Yes, it’s mostly focused on SoL, so if you want tension-filled battles, this isn’t the novel for you.Low stakes.Some drama.Good fights, but low stakes and fun in tone.Light-hearted story.Modern professions introduced in another world.Comedy mixed with character development (which means you need to give some time for MC to develop too before calling out names for him.)Slow paced
