I liked it at first but problems started to crop up which ruined it for me. Firstly and most importantly he's constantly under someone with no way resist. Its too uncomfortable. Due to this he's forced into situations under pressure, no real choice, always monitored, secrets revealed etc, (sounds like China lol). And yes, even his transmigrator status and cheat is known early so its already a big taboo line crossed for a reader to stomach. Secondly, its stupidly slow. There are slow novels out there, but this one is more slow imo. This is not only boring, but also makes you wonder where this watered down story is even going or if the author is just going to open inevitable plot holes due to sheer drag. And finally its the lucky issue. This guy should have died so many times idk what to say, but plot armor kicks in to make it that he lives. Where is the wisdom of a mage? Nope its authors plot armor to make him constantly lucky and everyone else a fool. Tasteless stuff to read.
Anyways, good attempt at first but it failed for me as it showed its true colours. Thus 2/5 is my rating. A bit annoyed at myself for wasting so much time reading this lol. There really are better written mage worlds out there.
