  I'm a little surprised this one doesn't have any reviews yet. Well, allow me to change that. I'll probably turn this into an advanced review later.
  The story seems like a pretty classic 'isekai'/portal fantasy LitRPG, though I haven't noticed many of the usual isekai tropes. The protagonist wakes up in a ruined castle in the wilds and has to figure things out from here. She gets hurt a lot and is definitely out of her depth, but gradually rises to the occasion. Not without making some mistakes, but that feels pretty realistic.
  I enjoyed the story. The magic system (or just system?) makes sense and progress feels earned. We haven't seen all that much of the world, but what we have seen is interesting and hints at more to come. There is action and exploration, the fight scenes are nice. I especially liked the last action sequence.
  It is clear that English isn't the author's first language and there are some mistakes, but not to the point that it would make it hard to read. I'd advise the author to be careful of 'false friends', homophones and punctuation (there's occasionally a missing period). Another piece of advice I would offer is to take another look at Liz' thoughts and internal monologue, especially when she's pondering some decision. It read a bit clunky to me sometimes. But these are pretty much nitpicks, and the writing is pretty good.

  This is very interesting, although it still feels like we are in the tutorial still.
  The main character is relatable, trapped in a completely new world, with no idea what she is doing.
  She is not immediately supremely confident and does everything correctly. She is more learning by failing, which is realistic, in my opinion.
  The story is good as well. We definitely are still in the tutorial, but it is a good tutorial. There is a plot thread started early on which has not been continued since, but which shows that somethig will happen. In my opinion, the author should move that plot thread introduction a bit towards the end.
  Maybe to the scene where she applies the tatoo, instead of cutting to where she regains conciousness we see what is happening in the wider world a bit? Just an idea.
  Still, that is only a minor issue, or rather not really an issue at all.
  There is some mystery that has been introduced, which might need closure at some point, but that point is not yet there, so everything is fine.
  The style fits the story very well.
  Grammar is excellent.
  All in all, a great book to read, which I can only encourage you to try.

  First of all, I enjoyed the story so far. But I didn't understand the choices the MC did in regards to how she focus on skills, time spent and stat points. I first thought the MC would become a mage, but that doesn't seem to be the goal for the MC.
  Basically, depending on how the author takes the story and this issue comes clearer I might give the story more points. As it is now, it's a bit confusing on what the MC is thinking.. Too good to drop though, so I will give it another 10-20 chapters to see how the story evolves.

  My main hangup on the story is style.  Most of this is attributable to the author writing in a foreign language, such as awkward phrasing.  Some of this is the tendency of the protagonist to go on extended internal monologues in the middle of chapters.  And a part of this is that the way the protagonist is described as moving about the setting is wonky at times.
  The protagonist is very alternatively minded on how to use the LitRPG system to help herself.  A less friendly reviewer might call the protagonist a bit of an idiot.  I'm not sure about that, but I do agree that it's an odd approach that doesn't make much intuitive sense (at least to me).  Also, the first arc is about that she's a mage that can't do magic, which is a little odd in my mind.
  Additionally, the protagonist has some really serious plot armor.  Through chapter 9, there are so many instances where she should have just been killed, but instead overcomes ridiculous odds against stronger opponents.  Then, in chapter 10
  she literally died because the tattooing ritual to fix her magic problem backfired. But the System revived her.
  On the other hand, it almost seems like she's overly fixated on clean water (??). Like, I get that for realism, and it can be addressed well in stories, but the way it's handled here it just gets in the way.
  The plot itself is basically she's trying to get strong enough so she can leave the starting area and hopefully find help to return to Earth. Pretty standard.  That said, the way the plot points are hit are very video game like.  I kid you not, the first chapter consists of her wandering around the starting area castle until she finds the tutorial locket/grandpa. She later adopts some kittens.
  Also, to be clear, when the synopsis says she wakes up in a dungeon, that means like a castle dungeon (e.g., a jail cell in the basement).  This is an important distinction because she later ends up accidentally in an magical dungeon filled with monsters.
