    Good story, hope you carry on! May be the description says too much, since after 13 chapters the story don't go beyond the resume done in the description.

    While I enjoy the story, I will admit to wondering if the speed is right, it feels good, but it also feels fast. And I'm not sure how that makes sense. The plot points used to boost the mc power are hard work, but they aren't montaged, which helps keep proper pacing. However the mc did get a pretty large power boost, but it also was balanced by having drawbacks, and this is appreciable. But we also don't really know how he stacks up against others. There is no current ranking system that we can tell. He's stronger than this creature! Which can only be compared to his father an ex hero, that's not a good basis cause both of them slaughtered the monsters easily. The love interest is unknown, even if I am rooting for one in particular. (Go Trixie!) All of my complaints are nullfied by good balancing within the story, but it's not entirely quantified in a way that let's you understand whether the mc is a Clark Kent, or a Superman. Otherwise, with the posting of chapter 16.1, I'm hoping the power growth stage will take a more steady climb than an explosive one. Perhaps branching out more for other skills and thus overall dragging down "power gain" in the short run, but doing wonderous things in the long run.
    Overall, I'm very much enjoying this, and loving the unique way the world is set up, and the characters used for interaction. It's very enjoyable.

    Story is somewhat good. But all the annoying little side chapters seriously detract from the story.

    The writing is not great, could use a good editor. Or the author just needs more practice. Kinda like myself. The same thing with grammar. The story itself is a little weird and the MC doesn't make sense sometimes, kinda inconsistant. Overall I would say the author just needs to go over the story and clean it up and will have something that is alright.

    The writing suffers from persistent and frequent grammatical problems, making the story hard to follow at times. The mechanics could be interesting but they are not introduced clearly. The main character's power progression jumps rapidly at the start, aquiring bonuses like +2000% to a stat - without any serious elaboration of what massive jumps like that feel like or let him do. In short, the story feels scattered; like I'm reading random snippets from a story instead of a story itself.

    Seriously this story is good for now, but the problem is, only the story is good
    First i feel like the author never re-read what he is writing in EVERY chapter you will find a sentence without meaning just cuz the author is lazy as fuzk to correct it. Add to this other big mistake; even me Who isnt english my eyes have bleed
    The mc have a weird character, he is filled with guilt after Killing monsters pleading for there life, he consider himself honorable, but he dont care about Killing a few elven tribes probably composed of children and elder just for his greed
    There are some plothole too...
    I will continue to read and call this my little sin
