Self-Published

Community Rating

Description

Every day for six years straight, from the time he was twelve, Darius Omen hit an anvil ten thousand times a day without stopping. He did not know the reason why he had to, all he knew was that he must. Little did he know that hit by hit, strike by strike, his originally meek body was being refined into something that had never been seen before in the history of mankind.

In the war against spirits, mankind had little to be proud of. Yet one day a young man entered the battlefield. He dazzled millions and killedeven more, all with merely a rusty old hammer than no one could hold or fathom.

...

Novel started by Patriarch Onion (Author of Solitary Sword Sovereign and Titan's Throne), later picked up by Jym Pineapple (As of chapter 5 onwards) andhosted on theonionjunktion on royal road with the commentary of the beautiful and handsome Cookie. Now edited by Entelechy. (He reedited stuff as well)

    Today we'll talk about the new gem that i was able to find for the ever growing readers of our honorable guide.The restaurant Theonionjunktion serves range of different dishes that will appeal to the palate of the most demanding customers. The meal of the day with the name "House of Omen" is quite interesting preposition for those that search for something new that make their taste buds tingle and invegorate their never ending appetite for trying out something similiar but different at the same time.
    We asked master chef  Jym Pineapple about the recipe he gave away few of the ingredients that makes that dish unique:
    * a little bit of humor
    * a ting of violence
    * and a  table spoon of good story building
    Sadly ingredients are on demand and the current economy can't provide enough resources that's why sometimes there's long waiting time between order and consumption (up to 22 months), but if you are able to find the dish on menu it'd be good idea to try and satiate your appetite.

    Glad you've returned to this story! I have been hoping it would continue.

    I have read to the latest chapter (37) and i like it so far.
    The world is good, the story is good, and the characters are good.
    My only problem is the MC's slight personality flip-floping.
    But overall it is a great read and you should try it if you have the time.

    Holy Shit I Fell In Love With This Story!
    This one sentence should be able to make any being; whether they be noble or peasent, understand just how much I enjoy reading this story, light novel, or webnovel. (however you want to define it)
    While the spelling errors were plenty, and the grammar would be jummbled, commas would be misplaced or put in places where they dont belong; I believe, that the diction (word choice) was what brought life to the light novel — resulting in the— 3.5 Stars.
    The story was very attractive, I could not help but dive into each and every chapter, one after the other like I was eating skittles! However... all good things must come to an end; I was left unsatisfied, but the reason I was unsatisfied was because I had, all to quickly, hit the very end of all the chapters that were available; thus, though this may sound unfair, I have decided to rate the story with— 4.5 Stars
    Darius; is without a doubt, one of my most favorite characters in any of the light novels I have read... and I have read a few hundred... Striking a anvil 10,000 times a day is definitely a way to become strong, and despite his strength... he’s a fucking coward! He has one of the most ironic gaps I have ever seen in a characters personality; despite him being a badass who can oneshot a spirit with his almighty hammer, he is one who decides to run rather than fight! I have never seen a character with such a gap;thus, I must rate this charater with a full— 5 Stars
    Now That I Have Explained Most Of My Ratings, It Is Time For The Overall Score... Which Is
    4.5 Stars!!!

    Style: I like the writing style overall. It starts off strong, much like the MC Darius, but then stagnates in the sense that we never get much deeper into the emotions behind the characters. The dialogue is pretty well balanced, and there are some comedic moments in the story like Lionel chasing after Darius. Some chapters have odd spacing that completely throws me off though. In short, the style makes the story easy to read with enough beef to get into the world, but there’s a little something missing, perhaps some fat to make it tastier. (Does this analogy make sense?)
    Story: I had really high hopes for this one. I was intrigued by the start, mostly because the MC seemed like a different breed. He wasn’t arrogant, and he seemed like a purposeful ‘coward’ that didn’t want to deal with annoying things in order to focus on his goal. I thought his stoicism had a deeper reasoning behind it, but soon enough I realized that he was indeed a coward through and through with less of a backbone that I thought. He was inconsistent because sometimes he acted like the beginning, straightforward on a mission with no desire to get caught up in something annoying with a keen insight into people as with Lionel, but then he flips and kowtows to avoid conflict and suck up to people without defending himself. The wits, smarts, and staunchness are just all over the place resulting in not understanding who he really is. Okay, I’m digressing into the character section too much. The spiritknight and spiritsmith lore is cool. I dig that, but not how the MC goes about in his journey to get there as it’s disappointing.
    Grammar: I don’t know if it’s the editor, but so far so good with basically unnoticeable quirks that most stories have.
    Character: I delved into this earlier, so I won’t repeat myself. The biggest problem I see with Darius even more than bouts of cowardice is his all glorious and magnificent goal of *drumroll* becoming rich so he can hook up with lots of beautiful ladies. Yup.

    I think the main issue I have is that I don’t feel the struggle from our MC, he does have moments he’s desperate in, however they are overcome so quickly to poping up that it leaves me kind of uninvested, I enjoyed moments within the story but I never felt like he had earned them, even though it’s constantly described how he is earning them, it’s just not drawn out enough, not enough weight is given to his struggle that it make our MC seem like he’s just hopping from one power fantasy moment to another with no buildup.

    ★★★ 2.5
    Its mediocre, that's all I really have to say and that really doesnt justify continuing to read it especially factoring in that if you look at the authors page there way to much stuff on hiatus to be a good sign.
