Have you ever wished you exactly knew how to accomplish your dreams? Not feeling the slightest doubt anymore? Being aware at any time how every choice, action and decision of yours affects your future?

That’s what happened to Jake Wilderth, a procrastinating young man without ambition. When a mysterious silver spaceship, popping out from nowhere, delivered to each Earthling a bracelet containing an AI introducing itself as the Oracle, their destiny changed.

From a boring uneventful life Jake began to strive for greatness, treading his Path over the dead bodies of many.

What a blessing it would have been if he was the only one profiting of such a gift! But when everyone became equal to face the future, he soon realized no gift comes for free… Collapse

    I seriously thought this novel ended a long time ago. Surprised it's still going, had to be repeating at this point? Anyways, did he ever collect another Oracle cube?

    Не вижу ничего плохого во всех испытаниях, кроме начала пятого. Начала "взрослой игры" совершенно не ощущается. Автор будто забыл добавить соль, хотя многими главами ранее пытался подготовить нас к впадению реки в мёртвое море.

    I kept reading up to 1050 because someone told me it gets better

    I'll save you some time it doesn't


    #readmore#


    4th ordeal was okay pretty nice ride started out pretty slow imo about 80 chapters could've been removed and it wouldn't have affected anything

    it's one of my biggest gripes with the novel, that 40% to 70% of the writing in this is just so boring and redundant that you can just skim read and not lose out

    author goes on tagants where he just decides to describe a random background character that becomes obsolete in the next 5 chapters


    so many interesting side characters get introduced to never be brought back up again and you think hey I'll see them again later nope so alot of side plots never get explored. author never finishes

    also the way author powerscales the Mc makes it seem like he's borderline op and then next ordeal he scales him back down to an avg nincompoop

    in the 5th ordeal he become just an avg person and he has to use this liquid to regain his power like no I don't want to read 300 more chapters of that

    1058 is such a boring part in this novel and if I do say say everything up to 919 was very boring. author needed 15 chapters to explain why x = y and why z is erm actually

    and then after that is all said and done mc goes to do a side quest with his master and basically kills his whole team with corruption and then also get locked in a space time thingy for 4 years

    like is this not peak writing!

    ah and don't get me started on that 20 chapter back to back info dumps on the faction catchup my gramps f**KS faster than this author writes

    at this point chatgpt is already a better author and should replace this guy


    also not even getting to the scummy thing he does to keep this novel running. he keeps his patron active and upload one chapter a month to keep getting subs and it's some of the worst writing you've ever seen in history. comparable to mine...

    man I'm glad I'm not the only one that is tired of how repetitive/drawn out this story is

    if it was only 1 arc sure it's fine almost every novel has a couple of blemishes
    but by the gods every chapter is 1.5k words with atleast a 6/10 of it just describing stuff

    not only does this have a very diluted plot of Mc getting cucked every 10 or so chapters then gets a very anti climatic rematch that leads to him winning an ordeal just to be an ant in his next ordeal

    and plus with all the r*** sub plots just makes it even more unbearable to read

    the way he treats/writes women characters you can tell he hasn't met one irl.


    cool interesting premise with some of the worse plot devices I've seen the story never improves neither does the writing level

    i would say after 800 chapter that it's a shame there isn't more but honestly I think author should just retire lowkry

      Can you write about rest of sub r*** plots?
      I stopped reading when he tried to save sister of guy who was in faction and they were traveling behind them and guy was literally r***** her for days and they just stood there and followed them...

    Last update was 7 months ago, sad to see Arkinslinze hasn’t made any changes to the update frequency, this could have been up there with the greats.

    I hope he’s doing well though

    The story is good, but it hasn't gotten far enough yet and the update pace is glacial. So I don't feel it's worth reading right now.

    An extremely engaging story ruined by the continuous emergence of sh*t shows.
    All I wish for is that Mc regresses back to the start and change his journey for the better.

    Dropped around 1000.

        Short answer: The state of the book around 1000 mark is simply dreadful.

        Medium answer with heavy spoiler (I take it that you wanted to know how bad the situation gets and wouldn't mind spoilers, if I misunderstood, do not read any further and just read the long answer):


        Long answer without much spoiler:
        First, I might have to explain what I meant by sh*t shows:
        Every instance where things become way too chaotic for no reason or mainly due to Mc's lack of understanding, awareness or refusal to learn.
        For example, after every single ordeal, Mc goes on an adventure and very quickly, he finds himself in turmoil.

        If I go out of my house after an exam and a bird lets out an artillery shot which lands on my head... and this happens for three consecutive exams... You best believe I am either firing shots back or I am wearing a helmet and trying to be sneaky about going out or just remain at home for sometime.
        And Mc never seems to realize the dangers of going out despite his superior intellectual capacity. I can live with it happening a couple of times but when things get too hectic after all that, I'm just out.

        Hopefully, I managed to give you the answer you needed. If not, hit me up in the dms and Imma try my best.
        Thank you for reading!
