Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse by Adui

This author writes too much bullshit, is the fight even going to happen? If feels like I’m reading a whole new story in this novel. He is absolutely terrible at writing fight scenes, because he builds up the hype, then builds it up even more, then more, and more, and then randomly decides to add in the backstory of this character he’s fighting who we very well know will be dying as soon as this fight scene actually f#cking starts. Instead of actually writing a fight scene and adding 10 chaps of exposition on subjects that don’t add to the hype and actually kills the hype, right after the the fight scene starts, just write it before the fight scene or don’t write it at all. Because it simply doesn’t matter and we don’t care.

A lot of people were saying that the author adds too much fluff in the later chapters to milk more money, now I fully understand and completely agree. Because this author definitely knows how to build hype during fight scenes, at least from what I’ve read in the earlier chapters. But lately he’s been adding so much filler, uses ‘background building’ that literally doesn’t contribute to the story, and in fact makes it a drag to read and remember.

Honestly it’s sad, I don’t blame the author, I blame Webnovel. It’s a cancerous tumour to the novel community since they established the concept that more words = more money. And obviously most of the authors need money. So why wouldn’t they add filler for more word count which equals more money? It’s just a shame the author is ruining his own story for just a bit more money. I don’t even care if he makes this novel over 10k chapters. If it was like it was during the earlier chapters where there were barely any fillers or exposition on things that don’t matter, where skills don’t take up 1/4 of the chapter and is constantly repeated over several chapters. Where the fight scenes didn’t have 10 extra filler chapters in-between them like One Piece or DBZ. I would read all of it. Now, I’m almost caught up to the latest chapters, where I would have to wait every day for a chapter or 2 just for it to be a whole chapter on his new skills that take up 1/4 of the page and then useless or boring exposition or some random backstory or inner thoughts on random characters that will die in the next chapter which takes up 1/2 the chapter which only leaves 1/4 of the chapter that actually moves the plot forward. I just don’t think I have the willpower or dedication or desire to carry on reading.

Maybe some people agree, some disagree, but this is my personal opinion. I believe the story is on its downfall, but facts will speak for themselves and time will tell. I honestly hope I’m wrong or the author comes to his senses. Or maybe I’m just wrong and the author will continue having success. I just wanted to rant.
