Came here after visiting the author's other novel 'Building adult industry in fantasy world'. The chapter update frequency of 5chap/day looks pretty good. lets hope the author keeps up. Based on what I've read so far it seems like a classic story of boy from the boonies making it big to the olympic stage. The question how is what I'm looking forward to. Not having a system seems to make it feel make realistic.
