I have read the whole volume 1 and honestly the story is too good. I am not the one to write reviews but felt the need to do so because some people just keep calling this story boring and whatnot, I am not criticizing them or anything, since everyone has their opinion.

BUT This story is not boring at all. The plot keeps getting better and better. Some people said that the MC was boring but actually he is NOT. The MC Cale wants to live a slacker life but problems... more>> keep coming and coming.

Each and every character in this story is amazing, it has excellent woman representation where they are NOT made love interest but actually have a character and their own self. They are not made to fall in love with the MC.

The MC is not exactly OP and edgy, he uses his brain for things which makes his character even more interesting. And in his tasks, his friends help them too. And the part I love is that every character have their own story and it gives them depth so they don't feel shallow and boring and unnecessary.

And Lastly the translation is also great. And can be understood easily. Thank you Translators.

Lastly I would like to say People should read this excellent novel. <<less

Absolutely fantastic story. Starts a bit slow and has a lot of set-up, but it really pays off. Amazing fights. The politics are decently intricate, and the protagonist is a fascinating character. He's also an unreliable narrator, so you have to infer some things, but it only adds to the story. The character relationships are first class, and there are several important characters who get really good character growth. The magic system is very well developed, and the final villain is intimidating and genuinely feels difficult to defeat. There's a... more>> fair bit of comedy as well. I'd highly recommend it. <<less

This novel is really just the same old thing over and over for hundreds of chapters. You have an OP MC with a stacked cast of unmemorable talent (except for the dragon and prince) who are all ready to fight to death for him. Fight, awards, everyone loves him is solely the three things happening in this story (and in that order). Rinse, repeat.

If I were to very slowly read this, I think I could enjoy it and catch up eventually without ever feeling like I was forcing myself. However, if you read more than like 10 chapters a day you do realize it's literally the same plot in every arc. I'm going to revert back to sticking with just the manwha so I can just see this once a week in pictures.

But still, if you are into shounen/seinen and like this genre of transmitigation OP leveling, you will fall in love with this story. TOCF is a staple web novel of this genre. If you fall under this umbrella, my advice is that you just read slowly and savor it. I couldn't. But I am not very attached to this genre so I will declare my defeat after almost 300 chapters.

This is going to be my first review here, haha!

Anyway, I really enjoy reading this novel! Must admit, the first chapters are a bit slow, but as I progress, things gets heated up. The development of each character are very good and heart touching... Though there are some character that I wish would have more screen time (ehemLockehem), but it doesn't mean it puts the score down since I realise that this novel puts every background information after quite some chapters (e.g. is MC's past and the reason he's acting... more>> as so).

This novel has a light atmosphere to it despite having a lot of foreshadowing that makes you think twice, still light imo. Great for those who wants to read in their free time.

Do give it a try. Make sure to hold on for a bit since as I said, the first few chapters are pretty slow, but if you do, it's worth it. <<less

THIS NOVEL is AMAZING.

When I start this wn I dont have high exceptation because of title but;

Unlike the title the consept is so good (fast and smooth). In the beginer chapters soft and a bit slow (if you compere last chapters).

Plots are good and when MC proceed new plot you can't find any odds.

If you ask if it has any bad points I think outhor can't use some characters in final chapters (maybe because the plot proceed too fast)

I really enjoy this type of novel where it revolves around family and friends instead of love interests. The plot is interesting and really hook you up the more you read it, the MC is intelligent and kind (I know a lot of people prefer cold-hearted MC but Cale is the calm and collected MC that makes the best choice for his people so I prefer him than other MC who only knows killing as the only option) Im a sucker for suicidal MC to be honest.

The characters all have... more>> character development moments and the children are so cute and loving that you just want to protect the family forever. Though its true that the story drags on but because there are so many hidden details, the pace is not too rushed or prolonged but it just makes it more interesting. The readers at some point would realize there are details that they have missed and then be in awe at how these little pieces affect the plot. A 5 star because this novel is enjoyable to me and it makes me laugh as well as cry at the same time. <<less

its so hard to describe my feelings for this novel. To be honest, I'm a manga/manhua reader but I got hooked up with the manhwa so I searched for the novel. Its my first time testing my patience for reading novel and I didnt regret it. Highly Recommended. Sad that there's no hard copy release books.

I stumbled upon the manhwa and I was honestly not that much entertained by it. Now, now, who would've thought that I'll be one of those people who'll root for Cale to attain his slacker life. I love this novel as much as I love ORV. And just like ORV, this novel holds a special place in my heart.

All the characters are well-written, the plot is well-executed. The only issue it seems repetitive at some points and does contain some filler chapters.

I love it definitely one of the the top 5 for the novel I read went on a marathon read for 2 days straight and didn't regret it at all

Dont hesitate to read this masterpiece, you will not regret it. It has a manhwa already try reading that too. I dont have anything to write a review here anymore because other people already said it in their reviews so I will only leave this comment here.....

THIS IS SUPER DUPER HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Okay, I loose interest in books so easily that just the fact that I actually read 700 freaking chapters is surprising to me as well. The MC was the only reason I read this at first because it seemed like your usual transmigration novel but god when the plot is revealed it is mind blowing.
Definitely one of my favourites, the earlier chapters and the fight scenes are so fun to re read and I’ve formed an unhealthy attraction to many thousand year old dragons ^^

You, be warned.

This novel is too... addicting. I love Cale and everyone. And I am so obsessed with this since the start of pandemic. I LOVE THIS WAAAAAAAH SO GOOD T.T

I was happy to find a shounen type novel with no harem (although they can all technically be his harem lmao). Cale is your typical overpowered protagonist, except they show him becoming stronger so he is a lot more likeable than an OP from the beginning. He is interesting to read also, and I liked all the dynamics in this novel. The worldbuilding is also fun to read, which it has to be since it is a very long novel.

However, there is NO ROMANCE. Like, at all. Plus, Cale, despite... more>> observing people around him changing, still believes in the novel's characterization of them, like most MCs, mistrusting of most people till the very end. Perhaps that will change later on. I would like it if he develops bonds with people other than his pets. The no romance part really kills it for me, but I have high hopes on the fanfictions for this novel. There is no romance with MC or ANYONE in the novel as of now. Pretty unrealistic for novels, but okay. Let's see how it goes. <<less

1. First of all, I really really like this story.
2. Sure, this story build up really fast so for those who want slow world building, this may not be it for u. Just before 100 chapter, about three to four major event has already happen so you can guess how fast this story progress.
3. And yes this story has a lot of repetiveness but after you get past of it, you will be interested in the mysteries. Just try and read it until 150-ish chapter. Trust me you will really like it after that as this progress really quick after that.
4. This is so dry.I really dont know how to write a review😂 but I absolutely really really recommend you to try and read this story.

I just want to say that I do not agree with what Primeval Cha said in his review that the MC contradicts himself, saying that the MC wants to slack but does the opposite. No.

Just no.

(Kinda spoiler but whatever)

The MC does/did those things for the world, where he's gonna live his slacker life, because if he does nothing, the world would be in CHAOS (Remember, there is WAR between the kingdoms, where kingdoms are trying to conquer other kingdoms, and there's White Star, trying to conquer the world).... more>> And if the world is in chaos, he will NOT be able to live a slacker life. So, the MC does/did those things for him to have a slacker life in PEACE in the future. Thank you. <<less

I freaking love this novel. It has one of my favourite collection of characters. Cale is a lovely balance of extremely smart and s*upid. All the children are cinnamon roles. All the people around Cale actually have character development to various extents. There is no romance thus far and no harems. I love that they didnt try to make every female Cale encountered fall in love with him, even though he did this and that for them. The story is beautifully fleshed out, there is alot of unexpected depth and... more>> it doesn't just simply fall into the 'transmigrator who knows what will happen' category. This is one of the few LN I am highly invested in, having binge read over 100 chapters in a day so it is definitely worth the read. I finished the manwha first then jumped to the LN cuz I have no patience, and the manwha gives a great portrayal of the characters, such that you have an idea what they look like when you read <<less

English not my first language so it is hard to me to Express myself how I loove love this story. Already reread for nth time (lost count).

Just please try to read it. Its fun!

We have big family here, we have granpas, kittens, young dragon, kind wolves, and many other things. The development is good. For me the best character development is the young dragon, Raon.

Will add some more notes/reviews someday.

I like this very much! The more you read, the more mysterious the story and keep you curious about whats next. The beginning of the chapter MC will always tell you about the original story, but the MC didn't read all of the original story book. So after the timeline where the last he read came, it will become more mysterious, because MC has to make decision base on information he has alone than the books, and the mystery will come one by one and makes you nervous and curious... more>> about what comes next.

English not my main language, so I hope you get what I'm trying to tell you. :) <<less

It's a mind-blowing novel. This novel will never let your interest to die down. Though there maybe some parts which you would find to be annoying but overall, it is a great novel. It takes you through lot of emotions like sad, funny, heroic, cuteness, hot-bloodedness and various others but one thing is for sure that it's a fun read. So do give it a try.
