There are not many stories that i have read with such interest but this style of writing is so interesting that i always look for more. This is one such story with a bit of indian flavor and honestly i like it so much.
The storyline is very relatable in the current era of technology and video games. There might be sometime while reading where you think the story is so slow but trust me it's not the case. The ploting is so nicely paced that when you read you get to know why it was looking slow. However the author tried its best to keep these slow chapter to minimal.
Talking about the characters the main character is not a god level niether with extraordinary ambitions but that is the reason i like it, cause its so real. The side characters are very beautifully detailed and they are so cool that you fall for them. The sister of the main character and the jelly creature is so cute that i can't resist.
The story might not be very consistent but the story is so good i can't help other than wait for the next chapter. This story might be slow paced but it feels so good and frustrating at the same time cause you know the next chapter will take a day but the chapter is so good that the wait is worth it.

The story follows a transmigration plot where the MC is transported to another world. I sadly can't write too much about the world itself as I got only to chapter seven where he just appeared there.
The opening to the story is in a game's shop. For those who didn't read the synopsis it isn't immediately clear who the main character is as we are introduced to several characters all at once. Howewer shortly afterwards Miguel finally appears.
We are then introduced to Miguel's family. The characters are deep and well written. But this leads me to my next point and that is pacing which is very slow for my taste.
It isn't a bad thing per say as it gives the author time to develop the characters and set the scene. But I also feel that many potential readers will be discouraged by it.
Grammar seems fine to me with an occasional mistake now and there. Although I'm not a native english speaker so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
The writing style is a little bit plain and I would like to enjoy a bit more colorfull vocabulary but it fullfils its purpose so I don't have a problem with it.
Overall the story is nice and well-written. Although a little bit rough around the edges it captivates the reader so give it a try.
