Drake is extremely relatable to how I would react in such a situation (which may or may not be terrible) but his off-hand comments and sayings really got a few good laughs out of me. I have not read all the way, but I found myself already glued reading past my expected appointment time, to the point where I had to keep reading even while I was meeting others. All the usual tropes is there, and it worked without a hitch. Great progression, great character. I love the singular focus on Drake along with sparse chapters on other viewpoints. Not too pushy, but enough to keep the reader aware of the other players around Drake as well. Style: The humour and flow of the story is great, it really makes for a simple nice easy read. So far nothing that really throws off the pacing of the story ( except the namesake of the novel, hint hint) The way he describes the battle is great as well, just enough details for the readers to visualize and feel like they were Drake, fighting off the same monsters. Story: I've read up to Chapter 27. But so far it's been pretty great, with all the interesting interactions between Drake and people he meet along the way that I felt the need to review this so others can see it. The item descriptions are also hilarious. I always love 'Systems' that flame the owner or user. The way he scuffles with the skills and item drops that he gets is extremely interesting and gets a good laugh out of me all the time. Grammar: No major flaws, and no minor problems either. Nothing broke the flow at which I read, and that's a big plus! Character: Oh Drake you silly boy. I love all his wild-card like antics, and the light-hearted view that he adopts when going through the world. But when it comes down to the nitty gritty, Drake really does deliver the hardwork and focus on goals to overcome or surpass others. Something worthy of admiring in a main character, and it makes the reader want to support him from their hearts. Overall, a great read. I think I'm going to end the review here and keep reading, because it's that fluid of a read. Great job!

*** FIRST 20 CHAPTERS RELEASE *** 01/01/2023 0000 UTC - 20 Chapters will be published in sequence. Hi, I'm the author so naturally I am using the review section to explain the general flow of the story so you can decide if you want to read or not! I personally classify the story as a tragic space opera. It has some grounding in modern day science (i build satellites for my full time job) so I generally know what I'm writing about. However I would position it as a light sci-fi more than hard sci-fi. If you liked stories like Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Forty Millenniums of Cultivation, The Mech Touch, and you specifically want more of the political intrigue and conflict of interests between powerful groups, then this is the space opera for you! In terms of story development, there are definitely twists that is not regular for a webnovel release. I try to avoid as many cliches as possible to provide an alternative reading experience to the generic system novel etc. There is no face-slapping at the very start, but more of a simmering anger that you might develop over the course of reading the story. I feel that is a much better approach to the health of the story. The villians are not simple knockovers that are propped up just for the main character to slam down - they have their own agendas and viewpoints that some of you may agree with ( or at least my test audience agreed with). There are no one-dimensional villians in this story, except for comedic purpose. For power progression, there is no clear ceiling to the power, and is theoretically infinite, but I liken the power increment that the main character finds to be more of 'how do I use the power' rather than 'more power'. Think something along the lines of how energy can't be created. I'm not very good at english, so you may find grammar inconsistent as well as speech patterns slightly changing over time. Schedule: 1 Chapter a Day, 1900 Hrs UTC everyday barring special exceptions. How many chapters have already been written as of 30th December 2022? - 170 chapters, I write one every weekday, two each weekend. Arc 1 and Arc 2 is completed. Will you finish the story? - Of course, until the end of the tragedy.
