    This is the best novel on this site. Don’t get me wrong, I’m no baseball superfan. Had no clue about the game before I started reading, but this story hooked me in from the beginning to the latest chapter. The characters are fleshed out so well and feel realistic. Everyone has basic empathy and common sense. Even the family drama every once in a while is appropriately handled. I cannot explain how happy this story makes me. And don’t get me started on the realistic yet interesting family dynamics of all the characters in the novel and how it shapes their personalities. The events all come and go in a steady pace as to not overwhelm the reader and there are nuances to each character that fluctuate with their development as they encounter new obstacles in their lives. The author is genuinely some sort of literary god. The writing is superb and the main character isn’t some edgy overpowered kid with no development. The story is slow but I savor every second. Every step of the way and each part of Jake’s journey feels special and I truly hope that the author doesn’t drop this novel. If you’re still wondering if you should read it, just do. You won’t find another story better than this one.

    How do you know it's being translated into American English? What about British English? Australian English? Welsh English? English is the right term to use. Also, American is not a language. It's a nationality. You can only say American English, not simply American if you are referring to the language.

    Oof it is a subordinate clause so grammatically I guess it makes sense. However, I still think adding a period would sound nicer. No one really writes like that. The sentence is too long anyways which doesn't suit this type of story.

    I actually think this is the most sure way to know that the author is a virgin. Obviously, they've never seen a female attracted to them before XD.

    Aatrox seeing those eyes can't help but get excited and a small smile appeared on his face. The female cultivators who were watching the battle with their eyes glowing could not help panting after seeing that smile on the swordsman's face.

    You know... when people say they're not interested in romance, most say they're asexual, not gay. There are more than 2 sexualities.

    In fact, Syth was not a playboy like his little brother, in fact, he never showed any interest in opposite sex, he always devoted his life to training and becoming strong, for him strength equaled power, he had no interest in ruling the empire, he just wanted to become the strongest.

    Uh because this does nothing to progress the story or really characterize the character? It's an oddly detailed sentence about someone's touch that establishes what's already been established. They're manly. We get that. We do not need this creepy inner monologue about how it seems like a man's touch.

    Perhaps, without seeing, it felt like a man touch.

    Then don't make the MC have these stupid thoughts. Don't bother bringing up how much he wants to save people if he's not actually going to do his best to save them.

    I was saying this more to myself as I was reminded of the deaths of my parents and many more people at the hands of these beasts. I reminded myself once more that I was doing all this to never experience the feeling of cowardice and powerlessness again. If continuing to grow my strength was the way to do that, then I will continue rising until I reach an unshakable position

    I never said you should drop the story. I was explaining what most people do when confronted with this sort of bs. You drop a comment and leave.

    Yeah that's kind of why I put the 150 there in parentheses.

    ??? It doesn't mean I'm triggered just because I wrote a paragraph. I wanted to do the math and logically explain why I think the author is wrong and unrealistic.

    Lol someone saying that people are overreacting when you're the actual one overreacting. No one is foaming from the mouth or saying that women are just as strong as men. People have been pretty chill about this, so if you think this is serious, you should go on social media. Trust me, you find stuff like this, make a comment, and drop the story. No one's triggered except for you.

    How old are you? This isn't a matter of who the good and bad guys are. The world isn't black and white. And when a person saves your life, you thank them. You're grateful that you're not dead. I'd say that someone saving a life is much more than someone defending another person.

    I was taken back when she said this as my mind was only observing the situation and acting only when I needed to. I replied to her with a smile "I became stronger than this guy just yesterday if you can believe it, and didn't exactly know how much stronger so I was testing the waters"

    I can't comment much on the saying since I'm not from India, but if I follow your logic, I should know more about everything since I'm from a modern place. I'm sure that you know that's not possible. There are things that a caveman would be more knowledgeable than me in. And considering that rural areas have more wildlife and agriculture, you would actually be more knowledgeable than me on the subject. Ugh. This conversation is reminding me of an extremely long argument I had with an incel. There have been people in the comment section that have been very helpful in giving me a respectful answer and you don't happen to be one of them. Just don't sound like an arrogant prick right off the bat and you won't get an insulting answer back. (And yes, I just got tired of this conversation)

    ... The story says that it's the world's fault and I'm agreeing. Where the **** did you get that it's the woman's fault?

    No, I just happen to live in a civilization where chickens are only found in captivity. If anything, I'd say that you're the caveman living in the wild. Also, the saying is "living under a rock." Polish up on your English, will you?

    It's actually *are because "to be" with "you" is never conjugated into anything other than "are".
