Really excited to see this develop. Interesting smart mc with a great mix of humor and magic. Hoping for a long run.

I really wanted to like this novel, but the poor presentation really detracts to the enjoyment. The main issue is that the novel consistently taunts its readers with vague smart sounding words to describe the power system used by this world, but doesn't actually explain what any of it means! You have to constantly infer what anything does based on how its named and how the MC sometimes show it. It takes so much effort to understand the underlying principles involved I feel like I'm studying for my finals exam. Also, while the MC is supposed to be a smart/scheming character archetype a lot of the things happening in the novel is just him going along with the flow of events and even when he wins or achieves his current goal it does not really leave a satisfying feeling for the reader. It feels more like 'Ah, as expected... moving on.'. Just like we are going through a checklist. Uninspired and does not get the blood boiling. Also based on the title the MC is supposed to do 'unscientific' things and as a running gag some side characters sometimes say what is happening is no scientific as if magic is supposed to be scientific in the first place. Which is cool? But why is it unscientific? We never know because as I first mentioned the power system is never explained. So in effect the reader does not know what is supposed to scientific in the first place! The novel treats itself really seriously and the MC is a flat and boring character. A typical hiding his powers until he can show from time to time personality, but its badly done so even when he does show off it does not really feel like some sort of climax/important event. Overall a complete waste of time, there are dozens of better made mage type stories out there and I wouldn't recommend this unless if you really have nothing else to read.
