This book has been by far my favorite I have read in 2021. The style is easy to follow it’s interesting how the author combined video game mechanics into the real world.
You have jinwoo sung who is very weak and constantly getting hurt while hunting monsters. Everything changes when he awakens to a new power. Instead of the typical weak character gets insanely strong, you see him get stronger at every page turn and check into his progress. He’s not all powerful and defeats enemies with ease you can see him struggle and follow his thought process as he faces a new challenge. His character development is very believable and is shaped through the ordeals he goes through.
I highly recommend this book to anyone that likes video games, or high fantasy novels.
