This is definitely some novel that you guys should check out. A plus point for the sci-fi references, and a gripping MC to boot. Writing - its actually pretty good and I like the immense vocabulary of the author for coming up with the best possible words to weave into his sentences and paragraphs. There were little to no grammar pet peeves, which gave me a really pleasant read. I should also mention the mad imagination of this author and his knack for naming things and characters. The Benedictus? I love how it sounds tbh Characters - they feel raw and engaging, and its great to get a glimpse of their personalities as the story progresses. Its good to know that Alex isn't overbearing like I thought he would be - he's a naughty mofo incognito despite his killer rep, and it was a pleasantly begrudging twist when the truth about Kain was revealed. Overall, I like the depths of the characters. Development - the pace is really great, and each chapter leaves you wanting for more content, so good job on that Stability - keep it up World - this is created an extremely complicated world that requires a lot more vivid imagery and descriptions. There were inconsistencies on this part, but they are hardly noticeable and can be easily corrected too since it was pointed out in some paragraph comments. In conclusion, this is a book you should give a try πŸ‘

Yeah, so i had to shamelessly give myself another review but this time i gave myself 5stars. the last review i gave myself had a low rating because i had just started writing and to be honest i didn't have any confidence in my wirting. I know that i can delete it, but my first critic came as a reply under my review, so i am very reluctant in deleting it. Although my confidence has increased, i am still a learner in this aspect. and just to add a little something, a little over-view of MC's character. A lot of people critic it saying that he was described to be apathetic and then later on he started acting like an 11 year old .. yes he was apathetic and he acts childish now, and there is a logical reason for that ( I can't say the reason because i feel like i would be dropping a spoiler.) After coming to the new world he realized something that he never knew. if you want to know what then read the book... Thank you πŸ’πŸ’... signed: shameless/crazy author...

I really enjoyed reading this story so far and I have caught up all the way, I do think that people should give it a try. I'm not saying that it is perfect, but other than the annoying main character in the beginning which he just develops better as time goes on I really like the story. I find most of the side characters interesting and the story always keeps me engaged and even though he is slightly overpowered he is not just steamrolling through the other characters there are a lot of character that give him a tough time. Keep up the good work author can wait for more.

Amazing story, lots of good interactions between the mc and the side characters. Everything generally seems like its fits within the story. However the biggest issue with this story has to be the alters as they came out of nowhere and they honestly take away more from the story than they add. Honestly if they just suddenly disappeared in any of the chapters than I’d be happier.

good book, my rating is only so low cause i rated the stability of updates 1 star. the reason being that the updates are so inconsistent and slow, btw if the author mentioned something that was making him be slow on the updates in the latest chapter, then sorry cause i havent read the latest chapters as i am trying to wait a little so i can binge it

I didn't expect it to be this great, but it's an amzing story. I am absolutely loving the dialogs, even though it sometimes distracts me in similar ways as our main character. It's well written and I love the dynamic between him and his first ever friend.

Let start by saying I dinged the author on updating stability since its been a while since we have had any updates (between chp 292-293I suspect the author went on vacation but didn’t leave a note. That being said, this book is great. The character building is top notch. The fact that the MC has multiple personalities who talk to each other makes their arguments hilarious . Plus its used as a plot point to explain that while the MC is OP, he cant use all his power at the same time because his personalities are the ones that know how to use a particular power so his personality switches depending on the situation. Its like have 4 very different MCs in one. One is super shy yet blood thirsty to the point where he terrifies the others, one is cold and analytical , another is a flirt and con artist always looking for that next score or scam and then we have our normal hero. The world building is cool. I love his mysterious master who’s a pervert that basically tortures him in the name of training. The biggest plus of this novel is the character development. You truly get a feel for what motivates the MC and all his companions. There is no harem(Thank God) although girls like him. I highly recommend this book. I have been trying to motivate the author by spending coins and voting for the book. Hopefully my dastardly plan works.

the characters are simple and easy to understand and read. but also complex enough to obviously have things hidden. ways of introducing characters is abstract and magnificent. It feels like a book version of TTIGRAAS

one strong aspect of this novel would be character development people aren't just mindless things depending on mc another word the world isn't built just for the mc . people act as how we expect from their character feelings are shown strongly the important subject of romance doesn't just happen on first sight and trust doesn't form immediately so this aspect makes the novel reasonable one thing that I have complains about would be the difference between stages of cultivation cause other than getting a bit stronger we don't see any thing , it would have been better if the author had put some work in there for example : in whitch realm could they fly or minor things like a change in color of their core or manifestation of some spirit etc

on thing I have noticed the author loves high numbers(i ddont feel comfortable with this) 1::12 stages for elemental talent while normal people have atleast level6 talent 2::even low level EC is worth thousands of gold while we see HD EC being spent like air 3::every student gets a thousand merits while even a little punish can take that away so I assume that 1merit isn't worth much why are numbers worth so little in here no offence I really like this novel it's filled with new ideas an important aspect is that he isn't reborn he got those bloodlines cause he deserved that we see personal growth I sometimes wonder if the author is some psychologist or sth wonder if author has read douluo dalu novel series there are 10 cultivation realms in there with each having a name of their own but memorising them is easy because they have a number attached to them it would be nice if you could ad that as well for example call some one a first stage rune master or etc

when I first started reading this I wasn't sure it was something I would really get into but I've spent the last few days buying coins just to power read this. the author has created a wonderful multi-layered world (pun intended for those who have read) that has completely captured my interest. I am very much looking forward to reading more of this. Keep up the good work, the_fallen!

It started off really good, up until all of a sudden he has multiple personalities which just completely ruins the story. Not to mention how cringy it got once it started.

This book is more or less interesting... The characters, the world building, the authors style of writing... Everything fits well... Sure the MC might annoy you in the first 60 chapters, if you can get passed that then I assure you that you'll enjoy this book....................

I think the author set the story and background of the character really well. Being a top assassin, I was expecting him to be a prodigy in combat and from being summoned I was expecting him to be talented in cultivation. This made me really excited to read more. However, out of the blue he gets 3 different personalities that can take over his body which really sucks in my opinion. From there his character comes off as just really inexperienced and much too trusting for someone who was a 'top assassin'. He spills secrets regularly about himself and shows off. Also he full trusts the first person who he interacts with like immediate best friends. It might grow on me later on but at the moment I'm not feeling it.

he's first described to be calculative and apathetic with the exception of his first love. Now its seems like he lacks IQ and is way too immature. he sounds more like a rich brat than a killer whose suffered 7 years.
