Description

To be taken to another world; isn't that the kind of thing that nearly everyone wishes for once in their life? To use their savvy knowledge of how things usually go in that situation to take advantage, and lead a life where they are the center and in control of their destiny.But in the stories, the one who is brought ends up with a grand power to help them through. Here, a man is brought to a foreign world as his new character in the VRMRPG, Underworld of Armok, at Level 1. In safety there are few benefits, only by taking risks far beyond his level could one proceed.Transported to another world, he wishes to do good and be a hero. Accumulating power to help the less fortunate. There's just one caveat; he's a Necromancer, and his greatest source of strength will probably get him lynched.Quick DescriptionAnother video game/isekai novel. Unfortunately, the MC has crossed over during character creation of a Necromancer and is Level 1. He also lacks the ever so helpful status window.Fair warning, the Friendly Villager Necromancer arc(1) is slow. He does not want to run out into the dangerous world to get killed right after arriving. Sucks to be Level 1, eh? Git gud scrub. It's basically a Slice of Life from his perspective. The Thread, in case you get a bit confused about people/places. [16+] Now probably! For strong language and violence! And anthropophagy and lewd intimations! And stupid jokes and obscure references! And philosophical ditherings and a slow pace! Make peace with the absurd, and come to terms with the terrible!

Am currently binging what you've written so far and am loving every chapter. Keep up the great work!P.S also DOWN WITH THE KNIFE EARS!! They've gotten too much praise in fiction as it is.

    I don't read much video game lit, so I'm likely not the best person to give a review.  However, from what I do know of the genre, I think the author is doing well.
    What I liked:
    Very easygoing.  Humor works well.  Easy to read and digest. Quick start.
    What could use a bit of work:
    Slightly jarring at times, but nothing a second pass wouldn't fix.
    Keep up the work, and wishing you the best,

    Funny and captivating. If you don't mind the slow story pace it's perfect. Really liked the absence of a status screen, this story shows how one can make a stranded in video game story enjoyable. Good powerscaling too.

    I've read many stories on RRL so I'm confident in saying that this one is one of the few good ones.
    Apart from the pace being a bit slow at times it is well rounded, has a good amount of descriptions but not too many and what's most important to me 3-Dimensional believable characters.
    The moment I'm writing this is up-to-date to the 65th chapter.
    By the way, Advon I feel neglected, cuddle me more..

    Pretty good storytelling and a comppeling story where you can feel the world's and MC's motivations well enough.
    A good mix of day-to-day freindly necromancer lifestyle and exitment/battle and interest.

    Certainly one of the gems of RR, this author stays out of the grind and focuses on character interaction and problem-solving.
    I'm quite a fan of the MC, who is easy to relate to and get behind. Several plotlines appear to be condensing as the story progresses, and I'm excited to see how our author builds to the first climax.
    Excellent grammar and good stylistic choices.
    I'll be waiting for more. :D

    In general all the parts are good grammar and proper sentence structure. And a person who understands that all necromancers are not evil makes the MC smart not too strong but not to weak a perfect balance I reread it 2 times
