As of chapter 21 Aside from the drop gorgeous art and beautiful ladies, the mc is utterly an idiotic useless guy that plot armour saves just because he's the mc and the story is rushed as fk with short context. 

Story: Very basic and full of holes, the pacing is very high and it takes a bit of brain power to understand what is happening. There is no progression towards climax just the climax nonstop which is utterly rushed. The arcs have no depth and are pretty plain. 

Art: Honestly 90% would have dropped the story by the 2nd chapter if it wasn't for the art, especially for the lady's art that is so sexy and charming. It would have been a 10/10 if only the girls were hard to distinguish, but the men are easy since each has their own unique face and hair type. The ladies feel and look the same with different body shapes to a certain degree. 

The fights... yeah not much cardiography or excitement here it's plain and nothing unique as of chapter 21. 

Characters: As of chapter 21 there is no background explaining anything regarding any characters even the mc, there is no character story, depth or progression. Especially the mc whos the biggest idiot who doesn't learn from his past failures and is always useless only wining against trash thugs and being saved by plot armour during any life-threatening moments and believe me because of his idiocy as of chapter 21 he had heaps of life-threatening moments already. 

So far it's meh, frankly only reading because of the pretty ladies and hoping for some romance. 4/10 once I catch up to chapter 40 il update the review if I change my mind, but so far it's a waste of a read with amazing content out there.

When it comes to the art and the fighting choreography, it is 10/10 and that is the only thing carrying the whole manhwa with its weak ass storyline.The plot is totally messed up where they are introducing a bunch of characters in just 10 chs without even bothering to explain anything at all,which creates misunderstandings later on.It has a lot of waifu materials and great action sequences,but without a good backup in story its feels hollow.

It can be given a try.

Reading the first 10 chapters, i still don't know what is going on, the art is great and the fight scenes are awesome, but no introduction to the stroy and every chapter ends with 2 or 3 characters saying what seems to be important, like dude explain before you intreduce more characters.

I think something is missing from the start so maybe check with the novel if there's a novel before you read this.
