Seems generic. Maybe I'm misjudging but from 30 chaps so far, MC seems like a gary stu
The synopsis says "he can enroll in the prestigious Phileon Academy and become the strongest swordsman the empire has ever seen!" but off the bat it seems he already is the strongest, given how nothing is a challenge to him. 1v3 against the top seniors- no problem, Rock golems- just need a few swings, a mysterious cult involved in his past life- speed blitz 'em. I was really holding out for the 2 cultists to prove to be a challenge, given how they seemed competent and how everything seemed
...
to be a cake walk so far; I thought: "Yes! a worthy opponent to push Ronan, a brilliant adversary to overcome and reach greater heights! They have connections to his past and are being hyped up, the author must be showing Ronan is far from where he needs to be and set a goal for him to reach!" only to be disappointed. The only person that managed to be of any challenge was instructor Nabirose, who is in the top tiers of the universe so its not saying much.
ch23 is the best, the adeshan drama is the only interesting part of the story. Though in the same chapter, Ronan starts "intimidating" people, which looks silly given his plain character design, and lack of aura, juxtaposed with lines such as "compliantly, get fucked" and "just get fucked" comes off like a middle schooler wrote the dialogue.
His sister's storyline is wholesome, but we dont see enough of her
Potential plotholes:
ch25 if Ronan came to the blacksmith to get a sword that could withstand his strength, how did he easily cut down several rock golems, without breaking his old sword before receiving his new one?
ch 29, if the cultists are under some curse that prevents them from speaking of some secrets, how could they mention "starlight" to ronan in ch26
Pros: long chapters, easy to binge
