Holy fck first 4 chapters are the laziest writing ever see in a manga.
I know they reeling up a lot of audiences from "yeah, what know, bully" payback moment, but I can't stop reading it.
“He’s going to beat the demon lord with his own power and wits”
Yeah, okay, sure that’s what happened. He didn’t just completely advance himself with a bogus power up from a book that gave him the knowledge about everything as well as where the most powerful items were
He got the world cheater's handbook and he is doing what anyone else with a cheat item will do. Faff about not doing what they originally planned on doing because faffing about is more fun.
So come back like in... All the chapters for an actual plot or just leave. either way, he will be faffing about.
I'm moderately certain that whoever originally wrote that description (presumably the Japanese author) is a fucking moron. There is no reality where a hand-me down info-god cheat is "your own power and wits".
PLEASE SOMEONE TRANSLATE THE LIGHT-NOVEL!
Furthermore the "Hero" party is so going to f**k-up, while Magnus is just f**king around and saving the world.
just read available today. put this post on ch1 but wanted to be seen and discussed:
i think the merchant was not a normal one. the book said that the greater Gods (plural) could not interfere directly. this does not mean some god who doesn't like this Triant deity (the one of the yandere priestess) could not slip the book to our MC using one of his priests in the form of a merchant. Like the Greek stories one god is always trying to outdo and embarrass another
Despite the cliche situations, it seems like the type of thing that would be really interesting as an LN since in that medium it could go into depth about abilities/skills and do better world building. A shame that it seems to be a manga original series because much of the developments either move too quickly or just feel too shallow. I really wish the author didn't push romance down our throats and instead was better at some dialogue in certain situations. If the romance was given more time to develop it would be nicer, but I guess getting right to the point isn't a bad thing either.
Well, chapter 6 has me really worried. Is this going to turn into "I am OP as fuck. Watch me boogie"? Him killing monsters left and right while a big tittied girl is hanging onto his arm and squirming, came close to parody levels!
