This manga is low key genius: The combination of the always stale dungeon master trope combined with a half-committed main character makes the story’s directive so much more enjoyable and suspenseful than the traditional take on the “hand-held dungeon master who gets supported by the dragon waifu fmc” in every chapter.

Surprisingly, this manga’s plot is great — of course, there are some ridiculously “poorly-written” developments here and there, but it tends to add to the manga’s atmosphere and enjoyment by not taking itself too seriously at times; in other words, it adds a bit of necessary comedy to the story. However, don’t be fooled, ... the plot is not one-dimensional, as the author laid out potential plot points beyond the first arc/opening chapters.

The plot of this manga was treated with eons of more care and seriousness than the actual characters — barring the mc, most of the characters have been plot-driven — one goal/purpose — and others are only there to add some comedy/useless drama or chemistry within the mc’s interactions. Though it’s not bad or annoying to read, it is a step down in writing.

Do not be fooled by your usual expectations of a trashy dungeon master manga with a dragon waifu, as this one takes itself a bit more seriously, and it has been written with a small care for the future, making this manga leagues ahead of its peers.
