If someone likes anime then this is a perfect entry into reading webnovels. This novel is almost perfect except for one thing. The amount of filler it has. To be honest the filler is also quite good that some times you don't even notice its filler but the latest arcs almost have 200 chapters or pure filler but to be honest I don't mind wasting my time I like seeing them do fun stuff but if thats not for you then that might be a deal breaker.

This novel is actually one of the best there are. The only reason why it's not 5 stars with me is that the type of story doesnt really resonate with me (this is the only victoria era novel i've read and steam punk and god centered) those are thjngs I typically dislike and there are some arcs that has caused me to take a break. 

it's the kind of novel that doesnt really suck you in - instead its like a mountain to climb, where you'll only appreciate it once youve reached the summit and appreciate the trail the author made. In contrast to a novel that feels like falling into a deeper and deeper hole because of how addicting it is.

This is the best novel I have ever read. It has influenced my life and changed my understanding and perspective. It's not just a novel, it's folklore, its a poem, it's art. 

3 Stars for Ai Translation.

proof? The names changes in the same chapter. Translator could barely make an effort. Purple mansion - Nascent Soul.

also uses ugly words like Prohibitions instead of Arrays..

Also the pets have no names therefore no soul.

And the fight scenes are skippable. Full of info dumps and no choreigraphy nor brilliant plots...

Everything is connected. From the first chapter to the latest. Very smart mc and even smarter enemies. The writing is exciting. Personally the best novel in this site!!

-1 star because ive read 110 chapters and MC still has NO cheats. Like for this type of mc where they know everything that will happen and where everything is they get the cheats before chapter 10. But no this mc doesnt have a single cheat and its been a hundred chapters. The mc sounds cool but hes the worst at increasing his own power.

Another -1 star because:

Author self inserts too much. He will give MC characteristics mid story just to make a joke.

he will say "Hey I have Adhd!" But befor that nothing really said he had ADHD. It was a gen z joke most likely.

also his liking of sweets. He had 30 chapters to introduce the main character but suddenly hes acting like a child in a middle of a gathering gobblin up sweets from the floor? Before that he never ate in the narration btw.

why is this disappointing me? Because the novel was presented as something containing a battle of wits in every step. Yet when ive read it its just jokes for the expense of the story. I wont lie the jokes have made me laugh but it cheapened the story, even more so than the title has...

very contradictive.

good fight scenes but almost dragging
