The novel is a nice read, not really funny and relationships between characters seems a little forced.

I can't rate this novel more that 4/5 stars and the fourth star is only because i completed the novel. The novel was good when it started for me even with some noticeable issues and some rushed development, I was still fine with it but the ending was what deducted stars from my book.

Spoiler below, read at your own risk

a lot of life's were lost and a lot of citys destroyed but they human won only because of our MC .

MC isn't happy with the ending that to many lifes were lost and choose to reverse time and go and fight with the other Monarchs alone, with no ideal if he would win or not.

We know that the longer the battle drags on the stronger he becomes, it still takes him 27 years to finish the war and return to earth.

Now my problem with the end is that it made every body fight loss meaning. Our MC can only handle the shadow Monarch powers because of the training he put himself through, meaning that the others with the rulers power in them could get almost as strong as our MC before he completely became a Monarch since he too will be able to handle the rulers power and this in turn could mean that others with powers can get stronger too, even after reversing time other creatures are still coming to earth (author explained that it's because of our MC powers) remember Monarchs still came to earth even without having any magic on earth.

Our MC going back in time throws away everything humans have work. If I may remind humans grow stronger by our experienced, humans would have mourned, grown, rebuilt. Humans would have training to make sure this doesn't happen again no matter how weak we are, one of humans strongest Instinct is to survive.

The author disregarded a lot of things but what I hated the most was that the author disregarded humans and the little power they fought to get just because they didn't get cheats like MC who is petty much no longer human.

The world revolved around MC and because of that, it never showed how amazing humans can be especially when cornered

I ranted a bit but this is my honest view and after saying everything I feel like this novel deserves  3/5 stars

7/10 story
9/10 art
5/10 characters
7/10 overall

I kind of agree with your point about how rewinding time just made every other characters' efforts go to naught. It would've been nice if they were included in the fights between dimensions somehow (especially the Rulers' vessels). However, something to take note of is how MC is strong only because he IS a Monarch, as compared to the others who are just vessels, and would disintegrate after borrowing the powers of the Rulers.
