   The first book boasts a vast world-building and scope, complete with a world map—it's truly enormous. A minor drawback is that the protagonist is somewhat similar to a spoiled genius (possessing the characteristics of a chosen one). I haven't read the second book in detail, but it's a very good book with detailed content and sound logic. However, it's so detailed that it's difficult to understand without close reading. The third book seems somewhat similar to Western fantasy novels like "The Main God Space," focusing on a unified dynasty's power struggle in the early stages. The protagonist's talents and other abilities are quite unparalleled. It's worth checking out; whether you like it or not is up to you to decide.

    Reader note

    The general style is somewhere between Konosuba and Mushoku, a humorous, not overly serious, semi-satisfying anime/manga style. It's also like traditional literature disguised as web novels. 7.9/10, Delicious Stone, the pacing is a bit slow in the early stages, but it can reach 8.5 In the middle. The plot is quite good, with some slightly illogical parts (but still within reason); the narrative writing needs improvement, the dialogue scenes are decent, and the action scenes are very intense and detailed. — Over eight volumes, it paves the way for Ebony's return to humanity, unfolding the cruelty and vibrancy of this world layer by layer. The narrative focus never deviates from "humanity." The battle descriptions are solid, and the author demonstrates an awareness of physical deduction. The logic of Hua's domain and Nara's Dark Moon magic leveling the royal city are clearly defined by rules and causal chains. In volume eight, Ebony's disruption of Gaius's rhythm by "shortening single pauses to gain more frequent activations" is a truly thoughtful design. However, the writing style is slightly lacking. —The protagonist, Xia Wumu, isn't an overpowered protagonist from the start; his power grows alongside a resurgence of humanity: from viewing humanity as a mere task to risking his life for his companions, wife, and children in the eighth volume, the transformation is traceable. The female lead? Yumu Peng isn't just a pretty face; she has dreams, talent, and resilience. Their relationship develops naturally through repeated battles together, rather than being forced. The supporting characters are equally compelling: Stan's transformation from adventurer to avenger, the destruction of the Dragon Claw Heroes, Harry's sacrifice and the secret of the immortals—each subplot carries weight. The villains aren't stereotypical either. Emperor Gaius's tyranny is underpinned by his twisted logic of "unifying the four lands and expelling foreign races," Al Kikuma's loyalty is purely pragmatic, and Nor IV's battlefield command is commendable. This "different stances rather than simple evil" adds depth to the conflict. A reflection on war runs throughout: the abduction of women by the deformed beastmen, the empire's enslavement and exclusion of demi-humans, the infiltration of local communities by the six desires, and the displacement of civilians. The lizard-like demi-human's line, "Either way, I'm going to die; even if my wife escapes, she'll still die," perfectly encapsulates the desperate situation of the weak. — Of course, the work also has room for improvement. Some everyday scenes feel somewhat loose, and the motivations of a few supporting characters are explained rather hastily. But overall, it's a work with a solid world-building, believable characters, and a profound core message.
