About this ebook

Kanata is making his way in the wider world of Locklore, despite the lich Lunaère’s warnings about its dangers. But after Lunaère’s intensive training, everyone he runs into seems strangely...weak? Still, you can't be too careful, so Kanata and his new friends make their way toward the city of Manaloch to get some alchemy ingredients. But danger lurks nearby in the form of an infestation of giant spider monsters! And somewhere in the world, Lunaère is slowly making her way back to Kanata...

Ratings and reviews

This series is weirdly good. I have no idea what about it makes it so compelling, as it's extremely generic. I could definitely do without the 5000 year old little girl with no discernable personality besides being cute though. That's definitely the weakest part of the story. I hope her character ends up expanded on, altered, or removed, because she drags down every scene she's in.

I'm not particularly fond of the word, but moron is the only thing I can think of to describe the mc. You'd think after lvl checking hundreds of entities outside the dungeon, his brain cells would be working well enough to realize that maybe he should use weaker skills since he wants to hide his power level, or when he blurts out incredibly rude comments it doesn't just make everything ok if you say "sorry I don't know what im talking about", just makes himself out to be a moron then wonders why people don't like him or they want to fight. This dude was supposed to be 20 or say in his past life, but he seems about as educated as a middle schooler with the manners of a child. Hopefully, he gains a bit of maturity in the coming books

Fun simple and quick read. This was a short read, and the language used was easy. the dialog between the characters was fluid. The new character Philia, introduced at the very end of the previous novel, plays a bigger and cute roll. Pomera is still comical, while Kanata, the main character, is still OP. What separates this from other isekai is Lunaere; she is OP and stalking Kanata because she is a tsundere character. This novel is more of a comdey than anything else.
