The story begins with good execution and an interesting premise, but suddenly becomes extremely generic and wildly uninteresting.
After the initial chapters characters appear from nowhere, the MC backstory changes and the plot becomes increasingly incredulous. I assume pressure by the publisher forced a change, but it's unfortunate such an interesting premise was wasted.
Please disregard the negative comments below, as they primarily come from readers using manga aggregator sites that often have issues due to crawling pages from scanlation sources.
As for my review:
The story progresses at a deliberately slow pace, but remains enjoyable throughout.
While the beginning follows somewhat generic conventions,
the narrative never includes filler chapters that simply exist to meet publisher quotas (unlike many webnovels).
The protagonist's journey evolves organically, from traveling across countries to gradually building his own epic adventure, even including alliances with gods.
Most notably,the ENDING IS QUITE SATISFYING WITH A GOOD PAYOFF - something rarely found in completed manhwa and pornhwa, which often suffer from boring, rushed, or disinterested conclusions.
The finale of this manhwa is both fun and exciting. I hope the creators will share some author notes, as many readers would appreciate learning about their thoughts on completing this epic work.
Many of the existing "translated" chapters are completrly broken, as in entite pages missing, large chunks of the story, some are duplicated, and the translation constantly mixes up "i" and "you". Some chapters are missing entirely depending on where you read it, MangaDex doesnt have ch 38 at all. Various other sources have it but its actually a dupe of ch 37, and even if you find it large chunks of the story pages are missing around that plot too.
All in all, completely unreadable and not worth your time unless and until an actual group redoes literally all the old chapters.
im 44 chapters in, nearly caught up, and finding yet another chunk of missing pages and really. it wasnt worth it. dont waste your time.

In just 20 chapters my opinion of this series has switched from "OMG this is rad! Great character designs, too!" to "This manhwa is irredeemable, isn't it? Le Sigh"
The first chapter is interesting, it introduces a dude having to kill in order to survive, while disliking doing so... but by chapter 2, the MC discovers that he can kill monsters to gain time, and they give more time than people.
The problem is, the MC is living in this fucking world for 10 fucking years as a mercenary and NEVER saw a monster before (or thought about hunting them)... this is absolutely retarded and shows how incompetent the author is.
And like most korean authors, this one relies on hyping instead of true storytelling skills.
Yeah, I could be wrong and later on, the author manages to learn a thing or two about storytelling, but after reading so many manhwas, it almost never happens... if you see retarded plot points or signals that the story will go nowhere, then its best to just drop ASAP.

so from the premise, if you want to live, then kill.
It's basically MC killing for live, so the story may be generic around this main theme.
