An all-round good novel however the pacing and power levels are terrible in my opinion. The author writes scenes well, with interesting descriptions, but they just go on for way too long. His journey to start his training literally takes nearly 100 chapters, and he only uses a crossbow and hope as his weapon before that, mostly after aswell. The system is honestly a curse rather than a blessing, since he can't really grow his stats organically past a normal human, and to put the stats into perspective, normal human is 5, he is 10 after becoming a witcher, normal/most witchers are mid 20s/30s. This is a problem because he gets 1 stat point per level up, and past level 4, it would take about 150 drowners/10 leshen to level up once, which doesn't happen much with the pacing, and only gets worse. At chapter 300 he is still only about level 7/8, which is just kinda ridiculous. To make it clear, I think slow pacing can be okay, but to pull that off, the author would've had to start the story about 20/30 years earlier, to make the power system work, however the MC is only 5 or so years older than Ciri, which really highlights my issues with the power system. In conclusion I think the author has some good ideas, and writes well, but some of his idea's clash in this novel, ruining an otherwise fulfilling novel. Thanks for reading

Well Chinese novels are made to last, going past 1000 chapters is the norm for them. If the protagonist got too strong then there will be no conflict to write about unless they made new enemies😂

Well technically chinese novels pull off 1000,2000,3000 or even more chapters is that almost every time they follow the script "beat the young ones come the old, kill the old ones come the angry ancestors from the heavens...yada yada" there will always be some extremly old/powerful/influential and most of all ridiculously stupid character to go after the Mc no matter how strong or op becomes. but here where the story mostly won't go past a character that would at most be able to shatter a few small villiages slow pacing is just torture
