  3. Comments/Rant/Review as of CH 320. Honestly I do enjoy it more than the author's other work, Glorious summoner. At the same time the stories are vastly different in terms of MC personalities and this one has more action coming from the MC. The biggest downsides are the horny MC and slight sexism/nationalism, but the most recent chapters went all out on the negatives. MC tried to essentially rape a girl he did get punished for it by his cheat but still wtf. That entire segment was just crazy and his reasoning for it was rapey and worst of all he did not regret his actions. For a little clarification he knew her for 1 day before he tried doing it. Previously MC had a whole little moment about not wanting sex from a girl that was sad and even held back, to summarize author got horny and made a terrible plot development. ***Post reading, he should have done it she turned into such a terrible character that blocks the way for certain reasons till the very end*** Another thing I hate is how MC used his cheats name as a trademark, like if there is someone behind the scenes (destiny/prophecy/god/etc..) you just gave any potential enemies a big sign saying here I am with this cheat. He also tops it off by not caring about how much money he makes from his product with a mark, if I am understanding it right MC gets 4g no matter how high the price is some are reaching 10g and this is before it is widely spread/popular. It is not a contract limitation simply MC wanting to spread his benefits, which was shown previously so I should not be surprised by it. ***Post reading, money is hardly used and useless but still a common thing to mention***

  4. Comments/Rant/Review as of CH 873. MC has got 2 power up growth spurts and a nerf following immediately after. As with most novels MC's cheat goes away into the background and is never really used all too much. MC lost his source of strength in one of those and the other was adding limits to his cheat which made sense sort of. The racism/nationalism and sexism is still prevalent, some of which are ambiguous , literally just said "compared to Hua people those...on the other continents are just barbarians." The reason I mention sexism as well is because the author always brings up how surprised he is to see a women knight or in a high position, I would not take myself anywhere near a feminist but wtf. We have not seen MC get new stuff or power ups in a while even though he should be making some meritorious deeds, the poison part or saving people. Also I do not know if it was a translation issue or the site skipped text or the author hiding things again for suspense, but we have not even been told what MC's rare profession is(telekinesis and more spiritual power?). The bloodline fruit has terrible conditions to make, and the plunder fruit is so rare. The plunder part is a mixed bag as sometimes a MC that masters everything makes the side characters useless, but MC here only knows combat and wants to be one of the hardest professions. The harem size is actually pretty large if you ignore the minor characters that are mentioned twice(concubines if anything), otherwise the main girls number around 11, I still miss Pandora. It is weird to say this but the arc around the r*pe part was probably one of the better ones for MC's power growth.

  5. Comments/Rant/Review as of CH 1268. Feel like the MC likes to mention how reminiscent or emotional he is often, especially in public, random friends of his say they know how he acts easily so imagine his enemies. This could be purely me misremembering but didn't Donder say don't expect the enemy to be as kind as you, like there are many instances where MC says they are going too far or surprised. A strange thing is how the Author/MC treat slavery both literal and defacto and how it is downplayed or romanticized. Like how the country is actually saving them in a way and how they should be thankful. In one case MC was talking about how relationships between Teacher and student should be pure as that was the lesson he learned from Mrs.D, like no bro wtf is that you should step up your game instead. And like 2-3 chapters later dude recieves a batch of 2000 brainwashed slaves, now I know this is not related but still moral/ethical alignment is varied and not really in one spot overall. Mrs.D is also the most mentioned character that really never is shown, and her influence on MC, dudes master has the same screen time as her and is mentioned maybe 4-5 times. Then MC obviously likes cougars or has a preference for them but did not want to hook up with another knight due to her age, cultivation novel deal where age really does not matter as lifespans are insane. Also there was a slight section where God was mentioned for every little good thing, could be translation changes, like shouldn't it be karma you know his whole thing.  This might sound weird but the world is lacking in variety, there are only common animals and beasts golden boa is still talked about over 1000 chapters later. People's techniques do not have any special things about them besides sects but even then we are never shown it. MC's metaphor and analogies suck as they are so long for no reason and just repeat what was previously said just differently, typically for business or science. 

  6. Comments/Rant/Review as of CH 1400. So this holy war arc has finally come out fully, and it sucks as expected. Ultimately it is not that different from the MC's previous wars just that they are winning this one, human wave tactics. Still do not know how MC spent 60yrs in a time pyramid to just not rank up, he developed his foraging skills instead. It might play a big part in the war considering how he had a need for it beforehand and the pyramid showed up, forget the term but basically MC got what he needed just after he was talking about it. Also related how df does divination work on this guy, like his own cheat can't even block it nor his cheats work on powerhouses but a random old guy can get details about MC. Also don't know why MC keeps joining the war as a soldier, dude can not lead troops properly he is a one man army and always talks about the value of freedom. I was sort of glad that MC saw that lady and her kid get murdered, not to sound edgy or anything but there is a severe lack of I would say realism/despair when it comes to war in this. I was hoping MC would mature a little from this encounter, his growth in the novel is lacking. He is still hot blooded and horny just not as much and often, he does not go full ape all the time anymore so he now has a tolerance limit/patience, sort of. IDK man MC is literally a muscle brain getting carried by his cheat in every way possible, besides the normal endurance/grind that MCs do. I know all of the above sounds terrible and I am just hating, but I do actually like the novel more than his other work. I just hate the vibes/MC. MC making the bet to not use prisoners as tools of war is wack, like wow this little guy can decide a rule for billions of people to follow. Also in that fight we found yet another weapon(3rd or 4th) that could isolate MC from the castle, like are space locks this common? Glad MC finally got betrayed like I hated the dude who did as well. He was always portrayed as scheming and mysterious, also how MC was always doing something for them. Hopefully MC grows from this and leaves that group as they honestly offered like below bare minimum and that was just due to their face.

  7. "Since dragon was the totem of the Chinese clan, with dragon as the national symbol, of course the Norman Empire could obtain Zhang Tie's consent". A thousand years later and they are still licking ccp's ass. It's not even china who invaded his home, as long as anything resembling china shows up the mc would lick.
