BXBX NOVEL Author Review After 150+ s
Author Review After 150+ Chapters
Writing quality: I believe I have a sound sentence construction. And I’m fairly confident in my linguistic skills.
Yes, there might be some stray errors that I couldn’t catch till now, most of them being just some ATD errors. But they won’t hamper your readability.
Writers develop a blind spot for their work. That’s they can’t serve as the best proofreaders for their novels. Therefore, I request the readers to take up that role and point any error they do find so that we can fix them together. A simple comment from you can help us give this novel a professional edge it may be lacking.
Story dev: The novel gives a unique take on an extremely saturated market: MC going back in time. Still, I’ve made sure to not take the beaten path and make this novel only a revenge or harem-centric story. It has those moments, sure. But collectively, it is much more than any of it’s aspects combined.
The storyline is optimally paced. It is neither too fast nor too slow. One might argue that the storyline could be made a lil faster, and normally I’d agree with them. But the extended explanations I’ve included have saved the novel from forming plot holes many times now.
As a reader myself, I know how off-putting it can be to find a mood killer plot hole that throws entire story into a disarray. Therefore, I’ve made sure to fortify the novel-verse with right descriptions depicting relevant world settings, things, people, and more provided at the right time.
Character design: Eren Idril is a pathological liar and cunning manipulator. He prefers to catch his opponents off guard so that he can deal with them with maximum efficiency while ensuring his own interests are not hurt in the process. Certain mishaps have happened to him in his past timeline. And that has changed him to be the kind of person he is even in the current timeline. Therefore, he’d always prioritize his benefits over blindsided revenge. And he’d make his moves in the shadows for the most part to get the things or result he wants.
If you are here for a an overpowered MC who goes through his obstacles like an unstoppable hurricane, you will be disappointed reading this piece. But if you want to watch a cynic, bitter minded, two-faced, and compulsive liar of an MC take on his challenges with absolute prudence and OCDish preparedness, then this book here is your cup of tea.
Updating stability: since the novel has gone premium, readers would be assured of stablized updates. And I’m counting on you guys to influence me into doing mass releases every so often with your gifts, Golden Tickets, and any other form of support you can provide. ?
World Background: the novel world really starts to unfold after the end of volume 1. And expands extensively after chapter 100. VEH takes time to show it’s readers how diverse it can get.
The cons:
1) the start of the novel has it’s info-dump moments. I’ve tried to keep things in control but for a fresh novel to build up it’s lore, info-dumps are unavoidable.
2) the conversational dialogues can be a bit stretched at first. But that’s because I’ve tried to incorporate a lot of world-building information in them.
3) it’s not a har#m story even though Eren is polygamous. That means he’d get intimate with a lot of women without marrying them.
4) the plotline is NOT $mut centric. The R18 scenes and other comic relief moments are only used sporadically to give a breather to readers from reading too much serious stuff all at once.
5) the RPG elements of the story kick after volume one finishes.
6) no OP MC. No instant power-ups. No level-defying abilities for MC to beat characters superior in ranking status than him.
6) there might be a few ATD errors that I’m not aware of or yet to rectify.
7) A few longass author notes. I’ve included them to open a dialogue with my readers while keeping them in loop about some extra information that is relative to the current plotline.
And now the Pros
1) no bs. Our boy doesnt involve himself too much in the life of women he is in bed with. Neither will he fight their battles for them. No offending of young masters just because Eren is dating someone good looking.
2) almost non-existent young master troupes.
3) I’ve tried to balance the grim stuff with situational comic relief moments. I feel that has kept the storyline from becoming bland.
4) The power levels are based on the fusion of RPG elements and cherry-picked cultivation concepts. I’ve done that to avoid unexplainable system powers ups. And the inclusions a few well-known nuances of mana act as a solid reason behind any power-up. (You can read chapter 2 from auxillary volume to know what I’m talking about)
5) no OP protangonist. Eren has to follow the same rules other characters in the novel verse are bound by. His only advantages are his knowledge about the past events he is aware of, his matured way of looking at things, and his beast companion. And he makes use of all them sparsely while keeping his safety in check.
6) no plot armours for MC for the most part. Eren has to deal with the consequences of his actions directly or indirectly.
7) minimal attribute spec sheet dumps. No need to keep on thinking about MC’s and other’s ranking statuses. The BTP(Base Stat Points) would eventually become the only value you need to get a fair idea about characters’ power levels.
8) well-crafted power structure and paths to magic incorporated with character class. Something I’ve invested time and efforts in.
I belive we have something good in store here for all of you. At least wait till chapter 100 before you decide to quit on VEH. Because by then, I’m sure it’ll have you hooked.
