Description

This is a series of multiples books compiled together.

It starts out with the basic setting of a fantasy adventure world but I assure that as things continue, you will be in for quite a surprise :) :

Book 1 (Finished): Over the course of time, countless heroes have risen to defeat the demon lord. Their names, recorded in history. Tales of their achievements are known across the land. But what about the demon lords who have fallen? What of their side of the stories? One such tale is about a young boy born of Dark. What would he do now that all the powers of the old demon lords of the past belong to him? Would he pursue the path of Dark he was destined to? Or would he reach out to the Light at the cost of his own life? There is no other path. And yet he seeks it, insatiably.

Book 2(ongoing):Tales of Astora: Insurrection

A Great read with all the necessary ingredients for a Great story.
Style: Love the pacing and the POV of all the characters placed throughout the story chapters. The story isn’t focused only on the MC, which plagues many stories, at least on this site. But all the characters are connected to the MC and thus create a very wonderful experience to read the story.
Story: You have to read it to find out. But, I can say that there is a lot of OPness involved. Again, this isn’t the main focus of the story but the interactions of the characters involved either they may be just talking, fights, solving mysteries or at least try to solve it XD. Getting stronger is the last thing on anyone’s mind since most of them are already strong.
Characters: This is one of the main points of this Novel. All the characters are really well defined and just keep getting better. There are Gods, Angles, Devils, Demons, Dragons, Elves, Humans etc. All these races are fully involved in the story and connected to the main plot.
Grammer: NO complaints.
If you like OPness, Great story, Mystery, Demons and Gods fighting for the control of the World; at least it looks like that on the surface, then, Do Read This Story. There’s a lot of foreshadowing involved and it all comes together at the end, I think. This Story is planned and there’s an ending just waiting to be read. Do give this a try.

Exactly what I was looking for. Grammar is good even there are some mistakes from time to time (but i am noob in english, so...), characters are nicely developed and story is my cup of tea. But i am new here and i haven't read many fictions yet, so don't take my review too seriously.
Anyway, in my point of view, this is really great story. Thank you author for making this and i hope you will continue.
Written at chapter 15.

Just going to say it simply cause i really never did any review before and dont know how
this story is simply amazing - the plot and twists - the secrets and mysterious - the hope and despair - all and all the story is one of the greatest i have read so far and i dont regret reading it at all

the grammar is quite good and the story is very easy to read and understand but even though it is easy the meaning behind lines is complected like poetry of poets
+
length of each chapter is enough to satisfy u for...enough time to not be bored and after each chapter there is enough mysterious to make u burn your mind to find the answers xD
+
the quality and quantity of the release is enough to satisfy the hungry wolves(us readers) every day (or two day)
all in all this story worth the time u spend reading it and i really like if it can get more famous then it is now cause it deserve it

The story is great but can improve. The grammar is the only thing that is holding back the novel from reaching it's greatness. Thata why pay great attention to grammar?

Wow, I'm really surprised that this story is not more well-know. The world building is impressive. Dedication and research apparent here. Let's get into it.
Style: The style and word-choice feels lack-luster. The pacing is a little fast in the beginning and I will get onto that later. The biggest issue here is how the events that occurs plays out like reading a book.
I know,I know...actually reading here but.. you know what I mean. It's just not engaging. An example of this is when their village is pillaged by an unknown force and the resident villagers are slain. Being a village on the outskirts of thier domain, they are vulnerable to raids and are without the backing of thier domain army. A group of people outside of the village is then sent to investigate what had transpired. Surprised in seeing their imperial army come to their rescue, a boy that is welcoming their arrival is then shot in the head by an arrow of the approaching supposed rescuers and the rest of the surviving villagers are finally clued in on what is happening. I absolutely loved how this was set up, but it reads out exactly as how I described it. The lack of impact/sensory words really make this scene seem less impressive than what its really was, and this is just one of the many cases were it feels lacking. It's not a huge deal, but for future improvements, there should be more loaded words to make this scene reach its full potential.
Story: The story's great. Three chapters in and there's already foreshadowing, inserts of lore, and action.
Our main protagonist lives with is (unrelated) family with his sister and mom. His past is shrouded by mystery since it can be assumed that circumstances with his lineage has caused him and his family to be outcasted to a remote village. The first chapter forebodes his importance since literal.. Angels are taking actions towards him.
The pacing is a tiny bit fast but enjoyable and the organization is really well-done in my opinion.
Grammar: The grammar is co

I was surprised to find a story like this on RR. I did not expect much at first, but as I continued to read, I found myself getting hooked on, wanting to read the next chapter. While the story has it's flaws like a lack of detail and depth, it certainly is a great read for anyone who enjoys fast pace stories with OP mcs.
Nice Job author and keep up the work!!!!! :)

Hi, this will be my first review on a Web Novel in Royalroadl, so please don't expect too much.
To be clear, I don't have high standards nor the excellent examining skills like the other more experienced Reviewers on Royalroadl, but I do wish to clarify certain points of this Web Novel, which I sincerely feel has potential as a promising Web Novel.
*WARNING*
*IF YOU HAVEN’T READ THE STORY YET, THERE ARE SPOILERS HERE. READ WITH DISCRETION*
So let’s get started, shall we?
Style:
It's a good thing that the story is not only focused solely on the MC, although it's seems that every major or minor character is, one way or another, connected to him. We are able to visualize the background and history of some of the side characters like Bloody Mary of the Hunters, or the demon Mephisto, and thus being able to understand and empathize with them to a certain extent. The story also shows several interesting side scenes on an antagonistic character's POV that easily pique the reader's interest.
Chronologically, I personally think it's progressing a tad too fast. While I can understand that in this story the MC is the “destined/chosen/long Awaited One” main character material, that thousands of years of work or ancient beings await his prophesied coming by Fate (her/him)self and prepared a path for him to walk and be the (DemonLord/KingOfTheGods(?)), but logically speaking, isn't he still just a child that is forced to experience the extreme realities of what life has to offer and mature faster than average? How many years have actually passed since the MC's village was burnt back in the earlier chapters? Honestly, I myself am not too sure what is the exact age of the MC currently, moreover that he is immortal now?
Fortunately, Necrophedius-san (the author) did not have too many time gaps and the readers can still follow the chronological flow of the story. For example, although the MC entered a parallel dimension, or another world if you have it, in chapter 61, there wasn’t th

The story is good. There's a lot of thought put into structuring the world and it shows. However, the grammar and style, while not atrocious, is bad enough that it makes the story read a lot worse. You confuse the use of the singluar and the plural. Occasionally, there will be even be words missing in sentences. Some phrases are awkward and I'm not sure if you don't know the grammar or were just in a rush to write the chapter (your releases are pretty fast given chapter lengths). Finally, you have ZERO sentence variety. Almost every one is a simple subject-predicate. It sounds monotonous.
If you fix your grammar and style, this story would easily be at least 4 stars. Please do it yourself or get someone to do it for you.

So, basically a guy fantasy where all of the hot women like him and all of the 'good' men are old guys who want to teach him cool stuff. Didn't make it too far, maybe it gets better? Anyway, not awful, i don't regret reading as far as i did.

I love the overall story but the grammer of it is horrendous. It needs some serious proofreading and retweaking to be the 5 star story that it is. I made it to 44 before, I gave up on it because of how many times bad grammer would ruin the storys flow.
