I just found out. This is already marked as "Completed/Axed"...
Unfortunate, the last few chapters were finally showing substance again.（￣へ￣）
No hate, but I got bored. I initially made a whole essay of my review, but I erased it all.
But if I can describe it in a way... it's like driving a car 20kph in a 1000mile drive. So instead of getting to the destination within 15-20 hours, you'd probably take 3 months or so to get there.
I also checked the original novel... guess this will be finished in 4-6 years' time unless the adapters cut some plot out, but I doubt that'd happen.
Either way, I'll see myself out. Enjoy everyone.
(￣∇￣")
announcing your leave like it's an airport lmao fuck out of here
Like driving 40kph in a 100kph road type of slow...
The prologue is a good hook, though cliche.
First few chapters were great for ramping up...
95 chapters in and we're still ramping up... actually no, it's a stable 40.
Guess this will be one of the other manhwa's that'd either "Finish season something, see ya in 2 years", "Manhwa dropped, no info from artist or production company, continuation not clarified", or "We'll push through until 400 chapters" type of deal...
I don't have qualms usually with slowburns if audience hype is high. But at the same time, I've already had to deal with a lot of manhwas dropped at 100 or 150 that either got an official notice or was left in the air by the uploader. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
I'll shelve this for now I guess and probably take a peek after a year.
That chapter made me sad.
Worse part is it exists in real life, and I witnessed a couple things like this personally...
Contrary to the previous comments that are endlessly complaining its boring and whatnot (some felt like nitpicks but eh, can’t control what people wouldn’t be hyper fixated on)…
It’s not bad, subjectively. But it is average.
The plot had an interesting premise. But the execution, felt like the author focused more on the action than the plot, resulting the weird pacing. Key implications and lore drops are brushed very lightly, which is unfortunate. Aside from one incident, the stakes that were supposedly high did not feel as such. Also the complaints about the MCs choices were explained, though again, very lightly, like small-talk that you wouldn’t even notice a plothole was being explained unless its been stuck on your mind. As a whole it felt like the direction wanted it to be a action combat manhwa trying to weave a story (action first, story second).
My only complaint is why some action sequences felt like a 1990’s anime with weird long dialogues mid fight.
Overall 3.5 out of 5. Will continue reading, but will not reread again.
Does anyone know what happened to Els? The wiki mentioned in and whatnot but its either it's not written in the chapters yet or I just missed it.
I thought it's updated recently due to how it was recommended on my feed.

The pink haired villain
Her gaunt face reminded me of the ainz ool gown manga...
