    There are a lot of plot holes in the story. This is just one of the latest.

    In the chapter where George and Rudolph had invited the Mellon consortia's board of director to talk about the new loom. They say that they had contacted three inventors from the temple of elements to try to make the new loom. I bet master Terence was one of them.

    Just binge-read 245 chapters... This is great!

    Its not exactly a 'morally upright' novel, but it does properly, and in a sense, realistically portray the descent to madness. After all, you're dealing with a 9 to 18 year old fella that has literally suffered through what a lot of adults can't and won't even make it without severe PTSD (especially that dungeon arc where he was nearly orally and butt-raped).

    This story has so much potential, its a bit of a lot of things. Attack on Titans, that Magus story (which i forgot the title), Release the Witch, Fallout, etc..

    But then again there are also so many questions.

    Here are some that I had:

    1. Who or what lies within the "inner wall".
    2. Within that 300 years gap, something built a wall so high (that's impossible with current level tech, maybe it looks abit like those in Pacific Rim, except on a much grander scale, with underground tunnels and whatnot). But who, or what?
    3. the MC now recovers 3 tubes of batteries and a holographic interactive card reader. So what can it teach / help the MC? Apparently it doesn't have computational power, so its just is an overglorified holographic portable wikipedia.
    4. The MC seems to be 'distracted' by entering multiple factions, but I doubt that's the case. What's his end game?

    Well, the butler tried to betray him but our MC is way too smart. The butler is on his last chance as he already tried to betray MC a few times. The other people doesn't betray him yet. The girl seems to be quite kind hearted too, as she requested Dudian for soldiers to save the innocents. Our MC being the anti-hero he is asked her why he should do so but later gave her soldiers as it could bring him benefits.

    Wow thank you I'm pretty much using google translate so its hard to understand some stuff.
    Yeah I was able to understand that she's kind hearted despite being tortured too. It'd be nice if Jenny was jealous of her but... What happen to jenny? I have no heard of her since the poem. I'm at the part where he grows wings on his back...? I think? lol I probably misunderstood

    Will drop this novel if he gets back with Jenny. Jenny doesn't deserve the mc.

    Don't drop the novel just because of one bad choice that Dudian/Dean makes. For all we know she actually improves the story and helps him with his alchemy......or maybe not who knows I certainly don't

    The thing about this story is that, people insist that
    a) MC should be a Mary Sue (which he shouldn't, because that isn't human)
    b) MC is a Mary Sue (which he isn't because he does make a lot of mistakes)

    But the subtle emphasis of the dark side of things that mirrors what happens in real world (even in academia, as shown in the temple of light / faith or whatever), is refreshing. Of course plot armor saves the day for certain things, but also it makes a good story to see how the MC tackles the challenges.

    Now he's back into the "business and negotiations". This guy at this point is Zhuge Liang (in a bad sense). He's taking everything, too much upon himself. His assistants aren't up to par yet, and he has many fronts to tackle. Sooner or later, it will overwhelm him all.

    This is only but one "walled city". I'm sure there must be other walled cities, and further adventures.

    his first hunt for the "New World consortium" netted him 400 gold, with a potential deficit of 50k gold (because he needed a some sort of elixir to regrow his arm due to it being broken into pieces, and will need years for it to properly "heal".

    Wow reading you guys post i thought Jenny back stab the hero and then went off to marry someone else.

    No, wait Jenny was loyal as a dog. After Dean there was no one else. She refuse to marry anyone else and after she found out Dean was innocent she ran to his side to apologize. She want to do anything to get his forgiveness.

    Are we really saying that this person is redeemable?

    i think it's more that she's too naive and gullible to be worth the time, compared to others that bring more to the table than just "a noble's daughter". nice first love, time to move on.

    how has she learned? she hasn't examined the case or even asked what really happened, has she? would she even believe him if she was told? she was just notified he was found innocent and jumped on it. just because she apologized doesn't mean she's learned anything or actually grown.
