So we cut to our protagonist from the past, who is shown to have the ability to essentially danger sense, however he abuses this power (losing the power in the process) gambling and it eventually costs him not only his money but all his relationships in his downward spiral. And after what appears to be his weakest moment the "feelings" come to him in the form of a dream.

Now I'm gonna say it here, call a little BS on this one, these "feelings" are honestly just the MC's memories from the future but are really hazy unless the plot calls for it, I guess they didn't want it to be like other LNs? I don't know why the author decided to do this to begin with, but whatever. It's fine, not even that bad honestly. (Also he gets his power back too) It's what happens afterwards that finally turned my anticipation into dread.

So he gets the memories and then gets scouted out by what is essentially a recruiter for a company-army hybrid from the other world. Using his memories he doesn't become a s*ave but instead gets invited in. hooray.

Also due to the memories he goes from a raging alcoholic to a mostly normal man again.

Anyways when he crosses over to the other world it's revealed that this is but a surprise tutorial level. The invited folk get some advantages that hint that this is a world with video game levels and stats, which is when the warm feeling started fading in me. Then it's revealed that the tutorial level is a killer one! Ahhh!

At the end of the tutorial arc I was left with a few questions, namely why is there a tutorial? The people spectating the tutorial even remark that these are just a bunch of unfit civilians. Of course they are? What country's enlistment program begins with let's kill 80% of the people we just conscripted? Aren't they in a desperate need of manpower? Normally you'd train them or at the very least send them out untrained, at least they might soak up some damage.

Whatever, at least now that that's outta the way we get to go to the cool alien warzone!

nope. Naw. I mean technically yes, they are now on that world, but are contained within what is essentially tutorial 2.0

This arc is even longer than the last one, and involves... training the recruits that managed to survive, and I'd like to point out that a good amount of them survived due to luck rather than fighting or leadership skills. Oh but, instead of training them they just leave them to figure it out for themselves, they just leave the equipment. Why? Don't they want good soldiers? Not to mention all this freedom doesn't lead to good discipline, there's not even a chain of command built up...

Whatever they have to figure it out, the MC gets help because he shows promise. Oh and yes, this is a level based stat based video game world, which I wasn't to thrilled about, but again, could deal with. This arc goes through a good amount of training, and then the MC remembers that other people exist after his recruiter lady reminds him, and he turns their lives from miserable to great with the power of money. Then what I can only describe as pretty generic par for the course OP MC anime filler happens and the arc finally comes to a close.

And we finally get to the other world. And then everyone signs a contract, which is again, kinda odd why do they NEED to sign anything, the MC speculates it's for protection in this hostile world, which makes sense, but then he tries to sign a contract that lets him do whatever he wants. Why does he need a contract to do whatever he wants? I-dunno. And then he gets to go home...

So here we are at his home, oh boy. Great I don't even know or care or will ever care about any of the filler characters on earth, cause they don't matter, but I suppose the MC does. This does raise some more questions I'll ask at the end. And halfway through this rather uninteresting arc I stopped reading. Maybe someday he'll make it to the New Paradise, maybe the world will be really cool and the aliens weird and exciting, but I've lost hope, I think what I envisioned from the start was something this novel didn't set out to achieve, it's not for me.

So let's start talking about other things. The overall plot leaves me confused. Why do the gods or inhabitants of this other world expecting the earthlings they lied and tricked and sometimes ens*aved to risk their lives for the world most of them were stolen from? I assume the s*aves aren't allowed to go home to earth or they'd run back to their families they were snatched from. The tutorial is useless. it literally just kills recruits, the training ground was inefficiently run, and the contracts afterwards seemed like a waste as well. Being from Korea the author (most likely) has served in a military before, so I don't understand were all this is coming from. W h y?

Regardless of the overarching plot there's the MC, he's kinda clever and observant, but isn't very interesting, being strong or smart doesn't translate to entertainment, I mean look at Don Quixote. The most interesting thing about him are his flip-floppy morals, which I guess are a mix of his memory's and his rotten addict self's. I think? Make up your mind dude. When he got to tutorial 2.0 he said goodbye to the friends he made there and focused on training, I was wondering what was going to happen to his old friends, but he just forgets about them. Eventually he gets told to look out for one of them and he finds them all in dire straits, especially the one who lost an arm during the tutorial. Now he cares so much for them, the care is oozing he'll do anything to get the lost arm girl her arm back and help the others out. To be fair this part isn't that bad, to be fair he didn't know about their situation, though it is odd he checked in with some of his other friends but not the 3 that were doing poorly. He's just a boring character honestly, I can't think of one memorable line he has, it's like he has no real presence and is more of an observer.

during the worthless tutorial when the beat down weaker folk team up against the tyrant, good stuff.

called nine eyes that basically tells him when there's danger/opportunities

for example, the ones from the tutorial are more or less discarded once the MC enters paradise (they could appear later idk), but the MC then gets a new batch of side characters.
