Actually worth reading. It does justice to the power fantasy trope and explains the power structure well. I also read ss for it's power structure and that was good too but it does not compare to this honestly or a certain other novel that overhypes the fact that their power system is just tarrot cards (im dead).

Wasted potential honestly. There should have been more focus on mc early arc as a soldier but such a shame that it didn't go that route. Characters are also pretty generic... Like his family hates him just for the sake of hating and some side chars are goody two shoes while others have 0 self-evaluation. Worst killer of any pacing and plots are academy arcs tho imo.
