You are the author, you can say it was divine intervention and it would be canon. To a new reader like me, all I see is an author who purposely fks over their Mc by putting them in unreasonable situations and an Mc that fails to live up to expectations. You can say it gets explained later, but which author doesn't say that? I would believe you if there were adequate foreshadowing but all I got was that he would regret his decisions in the future. Also, my problem wasn't that there is a paywall but where it is placed. I believe it unfavorable for the story to introduce its paywall when this is the impression a reader would have at this point of the story. Without that elusive future context, the scenario is just too forced and frustrating. Last thing, the tags 'overpowered', 'fast paced', and the 'strong to stronger' statement that I started reading this for have not fit this novel at all so far.
Chapter 25 made me lose any enthusiasm to continue reading. It just felt so contrived how everything was against him killing Shiden and gaining a powerful ability. From numerous random circumstances to Shiden's apparent immunity to his mind powers and the foreshadowing of his great mistake by leaving them alive made for an incredibly frustrating and demoralizing read. Instead of feeling realistic, it felt unrealistically against the MC. His momentum was killed, he was unable to obtain a skill that was actually interesting, and now we have to watch as those hunters he could have killed otherwise become stronger than him. Talk about demoralizing, and then you have to pay for chapters. And the story and power system are very uninteresting.
She still cheated and took advantage of him in this life.
Overall, it is very boring, it became a chore to read with the long and drawn out internal monologues and lengthy explanations. The power scaling is a mess, the character interactions and the characters themselves are plain and uninteresting, and the pace is incredibly slow. A slow pace is not necessarily a problem if it weren't accompanied by some major pitfalls. Firstly, the development of the characters' relationships are poorly conveyed and the general dialogue format is very shallow and unpolished. Dialogues between the Mc and other characters always come off as aimless and very impersonal, always maintaining the level of casual banter or small talk one would have with an acquaintance. This is highlighted by a striking lack of detail and emphasis given to non-vocal character communications, something I attribute to the story's strange narration style, as body language and facial expressions aren't explored above a primitive application. Secondly, relationships are developed at an extremely slow pace as well. As a result, everything aside from the occasional fights feels very mundane, aimless, and passive. I personally find this very boring, I cannot stand a slow paced story with so little character development, especially when everything aside from that is the Mc doing chores, ceaseless internal monologues, and the author's constant fights with his power scaling. The power scaling is sloppy, the Mc kills an armored level 3 berserk floor boss at lvl 0 and then loses to a lvl 3 human at lvl 2. Onto the main character's character, I find it extremely disappointing. I will keep it short, but he certified that he would win the war game with 100% certainty just to get beaten by a lvl 3. If the lvl 3 hadn't forfeited without fighting for some god forsaken reason like he did, then not only Hestia, but he himself would have become a sx slave due to his unrestrained arrogance, All self inflicted as he himself provoked the situation. Nuff yap bye.
When it's either that or your death how much choice do you really have?
The main character is annoying, the author constantly makes him make stupid decisions for the sake of having character development later on. That in itself ruins the character development, it is carried out in an unnatural fashion and comes across as very rushed. I liked the 18 scenes, their only downside being that they are overly verbose. The writing quality is decent. Overall, it was a good read until chapter 40. In chapter 40 the main character flirts and s3xually excites a woman to the brink and sends a guy over to her after leaving her frustrated, then gets a semi chub as he watches the guy kiss and take her home. Pathetic behavior and an ntr flag.
The story's antagonists are extremely annoying and all have the personality of a Karen, unreasonable, self centered, and judgemental. They stick around too, getting more screen time than the main heroines. It's so unpleasant having multiple verbose chapters in a row centered around characters I actively dislike and don't care for. In addition, there is a disturbing amount of emphasis and detail on his cheating ex's s_xual and romantic life, it's story relevant but God is it unpleasant. On to writing, I dislike how exaggerated every emotion is made out to be, small things are given great emphasis despite how unimportant they are. This dampens any excitement when something actually important happens as they are given the same level of emphasis. Lastly, the story is very lacking in romance for a harem. Outside of romance specific episodes the mc and heroines behave as just friends, even when they have already consummated their relationship. It heavily undermines their feelings when they act like nothing ever happened and it's strange that their behavior doesn't change.c386 ✌️
I don't like how Eugene has a sexual/romantic relationship with a female lead only to retain the just-friends dynamic. These developments feel fake with how inconsequential they are, they don't have any effect on how they behave or treat each other. All of his relationships just feel very casual and unimportant to him, including Lethe. Regardless of whether it's intentional or not, it is a waste of character development. You've developed Irina's character and her relationship with Eugene just to reach the most unsatisfying conclusion, there being no change in there at all. This has happened not just to Irina, but to every other female lead except Maria who hasn't had the screen time for it to occur. Eugene, despite his drive being one of his most pronounced assets lacks exactly that when it comes to interpersonal relations. For example when he and Lily kissed; Did he want to kiss her? We don't know. Did he kiss her when the opportunity presented itself? Yes. Despite his willingness to kiss, does he ever initiate one? No. Eugene takes every opportunity to have romantic/sexual contact with those around him when presented yet never seems to have the drive to initiate it. He takes what he gets and doesn't try for anything beyond that, this behavior greatly contradicts how his character has been described throughout the novel. Also, has this kiss with Lily changed anything at all? No, they all go along with their day like nothing. This "cool" and "nonchalant" character they are all putting on is not how normal likable people behave, they just come off as uncaring and banal. They behave like middle-school Redditors who think they are cool and mysterious for acting like they are above what others would usually care about, "Yeah we kissed, it's no big deal really". Another thing is that the bantering friends with clever comebacks every other line dynamic is extremely overused. He has this same dynamic with Nao, Lethe, Irina, and sometimes Dawn. Not only that almost every female lead (side characters too) needs to have a strong character and some extreme characteristic on the level of Eugenes in order to even be relevant, they all match his energy perfectly. The problem is that they just look like copies of one another because of that; Lethe is crazy, Maria is crazy, Nao is crazy, and Irina is crazy. If it weren't for their different backgrounds they all would be the same person, in other words, they are very unoriginal. I understand you are doing this to make it so that they don't get outdone by other characters but they are just a dime in a dozen now, an unremarkable female lead without a strong character that openly shows her care and affection and can be vulnerable around him would easily outshine all these mary sues. The last thing is don't focus on one aspect of their character so much. It feels like you took one character trait and made it their whole character, they just feel one-dimensional. Like Lily and her dirty jokes, that's all she does now. No character shows weakness, is relatable, behaves normally, or has any personality outside of their "strong" and "quirky" one. They are all Mary sues, which makes them very hard to like or care about.
