Pretty interesting concept and I think it'd be a fun read. The first chap, admittedly, was a little confusing and disorienting. The flow of the action was also a little off, probably due to the pacing and excessive input of details in the middle of an action scene. HOWEVER, it does get better by the 2nd chapter. This is the start of his new life and the introduction to the ACTUAL set-up of the story (which was far more interesting than the loose exposition that was the 1st chapter). Also, there seems to be a lot of world-building and kingdom-building going on here and I loveeee those tropes. An over all good read.

I don't have any issues with the quality of the writing, or even the basics of the character design. The parts I have an issue with are character development, pacing, and weirdly enough, lack of exposition (which impacts the pacing issue). There is a noticeable lack of atmospheric elements that makes the story pacing feel too fast, like you're reading a bunch of "and then" bullet points. I am at chapter 28 and it has been a year or so in the story and we have moved past the introductory arc and into a school arc. We don't really have a good description or feel for the world he is in, his past life, the kingdom he lives in, or even the city he is supposed to be in control of and the people he is supposed to rule. There are no side conversations by onlookers, street encounters, sales clerks, servants. Characters are introduced out of nowhere with a name and a single action and that's it. the MC summons characters from random places and they just come, and then become background. No real explanation or feel for why they decided to accept, or feel for the personality. It makes the introduction of new characters jarring and feel random. One other thing bugs me, it keeps mentioning the game is in Beta and already has a Beta update. Where are the players? what are the devs doing? what about his friends and past self, since he seems to have gone back in time? Also, as a useful tool but not a necessity, character/attribute screens would be a nice way to get to know the capabilities of the characters. for example the shadow carbuncle teleported that swordsman guy to a mountain out of the city, but the only named skill we have seen from it is "veil of night" which puts up a globe of darkness.

Earth's Greatest Magus

#Top 20 Webnovel Best Sellers 2021, 2022, 2023, and in 2024 #### History is said to be written by the victors. If so, how about Earth's history? Two millennia ago, a young boy named Emery met a tragic fate. In his final moments, he was transmigrated and accepted into the Universe's most prestigious school of magic. “You are among the chosen few from thousands of human worlds. Whether you seize this opportunity or not, is up to you. You are at Magus Academy, the pinnacle of humanity's ingenuity. Magic, science, and might are all within reach for those who dare to pursue them." [Scan complete - Quadruple affinity. Water, Earth, Plant, and Darkness.] "A quadruple acolyte! Only one in tens of thousands of acolytes possess this!" Thus began Emery’s journey together with his 4 friends from the furthest corner of Earth. Each year they returned to Earth to grow, seek revenge, save the princess, conquer the world, and become Earth's Greatest Magus. Their names are still etched in our history books to this day. Authors Note: I have always been fascinated by writing fantasy relating to historical facts. In this story, you will find characters inspired by real-world myth and legend. The universe I created hopefully will make the reader's imagination excited and logically plausible. I hope you enjoy it. ### Here are some key aspects you'll encounter: MC: The protagonist follows the classic weak-to-strong arc. World: Picture a blend of Harry Potter and Star Wars. System: While it's primarily a magic-based story, there's a structured system in place that's easy to follow. Additionally, elements of cultivation. Harem: No, there are several female interests. But I enjoy romance first. So even if there will be more than one love interest it will be deep. Note: English is not my first language, but you'll notice that my writing and English skills gradually improve throughout the chapters. Other: The novel delves into deep research on science and history, enriching the storyline with factual and intriguing details. Give it a read—you might be pleasantly surprised by what unfolds.

Affinity:Chaos

Check out my other book as well Lunar:Secret Guardians ******************* "Grey, elemental affinity, zero" The Elder announced the result loudly On hearing this, it was like a bolt of lightning struck Grey, he stood there dumbfounded and just stared at the Elder. Shocked voices could be heard from the people and there was some which were also filled with scorn. Grey stood dazed amidst all the noises without any reactions. One word was constantly reverberating in his head, 'How?'. 'Why, why did this happen to me?' Grey asked himself over and over again **************** Unbeknownst to Grey, something greater lies in wait in his body.... *************** Check out the book, leave a review after reading, and also your powerstones. Hope you enjoy this, and Thanks for reading ^_^ P.S: When I started this book I had zero writing experience, so the first chapters aren't that great, although, my writing quality has improved over time. Also, English isn't my first language, so there are some instances where my choice of words are not good enough for what I'm trying to portray. A heads up, the book will be using a medieval setting. My world building is not the best, but it gets better over time, so bear with me on the early chapters! P.S: Cover art not mine I just edited it. If you're the owner and want me to take it down you can notify me. Other novel: Lunar:Secret Guardians Check it out as well! Discord Server: https://discord.gg/gs68a4ZzaN
