I never like reviewing these kinds of manwhas due to how commonplace they have become and how they virtually have no diversity from each other. However, this manwha in particular pulls away from the rest with the ability to set different moods: comedic, mysterious, satisfaction, and scariness.
Along with the overall ambiance, the plot line has been established with a goal in mind, which is much different from the usual “get stronger and survive with the system, think about the ending later” plot-lines.
As for the characters, the main character is cunning but also has morals, not wanting to repeat the past mistakes and grievances of not intervening. Side characters are also well-established by using the mc as a sharpening stone to become stronger and developing their personality.
It’s a lovely read, especially if you’re a mythology fanboy, due to the Nordic incorporation, but it can also come off as a bit cringey. But hey, you’re reading manwha/manga/manhua/whatever the hell, so should that be one of your biggest concerns?
PS: I get this manwha confused with another manwha that was released at the same time. It was about getting a rare necklace (?) in a VR game . . . Don’t know how it’s doing though because I dropped it at like chapter 13. Just some random thoughts…
