If you told me the main character was based on Vergil from Devil May Cry, I'd absolutely believe you. Now, onto the review. Also, spoilers. KInd of. Alright, let me get this out of the way. White hair, wears a trench coat, has a katana, blue eyes. I don't know why, but it just screams Vergil. Heck, he even has a move that reminds me of Judgment Cut. Okay, enough rambling. Do I recommend this novel? I do. Despite the synopsis that clearly feels like it's just listing the tags of the novel with extra steps, so far it's done exactly that. MC is pretty overpowered for his peers. Unbelievably so. Although the beginning of the story might turn some readers off at how edgy he felt, don't worry it loses that cringe edginess rather quickly. And thank goodness it did that. I think the one thing a reader needs to know when reading this is to have an open mind. If you're the type to be overly sensitive when a female gets hit, even if she deserves it you'll probably be turned off very quickly to this novel. If the violence bothered you then you really shouldn't be reading fantasy novels. Atticus our MC is one of those Eye for Eye, Tooth for Tooth kind of individuals. Mess with him and he'll mess with you back, just with more ferocity. I feel I could make this review way longer but I'll just get to the End. Maybe one day when this gets published on Amazon I'll leave a full review but Yes overall I recommend the novel. Yes there's no harem Despite feeling like it could have happened if the Author wanted it too. Overall Score: 8.9/10 Personal Score 9.6/10

Is it the type of novel where the mc is overly protective, and will slaughter a whole family just because of the action of one man..?

As for as I have read, no. He had only taken action on the person responsible.

Thanks for the review. Just one question tho, does the MC have multiple unrequited love interests who can't be with him because he's already taken, even though they're key to the plot?

BalsamicThunThighsLv15

So it's never really specified if there's anyone unrequited love interests. There is one girl and it seems to be going for that one single girl. You might notice two or three possible girls who could be interested in him but it never explicitly states if they are interested in him that way. One is more like a foolish tsundere enemy and the other two are more like family.

One of the tags says he is a mom con so will he have like 2 or 3 waifus since he has a mother sister and that Zoey girl ?

BalsamicThunThighsLv15

I'll just tell you now the Mom is one of those doting mother types. MC barely has any interactions with her and I wouldn't say he is a mom con. The MC is so focused on getting stronger that it overshadows her little screentime. Right now it seems like it's just Zoey. Also there should've been a No Harem tag here lol

Ah the Synopsis has the No Harem mention. Not sure why he didn't add that as the tag. Maybe he thought it'd push some readers away? idk.

If you're looking for a MC with an overpowered protagonist, then this novel would be in a top 10. I'd say this one was probably one of the best in terms of how active it is and how webnovel standards go on this novel. If I had to list a downside for this novel Romance isn't very great, the beginning is a bit edgy and there's extremely little to non exististent comedy here.

Honest reviews are here.. [Extreme Spoiler Alert] This novel is about MC, who reincarnated into a young master of one of the most powerful families (tier 1 clan) with a cheat system.. The world MC reincarnated is in intense wars against intruder (alien) from others world.. The native have got no choice but to make an alliance with every race existent in that world to resisting outsiders' force.. But they are slowly closing into losing against foreign aliens.. MC is born with a system (system not as useful as you imagine) where his talent is monstrous, and his blood is quite strong.. MC awakened quite early (1 years old), where other genius awakened at 7 years old.. MC appears to have 6 years of head start compared to other people, but it has been a waste by his overprotective mother.. His mother has been forbidden him to train, but finally, he got a blessing and permission of his mother at 5 years old.. MC is OP, unrivalled, and untouchable in his age, peer, and his generation.. MC growth is at a steady pace, not too fast and not too slow.. The power rank in this novel starts from novice (lowest)< intermediate< advance< expert< master< grandmaster< paragon (strongest so far).. Each rank has 3 minor stages such as novice-, novice, and novice+.. The storyline is quite interesting, but of course, it depends on our own preference for the type of novel you like.. This novel author is a really good at expression using words for "emotion, situation, and expression".. You would see the author wrote 4-5 paragraphs about his novel character "waking up." 4-5 paragraphs expression of his novel characters emotion.. Or sometimes, there is a whole chapter that expresses his novel characters "thinking".. You can imagine the situation of this novel in detail by just reading it.. Of course, some people might hate this long explanation and see it as lingering, stalling, and thinking that it is a waste of time.. MC is also quite merciless against his enemy.. Most of the time, he just beat them, that's it UNTIL he joined Academy where even if he kill other student, they will keep revive again and again with no limit.. And even though MC is unrivalled in his age, he is not fighting against his age only.. At 15 years old, EVERYONE has to join the academy of the human race regarding their status noble or commoner, no exception, EVERYONE need to attend the academy.. As 1st year student, MC is at expert rank while people at 3rd years student, the top genius are at expert- rank which 1 minor stage differences.. It kinda disappointing that MC, who awakened at the age of 1 year, only ahead of others with just one minor stage.. It such a waste that he got awakened 6 years ahead of others but not utilises and use them sufficiently.. It is annoying that every MC action is been monitored closely where all his secrets have been revealed.. Plus, there are many scheming against MC from behind, and MC has been played by his enemy plan.. His enemy is laughing and enjoying the show.. Currently, there are 593 chapters (for non-privilege), and I already read up to 519 chapters.. MC lost around 2.7 million academy points, which was a ridiculous high amount due to his enemy scheme.. MC already makes so many powerful families as enemies, and if we include that schemer one, there will add more and more powerful families as enemies that are as strong as MC family right now.. Romance? Yup, there is flirting but no excessive or adult scene or anything, so don't worry.. Readers might misunderstand because there is NTR in ch2, but Ch1 and Ch2 are the story about MC 1st life or before reincarnated.. I'm not sure if the author will put it later on.. System? It's not too useful.. Only show MC status window.. No mission or quest or buy/sell.. No storage space.. The most hate Arc in the novel? The Leader Summit Arc (Ch441 - Ch509).. It is where all top 100 ranker (1st year until 3 year student) in the school are competing.. And this is the worst arc you ever read in this novel.. MC has been nerf sooo bad to the point you who love this novel become soooo frustrated and hate the story progress further.. Don't believe? You could see how many people complain about it, even the author has to give a "statement" or "author note" to clear out about this.. How MC been nerf? MC is Expert+ at this arc while others' 3rd year top ranker is just at Expert- and Expert, which means that despite MC just a 1st year student, he already becomes the highest rank among all student.. So, the school decided to make all student reduce to intermediate+ because to make it "fair" for others student and also to not humiliated others 2nd year and 3rd year student (Including 2nd and 3rd teacher).. So, going back to the question: How much is MC being nerf?? MC has been seal to use ANY of his techniques (link to his mana), he can't use ANY of this element (fire, wind, water, earth, light, dark, space, ice, lightning, gravity), his bloodline, his Mana core, his weapon and anything related to those.. To unseal it, he has to do some mission to gain point, and after reaching a certain value, then he can buy them using point.. As he is stronger than others, he needs to pay more and more to reach his original power rank.. and that is for one thing.. Don't forget MC has so many elements and to unseal his element, all his elements have a price to unseal it.. For example: Mana core: 4000 SP Note: Gain access to your current restricted rank ■Bloodline: Fire; 1100 SP Space; 1100 SP Earth; 1000 SP Water; 990 SP Air; 990 SP Light; 800 SP Darkness; 800 SP Lightning; 790 SP Ice; 670 SP Note: limited to your current restricted rank ■Weapons: Katana: 4000 SP Exo suit: 5000 SP ■Ranks: 3000SP to each rank up Other people only have like one or two elements while MC has so many.. Their power rank also not as high as MC.. We love to see the MC grow stronger, not grow weaker.. It is like watch One Piece, and Luffy who can use multiple type of haki, his Devil fruit, his techniques (gomu gomu no pistol, Axe and so on) and skills (Gear 2, 3, 4, 5), then suddenly, Oda (Author of One Piece) make Luffy lose those while he has to fight many people on New World.. Yes, it is going to be a frustration experience for the fans.. If you don't understand One Piece terminology, then imagine like this.. You go to the airport to travel to a foreign country and at security check, you have to take off all your clothes, pants, shoes and bags, while hand over your wallets, phones, laptops and so on.. Then, to get everything back, you NEED to pay for ALL your item.. Your wallet, 500 bucks.. Your phones are more expensive than other people, so iPhone 15 Pro, 1,000 bucks.. In your bag, there are 15 items, and you need to pay each item for 100 bucks.. Will you like this? All these are yours to begin with, but you need to pay it "again".. Most readers are annoying with the author ways to nerfing MC.. We all can't understand the reason.. I even stopped reading at Ch519.. Well, the last Arc is very frustrating and dampening the mood.. But I still will read it in the future.. Just not now.. I don't feel like reading it right now.. So, please going on ur good work Author.. Note: I wish the author would boost his rank (jumping rank) and his elemental bloodline with some kind of misfortune turning into "opportunity." It is sure will be thrilling and electrifying..

Armipotent

This is a work of fiction, any names, characters, stories or events, are fictitious! (Even the country in the story is just the author's fantasy as the author never visited those countries in the story) Armipotent is an archaic adjective meaning "strong in battle." Basically, it refers to someone who is physically tough in war. Originally, it was used to refer to the Roman god of war, Mars. ===================== Tang Shaoyang, an orphan who dropped out of the middle school to fight on the street as he found out school was useless for a penniless orphan like him. Tang Shaoyang dropped out of his school, fighting on the street, and made a name for himself. Berserker Tang from Youyouliucun. Afterward, Dragon Wing triad recruited him and everything was good for him. Even though the public deemed him as a tumor of society, Tang Shaoyang was having a decent life. Until one day, everything changed as an absurd and strange game started. "... Game starts! Stage one: Survival for The Fittest!" After the game started, zombies appeared out of nowhere. ... Ding! "You have killed 1000 zombies less than 24 hours since the game started! You gained 3 Talents!" Dong! "You may choose 3 Talents! please choose carefully!" Tang Shaoyang held his chin and mused what Talent he had to choose. "With Zombies appear everywhere, I need an infinite strength... this is one, I still need to choose 2 Talents more..." Then a lewd smile formed on his lips. "I want an infinite strength, charm and charisma to conquer women, and the last one, I want to upgrade my **** so I can please my women!" After saying this, Tang Shaoyang laughed aloud. "Hahaha, there's no way such talent exists... ehhhhh?!!!" Ding! Dong! "3 Talents are consumed! You have been granted Divine Body! Good Luck, Gamer Tang Shaoyang!" Tang Shaoyang immediately checked the detail of Divine Body. After a brief silence, he muttered unbelievably. "Such Talents really exist..."

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.
