A short continuation with an abrupt ending, uncomfortable themes, and no growth for the protagonist
TL;DR
Book 2 continues with many of the same issues from the first: awkward phrasing, grammar and word choice issues, lacking consequence for the protagonist, and odd behaviors from characters who are canonically supposed to be children. The world feels increasingly hollow and unrealistic as characters exist in one of three states: falling in love with Faith, praising Faith, or being punched by Faith. As a result, Faith doesn’t drive the story; instead, the story just happens to her and she’s along for the ride. There are some improvements to character voice and individuality, however, it’s not enough to offset the growing number of issues. Given the cost for the rest of the series, its structure, and its content, I won't continue this series.
Review
First, this book is short; around 150 pages. The length wouldn't be a problem if the ending felt like a resolution, but it isn’t. Instead, it concludes midway through a tea party scene with a weblink to WebNovel to encourage readers to download an app to read more. At best, this is an arbitrary place to end, and at worst, it was done in an effort to drive readers into purchasing the next chapter or book to at least see how the current scene plays out. More than likely, the story was pulled from WebNovel and cut into lengths which could justify a $5 price tag. The ending only fell where it did because it matched the selected length.
A more natural ending which would have felt satisfying would have been to conclude the capital city arc and leave Faith at the entrance to the magic academy. With 11 more books in the series, finishing the full story at this point would cost around $50, and if each installment follows this format of ending abruptly with little resolution, it’s difficult to remain motivated to continue.
Just doing some basic math, for 13 books, there somewhere around 2200 pages, for a total price of $65 dollars. You could buy the first four books of Sanderson's Stormlight Archive on Kindle for $51 and have ~4500 pages to read which are all professionally edited. Sanderson isn't a good comparison in terms of genre or fame, but my point is, for a similar price point, there are other series you can get which offer more content and better polish.
Editing and Style
Unfortunately, the same issue from the first book persists: awkward word choice, grammar mistakes, and stiff sentence construction. It gives the impression the book was lifted straight from the web novel, given a cursory or automated editing pass, chopped into publishable lengths, and then posted for sale as e-books. Occasional mistakes are understandable, but when they remain consistent, it starts to distract from the story.
On the plus side, the stylistic choices the author makes have improved from the first book. Characters are starting to develop unique and distinct voices; however, they still don’t feel differentiated enough to be their own people.
There are still challenges with letting the characters show how they feel about things. Most times, they will outright explain themselves, which still makes the dialog feel mechanical. For example, at one point, Faith has to directly turn down the advances of another character; Adel’s response is to directly explain how the rejection will be a shocker because he’s always liked by other girls. The author almost never allows for things to be left to subtext, and that leaves the story weaker.
Tone and Character Behavior
For me, what undermines the story the most is the way the characters behave and are portrayed, particularly in light of their age. The main cast of Faith and her friends are all around 12-13 years old, yet despite their age, the situations they end up in and their reactions to those situations do not feel reflective of what kids their age would be dealing with. The author does attempt to justify this by showing other children working as maids for Faith and explaining it’s not uncommon in the setting for kids to start working at a young age. Yet, it still feels jarring. Faith, as a reincarnated person from Earth, could reasonably be expected to have some sort of reaction to the cultural differences, especially when they involve violence or romantic pressure, but she doesn’t seem concerned by it at all.
This story has the framing of a harem isekai, which I don’t mind in principle; however, the relentless focus on marriage between characters this young becomes deeply uncomfortable. Nearly every chapter in this book includes some narration from Faith on her desire to remain single, yet the plot continuously puts her in positions where she is being pursued by others, whether it be Adel, the crown prince, Dollen, or as the story hints, even Sophie. Adel, for her part, quickly shifts from reliable friend to a possessive creep who, at one point, licks Faith’s saliva from her hand (yes, this really happens).
Even if these characters are supposed to be falling into an anime-style trope the author enjoys, they feel out of place and inappropriate when the cast is made up of children. It would be one thing if Faith commented on it, or acted concerned or put off by their behavior, but she doesn’t seem bothered, which only makes things feel weirder.
Lack of Consequence
As with the first book, Faith's reactions to conflict are almost always violence. Sometimes her reactions are justifiable and sometimes not, but no matter the case, she never faces any form of consequence for her behavior. No matter what she does or how extreme her response, there is never fallout or repercussions.
As an example, about midway through the book, Faith’s new friend Sophie is kidnapped off the street. Faith immediately gives chase. During the chase sequence, we learn killing is against one of three major laws and results in swift punishment without trial. So, Faith must be very careful not to kill any of the kidnappers lest she face severe punishment.
She arrives at the estate of the noble responsible for the kidnapping, breaks in, “accidentally” kills the first kidnapper, attacks the nobleman’s guards, destroys sections of the estate, and threatens the noble directly. After rescuing Sophie and returning home, Faith faces zero accountability. The fact that she broke the first law against killing is immediately forgotten. There’s no exploration of alternative resolutions, no legal fallout, no commentary from anyone else that would criticize Faith. It’s just, “Faith did the right thing. The end.”
The absence of accountability strains both realism and immersion. In any world with a functioning aristocracy, a 12-year-old vigilante wouldn’t walk away from such action unscathed, no matter how well-intentioned. Even if the noble she attacked was corrupt and disliked, the system around him would demand at least a symbolic response to protect its own authority. Not here. Everyone praises Faith, and the story moves on.
As further example, in the final scene of the book, Faith attends a tea party hosted and attended exclusively by noble girls of various rank. Within short order of Faith's arrival, one girl makes a snide remark about Faith, and Faith immediately punches the girl, breaking her nose. No one in Faith’s group reacts. The hostess even apologizes to Faith and has the offending girl carried off. There’s no warning, no scolding, no social backlash, not even a reminder that, “Hey, you can’t go around punching nobles”.
It’s not about whether Faith is right or wrong. It’s that no one seems to care one way or the other. Because of that, Faith doesn’t undergo growth as a character. There’s no tension, no fear of failure, and no restraint. She doesn’t need to be clever or thoughtful because brute force always works, and no one holds her accountable. Even her overpowered status feels unearned and unnecessary.
Conclusion
The end result is a story which feels hollow. The characters all fall into three categories: falling obsessively in love with Faith, praising Faith for being strong or smart, or getting punched by Faith.
This series feels like it has potential, but considering:
* the lackluster and arbitrary ending,
* the creepy and uncomfortable scenes around courtship and marriage among children, and
* the disconnect between Faith's actions and the lack of consequences,
I won't continue further in this series, and I can't recommend it to others.

Too short for a full price litrpg. Definitely needs a lot of editing or maybe just someone to spell check and make sure the names are right.
I think I will stop on book 2, while I like the book it’s too much money for how short each book is. If they were bundled like the first book or on Kindle unlimited like similar then I would continue but not worth it.
The story is good enough and entertaining but it feels like the author forgets what he gives the MC so she never uses anything but brute force and oddly specific magic. A few items the author clearly forgot and had to mention in following chapter after probably getting called out, the analyze skill on humans, her wings (she literally never flys), having to level up to get “skill points”, the fairy, and her “bodyguard”. For someone who can change into a full dragon she seeming has spent less that 1 minute as a dragon… let that sink in.
Also, she’s a sociopath, like not a big issue with it as murderhobos can be entertaining but at least mention the fact she committed a genocide of hundreds of thousands and never really thought about it.
Also the stats are pointless and make no sense, which isn’t uncommon in a litrpg but seeing as she is literally the only thing mentioned with stats (maybe the slime did too but it made no impact) at all makes them even more pointless. Occasionally a random monster level is mentioned. Also leveling only when necessary for skill points. For 5 years only leveled a few times, massacre an army single handed good for a few levels… kill a few monsters one night after someone already killed a majority “here’s all the levels you need to be good at trading”
