Description

If you could have a superpower, what would you choose?

A voice asks that question in the minds of many. Ethan Winters is one of those who was asked the question. He answered: "To be a beacon of light to others, help those in need, and punish those who do evil.”

Granted powers inspired by holy warriors from the video games he plays with his fiancée, he has to navigate this new world of superpowered individuals. People who, like him, were asked the same question.

I'm enjoying how the world weaving is taking place and the pace of the story. The MCs stance and focus on ‘wanting to help’ keeps the story from running away!

I've read a handful of chapters and am enjoying the characters so far. There is a bit of wish fulfillment in how some of the things come together for our MC, but I don't know what else you'd expect in a superpower story. MC is a bit of a boy scout and is coming to grips with the fact that the world isn't built for nice guys and boy scouts. Fortunately, he is both stubborn and powerful, and I look forward to seeing how his world evolves.
