Honestly, between the inaacuracies in the way certain weapons are used in real life and the book, along with IET pretty boring tournament arc history, this book really is not that engaging. For example, everything so far and implied for the future by the title is going to be combat tournament arcs. No offense but tournament arcs are usually the worst part of any light novel. Authors seem to stick to the formula and i cannot imagine why an author like IET would limit themselves to a story like that, especially when they describe thw characters using weapons in ways that the weapons are not used. The best example is the Halberd scene where IET describes the warrior stabbing with the point and swinging with the bladed end. This is not how Halberds are used. Its like saying someone shooting a handgun is supposed to hold it sideways like a gangster its inproper and inaccurate. Halberds are held with two hands and the staff end is used to parry and prod until an opening is made where the combatant can bring the axe/hammer end down. Put it quite simply the book doesn’t seem all that intresting 42 chapters in so im dropping This is a 2 and a 1/2 star book but I have to give two 5 stars for update stability and translation quality so tale the score as you will.
