/ Fantasy / The Seeker of the Flames
Synopsis
Adin the Immortal, no one could forget this name. He was the Demon King and the bringer of death, torture, disease, destruction, suffering, and pain, the compilation of every evil and cruelty in the world. The stories of his unbelievable wickedness had spread throughout the universe. Everyone wished to kill him and end this insufferable pain. Many different groups were sent to finish him off, though none of them returned. His face remained a mystery for the free people since no one had escaped from his slaughters and dark dungeons.
After a very long life of raping and massacring and enslaving the Humans, even the cries of the innocent people couldn't satisfy him and make his life less boring. He was tired of everything; he wanted to die, but even he himself couldn't end his life.
He decided to search the world alone, trying to find a way to die. It was the beginning.
The beginning of the Demon King's long journey to death.
//Note: The main tags of the story are [Fantasy] and [Comedy] with both [Drama] and [Action], but there will be a fair amount of [Serious] and [Tragic] moments too. There won't be any Harem! Everything related to +18 stuff will be there just as a JOKE! There's also going to be romance, though it will start late in the story (After the first volume).
I really respect my readers' opinions, and thus I hope you tell me which parts you hate and which parts you like; it really helps me to understand what you want and give you guys a better read.//
(Chapter length is around 1k~1.3k. I will be releasing 1 chapter per day. However, there'll be one week of a break after every half volume.)
** And the cover is not mine. I tried to find the artist but couldn't. So please tell me if you know his/her name.**

I'm impressed by your writing style. The prose is really clean, flowing and easy to understand. If there are mistakes, I didn't find any. But I'm here for the story and not for errors. The scenery is beautifully laid out and described with words that paint a picture and not just tell the story. The events progress at a good speed. It has high and low moments which gives you time to get to know and connect with the characters and their surroundings. Extra points for the awesome names and the cool cover. I added it to my library and I'll continue reading it because it's one of the best stories on WN.
A shameless review from the author! I believe this novel is the bestestestestestestestestestestestest novel in the history of mankind! I'd give it 9999999/5 score if I could—No, I'd give it ∞/5 if it were possible, but since I can't, I will just give a 5/5.
Writing a review but I'm not the best at this kinds of things so I'm going too keep it short. In my opinion if you want to read this story try to not read it all in one day, try to read it slowly everyday and you will find it enjoyable.
All hail demon king. It's a good story. I really enjoyed reading it. You see a lot of funny stuff happening with exciting events. This novel has a lot of potential so I'm waiting for more chapters. Everyone should give it a go!
I like your style, Author! I'm definitely adding your book to my Reading List! Violence! I love it! Humor! I love it! If I had one complaint, in the few chapters I've read, is that all of the interesting stuff is hidden behind worldbuilding. Your prologue was pretty cool. Chapter 2 was really dry. Chapter 3 was AMAZING. It's better when you mix worldbuilding into action, like in Chapter 7 with Freya's attacks. I love the bored demon king/slightly dumb MC trope; it's incredibly fun to read about. I love the 'theres no way he can be X' trope. It's so satisfying seeing the faceslap. You're doing a great job, Author! I'm looking forward to the incredibly violent end to Adin's journey!
The core of the plot is how the mc is bored and is seeking a way to die. He's a character that's beyond op in their world. The concept is such that the story is bound to end after 40-50 chapters since there's not much to write for such a narrow plot point. But, I see that the author has inserted interesting nuances into the plot that would make the story flow interestingly and also complicate the plotline. It is a story that starts as something simple like the manga 'Helck' but becomes increasingly complex as the story progresses. Now, there are certain points that I felt jarring when reading the chapters. * First of all, the description of the character appearances are way too detailed. When I read a story, I want to immerse myslf into it, filling the missing bits and pieces to relate the story to my own flow. But, here, I wasn't able to experience such a thing. When i'm reading, the characters are already completely defined (like a movie0, so it doesn't trigger my imagination. *A similar thing can also be said to the background. Too much data decreases my imagination, so at the end of the day, I was just blindly reading through the chapters. I advice the author to decrease the amound of description of the characters and background (leave small bits and pieces as blank so that we readers can fill them ourselves and feel like we also belong in that world) Grammar: Grammar is quite good, i couldnt find any faults with it except a few typos. i wouldnt have even noticed them if i wasnt paying attention to mistakes like a hawk. Conclusion: This is a good read for people with less imaginative power since everything here is presented in detail like a movie.
I won't go into an analysis of the novel and the work done by the author. I find there to be no need for such a pointless task. Instead, I want to tell the author to keep working hard because I feel like this story has the potential to be front-page material and something that can reach the top ranking. One of those few rare stories that you just know will become one of the best novels on this website. Never stop releasing this beauty and if you ever need help, I'll be willing to help you. Then when this story reaches the top I could say that I helped too. Good luck author
It has interesting characters and is well written. It has some anime tropes in it that you may or may not like though for example a Masacistic pervert ext. The story also develops rather slowly compared to novels centered more around action.
Impressive story. The synopsis caught my eye first. The cover is nice. Grammar is good. I liked the characters including the side characters. The world-building is wonderful. I found the mc both funny and intriguing.
Easily one of the top tier fantasy novels you can find on Webnovel. I can see how you gained this many views in a short lapse of time. The protagonist, Adin, is very unique. It feels like Saitama from One Punch Man and a depressed teenager had a baby, and Adin was the result of that weird intercourse. Of course, not one story is perfect, and I can see some mistakes here and there, but overall, it's a good read.
I didn't want to give a review yet but since Author asks for it before story gets stablized enough, then I have no choice. Writing quality is great, I've not seen any problem yet. It's smooth and understandable and I visualize what's happening. Updates are fine, but I'd like to have more chapters. 1 per day is less when the length is like this. Characters are well designed and I can feel them and understand them. World is well built and I can see how you're showing patience to give us information along with the other parts of story. I like how you put different information about the world between events. However, I didn't like how it just jumped off from one scene to another. When I come to get used to one event, it just ends and another one begins. Especially when you started that Thunder Plateau arc. But I cannot say for sure since it's just the beginning. Sorry I cannot give 5/5 review (I hope Adin's not going to see me boring for that :p) but I will give another review as story goes on and I'm sure I can give a better one right then. Overall, it's so far so good. Keep up the good work and release more chapters!

Seriously, Adin's reactions and thoughts never fail to make me laugh. It's hilarious how he only cares about dying and sees everything boring. Yet it gets a little bit boring after hearing him say boring all the time, LOL. But it's a great work. I was going to wait a little bit more to give a review to see if you're going to drop it or keep it stable. The world background has so many things and I'm kinda curious about them. The kingdoms, infernals, and oracle those are all interesting to me. Writing Quality, Character Design, World Background, and Story Development are all right, although story devlopment looks a bit but I think we should wait and see things go further to decide about it. The only problem is releasing schedule that I expect to be higher since chapters aren't long. I'm sure there'll be more, if this story doesn't dropped. Just keep it up and don't drop it. Because I've seen so many good stories getting dropped after getting published for a short time. I hope it's not gonna be one of them.

Lol! This is kinda weird. I don't know what I should feel after reading this, but there's no doubt that the author is an expert in making characters interesting. I liked how things are going on. I noticed no grammatical errors in your writing. The writing quality is absolutely perfect. Keep up the good work!
It started really good and there were some good chapters after that. I'm bringing my expections high since this novel shows great potential. Let's hope there will be more great chapters. It's too soon to say, but the description talks more about Liora than the story itself (at least until now). I've not come to see Liora as a main character yet, everything just goes around Adin. But as I said, it's just too soon. Hope there'll be more chapters and author's going to speed up his release rate.

This is a very unique feeling book to me. The idea of having powerful people who are childish as times is rather terrifying, but The Seeker of the Flames takes this to the nth degree. We get skulls. Demons. Spikes. Actual evil. But more importantly, it's the way the author surprises us, either by going further than expected or by deviating from the story path I expected that make this such a thrilling read. Definitely adding this to my library :)
