200 big 4+ A scribe, inspired by art’ philosophy an laws, encounters a saint of the murim (an independent warrior seeking perfection on his own) Determined to fight to death the 3 most reputed warriors of his time, he wants the scribe to write down his story and leave a trace Hence starts the story of the MC, who will learn the flow of the sword from the saint, inherit a sacred weapon, and wield a sword to protect The scholar, will a a teacher, attached to peace and principles , a very unusual murim who never kills, but blows true evil away, and heal the flow when needed Contrary to some comment, there are lots of female admirers, but no harem as he’ a man of one heart There’s a goo bit of humor, a big pinch of politics in the background (growing) , a big bunch of nice characters and a good pace The philosophical part of the story is omnipresent but not overwhelming or boring, it’s light, but it’s there, in some contemplative pages, quotes, or simply because the MC is very righteous I found the story to be refreshing, it’s a murim story from the point of view of a pacifist and a teacher I found the red demon arc (19x?) to be disappointingly redundant (thankfully it’s short), and it made me feel the MC was becoming somewhat of a stereotype with no volume. I hope the author won’t get lost by making his characters too distant and inhuman, as he could easily be lost in a lack of depth conceptual box It could also bring more informations about the unorthodox (not demon), for unknowning readers It’s mostly entertaining, but i understand one might criticize the proportions of (blushing) female that is a bit too much -
