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

    Too many non consequential fights.
    It's mostly just fights with bits and pieces of story mixed in, the opposite of LOTM(not comparing just an example as most people have read LOTM).
    I don't have so much of a vivid imagination nor do I know about how most of these fighting techniques works to visualise these. I would rather "watch" fights than read it, I read novels mostly for their compelling story. So not upto my taste. Left at chapter 1780 for now.

        I guess by not following the crowd. But mostly by clowning people(spitting facts actually, inam clowning according to them) in Cultivation Online Comment section.

        [P.s: I don't even visit my profile ever so don't know about that, like you saw I never got any warns or ban, I was just disagreeing with people and they disagreed with my opinion also]

        Oh no, my action novel has too many similiar action sequences with little to no change. And if you have read my comments i mentioned I don't prefer action in "words". Not my thing. I have read too many novels with action genres that are more story than action. No one is asking you to not read it. It's just not my thing, and I think you should learn to expect not everyone to be in the same boat. If they are, boy you are living in an echo chamber.

      Fights are integral to the story and there's literally none that are inconsequential to it, your comment it's just not true. You just don't like it and that's okay, take it and move on no need for the ragebait comment with fake moral superiority. Also, personal comment, the fights are fire, best fight scenes I've ever read on a light novel. Another personal comment bro if you lack imagination books are not for you, i suggest you watch: "Dora the explorer" should be the right show for your toddler level brain.

        Ok? And? I already mentioned it's not for me what's new did you mention.
        You must really like this to go back to past pages to read comments. Nothing I am gonna say gonna go through your thick skull, so I am not gonna waste my time further. Have a good time reading, I am not gonna undermine something that you like, not everything is for everybody.

            Yeah you are kid, I am not interested in further worthless conversation with you, good bye and good luck.
            Fanboys are blind and if you can't understand this simple fact you are lacking comprehension ability.

    Too much misery. Sunny’s life is one long torture session with just enough small wins to keep you hooked.

    Even when he actually wins, it’s either a pyrrhic victory or it gets instantly wiped out by a stronger enemy next. He keeps getting betrayed, tricked, or enslaved by the people around him, and somehow he’s still forced to work with them. There’s never any satisfying revenge or real clapback.

    I want to feel happy, excited, or at least entertained while reading in the little free time I have, not angry, disappointed, and frustrated after every chapter.

    Quote: Бог, что влюблен в Лису
    Это было просто лучшее путешествие. Для меня надолго запомнится "Теневой Раб", к сожалению в ближайший год я не смогу не узнать не притронуться к чтению и очень надеюсь что спустя год смогу вновь погрузиться в этот волшебный мир, если, конечно, смогу хехе. Большое спасибо G3 и переводчику что предоставляет нам чтение на этом сайте, читал я конечно с переводчиком на русский, но все равно полностью погрузился в роман. Всем удачи ребят, может увидимся через год boast

    This is messed up, Guiltythree is russian but his countryman needs to translate it to russian to read?

    Whats up with that Barisbi? Can't you publish a version in your native language? Or maybe putin is putting pressure on literature not putting any importance to putin?

    That's easy just put in a putin character there somewhere.

    The novels about sunny an orphan got no hoes, no crib, no money, all he got is his mind and determination,

    Once the nightmare spell chose, you will thrown into another realm to determine what job class fit for you if you finish it. then you will also granted a true name if your lucky and a flaw(weakness) different from each people,

    In sunny case he can't lie and his job class requires a master by speaking his true name you will become his master then you can order him around and sunny can't resist, so he need to hide this fact but he can't lie so sunny will find a way for some loophole while battling monster and deceitful people,

    Sunny will got finesse but don't worry if you're worried about the master slave thing, he will get out of it at later in chapters 1800+

    "4/5" Overall the novel is decent would recommend, don't expect a LOTR writing and just give it try man.

    All I see in this comments are those haters who havent read to chapter 1000 or volume 6. They stopped even before 500s when the story is still being built differently and cant stand reading something potentially heavenly for free here. You could comment hate if you put them in webnovel platform that rob your money before its getting good. You are basically ungrateful wretches who seeks honey in someone's blood if you hate comment here. There are some who really read all the way to the end and still say it's not their plate (I don't know what you have read to be that way nor do I want to know), be it truthful or not, but most are pieces of rubish impatient fools. And those who finds out how good this is, hats off for your persistence of putting up all those exhausting and tedious read in the first 1000 chapters. And even more so for those who could support G3 directly even when they just started reading on vexing webnovel.
    For the series itself, I have nothing else to say except it's top-tier. There is nothing perfect, but this one is close. But for those who cant stand the first volumes (800s chapters) of story-building, I don't recommend this. You could imagine it even by the lotm power ranking standard where they have 10 level but ended barely in 1400 chapters, while SS have only 7 level, but even now in almost 2,7k chapters, sunny only recently stepped in level 5. Although it's like that, this is not boring at all because how inducing these stick and carrot storytelling is!! Rewards only comes to those who persevere.

          Just say that you did not have the patience, imagination and curiosity to read after ch 1100
          I won't give you spoiler but third nightmare(tomb of ariel) is one of the best arcs and throne of war is simply peak

    I’ve read up until chapter 2585, and I want people to know what to expect:

    The first 34 chapters are used to know the main character, sunny and to see the world, a prelude of you will, there you will learn that sunny is distrustful of people in general, and yet even in a world heading to ruin, there are those still willing to help and educate him in order to survive.

    From then on, in volume 1, it is a constant stream of struggle that sunny decides to endure with his newfound companions, whom he learns to trust more than just at arm’s length, it is here we see a part of the other side of this setting, the forgotten shore, a place where everything that is not human aims to kill you, from the big crustacean monsters, to the bright red coral reefs, trees, and even the lake, the first priority in this volume is to find a human settlement, Sunny is lucky and unlucky enough to find the strongest cadet in his group, along with the weakest, a blind girl, together they brave through countless abominations and even cross the lake to finally chance upon a settlement.

    In volume 2, we see sunny after a time skip, he was carefully making his morning routine, but there was something wrong, sunny had been a bundle of nerves up until this point, but considering his aspirations, it really made sense,

    Until it is revealed…


    I’ve already talked a lot.

    TLDR; don’t expect a heartless mc, but don’t expect a fully good and emotionally mature mc. Expect tradegy.
