The SSS-Rank Church Servant

Personally, I think this is a relatively delicate light novel, with many details worth reading multiple times. In this world, there is the Papacy, the Kingdom of Freedom, and other kingdoms, but the antagonist, Shuoyue, is also present. In terms of governing ideology, its complexity is no less than that of the real world. The author's ideas are well-integrated into this worldview. For different races and regimes, how to obtain their own interests is undoubtedly paramount. For Shuoyue and the Papacy, especially the two popes, their responsibility is to change this world and allow it to develop better. Faced with the indifference and corruption of reality...

First off, a quick prediction! When will the impoverished Papacy finally achieve a comfortable standard of living? (,,·ω·,,) The protagonist is truly invincible! (He starts with a black dragon that can easily defeat him, and later has all sorts of incredibly powerful teammates and opponents—he's never really invincible.) Also, please, I need a mother who supports her son building a harem (and a harem of all races!). Okay, enough rambling. Now, let's get to the proper, standard Western fantasy world: elves, orcs, demons, dragons, dwarves (it seems the dwarves stole the goblin's signature design). While there are fewer unique races, the vampires...

This is one of the books I've followed for quite a while, reading as it's updated. How to put it? It's a breath of fresh air in the world of fantasy novels. This book doesn't have a harem, gender-swap, or features sister-obsessed or brother-complex themes. The author is a working professional with rich experience and unique insights into human relationships. This book doesn't feature a protagonist who's invincible throughout; instead, it follows the protagonist's journey, witnessing his growth as he develops. Many might drop the book because the protagonist isn't currently at his strongest. But as you read on, you'll find yourself deeply drawn into the story. The protagonist's growth...

Could I say that authors who lack the spirit of finishing a book will abandon it halfway through, making it utterly pointless to read?

At first, I thought it was just a typical overpowered protagonist story, but after reading it, I realized the protagonist isn't mindlessly strong; he's strong on top of that strength, yet even stronger. However, what makes this book truly amazing is its military theme. The biggest challenge with military themes is the large cast of characters, and the author's ability to write so many well without any character inconsistencies is remarkable, especially considering he's from a privileged background. Overpowered protagonist, isekai (another world), harem, and military—it's simply incredible!

I liked the protagonist's character design. Rui is incredibly strong, but he's vastly different from the typical novel protagonists who just show off and build harems. Rui is closer to an ordinary person; despite his immense strength, he's still a seventeen-year-old boy. He's experienced far more hardships than most people at such a young age, leading to a certain degree of personality skewness. However, as I read on, I became increasingly upset. First, there's the issue of strength. The book's title, "SSS-Rank," gives first-time readers the illusion that the protagonist possesses invincible power (and the label does indeed mention invincibility). But from the very first volume, the protagonist constantly faces setbacks, almost dying each time...

Here are my thoughts: First, the author's depiction of the fight scenes is excellent, very visual, and the environmental descriptions are also vivid and magnificent. In comparison, the emotional aspects are somewhat lacking, but the other aspects are still much stronger than most novels I've read on SF. This novel doesn't rely on explicit content or harem elements, thus distancing itself from those vulgar novels (though I still hope the author will include more sweet moments). The world-building is very much to my liking, but the fact that the Vatican isn't the villain was quite unexpected; this kind of setting is rare these days (I don't want to be too absolute, I just feel the author...).

First of all, the author's writing is really good. The writing style is occasionally a bit immature, but overall it's very good, definitely top-tier in SF (a Chinese web novel platform). I was quite satisfied with the first volume, but I really didn't understand the part after the battle. At the beginning, the author clearly portrayed the protagonist as a young boy who had experienced a lot, whose mental age far exceeded his outward appearance, using greed and lust to mask his true self. The protagonist's subsequent actions were relatively mature and steady, consistent with the character's image, but the protagonist's actions after the battle with Lan He completely baffled me. First, when the protagonist learned that he might have demon blood, he broke down, directly revealing his weakness...

Let's talk about the protagonist. The author's description is very detailed and realistic. The protagonist is very strong, so strong that he has few rivals. An SSS-level powerhouse, a lofty figure to ordinary people, but I feel the author is portraying him more as an ordinary person. An insignificant figure who would be easily lost in a crowd. Yes, he is strong, but he also once believed he was human. He is neither a saint nor a villain; he is simply a little boy who constantly faces the choice of "killing one for a hundred, or putting a hundred in danger for one." He can fall for an ordinary girl, and he is devastated upon seeing his sister who died with her eyes wide open. Aside from his overwhelming strength...

Why is it that such a high-quality book is getting no readers, while the popular ones are just some obscure or terrible stuff? I feel like this book would get a pretty good rating if it were adapted into an anime.
