It’s alright, there’s nothing glaringly bad and I do enjoy the mcs grindset, but I feel there’s this weird disconnect between what we’re told and shown. Time and time again we’re told mc can’t take on everything himself and he feels almost like he’s been placed there to mentor people but I don’t feel that has been adequately portrayed. Every issue has been solved pretty handily by mc alone and the skills he creates are so esoteric almost no can learn them. Not to mention his growth rate far outpaces his teammates by orders of magnitude so he has to sacrifice his own resources so that they can still be weaker than a fraction of his abilities. The story and mc grow just too fast for the “I can’t be a lone wolf” angle. Another thing I think can be improved is that the system seems pretty random and underutilized. Like why does he have a fear inducing skill but can’t have punching, why hasn’t he even tried to make a skill about drawing, why have a dart throwing skill when it’s never actually been used. Not to mention all these skills have an artificial cap on daily exp, so they are slow to grow and we’ve been stuck with essentially the exact same skills for 500 chapters with very few additions. Side tangent, I HATE foodie characters. To get things started, scenes about food are all boring, they always have a bland description that has no meaning and are completely unimportant to the story around them, they feel disruptive. So first reason I hate foodies is that they make most of the scenes they’re in about food. And the aecond reason i hate them is because they are written almost like addicts, they prioritize food over everything else, they almost feel like theyd sell their closest friends for a slice of cake, and when they ate denied food they throw a tantrum. They have no restraint, theyre greedy, theyre childish. They ruin 99% of the scenes they ate in.

I feel mc is definitely underutilizing his talents, like why hasn’t he created a technique for his son, why hasn’t he comprehended more on his own, and for godsakes why can he talk to animals but can’t listen to them. Overall I do like the story, I really do, but there are a bunch of small things that don’t really make it bad or unenjoyable just are the teensiest bit confusing and frustrating. Btw the realm names are awful. It’s really confusing that you break through from the 1st level of the realm to perfection then to great perfection and finally onto peak. I guess that’s probably a mistranslation from completion and great completion like most other stories and at least it’s consistent but still, not a fan.

Everything is so scattered and random. The characterization, the story, heck even the setting jumps and jerks you around. It feels like the author had a million different ideas and is trying to force them all into one finished project. The only consistent thing is that everyone worships the ground mc walks on, everything else feels impermanent an to be honest unimportant. There is nothing to be invested in cus the next paragraph has moved on to something completely different
