every word count, they all are important to the story whether for laughs, or to inspire awe. I have never felt that my money was spent for nothing. However that does not mean that the author barrels through things, rather they take their time at the moments that matter, and allow characters room to breathe, grow, and understand their relationships. There are very few novels I have read throughout my life that I hold this esteem for, and most of them are fantasy classics. If after reading this review you are still unsure I urge you to at least try the free chapters, and see if it is for you. I truly hope you enjoy this book, and that you grow to love it just as much as I do. I will be sure to update this every 500 chapters or so as long as I am reading. Thank you, author, for this book, and looking forward to reading more!

unfortunately, i feel like i have wasted my time reading this, and most of this review will probably be what i dislike about this great novel. a great beginning, that will probably hook in most who like this genre, showing interesting characters as the story goes on. as Will (MC) becomes older, more of the world is revealed, but not explored beyond "this is this, and that is that." although it feels slow-paced, the author is constantly releasing chapters. however, sometimes the writing feels muddy and repetitive, but i think those moments became rarer as i continued reading. i think many people will probably like this story with the exception of a few things like Will's shepherd class, Celine in general, and maybe Will's character. all the way until the tldr at the end are spoilers, so skip if you don't want those. i don't like Celine, mainly because her character is defined as "yandere crazy, but is actually a good person at heart." in the first few chapters she is shown, her only redeeming action was helping Lont. right before she enslaves Will as the price because he was the one to interrupt her experiment. she goes to torture him for the sake of his training and building resistance to dark magic. his reaction is: "She is a good person." Will's only mention of resentment is a single sentence and is only "a little bit." basically, she never looks or seems like a good person, because she never does anything to warrant that besides random thoughts where she sympathizes with Will. an unlikeable character for me. it might just be my bad memory, but i don't think Will has any meaningful character development. throughout the 114 chapters, he is always the happy boy who is kind to others, but comedically narcissistic. besides learning his motivations for the future and maturing in the most obvious ways, he is painfully generic. the only unique thing i can say about him is his narcissistic joke. hopefully his changes are more prominent after he recovers from his apathetic mood around chapter 114 or his training in general. lastly, the entire novel up to now feels like a very, very long setup. i have already said this is slow-paced, because it seems like the author is setting up and showing all of these characters who will be relevant to future plot points. some are even the cause of future plot points (Celine, Ella, Will's mother), but i think this is what ruins it for me. i do not know when this setup will ever pay off, and i'm not enjoying the novel as much as i was before. to me, it's dragging on and i don't want to invest more time into it. tldr; feels like the novel drags on, and many small events that i don't like pile up and ruin my enjoyment of it. it's still a great story, so for those reading this, please do give it a try. it might just be for you.

I started reading this thinking it would be an okay read to pass time because off the generic name and interesting synopsis, but man... was I wrong The story really reeled me in from the first chapter with how fun Will's death letter was and his interactions with the Gods. The pacing was just right for me and I felt the story never progressed too slow. Even the weird little interactions between character that might not be important at all don't feel unnecessary. I can definitely day this story has one of the best Character Development across the app as we see Will grow from a small goat milk loving baby to a goat milk loving young adult. The harem and romance was done amazingly as well. The interactions between Will and his lovers ( even before they get into relationships ) don't feel forced and the transitions from friends to lovers actually feel fairly real. The Link between the current and past lives is just the overwhelming good topping on an amazing cake. And finally, the World Building... This was probably my favourite, even though though I barely have any knowledge about most mythologies, I can't help but get invested into Hestia, the different classes, the Gods and how the foreshadowing of the different crisis looming over Hestia and Will. Overall, an Amazing book that's worth the coins and fast passes and an Author that clearly has passion and put his blood, sweat and tears in his work. Hope to be able to see this Story to the end. Best Luck Author, Thank You for this Amazing work of Art. :)

GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions known. Thank you.
