With the 2000th chapter being released, I feel it's an appropriate time to review this webnovel. What can I say, the fact that this novel went on for 2000 chapters and still dominating the number rankings should speak for itself. G3 spent sometime reading webnovels, then made what I consider to be a full loveletter to the medium. Shadow slave is something I picked up on a whim, and gave little to no thought before diving into it. And it became one of my favorite stories, not just webnovels, to ever exist. The writing has style and recognizable. G3 pumps out chapters from his basement everyday, and every volume is peak after peak, and Sunny showed more personality in the first 20 chapters than most webnovels do in 200, or beyond that. Some consider Shadow slave to be bad because it doesn't play into the "Overpowered male protagonist who conquers everyone and everything" trope, and I do admit that everyone has different tastes, but that is just wrong. If it was bad, it wouldn't have reached where it is today. All in all, I would encourage any webnovel readers to read it. And thanks to G3 for providing inspiration to this site and many fledgling webnovel authors like me. Recently, I have seen many novels that try to replicate G3's writing style. Whether or not they were successful is a different story, but it is nice to see that this novel is also beloved by many.

Imbue shield with rot. The best defense is the ultimate offense.

So his flaw is to be obsessed with a world with no flaw? A flaw of striving towards perfection in a world where even the gods are tainted by their failure

Been a while since i read this but aren't snakes supposed to be wingless? Or did the apocalypse come when I wasn't looking?

Attack on titan vibes. The mc becoming a defiled anytime soon? Is rot a corrupted ability?

GLORY MENTIONED RAAAAAGH But we are friends now. So, glorious worms?

I feel like if it was the dread lord, then it would have been in its dragon form. It would have tried to enchant sunny and have him open the gates so it could escape

Sunny in a few months at the slightest inconvenience: "With this divine memory I summon the shadow realm" Who needs to form a domain of their own when you can just enlist the help of a divine one?

For a former bell, rock and a lantern with no sense of time, it makes sense

lets say sunny had 10 strength as a sleeper. With shadow augmentation, he would have 20. After getting some fragments, his base strength is now 20, but with shadow he can go up to 40. The rate at which the shadow enhances didn't increase but the amount it enhances definitely did. This is also the case with saint and fiend. Saint would have 100 strength. She is higher ranked, higher classed, and stronger physique overall. With sunnys shadow, she will be 200. It is still double, but compared to the increase of 10 or 20 Sunny gets 100 is much more
