The "wizard" in the title makes me vote and expect a dark, intense, gore or etc scene. Much better if the main character is an apathy/anti-hero, experimenting body's or etc. 😏😏😏😏

Another really crappily written novel about magic. I'm very pissed, so if this review comes off as ranty, I apologize. First I'd like to point out that this novel is basically a carbon copy of Throne of Magical Arcana. If you read both of them back to back for 20 chapters, you'll be sold about this point. Both live in a world of magic, both worlds of magic have a religious background setting. Both religious background settings are hostile to any magic besides their own. In this way, Throne of Magical Arcana is head and shoulders above this paultry copycat. The only thing that separates these two novels, and I suspect the only reason there hasn't been a lawsuit filed against this plagiarizing piece of crap author is the fact that this story has no musical elements, which in Throne of Magical Arcana, is the major selling point for the first arc. Beyond that, the writing in itself is subpar in its execution, the synopsis mentions a "microchip" that allows the MC to use magic more easily than any other spell caster in the story. This isn't exactly new content and it certainly doesn't break any tropes. The problem with this is the fact that for the first twenty chapters this thing is completely absent. There's no mention of it, in fact, there's no mention of anything having to do with the previous world the MC lived in. Not a single sentence was used to describe anything but the most basic of basic tropes of how the MC died. There's no "want to go back" there's no "I miss my family" there's nothing in this story to show that the MC even came from another world besides the very most basic of basic analogies that the MC sometimes uses to describe things in his mind to us the reader. And even this is very lacking, it's so pathetic that my assessment of it is that the author found it horrendously difficult to come up with a plot that didn't make these analogies. It's not surprising to me really, he copied Throne of Magical Arcana's plot, so he clearly lacks imagination. It doesn't surprise me in the least that he couldn't come up with a nicer way to describe things in his story besides using analogies that fit our world. Getting back on topic, the "microchip" is completely absent for twenty whole chapters and when it finally does show up, it shows up in such a ridiculously plot armory way that I don't even know what to do with it. There's no clever execution, there's nothing to hide it. It's literally "Oh, this is how I'm supposed to do magic, oh damn that's really hard!" "I really wish I had !@$@%!" *Poof* "!@$@% Has been acquired.". LITERALLY. THAT IS LITERALLY WHAT HAPPENS. YOU CAN GO LOOK AT IT YOURSELF! Don't even get me started about more nonsense that happens in this novel. One thing I hate the most about novels is how they sometimes forget their own past plot. Like how something at the start of a story is really important but later on you stop and realize that the major plot point that the entire novel is built around isn't even being mentioned anymore. The mc makes choice to practice fire magic. "Ok." The mc decides to practice fire magic inside his house. "eh" The mc makes huge fire ball of death 3 times more powerful than all the other fireballs he released so far. Super-Fireball explodes shaking his entire basement and leaves a massive meter wide crater on the ground. Mc is unharmed and no1 in the house above him feels anything. ............................................________ ....................................,.-'"...................``~., .............................,.-"..................................."-., .........................,/...............................................":, .....................,?......................................................, .................../...........................................................,} ................./......................................................,:`^`..} .............../...................................................,:"........./ ..............?.....__.........................................:`.........../ ............./__.(....."~-,_..............................,:`........../ .........../(_...."~,_........"~,_....................,:`........_/ ..........{.._$;_......"=,_......."-,_.......,.-~-,},.~";/....} ...........((.....*~_......."=-._......";,,./`..../"............../ ...,,,___.`~,......"~.,....................`.....}............../ ............(....`=-,,.......`........................(......;_,,-" ............/.`~,......`-...................................../ .............`~.*-,.....................................|,./.....,__ ,,_..........}.>-._...................................|..............`=~-, .....`=~-,__......`,................................. ...................`=~-,,.,............................... ................................`:,,...........................`..............__ .....................................`=-,...................,%`>--==`` ........................................_..........._,-%.......` ...................................,
Reading this novel is rage inducing, it keeps repeating the same basic facts and words over and over and over and over. The chapter where he learns magic is one of the worst offenders, the word Fireball is repeated so much i can still hear it echo around my skull. There is also the one where every phrase talks about "heavy armored knights", he almost uses those exact three words 20 times in a row. The author also has every single character talk as if every other person nearby is a clueless idiot with a memory span of 30 seconds. "Hello friend, it is me your fat friend. We've know each other for 14 years and i still have to introduce myself to you every time we meet. I also have to clearly explain my family background and the fact that i love visiting brothels. Have you heard about Mark? He's our classmate that clearly hates you. He hates you because you are going to marry Clarissa and he told you many times he loves Clarissa too! How incredibly interesting! Did you notice that today the sky was blue? It was the same yesterday and as far as memory goes the color hasn't changed, isn't it wonderful?". This is not an exact quote but if you read the novel you'll find very similar situations. Explanations about stuff is similarly repeated ad nauseam, for example when his computer thingy is introduced we get and explanation on how it will greatly speed up his learning new spells. Now every time the MC talks about new spells he has found he also reminds us about the computer that is going to help him, again. The author or translator doesn't even bother changing up the wording a little, it's like the explanation has been copy and pasted multiple times in different chapters. At this point i'm not even sure if the author is doing it because he thinks the people reading are unimaginably stupid or he's trying to beef up the word count. The story is nothing to write home about, incredibly generic and borrows a whole bunch of elements from other more "famous" novels in this particular genre. Church clearly bad, he has computer in the new body even though it was injected in his blood in the previous word???, he learns magic from a random bored guy and he becomes ruthless at the flip of a coin. I'm quite surprised he hasn't raped anyone yet due to yin and yang imbalance... Almost forgot, he has the computer in his head doing nothing the whole time instead of already calculating stuff he'll obviously need in the future. He'll wait till the last moment to turn it on and find the best combination for a spell he had for months. Why? Anyway i'm bored, i don't feel like writing about this novel anymore. This story is crap, the translator is crappy, he probably pops the raws in google translate and just changes a few words if he's feeling it. If he's doing more then that it sure doesn't show. Don't waste your time with this, eating handfuls of sawdust would be a more productive and fun way to spend your valuable time.
WARNING ⚠️ :to anyone who isn’t authist and has a religion don’t even bother to read this book it’s meant for people who enjoy to cuss religion The writer clearly has some problems his authis so he doesn’t like religion that okay but to go out of his way just to cuss and insult other religions and calling them back ward that’s too much t
I'll update this review after the English is fixed. I can't handle the oddities. The quality of novels has been going downhill lately, is it just me?

Honestly, we came for the computer but so far nothing. The story is similar to many others like it. Once you've read one, you've pretty much read them all. They just different names and behave a little bit different from each other.
Very slow and the synopsis says he has a super computer in his brain, but in the first 17 chapters hasn't been introduced. So far I find the story dull and the mc is incredibly boring.
curious about the continuation of this novel? You can read the MTL version first on : novelraw.blogspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I really enjoy this story. It features all the typical elements of a fantasy setting: wizards, swordsman that follow their own power system, and the ever important religious nutbags. Despite it having many elements that come in typical fantasy stories, I found this to be enjoyable as the MC seems to be accepting the world like I would. BTW: this is from NoLoliNoLife. My main account was banned from commenting. THIS IS A REBELLION!!!!!!!!!!!! pls don't ban this one
Dont expecting any intelligent mc like in warlock of magus world or wizard world here, this is purely xianxia novel that was disguised as fantasy magic novel. In the early 100 chapter you will not feel it, but after you read until chapter 400 you will know how much my statement was the truth. MC was dumb, incredibly stupid without any redeeming quality, he was only special merely because his AI cheat Matrix. Building spell model? Matrix, solve it for me! Concocting alchemy? Matrix, show me the steps properly! Constructing rune? Matrix, solve it for.., oh you cant do it? Oh well, i dont have talent for runes then... Aside from his dumb intelligent, his behavior is also moronic, it was the standard xianxia mc troupe. Strong opponent? Charge! Oh ****, I barely win. Lucky encounter? Easy, every step I got treasures. Trapped in deadly ruin? Haha, I got a new ancient magic instead. Well, thats all. I rate this novel 3 star based on those, but I refuced it by 1 star because I cant help it but to compared with magical fantasy masterpiece such as WMW and Wizard World.
Can already tell from the synopsis and previous reviews that this novel is just a bland and plagiarized Novel copying The wizard world (and unsuccessfully unlike WMW). Only good thing about this novel is seeing all the butt hurt religion followers blowing a gasket because the novel refers to them as back-ward. Like imagining living in 2019 the era of information and science and still believing in something that has no evidence of it existing (except maybe a book written thousands of years ago). Anyways 1.6 stars only because Qidan usually hires pretty good translators and editors at least making the novel readable.
The novel is very basic , just another carbon copy pf the ones already created also that poater image has been used by another novel already , this one is a little zoomed in and i checked and its from diff authors
Even with the collapse of retail, A Wizard's Secret is a chain that remains a mall staple throughout America. It is, perhaps, the most notable American designer, manufacturer, and marketer of wizard's lingerie, robes, and beauty products, If you're looking for a CHA bonus for that special someone, you should shop here.
Dont expecting any intelligent mc like in warlock of magus world or wizard world here, this is purely xianxia novel that was disguised as fantasy magic novel. In the early 100 chapter you will not feel it, but after you read until chapter 400 you will know how much my statement was the truth. MC was dumb, incredibly stupid without any redeeming quality, he was only special merely because his AI cheat Matrix. Building spell model? Matrix, solve it for me! Concocting alchemy?

Aside from his dumb intelligent, his behavior is also moronic, it was the standard xianxia mc troupe. Strong opponent? Charge! Oh ****, I barely win. Lucky encounter? Easy, every step I got treasures. Trapped in deadly ruin? Haha, I got a new ancient magic instead. ........ Around chapter 400, mc will stumble upon fragment of law as though he stumble upon rock when mc merely level 3 wizard. Just so you know this is division of power realm in this novel: - level 1-3 wizard: low level wizard - level 4-6 wizard: medium level wizard that able to build their own wizard tower - level 7-9 wizard: high level wizard, they need to personally create their own spell - archmage: the peak powerhouse in mortal realm before the realm of law. Even archmage will not be able to find fragment of law, but mc at this chapter 400 already possessed 2 fragment of law of fire and ice. Please author, mc plot armor is too strong. .............. MC is also too hotblooded, he doesnt had calm judgment and mind unlike WMW and WW mc. Just this alone already disqualify him as wizard since wizard or mage was being with intelligent and calm mind. When he saw his teacher killed he should endure it and silently take revenge in the future but no, mc dumbly charge at the enemy like idiot even though the enemy was much stronger. He gamble his life by attempting using 4th stage of dark eye even though he know this is the reason his teacher die. ......... In the late story around chapter 900, mc was already the peak powerhouse that able to to fight the whole consciousness of realm but eventually defeated and banished from the emptiness realm. MC then drift to other realm and occupied other people body, a bit like Leylin when he infiltrated realm of gods in wmw. Here because he lost his previous physical body, mc lose his AI cheat matrix. And you know the most rage inducing is MC was already became the peak powerhouse with dozens thousands of years, but in this mortal realm mc immediately became useless without his AI cheat. THEN WHATS THE POINT OF HAVING DOZENS THOUSANDS YEARS EXPERIENCE AS PEAK POWERHOUSE OF MULTIPLE WORLDS, IF MC BECOME USELESS IN MORTAL REALM JUST BECAUSE HE LOST AI CHEAT, JUST DIE!!!! ............... There are total of 1059 chapters in this novel, as for the ending? I'll not spoiled it but I'll give you my impressions: boring, dull, frustating, and rushed. Many said that WMW ending is kind of rushed, but this novel is on another level. It was like the novel was axed and the author was forced to end it in several chapters. Dude, it'll be much better if the ending was like this: 'mc explore myriad of planes and finally able to find his previous planet earth to find out the reason of his transmigration', but no! The ending was explaining nonsense about power of destruction and whatnot. You can try to read its mtl at: https://novelraw.blogspot.com/2019/03/a-wizards-secret-mtl-chapter-1059-end.html?m=1 It was readable, but you will feel that this last chapter didnt had any 'ending or epilogue kind of feeling'. If I guess correctly the publishing company (Qidian) most likely axed this novel and warn the author to finished it in several chapter. This novel pissed me off, but it deserved at least 3 star. However I give this novel 1 star coz the ending was super duper horrible, it was better if the author end it at 900 ch, since at that chapters the novel was still decent.
Wow.....another Merlin character...... 5/5 Amazing originality in name making. Hopefully it turns out well. Havent read this novel yet as of this review.
Completely mediocre, read until chapter 6 and couldn't be bothered anymore. Bland, typical wuxia plot except in "western setting". Plot hole where his friends talk to him as if he previously was also an amnesiac, stale characters including MC, plot so slow moving to the point of meaningless, info dumping instead of showing.
I was fascinated by the potential of the spell system, and world but sadly the characters keep getting more and more disappointing. Maybe I'll come back to this story later, but honestly unless the characters gain some depth I'm afraid it won't be worth it. As of chapter 96 I'm dropping it from my library.
This novel copies the overly used formula that most Reincarnated into a Wizard World stories do. And worst of all the touted "Super Computer" hasn't even appeared yet! If you'd like to read *Good* Wizard World stories I'd recommend: If you'd like some suggestions of my favorite Novels: Warlock of the Magus World (The OG reincarnation with a chip novel, one of the Best out there) Age of Adepts (Another Wizard chip story about a truly guileful MC) The Wizard World (Chip story that has very Fever Dream set pieces, like reading a vivid Lucid dream) When A Mage Revolts (A guy reincarnates with a system that trolls him, eventually becomes the Hero of all persecuted Mages) Advent of the Archmage (Guy reincarnates as God of Lights Chosen, gets skillbook shop and quests to save world) The Book Eating Magician (Guy's hand turns into a Grimoire that can eat books to learn magic)
