When i first read this book, i had not read the Author's Pov. But now that i did skim through it a little, i can say that the first (40 chapters or more ?) are HEAVILY inspired of it.Only the Mc is different .But as more and more chapters pass , one can see for himself/herself that the story has its own path. I've already reviewed the book once. However now that I'm more experienced my mind has changed on quite a few points. Let's start with the pros : -The Mc is so fun ! Nathan, unlike Ren Dover, doesn't care so much about sticking to the original noveľs plot, which is a plus.Also , he is smart,has a mysterious back story, and is quite deranged . - The side characters are well done. - The plot is intriguing and promising. Every fight is epic , well depicted and well explained . - The Mc isn't OP but his wits and perseverance are just amazing. - The pace is nor quick nor slow . Then, the cons : - The updates are a too inconstant . It's been three months already that the book hasn't been updated and this is so disappointing. Sure the author has a life aside from writing. But everyone does. Yet here we are all to read and/or write. So i don't buy this excuse. Plus , the author has done the same with his other book so i'm really unhappy.(This inconsistency in the updates is in fact the main reason for my low rating.) - The inspiration of the Author's Pov is really strong in the first chapters. Honestly, i can now understand why some people stopped so early in their tracks . Still, it didn't last long(by the way , it's really relative) so i won't hold it against this book too much. Ah, there's still another flaw!The author's forcing is too evident when it comes to situations where he wants Mc to help the original book's Mc.And this excuse of " This character helped me face my depression" seems a bit too shabby. Apart from these points, i don't really have any complaints about this book. So what to say in the end ? It's a good book but Author's huge inspiration of the Author's Pov, the Mc's unconvicing reason for helping the original book's Mc, and the INCONSISTENT UPDATES convinced me to drop it.

I don't like being the bringer of bad news, but the inconsistent updates are because ryukurou stopped with writing altogether. You can check his discord for where the story would've gone. I do agree with your criticisms though, in particular the Mc's unconvincing reasoning for helping the OG Mc, but I think that mainly stems from the fact that the story as a whole was a bit convoluted (once again, you can check his discord for an outline of the whole thing in general chat, just read from the pinned message). In general, most of it does make sense in the full picture though.

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 be known. Thank you.
