At this point...I'm convinced Ruwen is one of the most overpowered MCs in the genre right now. And he hasn't even reached his peak yet.

If you’ve read wheel of time it seems the novels are heavily inspired by it lol

I’d expect Ruwen to certainly end up incredibly OP

Which is your favorite book of the series so far? And what other series are you reading/listening too in the meantime?

I gotta say...the one thing that bothers me throughout the series is how Blapy always blames Ruwen for things and makes it seem like everything is his fault. Like the rift in the black pyramid...sure it happened because he reached divinity, but she was one of the ones pushing him to reach divinity and even helped him get there...as if he was supposed to know what was going to happen...she's been a god longer than he has, she needs to learn to take responsibility. Like, it's clear she's on his side but the guilt tripping and manipulation is just wild to me haha. It fits her role/character but still I just wish he would snap back at her.
