I Have a Die of Fate

Why do adventure novels always have the protagonists forming groups? If they were ordinary people, it would be understandable, but why would a protagonist who obviously has cheat codes need to band together? If your cheat codes are powerful, your strength increases daily; if they're less powerful, you still improve by a level every so often. Can the other teammates keep up?

Everything else is passable, except that the spells I drew are all crippled. Burning Hand can't be used with a weapon, Lightning Pull pulls others but also flies me there, and Thunder Wave is so hard to break, it pulls everything. It's basically a bunch of crippled skills, not as practical as the original.

The first three chapters were engaging enough to keep me reading, but the author's name made me physically uncomfortable. I won't add it to my bookshelf, otherwise it feels like a cockroach has entered my bookshelf.

It still features an absurd economic system, which is a common problem in Western fantasy. The rest of the story is quite well-written and worth reading.

Wouldn't it be easier to call it "bottom layer"?

No mole, here's a short joke 🙂

It's well-written, a rare fantasy novel that hasn't fallen apart. The only flaw is the price system; most rewards don't match the life-or-death adventures, especially saving a village. The bounty alone isn't even enough to buy a single piece of equipment in that village. In the latest chapter, the sorcerer, whose presence spans over a hundred chapters and whose casualties are immeasurable, only gets a bounty of 300 gold. What can that amount of money do? Does it even justify the risks? 😅

Honestly, I felt the writing was a bit tedious. Some parts felt like just simple content, accumulating strength, without a clear main plot. Or rather, it wasn't that there was no clear main plot, just a lack of a compelling hook. Although the novel has the goal of going to the White Tower and searching for ancient magic, these plot points weren't very strong.

Why are the data so bad? I feel like the author wrote it really well. 😁
