Description

Arc Book 1 onKindle Unlimited

Through hellish training, Arc became a hero — reaching the pinnacle of strength in the world of Arlas.

Arc was an ordinary young woman from Earth when she was summoned to an icy hell where she fought for her survival in the name of training to become a hero.

Now, after defeating the Overlord itself and achieving the status of hero, she leaves with the goal to enjoy her freedom. Arriving at Arlas, a fantasy world with magic and monsters, a world with numbers, Tiers, and Classes. A world governed by the System that summoned her. But she is not alone, there are other heroes, masters of their element, warped individuals that too have escaped their own hell. And they have their own agenda, from taking over the world to even killing other heroes.

But Arc isn’t any hero, she’s the one that mastered the element of frost: the element of ice that can even freeze the sense of time itself. And when confronted with an incomprehensible task of broken letters — to fulfill her duties as a hero for the broken System — she makes her decision.

To live a normal life, fight whoever comes her way, and ignore whatever the delusional System says. As for the heroes? She will fight them too if they dare to stand in her way

The story is great, I love the MC. Daily updates are great too! Quality is excellent, despite fast updates. The MC is very OP right from the beginning, but still encounters challenges. Also, dragons!
Many people hate on the author, but it is a great book. If you don't like something, just don't read it. Don't leave hate.

I considered skipping this story, considering the amount of negative reviews…
Luckily I didn’t. The book is well written, there is no stupid system theorycrafting and fictional number crunching.
Initially I was afraid everything would be a cakewalk for the hero and there wouldn’t be any serious adversary for the hero, fortunately that fear was unfounded. While The Hero obviously still wins, it is established, that she isn’t the most powerful being.
Is it the best story on roayalroad? Probably not. But from the hundreds of stories I’ve read into, it is pretty comfortably in the top 10%

Arc starts out with a heavy Amelia / One Punch Man feel, but as the chapters go, it quickly leaves behind the bored OP protagonist with an apprentice trope, and she finds enjoyable fights as well as hobbies that she actually enjoys. While she hasn't yet realized what her overarching goals are, Arc is well on track to establishing her goals, as opposed to just floating along, not finding anything worthwhile like Amelia or Saitama.
While the early chapters were a bit difficult to get past due to the tropey feels, soon I found myself looking forward to every single new chapter.
I highly recommend reading Arc, get past the first 30 or so chapters, and you'll start to feel the story becoming unique.

A very interesting story storyline and I very much enjoy how they were transported to the new planet, but they actually make friends unlike other isekai books I read similar to this where the MC doesn’t make friends which makes it a great read and the affinity of frost seems cooler than an affinity of ice.

A delightful read. It’s well written fast paced but engaging and riveting throughout. Characters are compelling and it’s a fun take on the OP mc trope.
I would recommend if you like well written action, and interesting world, and a funny but intense MC.
Although the MC is OP there is still challenge and things that the MC must overcome with more than just brute strength and plot armour.

I love the story, everything about it, something it does frustrate me, but in a good sense, like it was intended to do so. I love all the characters, all of them are really well written, especially Arc, I can see why so many people like and dislike her, she has that personality, it is not a completely good personality, but it's hers.

Read the first couple chapters and took a break, it was enjoyable but something about it was hard for me to get into. But after I came back and got past a few more chapters it just started snowballing for me I couldn't put it down. Would recommend.
I enjoy the relationships and that the MC is OP but so are the opponents so is it really OP? We start seeing Arc having to grapple with her history and how she relates to people. Hope to see this story stick around for a lot longer.

Most people would say chaotic neutral is chaotic stupid, since many a chaotic neutral character in a D&D game will die early on due to poor or impulsive decisions. The heroine in this story is straight up chaotic neutral, but she’s OP enough to avoid dying due to her own antics. The hellish and insane hero tutorial, changed her in both body and mind.
The world itself is brain damaged. People do things that they normally wouldn’t ever consider doing. The reason is a mystery at first, but at the end of book 1 we’ve started getting an idea at the reason behind the insanity.
I’ve seen plenty of people mention that the characters in this story are not well written, I’d argue they are well written and there is a reason for everyone acting the way they are. Whether or not I’m correct remains to be seen.
Regardless, this story is all over the place in the beginning but I’m enjoying it. The best way to read this story is to turn off your brain and enjoy the ride!

Arc is a great series, currently consisting of three great books. The humor is well placed, and it had a good build up of power scaling. Unlike some series, where the MC is either, the strongest existence aside from reality and plot relevance (the true gods in world building). Or, the weakest shmuck that got picked up off the street. its a, yes originally, a pretty standard College/Uni Lass that can barely beet up a dog, and by the end obliterates a dragon (in her tutorial) this section, is blissfully short. some series spend fifty to an entire book on just the tutorial, if done well is engaging, usually, agony, this is not one of those.
Once Arc arrives on Vir, this is wen the narrative really get's into gear and eminently having the "System" the usual narrative guiding force in these stories be broken does one of two things, it leaves Arc pretty much stranded and forcing her explore the world on her own, as we as reader's are, a cleaver move by the author to connect the main character.
we are also told and shown really early on how powerful Arc is and her apathy was actually really nice for me to see, because, we sometimes see that main characters typically, gain great power and then play out the whole "great power comes with great responsibility" narrative which grating. we are also shown that she is a battle junky, an interesting personality combination actually, but she just shifts back really quickly once she has had enough fun or experimented enough, which you can feel as a reader. Fight scenes can sometimes drawl on with the antagonist or protagonist pulls random stuff out of nowhere with no prior reason for why they have that item/ability. there's pretty much none of that here.
The character development of Arc is her becoming less... cold/apathetic. At least towards Cylon (sorry if I misspelt), every one else, no, not really.
Arc isn't all powerful, not even at the end of book three, but there is only one person stronger, and it is very obvious that that wi
