After the issue with the Red Dragonkins was resolved, Rockin thought he’ll be able to take it easy for a while, but once again, he was wrong. After Lilfira’s wonderful performance and the Rockstars Clan leader showing off his strength during the Rites of Strength, a lot of adventurers became eager to join Rockin’s clan as well.
Unfortunately, with the Rockstars Clan being such a small clan and not having its own headquarters, it was starting to become more and more difficult for Rockin to juggle all the balls that were constantly thrown at him. That’s when he realized he’d need some help again, turning to the one person who had helped him create his clan in the first place. After listening to what kind of challenges Rockin was facing now, Meribel Willmint was more than happy to assist him with his clan’s matters again, not for free of course, however.
Alragus, the bison blacksmith who was also a member of the Rockstars Clan, approached Rockin with a request of his own. As it turned out, in order for Alragus to increase his Blacksmithing skill he needed to increase his own level first. As a result, Alragus asked if Rockin could take him to the dungeon so Alragus could level up, to which Rockin happily agreed.
Once Virghel, the badger beast-woman who already had feelings towards Rockin, heard that he’d be going to the dungeon again, she insisted on Rockin taking her with him as well. Rockin, knowing he had promised Virghel to take her on a date as a reward for winning the monster killing competition during their previous dungeon dive, yet not delivering on his promise due to constantly being busy, could not refuse her request. Having a date inside the dungeon full of monsters seemed like an unconventional idea, with Rockin being Rockin, he might just think of something to help him hit two birds with one stone after all.
I Don’t Want To Level Up (book 5) is the fifth book in the series, which is a work of fiction. It includes fantasy isekai, gamelit, LitRPG elements, dungeon exploration, unconventional (harem) relationships and some adult sexual content.
I've grown to like this series, but not love it. This book was pretty good, but it still had some issues that I wasn't that thrilled with.
My biggest issue is how long some scenes drag on for. And the penultimate fight against a dungeon boss, from the time they discover it to the time it dies, was over 100 pages long. It got to the point that I started to skim the fight because it just lasted too long. Having to read the different characters call out their attack names for 100+ pages is nuts.
One woman may or may not have joined the harem, as she has sex with the MC, but that was about the extent of it.
I'm still a fan of the love story in the first book. We seem to be adding a girl a book. Not as much time for each character to develop. I did love that two of the M.C.'s conquest's got together. Not withstanding the cliffhanger at the end the epilogue was good.
