The Rise of the Black Plain-Authors Opinion

Hi there! I am the author, and I am here to discuss some relevant points that can affect this story.

First, I want to say that this chapter can be helpful for any reader who has been interested in the idea of ??the story and wants to know a little more before deciding whether to start this reading.

So, I'm going to talk about some points that I believe are necessary for a fantasy story like mine. Anyway, let's get down to business.

(Don't mind the order. It's not necessarily the most important thing or anything. It's just random.)

1- Relations / Harem: Like many authors here on this site, I am also a reader. And that kind of relationship, at least in many of the works I read, follows a path that significantly disappoints me.

I wouldn't say I like to follow stories where the MC picks up a bunch of random wives along the way, abandoning them almost instantly after a brief contact, leaving, or forgetting them until nearly the end of the story.

Also, I'm not too fond of that almost all beautiful women in the story fall in love with the MC or that the MC wants to marry nearly every woman he touches. Anyway, don't expect anything like this in this story.

Even in a fantasy story, human relationships need to be as close to reality as possible. For example, it's not realistic that a character doesn't interact sexually with other people in this work. So, even if an author doesn't want to detail the MC's 'achievements, I still believe it's crucial to say that this character has his desires and tries to satisfy himself in some way.

Not only that, sex doesn't require love, in my opinion. Hell! I know people who don't even like each other and still have fun together... So, having some casual relationships is very positive for the story.

But like many men, I also like the idea of ??the harem, but nothing too extreme. I believe that each wife of the MC has to have her space and shouldn't disappear from the chapters for a long time.

2- Cultivation: I read many stories in which sometimes the established rules seem to follow the needs of the MC. Or even there is no prior explanation of how things work.

Honestly, I wouldn't say I like these types of development. For me, each rule created is inviolable. It cannot be circumvented to satisfy the MC's wishes. Of course, the author can create alternatives, but this must be done from the beginning, leaving a gap that allows this without a hole formed in the story.

I also believe that differentiating strength at each stage of cultivation is crucial. I've seen novels in which the character seems to be very quickly fighting against people of the 'x' level, but when the MC gets stronger and faces opponents of the same 'x' level, it seems to be many times more difficult.

I don't understand such a thing. That is why creating an energy system based on some mathematical law can help bring the story coherence since this can prevent the author from making inevitable mistakes.

3- Development of the story: another problem in many of the stories I read is in this regard. When you analyze certain 'arcs'/volumes, things go very well within those chapters, but there... Much of that is often thrown away or wasted. Sometimes, these novels seem to have the sole purpose of strengthening the MC, as if they were large pieces of filling.

I think it's disappointing when that kind of situation happens. You meet a new character, learn a little about their reality and... Baam... The story forgets them, and all that no longer matters...

"..."

I, as a reader, really like to see certain characters. That is why story planning should be done to prevent this type of situation from happening. Sometimes, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing certain characters...

4- MC development: another issue closely related to the previous one. Sometimes I see MCs saying they care about those related to him, friends, companions, and family. Still, all I see are individuals who don't seem to have much gratitude or a sense of responsibility.

The guy enters a sect, gets stronger, and sometimes receives excellent support from those places, and then there comes the point where he leaves and doesn't look back... 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

And look, in many of these stories, talent is almost worthless since the external resources will make the main characters so strong... 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

"..."

So, why not help the one who welcomed you when you were weak? Sometimes they even return, almost at the end of the story, when the authors no longer want to spend a lot of time on these texts... This ends up not being satisfactory when I see it in my readings.

Anyway, these are some of my opinions about what should be in a novel. I'm just an amateur writer who decided to start writing his own story after reaching his share of disappointments in the texts I read.

While I write, I will try to avoid making the same mistakes as my predecessors, but you know how it's, right? I'm just a human... Oh! English isn't my first language, so there may be some problems with the grammar...
