I really don't understand why this is getting such low reviews. It's a unique spin on the whole "dungeons invade earth" trope that Manhwa writers really seem to like. The main complaint I see is the MC's treatment of his employees, which I do agree is a bit uncalled for, but if you actually read a bit further, you can see he really does care about them. The harsh treatment is a result of his experiences with his comrades' betrayal before his regression, and it is evident in his personality. Another reason for his behaivior is that he cannot show any weakness to his relics. ... I also really like the fact that the depiction of the world's hierarchy is probably the most accurate of any dungeon manhwa. People are not going to line up into neat little guilds and share the responsibility, most likely, there will be a large monopoly by one group with others struggling to take hold and eventually getting swallowed up by said monopoly. The worldbuilding is very good, the comedy is also very enjoyable, and the plot points make a decent amount of sense. Overall, if you are going to read this, please make sure to actually read and not just blindly follow the reviews.

Tomb Raider King offers an uniteresting aproach to the power system of webtoons with its new relics which are basicly items with peronalities, the reggresor part of it starts to fall off after a while and the story drags on for too long.
The art is decent and its not a bad read. The characters were well written all with their uniqe personalities but were often forgotten or just used as comic relief,.It has been a few months since i have read this so my memory is not up to date but the villans were kinda bland to be honest and the often resuferd again after ... a while witouth any obvius power up just beacues i guess the story needed to continue?

Art: Standard art, more saturated than 2015 romantic comedy art, there's nothing new or special about the style, it's just the standard manhwa art.

Story: kind of a big mess, it's practically a piece of abstract modern art. The way the author wrote this is criminal, things just suddenly happen for no reason, it changes focus a lot and none of the changes are smooth, but in the story there is also the biggest flaw in this manhwa, the endless and unsufferable nothingness of the plot, everything is dragged out too much almost like it was testing my willpower to continue, there's just so much unnecessary ... stuff there, it's absolutely possible to cut around 150 of the chapters easily without changing one bit of the main plot.

Characters: no relic is interesting character wise, there is the fire madman, the 3 dogs and around 7000 objects that speak, of all of them only the crow, the rope and the worm have a some sort of a personality, maybe I'm even forcing a little saying that the rope is interesting, because it's only character trait is being affixed to the protagonist, and nothing else, but it is what it is, the worm is the only comic relief that is even remotely decent in the manhwa, dont't get me wrong, the worm's comedy scenes are never funny, but i didn't feel any pain while reading through them, the crow is the only interesting character in the story, it has a concrete objective, a backstory, a personality, is it just another animal that turns into a hot woman? Yes, but again, it is what it is, at least she has a certain level of development. I'm not going to talk about any antagonist/villain because they are all completely disposable, and are turned into shitty comic relief whenever possible to take away all of the possible seriousness that the manhwa could have, and all for 3 scenes of Adam Saddler levels of comedy.

Fights: I honestly think that none of the 1v1s were good, there are some tedious fights that hurt your soul, even when the gods start beating the living shit out of each other, it's boring because it has no impact. There is also the "Madara Effect" in this manhwa, the protagonist is so stupidly strong that when he loses a fight It's just because the author pulled something out of his anal cavities to provide some challenge, but it's too forced and very poorly done, all the fights look like turn-based RPG combat, hit, hit, hit, say something stupid, hit and repeat.

Romance: non-existent, which is actually unbelievable. In 412 chapters of story, literally the size of Berserk, the author was simply unable to make the romantic progress have even a slim of smoothness, the progress of the romance is: they meet, and literally a post-sex scene, alone, with no change in attitude, neither a change on they're relationship, nothing. It also doesn't help that the main heroine is as interesting as a doorframe, she's literally just there to be the dumbass that the protagonist sometimes has sex with.

Positive points of the manga: very rarely it does have a good fight or an slightly interesting dialogue sequence, maybe some okay comedy too but i don't really remember seeing any.

Final considerations: none.

Definitely not worth the time to read, dear God.
Bad and on top of that a massive waste of time 3/10.
