Description

Kagami Jin was always bullied in school.

He was bullied nonstop for 2 whole years.

"I WILL KILL THEM!" Jin resolved in his mind.

Then, during the moment where Jin was being bullied in the classroom, a magic circle appeared and transported everyone inside!

Upon opening his eyes, Jin and his classmates found themselves being summoned as heroes in another world!

However, upon opening his status, Jin saw that his occupation was a "World Traveler", and it turns out it was one of the weakest class! How can Kagami Jin achieve his revenge now?

From now on, I will update every Wednesday and Saturday.

I will also try updating everyday when I'm not busy, but it's best if you take it with a grain of salt.

This is an early review, as the story is only 4 chapters in at this point, but the foundations for the plot are already largely set.
It's an isekai/reincarnation story with a twist - the mc is first portalled in as is, along with other people. Only after does he's already arrived in a new world does he die and get reincarnated.
The style very much leans into the cultivation tropes, which is great, as that is exactly what fans of cultivation stories are looking for/expecting.
I was a little hesitant to begin with, as the synopsis and first chapter has the mc loudly declaring his wish to murder his bullies. He doesn't hesitate to want them to actually die. However, again, this is a cultivation story, and let's be honest, cultivators tend to kill people just for not sure 100% proper respect. It completely fits the fantasy fiction. Moreover, when the mc does die, even his bullies hesitate and seem shocked that he's about to be killed.
The grammer is ok, and fits very well with the cultivation theme. Take this next comment with a grain of salt, as it could easily be corrected and no longer be true, but I did notice a couple of spelling mistakes - and they are typo's, such as 'suddem' instead of 'sudden'.
There hasn't been a lot of character development yet, as there's only 4 chapters so far, but motivations and personalities are already clear. The characters also seem to have had personalities fitting cultivators even before being isekai'd. Maybe that's part of why they were chosen?
Either way, I'm looking forward to seeing where this story goes. I may also update this as it develops.

Just a small warning that there are some mild spoilers ahead! I've currently read to Chapter 9 which is the furthest available chapter.
First off we have story, and this is the strongest suit, as we dive into an isekai where our protagonist Jin, a young man badly bullied in the real world, is pulled into a fantasy universe where he has the lackluster "World Traveller" class. Shortly thereafter, he finds himself dead, and is once again reborn as a new, seemingly immortal entity on a separate plane, and thus he begins his quest for revenge against those who wronged him in both prior worlds.
It's a fun premise that puts an interesting twist on classic isekai, and it's clear the author put a lot of thought into the worldbuilding. We also do get some story from the perspective of one of Jin's few friends stuck in the first fantasy world after his death, so it will be interesting to see how all the plotlines ultimately coalesce together.
Moving to characters, I think they are currently somewhat underdeveloped. The only character we have a decent grasp of is Jin, though there has been a little bit of character development for his friend Asuka as well. The character's motivations generally seem unsubtle. Jin wants revenge because everybody was horrible to him. Asuka wants revenge for Jin's untimely demise, and that appears to be the current gist of the story. Quite a bit of the supporting cast, whether the bullies, princess or Jin's new "relatives" in his reincarnation come across as two-dimensional, with little more than one or two surface-level traits. Given the multi-POV nature of the story, it wouldn't surprise me if this was improved on as the tale progresses, but at this stage, it is definitely one of the weaker links of the overall narrative.
Moving on to grammar, this story definitely could use a bit of proofreading, there were quite a few typos, and some awkward sentence structure at times. Even running through a spellcheck would probably help a little bit in my op
