20 years ago, the century long war between humans and demons was concluded. Six powerful heroes combined their strengths and slayed the First Evil: Demon Monarch, thus bringing peace to the world.
Percival, the firstborn of 2 of the heroes, fights to prove his strength against the unreasonable expectations placed on him. His talents aren't any close to that of his parents, but he decided to try, dedicating his everything. However, the wall of talent remains unshakeable.
On the day of his eighteenth birthday, Percival unlocks a suspicious system that defies the natural order of the world.
[Seven Evils System acquired.]
[The System will prepare you for your role as a future Evil.]
It is then that his journey really begins.
The main character's inner monologue and reaction, reflect well and make you feel connected to him while absorbing you into the story, that making him very relatable as well. The established power system so far is an interesting twist on regular system based power system, and the skills, and different abilities, like the superhiman techniques are creative.
The action stirs up your imagination and creates a clear picture in your head, yet still giving the reader room for interpretation.
In addition to that the usage of the abilities and reactions of the characters, for example the deadpan face the main character usually wear because of his ability affects his relationships and how he feels about himself, built with the correlation between them adds to the flavor, raelictic nature and relationships of the characters.
All in all a great read, even if you're the kind of reader to enjoy action more, even tho there is action in it at the first few chapters there isn't much, yet the characters and their relationships hooks you to the plot without the need to start with a showmanship of action to start you on the adventure, it does it just as well or even better with the simplified plot, and mystery of it at the start. Even tho the story is just at 9 chapters at the current writing of this review, I have great expectations of it and can't wait to keep on reading.
5/5 stars. No notes, only observation and praise.
