"Bleh." - Imp

Exactly that Imp stumbles along a path of unfortunate fortunes and grows through it, in a world that hates its very existence.



It grows more intelligent, more powerful, simply better at whatever it needs to do. Amongst other things, that includes raising children, killing Soldiers, and carving wooden figurines for money.

TL;DR: This novel is like having a steak dinner after only eating hamburger helper for months. First off, the writing itself is on point. Just talking about grammar, punctuation, and spelling, it reads like someone actually proofread the chapters, and there aren't noticeable errors that distract from reading! Many available webnovels seem to suffer from a lack of proofreading, but this one doesn't. Even if this author doesn't actually proofread. In addition, the author's voice and varied vocabulary ensure good sentence variety and proper flow in each chapter all the way to the end, upon which one realizes they've read a lot, but still want to keep going. Once again, good flow is often hard to find in webnovels, so this one is a breath of fresh air. Or rather, a bite of sirloin steak. Plus, the characters have tangible character development--the big brain imp from the first 100 chapters is very different than the one now. Not just in power and figure, but also in what he values and how he reacts to events now. Ok I'm tired of writing now--it's a good book, story good, characters good, author good, I def dont regret spending 3 days reading all the way through. Though my wallet hurts a bit, I'd do it again.

You know that a book is good when you see that the author is DiceVR. Fyi he was the creator of "spending my retirement in a game", one of the best novel i have read to date. DiceVR is an author that was famous for it's roller coaster emotional ride that we get from reading his book. Not to mention he created a world that is very realistic and logical yet very likeable that some if not all reader can relate to. Each character have their own traits and flaws that we as a reader can see so clearly that i sometimes wonder if it's author personal life experience. Very similar to how every character in one piece have a flaw that drive them forward. Overall even though i never read this book, you can bet i'll read it as it is a book that have a high potential to enter on the list of best books i've ever read.

Another sht monster mc novel. Came to read monster mc but all this story is so far, is that the mc is being mind controlled, a slave and pet. Something that annoys about this is how everyone is loving the humans when they make a slave outta the mc. In the comments everyone says he is being treaded nice etc but this is the most dumb thing I have seen. Thyere being nice ? They are going to SELL him ? They treat him nice to get more money when they sell him. can go on but already said loads in the comments xD Something that annoys me in monster novels is that they authors are all human superiority. I wanted to read this novel bc he is NOT human. Not so you can just make him human later on, a hybrid of human and beast etc Dunno about the rest of the story but from what I have read it is an alright start made terrible. If your into the mc being pet/slave then good for you and might be worth the read. If looking for a pure monster mc story then dont bother. gl to author, bye

This is a book that offers the taste of REALISM as what we would expect in having a Monster(namely an Imp) as the Main Character in a fantasy world. The story, so far as what I've read, is about the MC's gradual development to an intelligent being, struggling to survive in an unfavorable environment. As he slowly learns the workings of the world, he is again and again faced with new questions and obstacles that he needs to address in order to improve himself and to demystify his purpose of existence.

This is a good read so far wish it update more often but as long it does not get drop then it fine I guess. It was funny it see how the imp was slowly learning how to do things.

Sorry dropping the novel at this point when i read about the children i thought you were adding depth to the novel, letting him have a family of sorts to develop the backstory. I ignored all the obvious plot armor because the overall story was interesting enough to continue and wonder about what will happen next However now i realised his family just turned out to be convinenr sidekicks to go slay the monster king, i feel this novel is very superficial and shallow, the way everything just falls into place for him is very boring and also kinda disgusting to read about. Finally why is he even a imp or demon when most of the time you make him out to be some kind of mr. nice guy...... Did u think a nice demonic imp is interesting? I think at the start it was interesting to see his reaction but later on he turns into such a bland generic human that i feel confused for you the author, u have forgotten the demonic part or monster part of your own main character. So this are the 2 main complaints i have about this novel. Thank you for all the interesting chapters so far.

Current chapter 443 The novel overall is pretty good my complaint is it’s very slow paced a lot of dialogue fight scenes are not enough specially this is a monster MC we all expect with the mark of wrath even the level ups is a bit lazy it’s either gone stale or he got boosted/cheezed he’s way through early chapters shows he’s proficiency in skills but after his father arc we don’t get to see it again which pretty concerns me since he trains all the time it’s good to know as readers what’s the progress since less than a year he goes from a lil good to the become strongest in the country 300-400+ chapters he’s still training mostly slice of life and 2 boss fights (plays boss music)

Its hard to write this given I’ve been here since chapter 20, but I’m done. I’m not going to spoil the plot, but I am going to list the major problems. 1. Over the course of the novel the ‘system’ becomes an afterthought. It’s a common problem amongst novel’s that use a system with balance, and large bricks of text becoming harder to manage. It ends up getting updated once every hundred chapters. 2. Eiro becomes more, and more 1 dimensional as the story progresses. Without giving specifics Eiro loses his initial wrathful charm as it gets replaced with a more karen like anger. 3. Dice goes for way too much consistently causing random important plots to be dropped, and filler added. At chapter 600 3 giant plots have been seemingly forgotten that immediately come to mind. This compounds with the massive roster that leaves many characters thin. This all slowly ate at me for the last hundred chapters, and I’m dropping it now. Goodluck, hopefully Dice fixes this stuff so you can enjoy his work more than me.

Got to chapter 40 when the story started getting tiresome to read. Read to chapter 50 but the deadly sin arc came out of no where and every one of the enemies the imp talks to seems to be retarded. Sorry author not my cup of tea.
