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

      Reminds me of Skinner quote: "If freedom is a requisite for human happiness, then all that’s necessary is to provide the illusion of freedom."
      Sunny never escaped fate just got an illusion of it.

    Хорошее произведение и стоит потраченного времени. Автор силен в сюжете. Тут нет чеховских ружей которые не стреляют. Многие незначительные детали сыграют свою весьма значительную роль много позже. Сюжетная броня не навязчива и «рояли в кустах» скорее интересны, чем раздражают. Единственная слабость автора - это отношение полов. Так что если вы будите ждать адекватных для 20+ лет героев романов, их тут не будет. Герои вечные девственники аутисты + отношение автора к женским героям сродни к гиковской коллекции фигурок на полке. Одна идеальней и краше другой, и при этом с эротизмом пластиковой куклы. Т.е. все читатели знают, что автор заглядывает к ним под юбки, но стесняется об этом говорить. И еще минус у романа: автор любит заниматься описательным самоповторением для заполнения глав, но этим страдают почти все авторы, что публикуют произведение по главам - бизнес модель. Если не эти минусы, то произведение не хуже «Многоярусного мира» Фармера.

      Судя по твоим аргументам ты либо мало вебновелл прочёл, либо тебе попадались только низкосортные.
      1. Какой бы ни был сюжет, если гг не стремится к «возвышенным» идеалам, то произведение становится в какой-то мере нечитабельно. В данном случае экстремально нечитабельно. Гг раз за разом даёт себя использовать и в конечном счете прощает своих обидчиков, чтобы снова быть использованным.
      2. По поводу отношения автора к женщинам я с тобой согласен. В одной из глав я даже написал коммент по этому поводу: если автор не хочет вводить романтическую линию в сюжет, то пусть не вводит, но в данном случае он постоянно упоминает женщин в контексте «секс - это плохо, но какие же они сексуальные».

      Я тебе настоятельно советую почитать новеллы на Royal road, там есть куча топовых произведений, на фоне которых данное будет казаться полнейшим мусором.

        Аргумент 1 - чушь. Возвышенные идеалы - это для мальчиков, дяди знают, что мир сложнее. Как и вечное «отомстю и мстя моя будет страшна, потому что не чушпан».

        Я даю оценку и имхо в рамках фэнтази романа, а не «взрослой» литературы. Но да, я вебки почитываю время от времени и не так чтобы часто, и сравниваю с старыми впечатлениями от старичков жанра золотой эпохи фантастики прочитанных в юности. Ожидаю ли я героев Достоевского, эротизма Миллера или драмы Уильямса? Определенно нет. Но это произведение лучше чем Мартин по сборке сюжета, что уже не плохо.

          Потратить жизнь впустую ради мести - это как раз детский сад. В первом аргументе я говорил скорее о самосовершенствовании, погоне за лучшей жизнью, заботе о близких или осуществлению давней мечты/цели. А вот эти все сюжеты где гг искусственно загнан в какие-то невероятные рамки, типо это его судьба быть рабом - бред как по мне.
          Кста, что примечательно, то первые 100 глав здесь были прям оч хорошими (до того как они добрались до разрушенного города). Если я правильно помню, то гг как раз и хотел заработать денег на своём пробуждении, помочь младшей сестре и прожить счастливую жизнь. Это кста более реалистичный сценарий, без детскости и лишнего геройства.

          P.s. Я не сравниваю вебновеллы с полноценными романами. Вэбновеллы по сути своей должны быть динамичными и захватывающими без излишней психологи (все должно быть в меру).

            Ок, последовав совету полез на RR. Взял топ - «Мать учения». Это ахтунг какой треш. Т.е. на этом фоне даже Нортон с «Колдовским миром» достойна Небьюлы. Короче, хз что сейчас молодежь считает за норму, но это очень низкая планка. Если не читал олдов, вот мои рекомендации: «Ночь в одиноком Октябре», «Корпорация МИФ», «Шутовская рота», «Хроники Амбера», «Мир реки», «Многоярусный мир», «Принесите мне голову прекрасного принца», «Неукротимая планета» и много чего еще из этих авторов. Все очень динамично, живенько, с норм героями, интригами и главное написано хорошо.

            П.с. А насчет Раба - скорее всего скипну дальше читать. 26 летний девственник который даже не фапает и любой конфликт продолжает решать в манере «если хочешь поговорить докажи, что твое кон-фу круче моего», это нам кричит, что автор исписался. Это пипец как уже смешно… нет - это скучно.

        Death Sutra is about a boy whose clan was destroyed by the Mongols. Seeking revenge, he lowers his status to achieve his goal of revenge or fulfillment. I won't spoil. You can read on novelspl I won't like the website just search it on your own.

    sigh....i loved the early sunny up till he stayed in town alone and even got saint. but later sunny with character growth (which logically should make me like him more) just doesnt click with me. It just seems like he get taken advatage of repeatedly. And
    it ruined any interest i had left for the story. Might be intesting for some but this is not my cup of tea.

    Interesting story, if you've read a lot of web novels that everything seems like a blur then you might enjoy it. Just not my cup of the tea, given that MC is a slave, not that affects the story much but just doesn't sit well with me? I guess because
    is more of a "MC"?

    Maybe I'll re-read when the novel is complete...

        Bro, i thought you moved on based on your above comment, why are you still here? You have been here for pretty much two years, leaving negative reviews and working hard to make sure that new readers do not even start the novel, are you a professional hater or just a tsundere because I always see you here whenever a big batch of new chapters are droped.

        I understand not liking a novels, i also don't like some novels, but i just leave a review stating why i dont like it and dip, Just like one shouldn't try to save an abusive relationship and instead just let go, it's time to move on, you can use the time you spend here enjoying other worlds and stories.

          ran out of things to read, saw this on top 10, saw it rating have improved so came here to read a few comments and see if the story improved. What's wrong with that?

          my comment wasnt even negative, i was just wondering hw novel would have turn out if neph was MC which see pretty much is even in this one.

          You calling me hater yet since the time i drooped this novel i've never said anything explicity bad about it, most I repy to notification or give candid reply to comments. Its also kinda creepy how invested you're in my history and baiting me with with name callings.

            There is nothing wrong with that, but as i stated you have been here for pretty much every month here since around 2 years ago, you literally commented that it was not worth reading this novel to the latest chapter a few weeks ago, have you read to the latest chapter? Why?

            my comment wasnt even negative, i was just wondering hw novel would have turn out if neph was MC which see pretty much is even in this one.


            I replied to this comment because it was your latest comment on this novel, besides that, i don't agree with your take, even if Nephis had a prominent role in this novel at the start, she simply disappeared or is not in it for around half the novel, and Sunny has become pretty much become stronger than her the only thing he needs to worry about is
            which he can quite easily avoid with shadow step as he has much greater essence now.

            I would like to apologize as it was not my intention to creep you out, i just have similarly spent a lot of time here so i see when you comment your latest comments here, i know of your history here due to that and because i like reading top comments.

            Can you tell me when exactly you truly dropped this novel? And If what you have been doing is not saying anything explicitly bad about this novel, can you give an example by saying something truly explicitly bad about this novel because i can't even properly imagine it if your comments are not considered to be part of them.
