Performance. Fantastic. Story… holy pain. So many issues and glaring plot points that just either get solved by plot armor or “I used my rage and bam I’m just stronger now”. The forced fulcrum of the daughters vow along with the ambiguous “I can’t spend 500k energy bc _____” to “I can use energy randomly to experiment” was so annoying. Not only that but we the reader want the MC to be the star of the show, not outdone by some AI companion or side character. He had access to 8k foblins and a spell to increase his health by literally 30k+ but no. He has a daughter that gets rewarded for disobeying. He knows that if he takes it easy he will most likely get more time, but instead pushes for everything as fast as possible just because.
Then the author takes away the few things that make crafting/summoning cool with the Luck attribute. Instead replaces it with “use an item!” Just because he didn’t want to deal with the chance that his army is full of interesting or fun creatures. Then has that special ability used twice and that’s it. The random cool upgrades that made you think ooo! All gone. No new armor, no new weapons, a black hole ability that is okay but is used to full effect a single time.
I could go on for a VERY long time. In every chapter there was something that made me literally pause and go what??? I’m so glad that I’m finished with this series. I will never be listening to this again.
