A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

I have never made a review for any book ever. I say this to further emphasize just how great this book is. It is one of the best interpretations of a weak to strong story ever made. It seems so simple at first until you realize you’ve hit chapter 48 and it still feels like the growth is right. Most of these stories start off great and then turn to shit but somehow the author has an impeccable sense of writing that FORCES you to be enjoyed. There is almost no exposition yet the world building is great. It feels like I’m learning about the world with the character which is insanely difficult for most authors. Next up the characters are beautifully made, especially our main character. in the most recent chapter (chapter 96) as I was reading about his backstory I thought about how it seems as if he likens using the sword as a substitute for having a family. Lo and behold, right after he says the sword is his family. That type of characterization that made me understand the character so much that I could PREDICT his thoughts has almost never happened to me before. I could keep going on and on about the story but I think this is enough to get you to just start reading it as I wouldn’t want anything to be spoiled for you!

After checking out the manhwa, I immediately had to come find the novel. This type of story isn't particularly uncommon, and I've read a few different manga and LN takes on it. Many of those stories tend to get overly bogged down in the psychological toll of the scenario, though. While that's a fun and interesting aspect to explore, it does get stale after a while. There's very little of that here, though, and only used sparingly and reasonably. The focus of the story is an incredibly thorough breakdown of the main character's growth on the battlefield and his tenacious will to use every loop to become stronger than the last one no matter who tries to bring him down physically or mentally. These stories can be challenging to write because of required determinations on what to include in the repeated days and what to skip over. However, the author does an extremely good job with the pacing and manages to never make it feel repetitive but also never skips ahead in a way that makes it feel like you missed any of the action. As for the loops, if they're taking a psychological toll, then it would be an inverse of the norm in these types of stories. It seems to drive him towards an ever growing madness and fortitude to become stronger. It's a very fun read with an mc more akin to Guts from Berserk (strong, driven, and stoic) than a young man who needs to go through the same personal growth arc you've read a million times. Quite often these stories tend to fall apart a couple hundred chapters in as the writer loses focus and direction but having read what's there so far, I'm pretty confident that won't be an issue here. It's worth the read for sure.

An absolute masterpiece. It has great pacing; the protagonist becomes stronger slowly but surely, purely through his own efforts, and there are no deux ex machina bullshit power ups. Story is great, and I love the worldbuilding. A grungy, low fantasy world where magic is rare and poorly understood. I also like the mystery surrounding the knights, who seem to surpass the limits of human abilities through some unknown method or training unknown to both the characters and the reader.

love this novel, and I never actually read a novel before, this is the first and probably the only one I'll ever read haha, i came after reading the manhwa, love the author work, and I look forward every night to reading the new chapter, hopefully it will keep on being consistent and again, hopefully, the author won't repeat the mistakes he made with "The story of a low-rank soldier becoming a monarch".

Good novel but terrible translator charging hundreds of dollars for unreleased chapters. Imagine paying $1000 to read a book they didn't even write. Shameless. Can find full translation online if you look hard enough with no MTL.

I really can't get enough of this novel. Character Development of MC is always to be looked forward to, dragging all the other characters to develop too! Humor is good enough. I wish updates will be more frequent but that is asking too much. I'm currently 33 years old and hoping to read this novel everyday without end. Hopefully I will read that Enki will be a knight before I die. Thank you Author!

This novel is amazing. I’m up to day with the manhwa for this and it is really good too. Just wondering like where did you learn to write? The writing style is amazing! Actually tell me how you got so good. I need to know!

I came here after reading Manhwa, But in 3 days I read 140 chapters, that is how much I like this novel. I read other novels that the character building is so fast, MC become too much powerful in few chapters.

This novel is very interesting and will pull you in. As long as you can look past what seem to be a few minor translation errors where himself seems to always be typed as “himsfairy” which I couldn’t find a proper explaination for as well as many instances of her and him getting mixed up which can make it confusing to tell who is actually talking or acting sometimes,Although mainly I’d just like to stop seeing himsfairy pop up. But like I said very few errors and a very awsome story so far.

I really enjoy regression stories, this one is definitely worth a read and a top 3 in all regression stories. give it a read although the mc is a bit bleak at times and the mental aspect of regression is a bit downplayed It's still really solid.

This book is absolutely inspiring and wonderful to read. Despite having no innate talent, Encrid grinds through every day to become better and better. The fighting is masterfully written, and I feel as though I'm actually learning about different fighting styles and tactics as I read. The author really seems to have done a lot of research to write this. There are some small issues with the translation in which genders get swapped around, and it takes a little bit to get used to the writing style which seems initially dry, but give it a few chapters and you'll realize that there's nothing better!

Came from the manhwa, haven't tried it. but, going with the merits of the adaptation, this story is nice as fuck. I cannot say to anybody, because the reason I like it so much is that scratches all the itch of my taste. Basically Re:Zero, but instead of a normal dude the Mc is a souls' like character!

História magnífica, a unica coisa que peca é a tradução para português... Rsrs más os personagens, o mundo as batalhas tudo nota maxima. Super recomendo esta leitura. Agora uma coisa é tensa... O protagonista balança a espada o tempo todo, porém na hora H que as personagens femininas estão dando sopa a espada não é utilizada.

Masterpieceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee............................................. .................,.....................................,...........

Encrid, đáng yêu, ngầu lòi, ý chí đỉnh nóc - kịch trần - bay phấp phới. Tuyệt đối không bỏ cuộc, mạnh lên theo từng giai đoạn, không buff bẩn, hiện tại >400ch vẫn chỉ thấy ổng đánh nhau lên trình là chính, gái gú là phù du anh tôi là bất tử. Nhân vật nữ trong truyện cũng rất đỉnh, đặc biệt là bà chị Elf, khứa này hài, vừa hài vừa ngầu. Nhân vật nam tùy từng nhân vật nhưng chung quy lại là không đứa nào ngủ xi đần độn bị mất não cả. Char Dev rất tốt, ít ai mà ghét được quá 10 chương, ý là, nó chết ngắc rồi á =))))) Nói chung là bộ này siêu đỉnh, Encrid xinh đẹp tuyệt vời, bùng choáy, ngầu lòi, đẹp trai, quyến rũ, ý chí siêu mạnh, còn Đội Mad thì hài =)))) Trên ao3 có một fic, postype có bốn fic (không hẳn)(hai fic trả phí) em cầu xin đại thần nào viết thêm đi chứ em thèm thuồng lắm rồi 🐸
