I see it is somehow having trouble translating crystal with golden being mixed up as no one is in the golden core realm only crystal. Also if the guy that is trying escape the sects grasp meant golden core he would be powerful enough to take over not run away. Took me longer than usual to realize the translation error which I see continues a bit in other chapters so leaving this here to clear confusion.

Like this route much better than when the mc who immediately accepts the parents as their own but will never tell them they are not their kid.

Low level professions are max level between 3-5 so looks like this one maxes out at the lowest level possible. Good thing he can upgrade seamlessly.

The mc was on the ship before for a few months with zero progress on the profession level which means either very few get this perk as they are below level 1 or none have it. Since he only was able to level up his profession once the system unlocked. May either be much harder to get it without system like the people on the ship for years just to get level 1 or more talented gain it faster. Either way I assume it shows once he owns a ship he will have a way to make his crew more powerful.

Do the rifts disappear now after clearing? How is he getting a reputation in only a few days if he started going to rifts where he won’t be seen unless these rifts suddenly start closing after clears. Just feels like a jump from where we last saw him and only a few days passed.

Seems way too scared of even using his imagination on ways to use his power but okay. I mean thinking of using it on something bigger than a rat is not a big deal cause that is all that is implied from what he said anything more is a stretch. He already made it clear on his boundaries before no need to continuously repeat that he won’t become a crazy necromancer the next instant. Just my two cents as I hate when things get repeated just in different wording especially so close to when it was last mentioned.

So either the summons don’t have souls or it’s not something Grim can take at the moment.

Update at almost 500 chapters: Still noticeably repeats itself. Progress is steady yet it lacks explanation on what matters sometimes like how someone with a smaller territory than the mc can get to golden tier through the resources from the city yet the mc never seems to actually get a noticeable change from his own larger/ better resources territory(he doesn’t monopolize it but still expect some change in strength if it can supposedly support others as much as it keeps saying). Just feels like a half baked explanation on how others can get as strong as the mc. Also now it has mc with a heart demon basically which was caused by his rapid growth so he has to slow down to resolve that. Even though he wasn’t spamming his strengths to begin with on those blood sacrifices just taking it steady(maybe 4 within a year). Just parts of the story feel thrown together without much thought especially how in a middle of a fight it will have a random chapter about something else or jumps into a scene where I feel I missed a chapter.

Skip chapter 149 “On Release Reflections” It is just an authors note that at the time is asking to support the official site which isn’t WebNovel but wherever it was first released from as this is just translated and releasing here.

The story is overall a decent read but it’s held back by the author continually having the mc talk about the future where it doesn’t matter too much in the moment. I understand why the author does so as it can explain the value of things or the strength of someone but having it done every time makes it where the focus is continuously pulled away from the present gets tiring to read. For example it repeats itself situation wise with this narrative by explaining how strong someone will be in the future then the mc saying who cares how strong they will be, right now I can still kill them. It would be a way better novel without this or cut back on it but it’s still a decent read regardless. The good is the powers, world and characters are interesting enough to continue reading. The mc is consistent with the background it gave him where before he helped others but learned you can’t trust oaths or promises ect. So now he acts in whatever benefits himself not a killer hobo or a saint just whatever is best for him. Like some may dislike he kills a dog(hellhound) but keeping it would go against his background as he only got the dog for less than a few hours(to sacrifice when turned hellhound) and had no way to control it so it would be just like his past on helping others just to get backstabbed later on. Overall it’s just a apocalypse type novel where death is common place and mc just cares about growing stronger. Creates a base where he takes the passive benefits and uses it to make him stronger with less work. So far novel is just average for me but has potential to improve.
