About this ebook

However, the night before his hopeless bout, a mysterious hermit grants Allen a button that will give him one hundred million years to train in an alternate reality when pressed. Allen not only gladly accepts the offer but also goes back for seconds, thirds, tenths even! With over a billion years of straight practice under his belt, the world is about to see what the “Reject Swordsman” can really do!

Ratings and reviews

Billion years of practicing isn't enough to make this swordsman interesting! Cliché lines that lead to stereotypical characters that just don't grow much. I don't know what's worse the good guys or the bad guys. The way that the author treats peeping as a worse crime than attempted murder is criminal in of itself! So many things wrong with this first book it is hard to enjoy any story elements.

not gonna lie. kinda disappointed that he spent 1.5 billion years training just so he can get absolute clapped at the tournament againts his SECOND opponent. I read a manga called "stuck in a day for one THOUSAND year" and he was absolute rizzed up, pogged champ, alpha, giga Chad. All I could say that in this book , the guy absolutely wasted 1.5 billion years..

It feels like a really bad story from start to finish. Allen is an extremely bland protagonist, a very "fill in the blank" character. He spends roughly 1.5 billion years training or something, to end up just slightly better than high school girls and your typical high school villain who have trained for roughly 10 years. Without spoiling too much, he does have an OP mode that appears with little inclination to where it came from or what it even is, so enjoy that when you get to that part. I remember a particular point in the book, where he just finished his 1.5 billion years of training, comes out and basically states "oh wow it must have been a dream". I don't know man, it's one thing to dream up a couple days, that's normal. But 1.5b years? And you have vivid conscious memories? Get real. Overall I don't think this series is worth spending almost 10usd per book, maybe 3 or 4 tops. It's just not that well written and the story is lacking developement.
