Reincarnated as a Genius Prodigy of a Prestigious Family (manwha until chapter 39) - summary

Reincarnated as a Genius Prodigy of a Prestigious Family

a very brief summary of chapters 1 to 20, mc reincarnates as a baby of the enemy country. mc bears no ill will but is happy to have been rebornntona loving family. somehow, mc is actually a genius pre-reincarnation but due to his upbringing only got so far. now mc is having a better fanily, mc's genius can go beyond that what he was. from just a swordsman previously, mc after reincarnation is now talented in the spears, magic and more. mc also has a loving family unlike before. mc also got a childhood friend, odd enough as fate is playful, mc's first friend is the daughter of the duke who killed him before his reincarnation. although mc bear no ill will, he just wants to win against the duke, much like to say he lose the first time because he lived a disadvantageous life.

training days: mc training spearmanship from his father; mc is innately good with the swords, since he is a swordsman before reincarnation; mc learns ranger skills as well as assassin techniques from his mother; mc learns magic upto tier two from a magic tower head they rescued.

mc is close to his magic genius sister, not much was show with his summoner genius sister except for the egg for a familiar.

it is also show mc is capable at many fields, magic, summons and different styles of fighting.

chapter 20 sets mc on a journey to the capital. to leave home and go to the capital and enroll to an academy where he will further grow his talent. mc is looking forward to meeting his sister, the duke and his childhood friend, and most importantly the academy.

(somehow, mc keeps mentioning he has hatred to the country he was reincarnated to. things to remember, mc got reincarnated to enemy side of the one he was previously with, yet somehow his actions and how he takes it in seemed different to me as a reader)

chapters 21 to 30, is the reunion with the duke's daughter, mc's childhood friend, and also with the duke. in these chapters the whole admission, entrance exam took place. mc got first place and also became the second of only those who passed for a special exam (autonomous major), where mc could go on to learn not just one specialty but able to freely chose and learn anything/multiple majors. mc really wants to expands his horizon. chapter 30, is about being accepted as an autonomous student by the head of the major. mc passed and got accepted.

chapter 31, hazing for mc as a new student for the top grader dormitory. chapter 32, mc gains new peers from the residence of the top grader dormitory.

chapter 33, start of classes. first subject military science. mc's experience before reincarnation is a big help.

chapter 34, secret in the academy. a garden tour, a mysterious fog, a cemetery found, a lost explorer.

chapter 35, a secret found. explorer deciphers. mc knows the answer.

chapter 36 mc gains knowedge of ancient magic. mc gets a mana circle. normally, mana circle plus mana core equal stronger power but shorter lifespan. mc now has both despite not wanting to have a mana circle. mc feels his power surging more normally. instead of the circle and core contradicting, mc's core and circle are complimenting each other.

mc meets with his childhood friend, the duke's daughter, leila. in the academy there is a sort of filter gate which shows one's magic power in color. red being the highest. mc's elder sister back then got red colors, leila now got a red color. mc got green. green is not on the list of the color that should appear.

chapter 37 magic class, mc meets a senior school bully who has an eye out for mc's magic genius sister. mc appears nonchalant towards the senior. the senior felt disrespected. class starts and the heat will continue after class. the senior got to demonstrate great magic during the class. mc is unimpressed.

chapter 38, magic evaluation. mc's magic can't be measured by the magic device prepared. mc demonstrated an overwhelmingly great prowess with magic. the senior bully got taken aback by mc's demonstration. the bully got another plan installed for mc.

chapter 39, the senior bully is actually part of the student council. after class, mc got an invite to join the student council. mc rejects the offer. leila takes mc to escape from the aggressive invite. the senior bully is actually wanting mc to be part of his lackey? and with mc as his subordinate, the bully can get a recommendation later from the magic dean for him to join any magic towers.

club invitation event, mc and leila is having trip along the booths for the event. clubs are hosting this to fill in more members or to add as a report for their club activity? mc won a treasure map of the academy as one of the prizes from the booth. mc is excited to show it to the explorer student, ernest, that he met.

Regressed Mercenary's Machination (manwha until chapter 20)

Regressed Mercenary's Machination (manwha until chapter 20)

I was planning on holding on to reading this until it got over a hundred but I got not much interesting titles to read so I got out with it.

First time I read this is until after mc saved his little sister from her doom.

The usual medieval regression manwha that is showcasing a mc with knowledge of the future as well his advance combat prowess that requires his body to be as strong as he previously was while also getting the treasures, recognition and other people as his ally that he couldn't get before regressing.

pre-regression, mc is one of the top 7 strongest who unfortunately gets killed by another top 7 strongest.

mc wakes up in tent, at first he was confused since he did not know he went back in time. But after setting his foot on the time he is, mc goes vs his past character and goes to become a better person. due to his infamy, people disregards mc's achievement as exaggeration or lies. only the ones, or some of them, who saw what mc did or how mc did actually changed are ones who changed and believed in mc. this include a few of their knight, their maid and his little sister.

back to the story, mc trained for the upcoming festival, this is also the time mc knows his sister will tragically die. mc has to prevent that.

day of festival, mc goes with his sister. things were going fine until the bodyguards of his sister escorted them to a deserted place. three figures appears. mc already know what will happen. mc takes care of incident. he also got to find out the truth of who set up their familu to ruins. mc saves his sister. no one believes he did. although his sister tries telling others, no ine also believes it. mc is just that infamous.

next day? the festival got cancelled. merchants were in outrage since the festival got stop. mc also realized they are in serious need of money, their land is very mismanaged since they are surrounded by war. barbarians to the north and the monster to the east. suddenly mc got called to the pub. it was his cousin. unknown to most, this is a set up to assassinate mc.

mc answers the call. mc saw his cousin and remembers how this cousin of his bullied mc. now that mc is a regressor, mc deals with his cousin also while gaining money and also appeasing the anger of the people and also continuing the festivity. the assasination plan vs mc was to make a duel of mc and his cousin, and the plan is to accidentally kill mc during the duel. mc is unaware of this and instead took the innitiative. mc asks for compensation for the bullying the cousin did to mc and when the cousin refuse, mc asks for a duel. the duel became a betting event. classic first boss fight and with bets. mc won, the festivities goes on and mc got lots of money.

afterward, while mc is checking his rewards, their maid and his sister mentions that mc won the fight and money all for the sake of his fiancee. mc got surprise that he has one. they mention mc's fiancee, mc then remembers. mc could get more money for his plan to help his country.

mc goes to his fiancee's place and asked for money, all the while indirectly threatening his fiancee and a merchant group of their futurr plan of rebellion/civil war. his fiancee did not take kindly of this. fiance asked her bodyguard to take care of mc. mc won vs the bodyguard, the fiancee has to give in to mc's demand plus extra. before mc leaves their country, the fiancee asks a mercenary group to go kill mc this is to shut mc up.

on the otherhand, mc already realized this and instead of going back to his country, mc met with a legendary retired mercenary. after treating the mercary's daughter's sick and also promising to cure her, the mercenary pledged to become a subordinate to mc. mc gains a new ally. they continue to go home, now they are aware of the mercenaries hunting him since the legendary merc was able to kill one.

on the way home, they got attacked by the hunting mercenaries. the legendary merc single handedly took care of all of them.

back home, mc found out his father have also returned. mc goes to his father's office and asked for permission to pioneer an exploration of the monster forest. mc got denied. unfortunately, mc asking for permission is not something that will stop him.

mc needed people for exploration, mc had their maid hire 200 mercenary while mc will also find a merc group of his own. mc found the merc group and after a few negotiation, mc gains an infamous merc group to aid him.

next day, mc meets with the mercenaries hired by their maid and mc brought along the merc group he got. he starts the expedition. mc's main task is to find the runestone vein that will serve as a profitable asset for their country.

end of chapter 20.

Bad Born Blood (manwha until chapter 19)

Bad Born Blood (manwha)

I feel like I'm reading the bible, book of Genesis. A sci-fi take on Abel and Cain, with Cain as the main POV, then things turn to the story of Adam and Eve and how they get chase out of the Garden of Eden but they have another person with them. This feel. I don't know how, but that's the feel i'm getting at.

Focusing on the plot, the story from chapter 1-19 is about a top notch soldier, best of the best, the perfect tool, gains conciousness. Like how subordinated are ordered and must obey with no question ask. This is how mc is a soldier and the tof his class. As the story continue he is having this thoughts, even still he holds his duty highest. Although this principle of his gets shaken when his sole friend gets involved, he nonetheless, still hold his duty high.

Should I write up a summary for just 1-19, chapters?

early chapters mc, Luka, shows his unwaivering principle to his duty as well his genius when it comes to combat. he is from an orphanage and his determination stem from his want to reach higher place, and the best place for him is in the imperial guard. he has a friend Ilay, a noble, he has his own wild dreams but must still go with the flow of staying and being an imperial guard because that is what his family wants. in class or among their peers/group, they are top 1 and top 2 when it comes to their power rating? and are always the chosen ones to lead.

Ilay has is own dream and bear little loyalty to the empire, this mc openly gets mad at his friend but this is because mc deeply cares for Ilay.

first mission, they are tasked to eliminate an enemy base. during their assualt, mc let a defenseless kid go, this is against their order of total wipe. Ilay saves mc and killed the kid that mc let go. This is very deep because with mc letting the kid go he is going against order and his principle of holding his duty high. mc trust ilay that he would be snitched. then an actual fight broke loose when a mage appears. mc went up against the mage, 1v1. mc would've lose if the mage didn't hesitate when mc got found out he just a child. during the fight with mage or rather when mc let a kid go, mc also realized the enemy base wasn't an actual base but just a settlement.

second mission, scouting mission, mc ilay as well other few trainees. in this mission, mc gets to know of a noble family that would have wanted mc to be taken in as a bethrothed to a young lady of their house. unfortunately, in this mission only mc and ilay survived. an advanced magic soldier appeared and annihalted the scout team saved for mc and ilay. they would've also been killed if their own superior advance soldier didn't interfere. aftermath, only mc and ilay survived, their advance soldier superior were also killed in action. mc also found a truth about later promoted soldier, they became weapons and can no longer be considered living beings. although mc witnessed a strange thing that happened when their superior, already dead, came up and checked on mc. only when mc mentioned their superior being headless did their superior broke down.

mc then received a visit, it is from a young lady, the one being asked for mc to meet. mc rejects it.

mc sought out help from an instructor who specialized in hand to hand akrashan victema, some sort of fighting technique that low criminal use but it was highly effective since the brain is more utilized. mc gets a master who is very unorthodox with his teaching. first practical lesson, underground brawl coliseum. mc won and somehow gained a lackey, a heavily modified brawler.

later on, mc found out that the hand to hand technique mc is learning is completely useless once he gets promoted and acquires a special body. mc quit but his superior want mc to monitor his master and learn more. mc is also promised to be adopted by their supperior officer in exchange. mc came back to learn more from his master.

mc realizes his master is more than what he seemed but mc is let be. later on, his master had mc go on missions to further his learning. mc also gains a new friend, a mechanical engineer.

mc now have a problem, despite his loyalty to the empire, mc is being infected with something else, empathy. mc asks his friend Ilay to help. Empathy is something he must hide as a soldier of the empire. and this can be found when they undergo a psych test. ilay teaches mc a way. mc owes mc. ilay immediately requests something for mc. mc accepts the request.

mc goes to meet a visit with Ilay, it was the noble lady mc rejected. mc once again rejected her. mc also found out it was Ilay who is in love with the noble lady. mc still owes ilay.

fourth mission, they will be dispatch to go against rebels to the empire. one ofnthe said rebels is the family of the noble lady Ilya has his heart with.

mc talked over with ilay of the many thing that will happen if ilay goes against the empire and mc repeated himself that his loyalty is towards the empire and that even if it's his friend, mc will not hesitate. ilay says he will stay true to his duty. with the teachings he got from his master, mc immediately discern the lies in ilay's words.

day of mission, mc is confused in thoughts. he wants to save his friend and the only way for him to save ilay is if mc himself killed the noble lady and this is without ilay seeing it happening. mc is set to bear ilay's hatred just to save his friend.

mission time, mc leads his own platoon with mc taking the lead and leaving everyone behind. mc is maximizing his use of his technique while also rushing to get to the noble lady first. during a short break, mc got praised for his act as a soldier but was criticize for not being a leader. mc knows this amd accepts his folly.

after a hard battle, mc lets his platoon do a clean up while mc go further. mc did not find both ilay and the noble lady. he himself must reach them. on his path forward, mc notices many casualty both from the rebel group and also men from ilay's platoon. mc criticizes ilay for wasting the lives of good soldier in the name of love.

mc finds ilay and few of the nobles, they were all escaping. ilay readies to fight mc. mc readies to go pass ilay and eliminate the noble lady. after mc killed the young lady's parents, mc got taken aback. mc noticed the young lady smiling. mc mentions this to ilay believing that the young lady is deceiving mc. but ilay still fought back. the battlr between two friends would have started if not for the young lady explaining there is a way for all of them to get away.

mc having his thoughts of an option to be saved of his friend's grudge hears the plan. ilay also on it as well. mc agrees. 

during their trek deeper in the installation, ilay explains the situation of the noble lady and that she was relieved of her parents death as she gets freed from the system. the noble lady was supposed to be in arranged marriage and she would have her personality/identity wiped for her marriage partner, fortunately, the empire deemed the inaction of the head of their family to support the empire as treason and just called it a rebellion.

things were going smoothly until they reached the end of their journey deepm it was unfortunate that when they arrived, there were superiors advance soldiers waiting. mc is having a brainstorm of what should happen next until ilay himself shot the noble lady. both mc and ilay got saved and were rewarded as heroes against the rebellion.

afterward, mc had a talk with ilay. mc says ilay is not fit to be a soldier but ilay says he's alreadt in too deep and the only thing for him to go up. ilay plans to have a vacation to his family home to cool off his mind. mc gets a talk with their superior officer, mc got questioned of what happened but mc is ready. after, mc is told to attend an academy as per tradition to send top trainees. mc obliges. mc will be meeting a guide. end of chapter 19.

Surviving the Game as a Barbarian (manwha until Chapter 100) - reader's note

Surviving the Game as a Barbarian

Read until chapter 100. This is a masterpiece. Must re-read this once the manwha finished.

Premise is the mc gets transmigrated to a game world and his class/race is a barbarian.

Slow start (chapter 1-3) but the story is seriously worth reading. There's a sense of comedy here and there but the entirety from 1-100 is a praise-worthy character development plot.

Take note: mc isn't the sole transmigrator. Transmigrators are considered evil, hence called evil spirit, and on sight must be killed by the citizens, npc as the transmigrators called, of the isekai world. Also, the reader gets to see the systems and stats but the characters don't see them, they just simply feel it. There're also more to the world. There are different factions, races, places and lores only lightly explored/mention.

So for a world building and character development, this is seriously a must read. Especially for the chracter development.

Player who Hides his Past (until end of s1, chapter 53) - reader's note

Player who Hides his Past

Read until end of season 1, chapter 53. Please re-read this once this manwha is finished. It is a must to re-read finish this title once it's 

A serious comedy of the mc literally living his chuunibyou life while also being aware he is. The plot armor in this one is simply phenomenal. Take note on the words "serious" and "comedy."

The Necromancer Academy and the Genius Summoner (manwha until chapter 99) - a short synopsis and a review of sort

characters:
Simon F., Mc
Dick/Rick Hayward, first friend of mc in the Keyzen acadamy, part of team 7
Kami Ursula, vampire student, part of team 7
Meylien, ex heiress of the Ivory Tower, leader of team 7
Peer/Feer, first general of mc's undead battalion, skeleton knight?
Erzebeth, second general of mc's undead battalion, undead spider queen?
Neftis, head of the keyzen necromancer academy, she appears like a child as well as her demeneor but is actually older than what she looks


How do I start this?

Mc is living a normal, boonies, country bumpkin life until the owner or head of the keyzen necromancer academy, neftis, invited mc to the academy. mc's parents let mc go to the academy. mc is thrilled.

mc go to the academy where everything seemed all new. mc is really unaware of everything and he sees everything with enthusiast. things that stands out for mc is his enthusiasm for learning and the school life, he really enjoys being at school, and his potential as a genius to learning what the academy has to offer. mc's main drive is to be like his father who uses the undead to help people and build and stuffs. therefore mc decided majored in summonology, a branch/subject in the academy that is the least popular but goes in depth with summonings.

before the academy life start, mc was chosen as the special case student no. 1 as was decided by neftis. it's like a rep leader for students in normal school IrL. this is usually reserved to students who excelled in the entrance exam, IRL. the difference is that, the special case are exempt from the entrance exam and are chosen by neftis. with this the case, mc was expected to be a genius from the start, unfortunately, that's not how it went since, mc all his life was taught to be next in line of their small land and so have little to no knowledge at all of magics except to what he saw from his necromancer father and priest mother. so yeah, at the start mc struggled with things but this didn't stop the fact that mc is actually a genius that a lot of professors noticed. despitr behind with knowledge and know hows, mc's eagerness to learn let himself pushed through.

on one instance, a practice demo had mc pitted against one of the top of the class, despite mc getting at a disadvantage, mc's was able to pull through. mc loses but the professor saw the brilliancy mc had shown. a lot of professors upon noticing mc's brillianct wanted to immidiately take mc as their disciple but mc already have one subject in mind which is summonology.

a lot of school life and world building in the subjects are presented but this seemed like a nice pov to the usual student life. and despite being a manwha as well as mc being a prodigy and the learning methods, this manwha don't follow the level up systems and status windows and such and such. everything that mc does is just prodigy and genius, you know what i'm saying?

mc gets a friend then after because of a requirement, mc gets to have a group who also became his friends. then there are more. mc also got a rival which mc do not actually sees as one, mc just like to go with his student life, he is enjoying school period.

chapter 99 ends with the second mission quests that mc took as part of the academy curriculum. mc saves a small fief island and is granted young kraken skeleton. this will be helpful to him for his summonology practice as well to build up his battalion.

world building that's quite interesting to be mentioned:

1 the factions of the priest and the necromancers, this is very interesting, a good vs evil scenario but not like that. necromancer were not evil in a sense and not much was said about the priests except they are enemies to the necromancers. mc met one already, or two. mc's mother is a priest and another one who fought with mc at first but mc somehow befriended.

2 the traitors, two of this type were mention, first is mc's father, a necromancer who ordered his undead to fight and even kill other necromancer, this is because mc's father fell in love with a priestess, mc's mother. and the next kind of traitor are the necromancers who also practice priest magic of sort but something different, this was the one who attacked mc and kami while they were gathering supplies for their potion for their group practical

3 the 7 battalion commander, mc's father was a former battalion. after mc made a contract with peer, mc became one of the seven battalion commander. who are they and just how influential are they in the world in the story.

4 the ivory tower, serene and mylien are part of this faction and they certainly do hold a name that can be comparable to keyzen.

5 somehow, despite the main focus is on mc and mc as a protagonist, there are a lot of things yet to be known about mc. i'm thinking that mc is actually a transmigrator or something and that mc got to the necromancy world or something. i'm 20% positive about this. not to mention the necromancer blood and priest blood running in mc.

6 the privileges of being a disciple of one of the professors in the keyzen academy, this is very interesting. this is so hardcore that if a professor spots a candidate he can go so far as to hurt the candidate just for him or her to be his or hers.

7 more lessons for summonology and the darkness dynamics. i want to see the skeleton and undead making and the reanimation magic spells.

8 the unpopular opinions vs summonology why is it hated so. 

there are more but this is just a few so far from the hundred chapters.

mc, in game, just fought against a guild. mc came out victorious. mc takes an item from a priest npc. the priest npc curses mc. mc goes to a hidden area and uncovers three treasures. suddenly an error occured. mc gets forcibly logged out.

back to reality, mc just realized he got stabbed. there were goons from an organization that were part of the ones he had a fight with in game. the organizations main aim are the treasure artifacts he just got. in the end, mc gets killed.

transmigration/regression, story starts.

10 or 5 years before the game official release in-game, mc wakes up as the youngest son of count ashton, lord of ashton. ashton will be the first to fall when the game gets officially released. mc aims make such tragedy never happen.

mc immediately trained for the coming of age ceremony. after winning the ceremony tournament, mc goes to his father and asked for permission to attend the knight academy? after months of training and persistent requests, mc finally got the approval.

mc sets out with a hundred men, they aim for the first village meant for adventurers/players, mira. mc gets there and trained his men and soon after made the first ever guild, First Knights. with the knowledge he got from his system mc was able to help his men reach new heights when it comes to their combat skills and more.

while staying in mira, mc also settles the problems from the kidnapping caused by the enemy empire. mc also gains powerful allies that will prove useful in the latter times of the story, they are nikia, a prodigy alchemist and nikki, a prodigy talent but was unable to show it due to sickness. mc helps them. mc also acquires a skill to help with his psychokinesis.

after mira, mc heads to the capital for the academy entrance exam. when he got to the capital they happened to be an infight within the ashton family, the main and branch. mc settles it with the help of his brother jake, heir to the ashton. afterwards mc goes training with jake.

academy entrance exam, mc wanted to just manage to get in but upon hearing the top placer reward, mc had to push himself to come out of top without making himself seemed obviously way stronger. mc gets the top spot. mc gets recognition from some prominent figures from the noble houses and teachers, this also include a fellow student freshman, grandson of the duke templeton. mc gets an additional reward, a meet with the sage grey, a transform ring and recall ring for the sage grey. other rewards for the top placer is access to most part of the library and use of battle simulation in the academy.

mc goes to the library to fill up his skill index, one of the treasure he acquired pre transmigration/regression. at this time in the library, mc also acquires a fairy that will serve as helper for his skill index. afterward, mc also goes to train more with his eldest brother.

sometime later, an oracle is given by the holy church. mc's system also mentioned a big update for the closed beta mc is in. mc gets to stay in the capital while he trained his people. while most of the nobles pay less heed to the oracle.

first update, gates suddenly appear. this isn't just part of the game but is actually a plan devised by the enemy empire.

mc with his first knight guilds is first to respond to the sudden appearance of gates and the dungeon break that occured. the first knights are also the first to close some of the gates.

after hearing of the news of mc's guild getting recognition, the other nobles got mad and envious of mc. first they had the minister of finance stop the first knights from taking on the low level gates. this is trivial to mc as they are already taking on mid level ones.

sometime later during the gates outbreak, mc gets a news of nobles going missing after entering the low level gates. mc already had a suspicion. mc along with some of his troops and the grandson of templeton goes for a rescue mission.

they enter the gate the nobles were last seen, after mc set up a fort to go defense, a group of empire soldier suddenly appear. aftee dealing with the first easy wave, mc and templeton had to step in for the next waves. then the boss fight. two 1v1 duel, templeton vs a giant mace mutant soldier and mc vs no8 commander of the empire. they both won and the rescue mission was a success. mc also received an aura blessing.

after the gates incident, the ceremony for the knights. this is like a tournament initiation for knights or guilds to get recognize. mc's first knights came out on top. on the sidelines, mc gains a new prospect ally, faceless, former leader of wings of freedom, now an informant for the first knights guild. there is really something going on in the internal affairs of the kingdom as empire figures have already infiltrated. two of them is high possibly, the minister of finance, plank, and possibly the head of randall family, a rival to the ashton family and one of the five noble familiea of the empire.

after the knight ceremony two things also happen, mc gets recognized and gets highly praised and regarded by gray president of the tower mage?, and mc gets to battle with the commander of the knights of the kingdom. mc gets recognized during the duel.

the knight commander discusses with his fellow commander thay grey's thought of mc is a cryptic warning. one there is a looming problem going on within and outside the kingdom and the kingdom will soon face a great peril and mc will be one of the heroes to get to decide the outcome of what is to come.

first day of class, mc quickly passed most of his subjects. while waiting for time, instructor navirose finds mc. she invites mc to her special class. but he must first have a decent sword in order to join. mc and friends goes to the smithy. mc gets his order placed. after a few days, mc and friends return. the smithy is under attack by giant golems. mc helps with the defense. mc acquires his sword. mc meets two member of the star order organization, nebula glazier. the same ones, before regression, that are the main baddies. mc beats one of them. mc got defeated by one of the member and vowed to take revenge against mc and his family before escaping. fortunately, instructor navirose appears and stopped the escaping evil doer. as things gets settled, mc asks navirose if he could be there when the two villains gets interrogated.

mc joins the special class, mc found adashen, she's getting bullied. mc had to step u for her. before things get more heated up, instructor navirose stepped in.

few days later, night, interrogation of the villain. mc confirms that the nebula group is really part of the main villains before the regression. mc also found out about the curse placed in him. navirose recommended a curse specialist instructor to help mc.

next day? mc meets the curse specialist. mc found out two things. there is a ten layer curse placed on mc, there's a possibility it is mc's father who placed a curse on him.

next day? night, mc gets a visit from schulfin's father, a duke. mc get's commended for his bravery in the smithy problem. mc find out that the bodyguard of the duke is part of the nebula group. without telling anything, mc gets to confirmed it when the bodyguard attacks mc and schulfin gets to witness it. schulfin killed the bodyguard and vow to have an investigation within their people. same time mc gets to meet navirose and the phileon academy principal. mc reported what happened.

next day, mc talks with the principal of what happened and a reward for mc. mc asked for one thing, the permission to make a club of his own.

mc acquires two people immesiatwly, marya sen and aselle. then braum of the higher year and later on the vampire ophelia.

first club activity, orc hunting. but before that,  mc had aselle and marya sen complete a lot of their subject first. sometime later, mc goes to the principal for an approval of the club's first activity. it immediately got approved.

orc hunting, the club minus ophelia, reached a cliff overlooking the orc encampment. before they could attack an elven priest arrives to stop them. after clearing all suspicions of mc, they went with the elven priest. they went to a hidde temple dedicate to senielle?? the rock/boulder monument god. mc and the elf priest had a talk and after, the priest tells mc that quick answer to mc's curse problem is a bad idea. the priest instead gave mc a herbal tea to help with the curse, this is highly effective. few days after, the group gets better with mana handling and mc gets better with his curse. they part ways with the elf priest. mc's club proceeda with the orc hunt.

during the orc hunt, the group finds an elf. mc takea the elf to the priest. the priest took her in and bid mc farewell. when mc leave, the elf is actually part of the nebula group and is actually looking for the priest to join their cause, else she kills the priest. 

mc regroups with his club members. aselle reports the orcs they fought have weird magic markings on them. mc remembers the similarity with the rock giants in the smithy. suddenly, an explosion occured in the direction of the temple of the elf priest and a large two head ogre appeared. it attack mc's group. braum gets heavily injured. mc asks his members to fall back as he alone will take care of the ogre.

mc beats the ogre and go to the temple. the elf priest is badly beaten. suddenly an unknown woman appears and attack mc. mc blocks. the woman reveals she's the elf he took to the temple. mc and the priest vs the nebula assassin, brigia. the assassin thought her stars blessing would get broken UNTIL mc slahed through it and effectively killing her. the elf priest gave mc a ring as a reward? of some sort. the elf priests gets help going to the rock monument. the elf priest did not die but got assimilated to the rock monument. a ball of rock gets left in place. mc takes the ball of rock back.

back in the academy, schulfin confronts mc. the mid term practical exam is about to happen: an all out free for all for instructor navirose class in a deserted island.

free for all: adashen gets third/second place, mc and schulfin gets tied first. during the ffa, mc vowed to help adashen reach her goal.

after the ffa, navirose recommends mc to meet with a mana specialist to help mc with his just acquired mana.

mc and adashen meets with mana specialist. the mana specialist notices the ring mc got from the priest. the mana specialist asks to get a portion of mana from ring. mc asks he would give what the specialist ask IF adashen will also be helped with her own mana. the specialist accepts the condition.

the mana specialist begins operation on mc. mc's curses attacks the specialist. the mana specialist had to teleport them to the curse specialist to get help. the curse specialist immediately treat the mana specialist, this is with mc's help. when the mana specialist felt better, the curse specialist tells mc that his condition got better. they went back to the mana specialist place and continued the operation. the mana specialist taught mc how to handle his mana better.

afterward, the mana specialist suddenly collapse. they tried helping him but the mana specialist is urgently needing the payment of for the treatment. mc obliged. they help the specialist back to his lab. they find the mana specialist's multiple experiments. mc found the mana specialist's diary. mc learns the situation the specialist is in, the resurrection of his loved one. mc also found a folded paper. mc took it. after things settled down, mc and adashen leaves. then the two part ways.

after mc got alone, mc checks the folded paper. there is a drop of blood in it and nothing else. ophelia, one of his club member appears and tells mc that the blood and paper is a sort of a letter written by a vampire. after returning back to the club house, ophelia helps mc read the letter. the letter contains an invite for the mana specialist to meet and that they have a material that he desperately need. mc had a hunch that the vampire who wrote the letter is part of the nebula group. with ophelia's help, mc manages to tranform into the mana specialist and in the place of the specialist go meet with the vampire.

vampire hideout infiltration, right from the start mc goes vampire hunting. mc meets the boss of the vampire group and found out that they actually want to make the specialist into one of them. after a 1v1 one sided match of mc and the boss, mc proceeds with the vampire slaying. right when the vampire boss is about to get slain, another vampire appears, this one's stronger.

mc tries fighting the new vampire but the match is impossible for him. suddenly, ophelia appears and stop the fighting. ophelia and the strong vampire knows each other. vampire realizes that ophelia holds mc in high regards, the vampire gave mc the blood essense that the mana specialist need. it is also revealed the the strong vampire and the mana specialist knows each other and they are both enemies. the strong vampire sets mc as his new target. just like hisoka and gon, the vampire will wait for the right time to fight him.

mc goes back to the mana specialist and gave him the blood essense. from a far, the strong vampire sees that his once rival enemies is no longer a match for him and so he moves on. ophelia was also there to accompany him. before leaving the strong vampire tells ophelia that she could call on him and he will respond to her call.

a day later? mc meets with schulfin in the club house. mc asks schulfin to join his club. schulfin refuses. mc uses his sister move to the capital to get schulfin to join. schulfin gets successfully recruited to the club.

day of move, mc, aselle and schulfin are to help with the move. meanwhile, with the rumors of monsters getting more active in his hometown, mc suspects the nebula group are the ones to blame. mc let schulfin proceed with the escort of yriel, mc's sister, while mc and aselle will investigate.

they found out a werebeast unit is assigned for the monster investigation. mc and aselle proceed with their own. they found a group of wyvern approaching and attacked it. mc's guess was right, the nebula group are actually the ones idoing this problem. during the fight, the leader of the werebeast appears, the sword saint zangri?

after a bit of a misunderstanding and coming to terms, they team up to find the remaining nebula group. they defeat the leader for the current nebula group operation. zangri rewards mc with whatever he choose. mc asks zangri and his team be an escort to his sister's move to the capital. mc, aselle and zangri's joined forces with schulfin midway to the capital duting the move.

in the new house for yriel, mc, schulfin and yriel are enjoying the new place. suddenly a wild argument happens outside. it turns out to be zangri and navirose, they were almost neck in neck until mc stops the fight. zangri tells that the request of mc gets completed and leave. navirose got mad at mc and asks how he came to meet zangri. after telling the story, navirose tells mc to be wary of zangri and explains the situation of wjat happened in the past. navirose reveals zangri is the leader of the werebeasts that fought against adashen's family. mc then had a hunch regarding zangri and the situation that happened pre regression.

after the talk, navirose asks mc to show her the progress of mc's mana growth as well to show her his sword aura.

66,666 Years: Advent of the Dark Mage (manwha review)

9/10

A great read. The story so far is like a character development of the mc. And mind you, the mc is supposed to be OP who is from the ancient times with god like power BUT he isn't OP. he strong anad all but once he gets to face against villains and other character, mc gets thrown back to reality and that he is needed/required to train more. my first time, i supposed, to see the mc still struggling facing against his father and that is in season 2 when he already got a bunch of powers up.

other than this, the world building is nice as well. being reincarnated after so many millenia's mc is finding truths here and there and is also able to piece things together.

probably there will be side stories after this title end because as i've said earlier the story so far is a character development of mc but there are also characters, side characters, that are left out, but mind you they will appear later on to assist him as promised to each other.

there is also a female lead that gets easily toss as a side character as the mc is solely focus on his goal and that the female lead is not his league, although mc also knows she and him are much like the same.

i'll sum it up as shortly per season.

season 1, character development geared towards magic.
season 2, character development taking on the path of swords, making mc a true magic swordsman.

along this seasons, mc meets friends and allies that will one day may possibly assist him.

one is a dragon who promised to assist mc.
another is a friend, an apostle of pierro, ricky, him I have doubt if they'll be allies in the end or be clashing with others.
another is an old lady that went into the shadow realm who is looking for her son.
another is the third rank swordsmaster in their country.
another is the muscle head that is a friend of his mc's grandfather.
another one is a valkyrie/fairy, benna, who gave her loyalty to mc and had to get separated with mc in order to train.
another is the creature, behemoth, mc conjured back in the early days before his reincarnation.
another is the demon lord, trica, who is actually a close friend to mc before the reincarnation.

there are much more side characters that mc will someday, in the latter chapters, meet. and as i said earlier, these characters will also get a lot of attention as well popularity if they are also given a side story title of their own.

before I forgot to mention, the character development that is most appealing on mc, imo, is his growing/returning sense of humanity. he thrown away his care for other after reincarnation but as the story progress, although this isn't much.. a lot? I don't know the word, but mc is somehow growing or returning back to his humane side or something. mc did mentioned he was betrayed a lot and got left out before his reincarnation which is why he has this cautious towards other and most of the time he has no care of what happen except for himself. But this gets slowly broken when he himself is showing care and empathy. mc himself and on his own took an apprentice with little affinity to magic without much reason other than himself wanting to teach again. mc was also a teacher before he got reincarnated. this is what made mc a beautiful/appealing character. along with his thoughts of being OP but gets beaten by others.

I can't wait for more chapters to come. my last chapter read is chapter 100.

season 3 starts with mc, as the recently appointed master, an archmage, getting his first? dispatch mission from the king. mc gets to be sent to a neighboring country to either help or let things be. this is all for the advantage of their kingdom. the country is governed by corrupt leaders and the rebels are trying to overthrow the kingdom. the rebels is the frontier, a likely ally in the future for mc.

Druid of Seoul Station (manwha review?)

this is a very good read. it's a hunter manwha with status windows, dungeons as portals, classes, getting trapped in dungeons, return as OP and such and such. probably typical of this type of genre but sure enough this is a very good read.

there is also the mixed in sports of hunter vs hunter premise but that just a little part of it. also another is a regression character, that is like in the omniscient readers view point, one of the antagonist has this.

plus points to the character development of the side character as well the staying true to character of mc as the story went on.

mc not wanting to be under a guild or anyone since in the world he got ported to, he's the king and him being protective of his family/pack which is true to him being with wolves in the world he was trapped in.

although, op, his human side sometimes show, not when he gets exhausted in battle but, when he desires to reunite with his friends from the other world. he gets sentimental to the point of being sad for not finding his friend. or to be more reckless and rageful against enemies. this break of character shown is just amazing.

there are probably 4 female lead candidates, only to one did mc showed any interest but not much more. mc's main concerm is either training, building up his territory and searching for friends in the other world.

mc's side kicks are also fun to see grow. each of them is truly remarkable and is alive.

one is a blogger who is like ussop in piece, since he deals with long range attacks and is often in the back. he has his own story and it's quite funny when the suho clan goes on dungeon raiding and he's there filming videos. not to mention his live streams and his live broadcasts.

another is a monk who also have his own circumstance of being a monk and having to take care of kids. one his major character development is when he got bitten by an infected, gets saved by mc, and unlocked a taming ability of somesort, probably more on a vampire thing than zombies. i'm saying this because his summons are zombies, which he tamed and became his underlings, anyone/anything they bit can also become the monk's subordinate. he's also having this certain tendency to be like a zombie. he is hiding this from the rest of the suho clan.

jaesik, the swordsman, the first person mc inspired. he has his story but I say probably not much character development? there is progression of his skills and being good but that's it. probably a lot more will come.

junho, mc's blood brother, he's supposed only to be a porter, a baggage carrier for the clan. unfortunately, mc did not want that. mc made him a hunter. his character is just amazing. sad and amazing. after being in debt, his wife leaves him and his son. he had to pay off his debts. apparently, even back then before the apocalyptic events, he gets often bullied. his only reprieve is through gaming and he usually goes berserk in the game world. when he awakened as a hunter for the first time, junho's class is butcher. he has this tendency to just go psycho when he holds a sword. i know there are a lot of character in other titles that is like this. when they go berserk they just go into frenzy and such and such. fortunately, his control only makes him target enemies and his other team mates sees to it he doesn't go full throttle.

also part of the clan is geuno, son of junho, nephew of mc. and granny sakja.. something.

then there's female lead candidates:

first is blondie.. i personally don't like her, i think? she's a tsundere.

then there's miso kim, the manager type to mc.

then the red haired girl, friend of both miso kim and blondie. she's aggressive in her approach towards mc. not much screen time. mc is chill with her.

then the muscle lady of england. the first woman whom mc gladly took to go dungeon raiding with him. mc is on good terms with her. not much screen time for her as well. if i'm right, mc sees her as a man and not a woman. this is due to physique of this muscle lady.

that's it.

the main purpose in the story are two things: one is to build up his territory, this include actual territory buildimg, tamimg animals for defense as well his use for summoning and beast form, and also training his subordinates; and lastly, to reunite with his friends from the other world.

1-104 setting is earth

update: now in chapter 127, damn the author knows very well how to connect dots.

The Extra's Academy Survival Guide (manwha until chapter 26)

The Extra's Academy Survival Guide

webtoons

this is a fun read. the concept is getting porter to a game world and being one of the minor character. the story is a bit cliche, with mc being one of the minor characters, with the intent of surviving, he goes on to the derail the whole plot of the story all the while wanting the story to keep on track. a bit like the usual regression stories of characters who wants to keep the story line the same but ending up making a whole mess.

how do I tackle this.. there are quite a few female lead, this is a harem story so bear with me.

the story starts with mc becoming the first enemy of the protagonist in the story. being the first enemy/villain in the original story of the gsme, the minor character that mc became gets defeated and lived a life of poverty until the end of the original story.

mc did not want that. mc decides to survive and stay in the academy they are in, all the while being in the forest outskirt of the academy. so mc became some sort of a squatter or something.

also, before mc transmigrated, mc's character is sort of a rude bully but is actually very weak, hence he's the first villain to the protagonist of the story.

i'll mentiom the characters that mc met as it would be easier.

princess penia, a royalty who have the power to discern lies. she's the reason mc gets kicked out of the dormitories. she has this sort of hate towards mc because of how he acted, but that is in the original story. but after mc transmigrated, somehow, she's becoming doubtful of her leadership as well the rumors about mc.

yennekar, the top 1 of the second years, an elementalist. first boss of the plot. she is a quirky and cheery young lady who is somehow interested in mc at the beginning of the story and later on became love, after the boss battle against her. female lead #1. she has elemental spirits that keep checks on mc. not check on power but actually checking up, surveillance, on mc.

lortel, the golden daughter, second boss of the plot. after the battle with yennekar, she showed herself towards mc. she became interested at mc because she thought he would help her get close with yennekar. but after a bit of the progression of the story, her desire to be allied with yennekar shifted towards mc. she saw mc as a potential ally. after the story line with her, lortel became like a tsundere with mc. she fell for mc when mc managed to save her during her story line crisis. mc and lortel have a mutual connection. mc wants supplies from lortel, lortel wants a bit of time with mc. lortel can appear flirty with mc but she herself is also, in fact, nervous when she does her antics. female lead #2

lucy, the magician student prodigy. in the early part of the story, this girl just suddenly appear and kept on staying in the vicinity of mc's small squatted land. mc just let her be. with little interaction, the relationship between her and mc is like a pet cat and an owner. mc is the owner amd lucy is the pet cat that mc can't do anythinf about her except feed her and give her a place to stay. she played a crucial role for mc in the first boss, yennekar. female lead #3? 

that's most of the girls mc is connected with.

story line

mc gets ported to the game world. mc became the hated character. mc gets kicked out of the dorm, but mc is still a student. mc knows what will happen in the original story. mc does not want that. mc plans on surviving and to do that he must first graduate.

mc goes to the forest in the academy area and settled there. mc practiced his magic skills as well his life skill to survive outdoors.

mc meets princess penia. the princess hated mc, the one before the transmigration. mc also did not want to be part of the story line but in order for him to get a good start, mc helps her with her quest. princess penia manages to secure the highest grade for the quest in the class. princess penia change a bit on how she sees mc.

mc meets two others who comes near mc's small squatted land, first yennekar who is a bit interested towards him. the spirits around her immediatrly trusts mc. then lucy, she likes to loiter and sleep in mc's make shift bed.

here there are already two things that got off from the original story. only? yennekar was supposed to acquire the forest's spirit contract. with lucy always staying at mc's place, lucy also got the forest's spirit contract. and the other one is, princess penia was not supposed to get the highest mark in the quest assignment in the class, and she's supposed to get placed in the lower grade batch but instead the princess got into the a team. (at this point, i don't know if an elemental could have multiple contracts with magicians/people so i said also, i assume that yennekar also has a contract with tgr forst spirit)

story continues and classes start after the break. then comes the magic duel. mc sees the match of taylee the original protagonist. he was supposed to win against lucy. unfortunately, with lucy having the forest spirit contract, lucy wins.

next mc vs princess penia. princess penia wanta to beat mc to submission? instead, mc let himself lose and surrendered. mc's thought is towards taylee. princess penia notices this. she was mad at first but seeing how mc is sincere with taylee, this is with her discerning eyes, princess penia let mc be.

mc ran after taylee and tries to support him taylee as well ayla, the childhood friend and partner of taylee, becames aggressive towards mc. at the moment, mc knew that taylee will keep on improving.

next match is lortel against yennekar. yennekar overwhelms lortel. yennekar is having bad feeling for hurting her opponent. she tried seeking a friend towards mc but because mc does not want to be involved with the main characters, mc pushes her off.

after a bit of time, the yennekar boss battle commence. mc gains an ally ziggs, a combat magician. this is thanks to mc saving elka? who is a childhood friend of ziggs.

the battle continue and the allies of good?? won. although mc lead the group, mc asked that he would not be mentioned. and that they should say that it was taylee and princess penia who took the lead.

when everyone left, mc went back to the boss stage and found yennekar who is alone and felt defeated. mc comforted her. after, yennekar gets absolved of her sins with the help of princess penia. after, yennekar grew her interest to love towards mc.

next is the arc for lotrel. the story in this arc is quite.. fast paced and good.. enough?

the arc ends with a few twists here and there. mc saves lotrel and helped her became the head for their merchant company. the character development of lotrel is a bit fast, i think? at first she thought that kindness us due to the fact that the other wants something in return, that is until after what happened. her mindset change when she asked mc what he wanted in exchange for helping and said that it's because that's what he wanted. this became the trigger of lotrel having her interest to blossoming into love?

although, mc did it because he wants the story to progress on how things went in the story line. at this point, no one else knew about mc being a transmigrator.

next is the appearance of mc's family rotsgeral.. something, this is after he got disowned.

the reason for the merchant arc happening is the magic tome the academy have. the academy is having a financial crisis and the tome is the sole thing that would help improve the situation. hence, lotrel's family wants to interfere with the academy. but that is not the whole story.

after lotrel became head of their company, the original buyer of the tome suddenly appear and also wants to get their hand on the tome. this buyer is the head of the rotsgeral.. mc's family.

in the original story that mc knew, the head is a boss much later in the story and he needs the tome to get a power up.

with a lot of things going on, mc collapsed and went to coma for ten days. this is probably a realistic to happen since from day 1 to this, there is not a day for mc to rest. and we're still on chapter 20'ish..

having ties with lotrel, when mc woke up, mc immediately asks lotrel to win the bidding. this is with his help, btw. this in exchange for mc being indebted towards lotrel. lotrel won the bid, the rotgeral faction retreat.

after waking up and getting a bit of his energy back, the first one to greet him is lucy. she's actually the one who's fixing mc's magic something in his body. and then ziggs. he's asked by lotrel to aid mc while they were all gone and because lotrel does not want any other girl being around mc. then yennekar. they all helped mc fixed the minor yet essential problems in his squatted lan.

after the day, yennekar stayed by mc's side, this is her plan to show her devotion towards mc. mc lets her be. having friends is good.

next day, lotrel appears to report what happened. lotrel is still aggressive with her flirts but mc is.. unrequiting it? if unrequiting is even a word, or if that is even what's actually in mc's mind. seeing how mc is still recovering lotrel decides to leave. when lotrel remembers something he should give to mc, lotrel return. lotrel sees yennekar going outside through the cabin house of mc. two FL's war on love..

but that isn't mc's focus. mc's thought is on the letters he got. one from the lotrel, a warning letter for mc to watch out for people out to get him. one from princess penia who wants to talk with mc regarding his family, the rotsgeral  and last one from a professor in the academy, professor glast.

previously, mc got investigated as he's suspected to be the mastermind in the lotrel arc. the professor saw something odd during a recorded video and it's about mc.

i have to stop here, middle of chapter 27, since the story is still updating.

The Knight only Lives Today (manwha until chapter 22)

The Knight only Lives Today (manwha until chapter 22)

Not a new concept but the pacing and the story is simply exhilirating.

Mc is a platoon leader of a misfit squad of the army. The squad members are exceptionally skilled at their own specializations. Mc, however, has no remarkable talent or whatsoever, except for one thing, day reset.

First wall, in the start of the story, a clash of armies happened, mc is in among the front line, unfortunately, he gets killed. mc is in a abyss like place and gets face to face with death, a boat man, probably charon in the greek mythology who accompanies soul to the after life. Mc denies going with the boat man. mc wake up in the barracks, it was, again, the start of the same day. only this time, he recalled of what happened. cycle continues, mc keeps dying. this is sort of like the movie edge of tomorrow. mc gets to find out in and out of whats to happen during the battle except for one thing, there is always this one soldier who kept on killing him. it was the same soldier from the beginning to the Nth! time he came back. It was a wall he couldn't surpass. mc must learn skills.

Mc goes to his platoon member, rem, a barbarian. the training was done for just a day, except, mc came back a lot of time until he mastered beast heart. from this, we can say his day reset capability allowed mc to relive each day over and over again all the while mastering and learning whatever he wants to learn.

finally, mc faces against the wall, the same soldier who killed him over and over again and won. suddenly, a beast man appears, a frog man, mc got almost killed. thankfully, mc was saved by the rest of his crew. mc beat his first wall.

mc got injured in the clash amd was sent to the infirmary, here he met with two others, a leader of anothe squad and a man name cran.

second wall, days goes on until mc realized when one day he wake up it was the same day. mc got assassinated at night. day cycle, night time, mc tries facing the assassin but mc always get caught in surprise.

same scenario, mc sought help from one of his platoon member, mc gets gain detection skill using his hearing. after a few more cycle of die learn repeat, mc finally beat the assassin. mc gets to find out that cran might be a higher up in the army, and the army leader is an elf.

next days, with mc getting the attention of the elf commander from the assassin incident, he gets assigned as a member of a recon team. they are tasked to scout for enemies.

the recon team leader belittles mc, they get ambushed and got annahilated. things kept on going with mc learning of the best positions and strats in order to complete their mission or survive. finally when mc learned a lot of things amd set it to motion, mc took the lead of the recon team. instead of going back, mc lead the team to the enemy base, wrecked havoc and escape. mc saw his next wall, a platoon leader of the enemy army, unfortunately, the fight is put off. the recon team's objective was to scout and return. it left a bitter taste to mc for not being able to surpass the wall bit at least they managed to survive.

things have calmed in the barracks with the base being stationed closer to the enemy lines. mc decides to train, one of mc's squad member sees mc's determination and decide to teach mc swordsmanship. mc accepts the teaching, unfortunately, mc could get train more since they were all asked to go mobilize. another clash of army to happen.

on the moment of the battle, the two army faced each other. suddenly, a dark fog envelop the battle field. rem immediately know it was sorcery. mc sees this as an opportunity. mc will deliberately get killed, all the while learning tactics and strategy for the clash. and when mc dies and gets returned, mc will continue learning swordsmanship. it kept on going and going for about years and years until mc finally learned swordsmanship. on one instance of mc's death, mc met with the boat man and told how mc was foolish enough to crave for death.

when mc finally learn of what to do, mc asks rem about sorcery to which mc realized how to disperse the blinding fog. mc also gets told of a technique. unfortunately, mc needs real battle experience to learm this.

mc once again went to the battlefield with the intent of finishing the day, mc's main targets are the flags which the sorceror used to make the fogs. mc had to do it over and over again. mc also learn about the technique but it was pointless. until finally mc found the next wall.

the final flag that mc haven't yet reach is withi distance. mc is suddenly stopped by a knight. the knight recognizes mc but due to mc's multiple time of reset, mc did not remember the knight. before mc gets killed, mc realizes it was the knight, the platoon leader, that he faced but couldn't surpass during the recon scout mission. mc smiles, finally having reach the wall and the opportunity, once again to surpass it.

after a few cycle of die learn repeat, mc comes to realize and learn the technique his squad member trying to teach mc. it's like the observation haki in one piece, sole point of focus. it's a technique that can only be learned in the condition of having face death.

finally, the moment arrived when mc can finish the day. mc reports the sorcery of the enemy army to the army commander. mc's advice fell? on deaf ears. mc orders the people around him to stand guard during the fog, they obeyed. mc takes rem and the swordsman tutor in his platoon to accompany him. the squad members will take aggro from the rest of the opposing army while mc goes for the main objective, not the flag but the wall he wants to surpass.

Magic Maker (manga until chapter 11)

Magic Maker (manga until chapter 11)

This is an axed/cancelled manga, or so what I heard. This manga is pretty interesting. The concept is nice.

The mc, while in the normal world, does a ritual to grant him magic powers. It is his lifelong dream to be able to use magic. Unfortunately, said ritual caused his death, or what was said. But the story goes on.

Mc gets isekai'd to another world. Mc is born to a lesser noble family. He has a hard working father, a loving mother and an adorable sister.

When mc woke up, mc realizes he is in another world. He became happy that at last, he got isekai'd and that he's able to wield magic in the future. Unfortunately this was thwarted when, after 3 years, mc inquires about magic to his parents. To his surprise, magic does not exist in this isekai world. Mc got his dream shattered.

Mc's sister, Mary/mari, notices this sudden paleness and sadness of mc. Mari led mc to a not far off river. When they got there, they notice strange light orbs going upwards. Mc realizes that magic does exists in this isekai world but it hasn't been discovered yet and so no progress with magic has yet been made. Mc's dream ignites once more. From time to time, the two siblings would go to the river. mc would investigate the light orbs whilr mari would help mc out. They also befriended Rose, daughter of the village elder.

After a while, they realize that the light orbs are coming from the fishes. Upon thorough invvestigation, the light orbs happen when two fishes falls in love, mating/courting cycle. Mc tries this out with his sister (yes, there is a bit of suggestive incestuous going on but please continue on). Suddenly, mc glowed. Somehow mc is able to use magic but it is at a very primitive/early stages.

When the sibling ask their father about the glow and the light orbs, unfortunately, the father couldn't see it. The children assumed the adults cannot see it and only the children can.

Story goes on, mc continues his magic research while Mari continues her sword training.

One day, they received news that goblins were sighted in their territory. The adult men formed a party to subjugate the demonic beast. With mc's knowledge and planning, mc got the one left in the village, children, women and less able men to stay in their barricaded house.

While they wait for raid to end, suddenly a goblin appear in the vicinity of their home. Due to a natural cause, the goblin breached the home. The life of the people inside were in danger. Mari tried to face the goblin but she was outmatched. Whem the goblin was about to deal a blow on Mari, their mother shielded her. Their mother took the brunt of the hit. Mari was in a state of panic. Without much thought mc lunged at the goblin. When Mc got closed, mc realized the goblin is emanating magic. Using his own magic power, mc was able to subjugate the goblin.

But the worse isn't over yet. Mari is in a panic state and their mother is in critical condition. Mc takes the lead. He calmed Mari down and ordered everyone who was able to help with their mother. With mc's basic knowledge with first aid, they managed to save their mother.

Next day, mc talked with his father about magic. The father now believes in mc. The father decides to help with mc's magic research. Mari on the other hand is in a state of.. mental exhaustion? after believing herself to be strong, only to be defeated and failing to protect her family. Mari tireless continues her path to sword. This causes worry among all of them in the household.

Thanks to Rose's help, mc was able to progress his magic research. After, mc had a warm family talk with Mari. This led to Mari going back to her cheerful self.

Mc's next stage in his magic research is infusing magic with element. First it was fire, mc was able to manipulate flame using his magic. But in order to fully create fire magic, mc needed a spark/igniter for it to work.

Next, mc decided to learn lightning magic. They had a help from their uncle?, a friend of their father who is a blacksmith. They were able to harvest thunder ores thanks to the insulator mc thought of. The thunder ores were used to help mc progress with lightning magic. At the same time, they were able to build two things, magiv lamps that lights up thanks to the thunder ores and the magic gloves that enabled mc to use fire and lightning magic withour using crude igniter and such.

Add to this the complex magic that mc discovered thanks to Mari. When infusing one element of magic to another element of magic a certain effect could happen. An explosion occured when Mari, unknowingly used air magic, while mc launch a fire magic.

end of chapter 11.

Things not mentioned:

Mc and mari aren't blood related?

Mari dearly loves his brother to the point that she would want to marry him. Mc does as well but due to it being a taboo, couldn't reciprocate. Instead, they promised each other to be alwayd together and they would not marry anyone else.

Although they became a trio, mc, mari and rose, Rose wasn't able to continue coming along with them because of her family being a head of a village.

Rose once wants mc to propose to her but mc wasn't able to becaude they ran out of time. at that moment, rose was called back to the village. After rose left, mari appear, and this is when the second previous paragraph happened.

Both Mari and Rose can use magic.

In the english translation, it was said magic is a new word, but they also talked about magical beast. Probably an error. They should'nt have said magical beast, instead demonic beast.

---

Aside the incestuous affair, the concept is very refreshing. The beginning of magic. Unfortunately this manga got cancelled, or so what I heard.

Silent Warrior (manwha until chapter 24)

Silent Warrior

this is a bit of an intense manwha compared to the title I recently read. this is from webtoon

1-24

mc launches an attack against the demon lord. mc succeeds to beat waves of demons. When mc finally enters the demon lord's chamber, he finds out the demon lord's physical body is dead BUT the demon lord have now become a spirit. something mc is supposed ineffective against. mc is a physical type warrior.

mc disappears.. or so that's how the story goes. mc appears near a place where otherworld people (probably earth, the normal earth) gets summoned. the otherworld people gets put to a trial after getting summoned.

mc hides his identity. apparently, mc became known as the world greatest enemy or something. mc joins the trial. mc gets put in the white square, somehow a block where other summoned otherworlders are. the other blocks are blue.. something something.

in the white block there are three factions? the chosen ones, otherworlders that are specifically summoned since they have soul reincarnation connection to the fantasy world they are in; the normal summons, they are the normal ones; and lastly the gang people, they are lead by a gangster guy. with a bit of meddling, mc gets to join the chosen faction.

trials goes on and on, the main villain for this arc is supposed the leader of the chosen ones who gets turned to a werewolf thanks to the guide they were given. and also a hidden villain controlling the scene, the guide mage of the chosen one's werewolf.

point to remember, mc joins the trial in order to increase his magic stats, which in turn learns to be a wizard. wizard class is the only thing that could beat the demon lord in spirit forn.

after a quests, and training, mc manages to increase his stats, gain artifacts, and a subclass, alchemist

the trial at chapter 20-ish, ends withe werewolf chosen one dead but gets zombified by the mage guide. mc used this as an advantage to defeat the higher ups' plan to wipeout the 'white square: block.

white square win, things became settled. mc disposes one of the mage guide. mc gets to a hiddem quest given by a returnee from the future, that is also from the white square block. mc succeeds the hidden quest, the father of the dead werewolf chosen one comes to take revenge on mc. mc is the one who killed the werewolf chosen one. mc kills the father.

after, mc and the returnee takes a rest. the returnee explains to mc that she is a returnee from the future and she wants to get the hidden quest of one of the heroes in order to defeat a great evil. mc asks who this great evil she spoke of. the returnee tells mc it was the world greatest enemy, mc himself. but she didn't know about mc's real identity. mc is taken aback at the information he just got. mc vows to himself he won't become that. he goes to proceed to learn magic.

things not mentioned earlier:

mc has an ongoing quest from his subclass hidden alchemy quest, which is the alchemy book that is also the daughter of the alchemist hero, the eighth hero.

the post trial hidden quest went to is from one of the seven heroes, a wizard. in the hidden quest, it was revealed mc is looking for an item to revive the dead. mc wants to bring his dead daughter back.

there is a so called, extinction curse, probably different to everyone, mc's daughter died from mc. mc got afflicted by it, this in turned made mc's magic stat negative before the summon trials.

mc's main weapon is a hammer that can increase or decrease in size.

mc's first subclass, is cook. mc treats alchemy, his second subclass, just like cooking. even though he jusy recently acquired the alchemy subclass, mc is somehow proficient with alchemy.

after the trial, after mc fought against one of the mage guide, mc gained a loyal servant, a slave hunter.

Paranoid Mage (manwha until chapter 44)

Paranoid Mage webtoon until chapter 44

A nice action fantasy manwha.

Story starts with mc being alone after attending the funeral of his last known close relative, his mother. Mc goes on with his life. Until one fateful day, whilr on a session of workout in a gym, mysterious fellows attacked the place. As you can see, mc is something special, he can sense magic and the gym instructor he's friends with is actually a dragon. So back to the story, the gym gets attacked. Mc tries rescuing one of the gym goers, mc unintentionally activated his power, portal/spatial magic. A magic officer of GAR (.. g.. arcane.. r something, like a government agency for magical stuffs), happen to find mc. Although mc has been living as a normal human, mundane, the officer immediately suspect mc and took him to custody.

After the interrogation and learning that mc is innocent, they prepare mc to get drafted to GAR. mage are believed to be taught magic when they were still young, mc on the other hand is already an adult when he find out he is a mage. During the draft talks, mc prioritizes his freedom something the GAR cannot give to mc. GAR does want balance and peace? or something. But mc didn't want to get held back and bound. Mc manages to escapes. mc becames a rogue mage, something GAR targets.

rogue mages, mages that went off radar from GAR
dragon folks
Fae, faerie and magical folks
Vampires, the blood suckers
Shifters, the werewolves and the like,
Mundane, the normal non magical human beings.

Mc takes in a fake ID and goes to a far off country town, unknown to mc, it's full of shifters, werewolves or something. But they were on good terms with mc. one day, news of killing happen and the targets were the mundane, the normal people. a conflict happen between the vampires and the shifters in the town. mc gets drag in the mess when a friend shifter gets kidnapped. the shifter friend asks for mc's help. mc helps them out of good faith. the vampires gets eliminated.

few days after, since the vampire and shifter are supposed to be on a peaceful term, the GAR had to step in to manage the situation. GAR agents went to the country town to investigate. thinking that they could be suspecting of mc and might take him, mc flees the country town without anyonw knowing.

the shifters thinking that mc might hold it as a debt they owe to mc, they tracked mc and collaborated with mc. mc wants nothing to with anyone else, he just want to be not bound to anything, but at the same time, mc needs to learn magic. with a promise of getting help for mc with what he needs, mc sets out to defeat the vampire in the shifters' territories. mc does the task, mc gets an intel agent, lucy, and materials to help mc with magic.

while learning magic, mc also befriended a healer mage. mc faked as a teacher all the while learning the basics with the mage. how it happened is just.. magic.

unfortunately, the mage mc befriended is a grand daughter of a prestigious mage, and somehow, mc taught the healer a forbidden magic, which mc just, on a whim, thought about. the mage gets in trouble for learning the forbidden magic but thanks to her grand parent, she got it easy. unfortunately, mc gets taken in custody of GAR when mc decides to meet with the grand daughter and the GAR are already lying in wait for mc.

somehow with mc's magic and.. knowledge with magic (he's a rookie with magic but he's like a prodigy, he just makes things happen), mc escapes.

as mc run away from the GAR, mc finds mundane being chased by fae folks. mc helps the mundane and in the process killes some of the fae folks. these fae folks are royalties. mc gets targetted by some fae kings.

mc goes out of the country and to a portal to another world. mc goes to the dragon folks' world. mc meets with his gym instructor friend who told mc that no kne but dragons are allowed in the dragon world and that the best place for him is the vampire world.

mc goes to the vampire world. mc learns it not a good place for him. after getting materials from the vampire world, mc return back to earth. somehow, GAR peole caught up with mc. mc goes on the run and managed to escape. unfortunately, during the process, some mundanes were killed due to a mage from GAR going full force.

mc goes to america to make try making a base and have the materials he got made to equipments. mc phone lucy to help him out. somehow, the two are having a cute moment during their convo. mc need lucy's help with getting funds, lucy will get commissioned for help. lucy tells mc that the shifter leader will help him out.

mc makes teleport equipments and sold to the shifters, something that is supposed to be off radar, since it's known only one person could make them and she's an archmage in GAR?

unfortunately, trouble is brewing in the GAR. lucy is an employee of GAR, and during the investigation and cases of mc, GAR does a sweep of people related to the case. Lucy manages to get off suspicion but the agents in charge of the investigation still have Lucy in the list. lucy is unaware of this.

in a call, lucy tells mc of what happened in the GAR. lucy also informed mc of the mundane he helped from the fae folks, the mundanes are being interrogated in a US branch. mc have the heroic sense of wanting to save the mundane, mc asks lucy for help. lucy connects mc to a fae folk who is on bad terms with the GAR as well as other fae folks.

mc managed to have a deal with the fae folk. mc will help the mundane in GAR's custody and the fae folk will take them in. the fae folk will take credit? for the mischief.

I stopped here. chapter 44

mc is a learning prodigy when it comes to magic and tactics. he has a sense of duty to help the mundanes but most of all those in need.

things not mentioned earlier:

mc's known parents weren't his actual parents but his grand parents. mc's mother left mc to them and mc's father is still unknown, the dragon gym instructor knows of the story of how mc's mother leave, returned pregnant with mc, and once again leave, leaving mc behind. mc's grand parents are goos people and the reason as to why mc has this sense of heroic duty.

the forbidden magic mc taught to the healer mage is reverse healing. instead of healing and fixing, the magic concentrate the healing magic which in turn burst the insides of the target.

mordite materials are something items that could hurt other worldly beings and this is what could be used to make magic ite.s, this is what mc gathered in the vampire world. mc made teleporters from the gathered materials. this he sold the shifters.

teleporters are made only by the spatial archmage of the GAR. same spatial archmage is looking for mc. as mentioned, mc is able to create a teleporter.

mc's knowledge about the teleporter is due to the help of the healer mage. she let mc see the teleporter her father used. in a short moment, mc is able to understand the teleporter.

teleporter/home bound is different to mc's portal/spatial magic. teleporter is like a warp point that can warp a person or a group of people tp a designated place. mc's portal can go just about anywhere as long as it is within mc's reach.

mc's spatial magic, along with his learning and training (all self taught), allows mc to see things around him. like a byakkugan i  naruto. mc can manage his portal sizes. with this set up, mc can assassinate others with surprises attacks.

the archmage for spatial magic desperately wants mc. The GAR is hunting mc as a rogue mage. the fae folks is hunting mc for the killed royalties. the vampires detests mc.

lucy is a quirky gal that likes to flirt with mc. when mc respond to it, lucy is having romantic thoughts with mc. during the sweep for a mole in the GAR, lucy managed to get off suspicious by not mentioning mc's name but by telling she does collab work, or something, with her lover. this interrogation is under a truth serum spell. although the officer in charge of the interrogation still suspect lucy.

My School Life Pretending To Be a Worthless Person (manwha until chapter 66)

My School Life Pretending To Be a Worthless Person

Have to stop at chapter 66, it goes more beyond that but things just went off from the premise/title before the guerilla training arc.

Mc, jinsung, has this dilemma and sort of a problem. To start of the world building is amazing, there are no hunter or monsters but a simple alternate world where magic, skills, abilities and techniques are real and they're called Ideya. Ideya is the manifestation of this thins and they are divided in ranks. s/ss or above is highest until f the lowest. And there is also combat ability that is like a physical capability of the person, this also gets divided in rank, same as ideya. Aside this, there is a hierarchichal prejudice when it comes to rankings. your social value is proportionate to your ranking. if your ideya and combat ability is low, society thinks lowly of you. But do not fret, ideya and combat ability can increase with training.

Back to the story, mc has this problem and he has to hide his true ideya rank. In turn, he gets treated poorly by his colleagues. Although mc sometimes let himself loose, it's for him to escape bullying.

mc meets with ahnseyoung, a person just like mc with "weak" ideya but simply improved himself to get the title of ace in their school. during a match mc and his team went up against ahnseyoung. ahnseyoung comes out rude at mc but somehow mc showed a bit of his power. ahnseyoung becomes interested in mc, ahnseyoung and mc are both male btw. ahnseyoung sees mc as a prospect training buddy.

mc then meets seyun, the possessor of the goblin ideya, something like a renowned hereditary ability. seyun shows interest towards mc and sees him as husband candidate. seyun is female.

bank robbery arc, mc, seyun along with there classmate is sent to off school activity and that is guard duty to a bank. things are going smoothly until robbers/terrorist arrives. mc hides. seyun faces the terrorist. seyun gets overwhelmed from the terrorist lead. witg things going bad, mc manages to lure the terrorist to a 1v1 match. mc overwhelms the terrorist. unfortunately, the terrorist lead manages to escape thanks to one of mc's school bully. mc in his true ideya form, ran after the school bully but he was stopped by seyun.

let's talk about mc's ideya. mc's ideya is ranked f, a normal dagger. nothing much, just a dagger. but that isn't just mc's ideya. mc has a second ideya, rank s, murder. mc changes personality to a psychotic bloodlust filled murderer and his target will always be the closest human. thanks yo the murder ideya, mc's combat ability reaches s rank as well. unfortunately, mc does not have control of himself and will indiscriminately go to a murderspree, whether foe or ally. will only stop if mc's bloodlust gets satiated or gets knocked out.

mc wakes up, and was fearful for seyun, although mc is in frenzy, mc remembers everything that happened. fortunately seyun is fine. mc vows to get strong. mc goes to ahnseyoung for training.

guerilla arc, mc forms a bond with the team given to him. the team is named, zombie horde, as they are lowest of the low ranks but through their will, they keep pushing through despite how rough up they become through training. also in this arc, the clear discrimination is shown, from the instructors and even the principal of the school. in the final showdown, the trench battle, the zombie horde showcased their growth from their low rank and their loyalty to mc. mc won the battle despite being called fake and even the reporter that covered the event was even said to have been bribe to make mc look good despite not being true.

next is the terrorist arc, after the guerilla training, a new character appears, the husband candidate picked by seyun's family for her, petch. seyun does not like petch. they all misunderstood mc. they thought it was mc who is seduced seyun. in fact, it was seyun who was taking the initiative towards mc. and mc is going along. petch as well seyun's family belittle's mc, this is thanks to the fact that mc is still f rank and not much info is still revealed about him to many. mc and petch had a first spar. petch rudely belittle mc. mc reveals a bit of his power. petch is taken aback to what he witness but still, he is not satisfied with mc being seyun's choice of husband to be.

meanwhile, certain terrorist group is brewing their act. first there was a giant bear that is believe to be an ideya, that wrecked havoc. south korea's greatest, li xinwin.. something managed to faced off against it.

back to the school, mc had another confrontation with petch. mc goes almost all out. mc understood why petch is the chosen candidate for seyun. petch has a plunderer ideya, seyun's family does not like the armor ideya of seyun and that's why they plan on having petch take the hereditary goblin ideya of seyun.

a bit of self though regarding seyun's ideya. her ideya is the goblin spirit swordsmanship. but instead of going all offensive, seyun does not like doing harm  so instead of this, seyun focuses on the defensive capability of her ideya. or something like that.

back to the round 2 of mc vs petch. mc goes almost all out, mc wins. after the match, petch reveals to mc that seyun's family wants to speak with mc. mc has no say to this. mc went and spoke with the family head of seyun. they still think mc is not a good match to mc. mc does not focus on denying it, instead, mc tells them off and that seyun should be able to choose her path.

this is again in my understanding, seyun's family wants her to become an all offensive goblin ideya user, this is despite the fact that seyun's swordsmanship and combat ability subpar. add to this that seyun, is more like a pacifist or something? she does not like hurting others, although she seemed that way since that is how her upbringing is.

seyun appears, the family head orders mc to never meet seyun again and that seyun will be doing evening patrols with petch, this is something because of their family is a military, government something? that protects the country. mc denies this order and even say he'll go on patrol with seyun.

night patrol happen, nothing much happen. the terrorist group, peste/pestillence something continues to brew their plan.

this terrorist group, peste, are also the ones behind the bank robbery arc.

one night, mc takes a day off for the night duty. seyun and petch are left to go on patrol. petch is going to confess to seyun? but it was stop when an alert came telling that the terrorist group launch their plan. in the middle of the city, a giant winged lion is wrecking havoc. the two goes to respond. meanwhile, mc is in the club of ahnseyoung, they are traning along with the zombie horde. suddenly they also got the alert of the terror attack. they are supposed to handle crowd control of the civilian. mc had a bad feeling, ashnseyoun let mc go fimd seyun.

meanwhile, seyun's family who are the first to respond to the scene gets defeated. seyun's aunt, the predecessor to the goblin ideya gets killed. the family head was about to get killed when seyun and petch arrives and managed to rescue him. unfortunately, the winged lion is just too overpowered. seyun is in a dazed state because of what happened to her family, petch is strong but not enough. seyun, regains composure. she face the winged lion, it wasn't enough. petch takes the ideya of seyun's family head, the imagination creation ideya, it's not enough. when they thought all hope is lost, mc suddenly appears.

seyun gets mad at mc for appearing and asks mc to runaway. mc reject the idea. mc faces the winged lion. mc immediately goes to phase 2. it wasn't enough. mc goes to phase 3 not enough. mc goes phase 4. (i think that's what happened? 3-4 phases? or maybe just 3) when mc goes full berserk, the winged lion became a pin cushion. at this point mc's murder ideya, rose from s rank to ss rank. mc is able to conjure mythical stuffs for him to use. runfortunately, somehow, the murder ideya became some sort of not just bloodlust but also became sadistic. the human priority is also high but still, if provoke, he will go to the nearest target, and the one that provoked mc is the winged lion.

after a bit of flashback to mc's trauma and a bit of the battle scene, mc manages to pin the winged lion to the ground and made a pin cushion out of it from the mythic items mc conjured. the lion is alive but severely beaten and is unable to move. suddenly, rescue/response teams appears. one of them is school doctor who mc respects well. under the effect of the rank ss murder, mc kills the other rescuer and gave the school doctor traumatic memory. the school doctor is alive after this arc btw :) the wing lion died and disappeared at this point btw. seyun appears, mc also gave her a traumatic memory, she's also alive after the arc.

i'm saying traumatic because is just totally psychotic at this point and just very.. mental.

other rescue/response team arrived, mc is still in that rank ss murder state. mc was about to go murderspree when seyun stabs mc at the back.

forgot to mention, the rank ss murder ideya of mc, is something like a double edge mental state. mc wants to kill but he also wants to kill and this paradox of a mental state frees him of something holding him back? or something. so seyun back stabbing mc is very much what he also what he wanted.

fortunately, after seyun stabbed mc, mc was fine and returned to his normal state. unfortunately, what had just happened suddenly came back to mc. mentioned earlier, although mc loses control of himself, he remembers everything that happened. mc goes into a shock.

mc wakes up on a hospital bed. seyun is beside him. before the two could talk more. li xuwin, south korea strongest, briefs mc of what happened.  seyun had to leave first. mc is called a disaster class person of the country but despite this he is recognized as a hero. they all thanked mc for what he did.

i stopped here.. so, the title just stopped from pretending as a worthless person and go to clearing my name or something.. the story is nice and all btw :)

stopped at chapter 66, there are still 90 chapters but i think im good here.
