Just checked it is in chapter 19 where it said his trait triggered causing for him to gain 10 levels and reaching lvl 40.

Back in the underground dungeon, after that boss it said he hit level 40, why the change?

Just a guess, but I think it is talking about the next tier of the skill from novice. The next tier Practitioner will start at rank D.

It's kind of weird how weak the MC seems considering he isn't even fighting a true ruler, when he was able to seemingly easily handle strength boosted rulers in the ruler fight before this one. Plus, stat wise, he should be way above this king.

Why did this get downgraded to S grade from the EX grade it originally was?

Cool, just was curious since I was so used to having an inventory feature with systems. Cool idea for it, so far I am enjoying the novel

Is there any reason he did not or can't store the remaining wolves he hunted during the travel with the merchant in this storage? Could have been a good source of additional income when he sold the 1 wolf pelt earlier.

So far the battle has been very disappointing since he supposedly has 10x quality techniques with 10x the experience supposedly of Nadia, which just those alone should be enough to severely overpower this situation.

This sounds like such a bad idea, everything but strength being at the peak level of a normal human.

Best bet is it is referring to skill level instead of player level since skill is level 4

ah, yes, a skill that can be upgraded is less significant than money that he deemed not much...

Why couldn't he just make the coal using magic through nature with fire magic similar to how he made iron bars near the start?

I'm not sure if it's done yet, but I would find it fun to fuse with pyrokinesis to make it a fire tornado.

Straw is a possible answer.

Reminds me of the novel Becoming Immortal Through Grtting Married. I even double-checked, and the about the book section also has thr same small goal of foundation building in 10 years, stuck at 3rd level qi Refining for 30. The novel mentioned above is on webnovel as well and is a translated series (300+ chapters). This is just based on this first chapter though, which had the same bamboo leaf gang, alchemy base expertise, and first wife generating alchemy experience.

For me, I see it as too much info for these parts since this is all in a simulation not even a full dive one, and the level of detail makes it hard to remember that at times. That's probably the only complaint I have over it.

I am surprised his trinity talent has not come into play yet, so far he only has the 1 'ability' where trinity talent is supposed to give him 3

pure curiosity here, would earth count as a place he had been before for this context? I am assuming no since otherwise he would be able to get Alexa really soon.

and here I thought it would be the 2nd spell he made blink. He hasn't used it since he learned thunder step.

Just looked at the FAQ page, first top up = lvl 10, lvls 10-15 uses super xp obtainable only after getting to lvl 10 (topping up at least 1 time). Daily reading gives 10 super xp, every 5 coins spent 1 super exp.For better details, go Profile/account > FAQ > Level/Privilege tab. I did a basic rundown of the levels 10-15. They also have a line describing how it accounts for prior coins top upped/used
