7.9/10
“Ah yes, another generic manwha for me to review and tr@sh, I can’t wait,” is probably what many people would think from the synopsis and the cover art aline, however, if we throw away our self-pride and patriotism, it isn’t a bad manwha.
There is always a threshold to never cross as an author incorporating real countries and when reading this, I never once thought it was crossed. In our minds, we have diluted ourselves to think that if any country is powerful that is not the U.S, etc. it was only made for self-righteous patriotism. Yet, in the entire course of this manwha,
...
not one country was depicted as “evil” nor in any negative way. To add to this, Korea, obviously the ethnicity of the author, isn’t strong but rather belittled constantly. The strength of each country is actually pretty balanced contrary to what we’d usually expect, and there aren’t the typical cliches of “America Bad, Korea good and not evil; let’s go Korea.”
The entire story reminds me of a massive epilogue to a typical dungeon outbreak manwha that doesn’t end up challenging God in the end.
Along with this, the art style is reminiscent of a prime “Tomb Raider King” with a mixture of an early "The Tutorial Tower’s Advanced Player’s" plot. At times, the story is based on side characters with the mc popping in here and there, ultimately taking credit to add to his further stacked resume. With this, the progression of said side characters is very well-paced.
Honestly, it’s a very entertaining read if you enjoy a more team focused manwha rather than an edgy solo kid that rolls through everyone, and a story that has the glorious player v player action scenes with some small dashes of monster fights here and there.
