The writing is so bad. It's like reading a game's user manual after it's been converted to prose. On top of that, this wasn't even run through a spelling/grammar check.
This is going pretty quick, but I'm also skipping large sections which are just a list of the character's stats and explanations of said stats. I don't care about any of those, and skipping hasn't negatively impacted my understanding of the story.

"I began creeping through the woods, carefully, like a creeping thing."
"I...walked into the small cave searchingly."
"Please chose two buffs for yourself at first level!"
I knew this was going to be a Mary Sue/Gary Stu narrative, since it's introduced before Chapter 1 that the character is unbound. I couldn't care less about the character's stats, those lists were easy skims and now I skip them entirely.

"stated the angry demon angrily" is a real thing that the author wrote and kept in the book.
