I love this, don't get me wrong... But I feel as if the storytelling is a little off. The beginning was fantastic, it caught my attention immediately and made me feel sympathy for the MC, but now it's paced weirdly. I don't know if it's because they keep focusing on random things, but honestly it feels like a ton of filler chapters. It's been 91 chapters and I feel like the MC still has a lot of growing to do in the martial arts world, plus when they focus on other people (like the martial alliance) it's a bit... annoying? I'm never looking forward to the chapters without MC, it really doesn't make sense to write multiple chapters without him when he's the center of the story.

    I get what you mean but this is honestly a good compromise for being one of the only good manhwas out there that has good story telling +pacing no annoying females and a reasonable mc he doesn't go around killing everyone and his place in the martial world is shown well he's super strong but he still can't be compared to the strongest like the old man

    I agree, chapters w/o him are so lonely… but at the same time world building can be important. Can’t really have new season of folks just coming to mountain to challenge him, and if he got his full revenge as soon as he met his sister, the story would be over, personally I let the chapters w/o him cook and just checked comments for his return then binged it! As far as him still needing to grow, guess he’s met a new grandpa to teach him a thing or two.
    It’s either OP from the go and just plow through or slower building of skills, I like and read both myself. ALSO I LOVE that there’s no annoying girls (yet

    After reading so many comics, I can thoroughly say that having women in the comic or romance doesn't taint it since it all depends on how it's written. If the romance became the forefront or if it became harem, ESPECIALY when the women are needy that is when it becomes annoying. I agree that it's great that he isn't the strongest right now, but they are running around bragging as if they are.

    World building is very important! I just wish they were smarter about how they wrote it. A lot of the time I don't mind how they do world building in other comics, it's usually something I don't complain about. Idk, it just feels awkward in this comic? But you're right, full revenge right at the get-go wouldn't be fun whatsoever. I might binge read it too after about 10 chapters
