For me, this novel went from perfect 5/5 to a perfect zero. The novel instantly became my favorite when he got betrayed at the beginning then he becomes this dark anti-hero character who doesn't trust anyone and a maniac whose thirst for experience to level up never settles because his class is shield type, he doesn't have any offensive attacks, thus he finds an unique way to farm the monsters to get stronger like never have seen before in any other novels, and it just gets even better when our MC was forced to dissolve the s*ave contract with the heroine which results him unlock curse series (Imagine Gohan going SSJ2 during the cell saga). So far, we are off to a great start it had everything that I needed from a novel a perfect balance between hope and despair.
-But just like most of the novel it couldn't keep up with that level. After MC got his revenge on the people who betrayed him at the start of the novel it became a running gag of cliche and tedious f*ckfest, that dark atmosphere and all that cruel and despair build-up disappeared into thin air. It became your generic reincarnation novel, it hit new low for me when the spear guy too UNLOCKED CURSE SERIES power because the same woman who betrayed MC, betrayed him too. I thought it was gonna be something unique to our MC and how that spear guy just easily unlocked it, he didn't face the kind of humiliation our MC faced nor he was forced into a corner thinking he is some kind of creep or pe*vert. I couldn't take it after that and I dropped it right there and then! I still don't get why this novel is so overrated, but I still enjoyed the first 100 chapters for what it's worth.
