This one started out well, with an honestly awesome concept, and failed to maintain any consistent momentum. The pacing is wack with rewards that make no sense and power scalling that by the authors own rules doesn't add up. In one chapter, we are told that the 'throne' level is a shift in quality of existence and that below that level, they can kill you with a literal thought. less than 10 chapters later the mc is explained to have defeated a 'throne' offscreen whilst 5+ levels below that stage, and is rewarded out of nowhere with a weapon on par with the 'dominator' rank... the one above 'thrones'. or, in other words, at Level 5, he offscreen beat a level 1000 and was given a sword that one shots every boss, and this is glossed over like it makes 100% sense. in the same ark we are told that logan, the mc, has to choose one thousand of his troops to send to battle in a foreign plain and he is struggling with sending his best but being short of those warriors if he needs them, or sending a mix of warriors and weaklings in order to train the weak into competent people, but risk loosing some of them in the process. less than 10 chapters later, this is thrown out, and logan descends onto the field with 'hundreds of thousands of troops' without ever stating how he managed to take more troops, as 1 entry slot allows 1000 troops maximum. other times, supposedly clueless enemies who don't even know the mc existed, suddenly know everything about him after seeing him for the first time also, 99% of all characters are addressed as 'it' so you get times of, 'it said to it, that its followers would help it, if only it would help it to complete its plans' These and many more irregularities combined with the author seemingly having unending personal issues and constantly begging viewers in the notes for funds make for an all-around unpleasant reading experience in what could have been an epic tale about recovering what's taken from you and growing despite the odds stacked against you.
