I read the raws. MC is really foolish (he is a child, so that can be his excuse, but he is supposed to be from a noble family, and they supposedly get good training from childhood). The next things I mention all happen in the first ten chapters, so can't really be considered as spoiler. He sold all the assets of his family for loaves of bread or small amounts of pocket change. He has a good teacher who helped him in his need, but he neither consults him about his doubts nor asks for advice. He is greedy and easily led into the plans of others who want to use him (the most stupid thing is he wanted to save up food, so he bought lots of bread with his first gold coin, and then was so surprised when the bread got spoiled after a few days. I mean, what do you expect- it's a perishable food- buy rice instead, or wheat, or corn- even foolishness should have its limits).

Mage....Seems like western fantasy..I'm voting................Now need to add 140 character ..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ok.

Reveal spoiler

The synopsis is something that a 7th grader would come up with. "In turn this led to" my ass. Seriously, the sypnosis is incredibly vague and lacking in substance. Frankly put, it is quite appalling for it's lack of charisma and word choice. If the translation or base material is at this level, then I don't hold much hope for this novel at all.

It looks like Stargate I UP VOTE !!!! I miss you Stargate Universe, i hope a fan while help make a sequel... Sad we miss the 3rd saison, but perhaps they are all dead and this is the end.

I don't even know where I start with the numerous problems this novel has. Firstly if the MC happened to step on a cockroach the next 5 chapters would be about the cockroach's illustrious family line the has connections to royalty and super duper grand mages and how they and the whole continent are now hunting the MC. This situation repeats it self 2 or 3 times in the first 40 chapters. Next would be the MC's iq as it starts at decent level and every chapter it drops a little. Now 40 chapters later the MC can barely form coherent thoughts, he just stumbles and plot armors his way through the story. With one girl even more lacking in iq than the MC blindly following for no reason at all and another girl that is plot armor in character form. I could literary write an essay on this novels shortcomings and not even list all that appear in the first 40 chapters. I am sincerely in awe by the people managing to reach this far into the story without asking a salary to read this "novel". If I could I would rate the story lower but I wouldn't be honest as the stability of updates and translation quality manage to add another star to this horrid story.

Damn, I vote hard for this. There novels about western-fashioned magic systems are so few... And I like them most) Also would be great if MC was similar to Leylin in logic(not some philanthropic hypocrite) and his search for the truth of the world)))

MC and his companions decide to set out to Alchemy City to go and meet the MC's master. You would think that once they get to the city they would be able to find him. NOPE!!! It is a 75+ chapter filler until they finally find him. WTF!!!!!!!!!! Why even state that their main goal is to find his master at the city if it is going to take over 75 chapters to finally find him? The author makes you sit there wondering for over 75 chapters when he is going to finally be able to meet his master once more. The entire time I'm just half a$$ reading this to get past these fillers to find out that it is going to take another 50 chapters, from where I have read up to, to finally meet up with this master once more. I don't even care what is happening in these chapters because the author got my hopes up that he was going to meet his master and start onto the next section of the story plot. This kind of completely detracts from the story when an author gets your hopes up like this and then puts 75+ chapters of filler in.

Here is a recipe I encountered last week, it was delicious. 3 cups chicken or San bei ji (i think 🙇) Ingredients 1 kilo of chicken (you can use drumets or the legs and wings or white meat whichever you prefer) 1cup Chinese cooking wine 1 cup light soy sauce 1tbsp dark soy sauce (optional its just for color) 1 cup sesame oil 25 cloves of garlic (minced) 2 cups of Thai basil 2 green chili pepper or dried chili pepper( optional if you want it to be spicy) 10 thin slices of ginger 1 cup of scallions( optional) 3 tbsp sugar Equipment Spatula Wok or whatever you deep bottomed pan you have that will fit everything and has a lid or can be covered Instructions 1. In a bowl mix your soy sauce, and sugar 2. Heat the sesame oil in the wok, be careful because sesame oil has low heat tolerance, once you hear the oil bubble throw in your garlic chili peppers and ginger then stir. Once the oil becomes aromatic put in your chicken and stir until the chicken turns white. 3. Once the chicken turns white put in the soy sauce sugar and wine mixture into the wok. Then let simmer on low heat without a lid for 30 or 40 minutes or until the sauce thickens and has a syrupy consistency. 4. Once the sauce thickens, bring the heat up to high and throw in the scallions and basil leaves, stir then cover for 2 to 3 minutes to infuse the scent of basil and the scallions into the dish. Then serve!!! This is best served with rice and boiled eggs! Enjoy!!
