The Eldrim Cards by lifesketcher

Somone knows what we don't get chapters?

Our sect of great balance still prevails here!

Is there anyone who can recommend novels with this kind of style? A novel with a slow and serious plot, solid world-building (a world that makes logical sense), strong character development (not hollow characters created just to suck off the MC), a non-cliched story (I’m sick of transmigration, reincarnation, and system tropes), and an MC who isn’t a perfectionist (the MC actually develops as a character and doesn’t have to be overpowered).

I’ve already read several novels with a similar vibe, including:
Kill the Sun, Kingdoms Bloodline, Lord of Mysteries, and this novel, The Eldrim Cards.

MASTERPIECE

i very much want to read this novel but too slow progression isn't my taste

Well done Mr. Author and thank you. Keep up the good work.

É uma novel muito boa, boa mesmo. Mas extremamente carregada, tem muita coisa acontecendo em todo capítulo. Sempre parece que alguma informação muito importante foi largada em alguma entrelinha. Alguns acham que as interações entre os personagens são forçadas, eu não concordo, mas tem um quê de estranhismo mesmo. O mundo é muito violento aqui, tudo é mortal ou traiçoeiro, tem inimigos espalhados até no banheiro. As coisas são sempre, sempre misteriosas e nada é simples. Eu acho uma novel bem humorada, mesmo sendo 80% drama e suspense. As lutas são bem descritas, mas como não sou falante da língua e leio tudo pelo tradutor acabo perdendo alguns detalhes e fica meio sem sentido as vezes, mas nada que já não esteja acostumado.
E o mais " triste" é a velocidade da trama. O avanço do protagonista é lento demais se você só olhar a contagem de capítulos, ainda mais que tem momento onde 100 capítulos são só 1 mês no mundo do prota se for rápido. Não seria um problema se tivesse 1k ou mais de capítulos, mas fazer o que né. Meu conselho é aguardar para quando estiver mais adiantada. Esqueci mas o começo é mediano, até ruim comparado ao resto, mas melhora rápido.

read until chapter 97 before i dropped. the power system seems interesting but progress is very slow until now atleast. the novel starts basically with the mc reaching cultivation stage 1 in the first chapter, and ch 97 he has 3% progress towards reaching lvl 2.

now im fairly certain theres gonna be some quick progression events soon, and he is capable of fighting above his level also, but the tempo certainly isnt very fast regardless.

you can get used to the dialogue, but it feels fairly cheesy, i wasnt a fan. you can get a feel for the way the characters talk in the first chapter, just know it stays that way.

the society they live in is also very unreasonable... all people are atleast stage 1, they reach it by the age of 14-17 or so, and many people train for higher levels, also a lot of people in the army since the country is governed by their military as the country constantly has to send people to the frontlines.

for some reason however, all the techniques are restricted...?? main character learns some technique that can help him a lot even at stage 1, given to him by his teacher, and he has to burn the papers after since its restricted information... and it wasnt even something crazy. just a basic method to better control his aether (mana), that it seems like most people who cultivated even a little bit would quickly reach access to. for a world where people constantly die and every student is encouraged to reach higher levels, its a bit unreasonable for all the info to be restricted.

Is that shit or no? I am not korean, but synopsis feels too long and doesn't help to decide.
