The Mysterious Black Magician

HI, Author here! Shamelessly reviewing his work. Of course, I rated it for 5. But if you have free time and nothing to do, try to peek and read in this novel. Maybe what you’re looking for is here. The greatness of this novel cannot be found in the early chapter. Every character in this novel is 4d😉. So try and see. Then don’t forget to leave a review. And if you are more than generous, I will be happy and be more motivated if you can drop some power stone or send coffee gifts. I leave it here if you wanted to rant at me: Discord: @CloudSky#4375 BIG THANKS FOR READING!!

This story is a good read to try out. It starts off slow then it gets better at somehwere around ch.40. Most reviews are on grammar, all i say is come on humans arent perfect. Most reviews are also from those who stop at the first 10 chapters and havent read the whole novel. Give it a try If your have nothing to read.

The story starts off slow but really started to pick up to a good pace if you make through the beginning. the more the story progresses id have to say everything gets a lot better the mc is developing at a good pace the world background is solid and the author does a great job at makIng you want more. great job author keep up the good Work

so what chapter dose it get good. Like an OP mc. Cuz I like it so far but it's slow beyond belief like those books they make u read at school anyways lt me know and I dont mean like lvl 2 I mean like bad ass s*****.

my review for this novel(im not a hater, contains mild spoiler, I've read till chp 16) caution: read this novel if you doesn't care for faulty power/combat/levelling system and quite brain dead mc the story starts with how apparently weak the mc was. due to reason i'll not say, he arrived last at the school when they are giving free skills for first timer, making mc only get the last skill left that is self healing. nothing is wrong right? it was said that people can train to get attribute points and skills. with self healing, the amount of time mc could train the body is many times longer and receive benefit faster than other people, yet he never does this. mc is actually quite a clever kid, he managed to create an arrow almost as good as a b rank wood arrow by using a c rank wood (cost much lesser than b rank wood) + slime urine which is practically free. he also manage fool the guard by selling the c rank arrow at the price of higher than a b rank arrow. oh so you readers may wonder why do i said the mc is brain dead and the system in this novel is busted right? now here is the problem, the first chapter is showing how mc, a lv0 human fights a lv1 frog monster. you would see nothing is wrong here right? casual fighting monster 1 lv higher than you right? well, all is well until you see mc damages is only 1dmg when the frog deals like 30 dmg from normal attacks. the reasoning why his dmg is so low from the novels is that mc have no attacking skills (mc have benn whining how he have no attacking skill for all those 16 chp). but wait, you would think that stats influence the effect of normal attacks and skills. if an attack skill let you increase damage by 10%, with mc damage(that is 1 dmg), he could only dish out 1,1 damage which is way worse than his self healing which can heal his health for quite a good chunk. so the way i see it, he gaining self healing is way better than having attack skills. but than i notice something, you use magic skill by draining stamina? like wtf!! in the novel mc doesn't even have mana. if so, how the f other people gain mana then? its not like there is no poor people other then mc right? is gaining a magic skill unlocks mana? that can't be because he already have magic skills. why don't mc change his skill to a physical one then? he could always barter with other people for an attacking skill outside the school. honestly, the author is making level gap a big of a chasm. a lv1 monster can deal lots of damage against a lv 0 human is honestly mind boggling. its not like a monster gain 3-5x the amount of stats human gain when leveling up. if his damage is already so low, wouldn't it be better for mc to just chuck rocks from a safe distances using hands or slingshot, at least it reduces his chances of receiving dmg. besides how the hell mc as clever as he was never tried to team up with anyone else? even if he have low dps, he could be a tanker because his self healing. if his class is his enemies, he could go to other class to team up right? its not like everyone is an evil bullying bastards. he could also report to the teacher that he was close to for all his bullying which he never do. you could argue that mc is a loner/introvert but even i as a loner/introvert could report and ask help from others. he also have a very sick sister, which he very desperate to cure. so there is no excuse at all for him not to team up with others. his attitude for not seeking any help in all that condition is honestly just sheer arrogance and brain dead in my eyes.

Interesting, good background and has lots of potential, but the author is still in his infancy when it comes to writing. Info dump everywhere, description of important events are ignored, characters are the most fake I have ever seen. Forced bullying, forced situations, no credibility at all. The Mc is dumb, ignorant of his own powers and is a suckrr for girls. Even the good old cliches are badly done here. The grammar and English of this, is almost umbereable. Needs some seeeerious editing to become readable. But again, is has potential, but the author seems to never have read a good written novel before. Maybe in the hands of a different writer, this can be a good gem. At last, good luck author. Hope you become a hellaof writer and comes back to redo this one. Good luck.

The good thing about reading MCs progress through the novel is you get to feel his earlier struggles. It's normal for readers to be frustrated about MCs weakness, but when he achieves the level where he deserves to be, I imagine it would be so much more rewarding. Waiting for that point for this MC. As for writting quality, the author's writing improve as he makes more chapter. Good job author.

I wanna like this story but there is next to no story development and frankly there is not a single character that I genuinely like, just ones I dont hate... or well, really hate. I definitely wanna mention that it's fine to have a main character start out weak, but it's extremely frustrating to read a story in which the character is set up to fail and be made a mockery of around every corner no matter what he does. This was especially unfortunate at one point where th mc used his brain to set up a trap just to fail at the last second for a totally avoidable reason that came out of nowhere. In 80 chapters we got one sneak peak into what's special about him and will presumably help him become strong at some point, but even then the focus was much more on how that ability is limited instead of how the mc will build up on that ability. Which I feel is just not enough to balance out the frustration that builds up while reading. Now at the end I wanna say that I do feel like the author is improving and the story might very well get more engaging at a later point but you might wanna start reading from chapter 50 like suggested because before that point it is genuinely jarring to read, not because of grammar or anything but because of the above mentioned reasons.

Is it worth reading? Yes. But, skip to chapter 40 and wait till chapter 70 till it gets better. The only thing you miss by jumping to chapter 40 is a small backstory of 1 chapter. It tells you about how he has/had a master who taught him basic sword work and how to channel mana. The last day he saw his master when he came home from seeing him he found his parents dead with a powerful crazy person above them with his sword sill stabbed into their bodies. He fights the bad guy and fails miserably and keeps fighting him to try to keep him away from his little sister. He fails and fails and then they get closer to his sister and she runs in front of him to stop the bad guys attack from hitting him. She then out of no where lights up like a lightbulb and it knocks back to bad guy and he gets scared and says she is connected to people called "Fate" or "Fated". She then gets sick and is sick for the rest of her life. They become orphans. That is all you will miss by skipping to chapter 40. On top of this this LN is 8th grade syndrome and no one dies or at least the MC is never allowed to kill anyone even if they are constantly attacking him and hurting him or trying to kidnap the girl that his was hired to guard. Then even more 8th grade syndrome comedy happens in the LN that probably only the author himself finds funny.

Story about a weak, ignorant, coward MC that gets bullied. If that was not enough, he has a sick sister. No thanks. No idea why he has awful attributes nor cannot get an attack skill.

I've only read for a bit but the story is not very interesting and I think that the amount he gets bullied is just boring now and I really want to see him be good at something

If someone needs to read 100 chapters to START enjoying your story thats a bad sign.

good start and nice different approach with the systhem but the storry is full of holes and mistakes initself. author maybe reread your own storry
