Ratings and reviews

I read the translated online version of this, which I believe was basically ripped one for one to the official light novel version. Probably a different translation, but the same source material. It felt like it started pretty stock standard, no new ground really being broken, but it was a well written rendition of what it was trying to do. And then the real story started to kick in. Absolutely phenomenal, worth a read if you're into power fantasy stories. But if you don't care for stories like that, this won't be for you.

Really well put together. Flows well. Doesn't go into unnecessary detail about small things for filler. The story is gripping, and thankfully, no weird tropes. All in all, out of 10, I give it a 9.2. Pass

One of the best light novel ever. It tells you what is going on every time the mc levels up or gets a new skill. It is super fun to read and you will get sucked into it.
