Growing up in poverty, Sunny never expected anything good from life. However, even he did not anticipate being chosen by the Nightmare Spell and becoming one of the Awakened — an elite group of people gifted with supernatural powers.

Transported into a ruined magical world, he found himself facing against terrible monsters — and other Awakened — in a deadly battle of survival.

What’s worse, the shadow powers he received happened to possess a small, but potentially fatal side effect… Collapse

    Man I really miss the community on LNW. In the comments for this novel there, all people talked about were theories and cool thoughts. Mostly supporting the novel and stuff, talking about each new chapter.

    Here, I see that half the comments are people trashing it and review bombing it. If you don't like it, stfu and go somewhere else

      I see I’ve found a fellow light novel reader here. Man… reading web novels will never be the same again.

      I liked it there so much, but took a break because of circumstances. When I came back, reaperscans, mangadex, and lnw from where I had read manhwas, mangas, and light novels were all down. Really made me sad. I have finally found a no ad website as a replacement, but the community really was irreplacable. Cheering for Netherclaw.

    This is only my second web novel, but I wish it was my first, because then maybe I wouldn't be as disappointed as I am with it. It's my fault for believing the hype comparing it to LOTM, honestly, if I hadn't such high expectations I'd have enjoyed it more... probably.
    I only managed to read up until the third volume, chapter 562, and beside some of the characters and the worldbuilding *inside* the Spell, I only enjoyed the start of the first and third volume and the end of the second one, the rest I had to struggle to read through it.
    As a Manhwa enjoyer, this is not bad, it's somewhat good even, if you're an avid reader of Manhwa you're going to have fun with this one, just don't make the same mistake as I did and read this with the expectation that it's on par with LOTM or Nothern Blade.
    It's not.

      I tried LOTM and I can't say it's bad but definitely not my style. I had really high expectations for it, but after about 15 chapters I dropped it, the whole novel (world, characters, writing style) was in my eyes a litlle bit above average. Since it wasn't really that bad for me I didn't wrote a review or started a discussion about this novel, because I know it was well liked in the community.

      So to put it short, don't compare novels with a subjectiv opinion

      Greetings, fellow reader.
      Let me first congratulate you and express my regret that LOTM was your first novel. It's hard to find a story with so much planning.
      But I would recommend "The Wandering Inn". The worldbuilding is even more complex, with very long chapters and numerous characters and plot lines.

    I think everyone needs to take a chill pill. Genuinely, I find it so difficult to imagine the pure rage on both sides of the spectrum with people vehemently defending this novel and others ruthlessly attacking it. I for one am a fan of this novel and had read this to around chapter 2000 before being swept away by other responsibilities.

    Nonetheless, I find the worldbuilding intriguing, the characters for the most part nuanced (I'm looking at you Mordret) and I do not mind the gimmick of him being a literal slave (this gets interesting later on). Now I have to clarify to the 1% of completely paranoid schizophrenics, I am not a complete weirdo who is into this dynamic, but it in the context of the story in both thematic and practical applications, is a novel premise. I give it a solid 4.5/5

    With that being said, please can we stop biting each other's heads off. If you don't like the novel or the premise, say that, leave a bad review and carry on. And those who like this, don't attack someone for not liking an aspect and understand that everyone perceives things differently. Not asking everyone to stop having opinions but we don't have to antagonise each other and be as polarised it is now.

      Your awesome bro. I would like to add, if you are going to try to rebuff someone's opinion, please use evidence. I love SS and it hurts to see so many people saying, don't worry if your stupid and stuff like that to negative reviews, like that just makes you as much of an idiot.(Not trying to make people mad) Just give evidence calmly, it's not that big of a deal really guys. Loved this. Have a good day!

      Nah bro youre the problem. It doesn t matter if you enjoy the story or not. Readers should at least use their braincells and be objective in their reviews and not come up with stuff to dislike. Its bescause of the people who are review bombing this which can t recognise quality and original writing that we are stuck low quality bs. Meanwhile novels like this get burried over time.

      I get it most readers are f degenerates who are only reading these novels for wish fullfillment, harem etc. Im sorry if i wanted to read romance etc i wouldn t be reading these genres. Yet everyone here gets stuck on it. Their minds are so twisted from porn and internet they are visualising smth in the story that isn t there. They dont apreciate the quality, originality or the narrative integrity which 95 percent of novels here struggle with.
      These mf can t apreciate the deeper thought put into the plot and world building at all. They dont care about the characters etc.
      Like here you have serious novel with author going all out from the start. There is like zero filler bs etc. What more do you want? Also i dont see anything wrong with attacking others taste in novels. Stop trying to take neutral high ground. This novel is objectively masterpiece compared to 99 percent of stuff youll find here.
