“Every person has an equal amount of 8 skill holder slots. There are normal skills such as【Physical Strength】which takes up 1 slot, but there are also rare skills which take up 4 to 5 slots, or even rarer ones which take up all 8 slots.”

Is what old man Hinga taught me at the Orb Mine, where skill orbs are unearthed. But we “s*aves” could not acquire skills due to Contract Magic, thus s*aves had no future.

On one fateful day, the noble who owned the mine, that is, our “Master”, came to visit the Orb Mine. Due to a sudden earthquake, the ceiling collapsed, rocks fell directly on the noble’s head, and he died. At that moment, our contract magic disappeared.

The clever s*aves ran straight to the warehouse where the skill orbs were stored. They absorbed rare skill orbs, and used their newfound abilities and magic to defeat the guards and escape from the mine. It was a riot. I was too late to pick up a skill orb.

“–It’s over. I will be forced back into being a s*ave,” I despaired.

But just then, I saw a skill orb that shouldn’t exist. An orb which used 10 skill holder slots -【All Things In Creation 《World Ruler》】. A non-standard skill orb that would be of no interest to anyone but researchers because no soul in the world could use it. However, I was able to absorb【World Ruler】

Why? That’s because I was a “reincarnated person”. I had 8 more skill holder slots than an average person, for a total of 16 slots. The mine is besieged and there is only one exit. A mysterious skill【World Ruler】in my hand.

What do I do now?

The novel provided a generally enjoyable reading experience, with well-developed world-building and relatable characters. The MC's unique ability to equip skill orbs was an interesting concept, but it served mainly as an explanation and didn't dominate the plot after a certain point.

However, there were a few aspects that detracted from the story. Firstly, the MC often found themselves thrust into new situations due to external forces, lacking agency, which made for a somewhat predictable narrative progression. Secondly, the MC's party consistently spared "bad" individuals, even if it led to immediate complications, which became repetitive and occasionally frustrating, as most "villains" turned out to be misunderstood or had valid reasons for their actions.

Lastly, the romance subplot left me unimpressed. Despite the harem genre and multiple potential love interests, the MC chose to pursue a childhood sweetheart who was just ten years old at the time of their initial meeting. Their relationship progressed at an unrealistic pace, with long gaps between visits and a four-year separation before marriage. It seemed implausible and not a healthy foundation for a romantic storyline.

In summary, while the novel had its strengths, these shortcomings hindered the overall enjoyment for me.

It's actually a delightful novel. The protagonist exhibits remarkable strength in not lashing out at his circumstances or retaliating with hate. He is more composed and mature than many readers who would give low ratings, like one or two stars. People can indeed crumble under immense injustice, but some persevere, focusing on the silver lining and maintaining their integrity, choosing not to dwell on negativity and instead channel their energy into meaningful pursuits.

Regarding the plot twist where he chooses the earl's daughter over the elf they shared a challenging time with, despite the latter's potential longevity, it's a sigh-worthy decision. Sometimes, these kinds of choices lead to unexpected outcomes.

Honestly, the world-building is commendable, and the plot progression shows the author's growth as a writer. It's neither extraordinary nor terrible - I was able to finish it in two days without stopping (definitely worth the read). The story isn't one to blow your mind, especially if you've come across similar narratives before.

I would recommend it, primarily because I found the characters engaging,尽管主角不怎么浪漫(有点儿迟钝但讨人喜欢)。作者在描绘主角的冒险过程中,强调了"don't rely on yourself"和对自由的追求,这为故事增添了一些深度。如果你正在寻找一部不太惊艳但足够满足的冒险小说,那这本书也许适合你。

然而,在阅读过程中,可能会发现一些小漏洞,但这并不影响整体体验。有个小插曲是,那个副标题"Three Brides"让我以为不会有太多心碎情节,结果...唉,我的Asha梦碎了(我其实还挺喜欢她的线的,她是我最喜欢的)。总之,如果你能接受这些,那就值得一试。

This is a novel where the author contrives unsatisfactory reasons for the protagonist to distance themselves from the female leads. Initially, it might be acceptable in the second storyline arc, but as the pattern repeats in each subsequent arc, it becomes increasingly lame and illogical.

The narrative has been quite engaging so far, with well-reasoned surprises that add depth to the story. Although the main character (MC) appears to be a standard isekai protagonist at first glance, their development is evident through the chapters. They might be a bit slow to grasp certain situations, but that's preferable to being overly susceptible. The story doesn't shy away from action, and the power level progression remains consistent. Despite being overpowered, the MC's abilities have been earned through hard work, as demonstrated by the scene where they dedicatedly practiced without relying on their primary skill orb. Overall, I would recommend this tale; it's an enjoyable read.

If you can overlook the main character's slightly "selfless" nature, this novel is decent. The first arc might be a bit weak, but it seems to improve in the second one. I appreciate the growth of supporting characters and the intricate world-building. However, I find the protagonist's constant goodness and concern for others excessive, given his traumatic past – being betrayed by his own family, sold into slavery, and subjected to brainwashing and grueling labor. It feels like there should be more emotional depth, but the character's resilience borders on being unbelievable. It's unclear whether the author intended for him to remain so unaffected or if they're relying on dramatic moments only to abandon them later when they're no longer needed.
