That is perfectly fine! I hope my earlier message didn’t appear as one large wall of text. I put spaces between my paragraphs to make it easier to read, but it seems like Webnovel removes the spaces when I post it.

Since this is a science fiction fantasy novel, I had a question. Are you aiming for [hard science fiction] or [soft science fiction]? In hard science fiction, technology takes center-stage. In these stories, scientific concepts are explained in great detail which helps to provide scientific realism. Of course, the scientific aspect can sometimes get in the way of character development and plot. In soft science fiction, technology and facts aren't as prevalent, and there is more focus on the way and less on the how. -------------------------- On a side note, I thought it would be interesting to talk about terraforming. Even hundreds of years in the future, I think the ethics, logistics, economics, politics, and methodology of altering an environment on an extraterrestrial world will still be a major issue. Ignoring the political and ethical issues, the economics of such projects would be massive and the infrastructure would have to be built from scratch. For example, to terraform our moon, you would need to toss about 100 comets the size of Halley's to create a breathable atmosphere. Can you image the energy intensity and costs of that? I also do not think every planet/moon in our solar system will ever be fully terraformed no matter how much time has passed. The moons of the gas giants are too far away to receive sufficient sunlight and heat for any sustainable life and atmosphere. In the Expanse (novel series), which is set in the year 2350 and humanity has colonized most of the solar system, Mars (a former colony of Earth now a superpower rivaling it) has not even been terraformed. Most of their inhabitants live in domes and underground cities. The same is said for those on the Moon. I think it would be more likely for the solar system to be colonized but domes and underground cities being the dominant factor. I wanted to talk about terraforming in general because it is a fascinating topic. Well, any topic about astronomy, science, and outer space is fascinating to me to be honest. If you haven't seen The Expanse, I would highly recommend you check it out. You can watch the TV series, which is just as good, or read the book series. The Expanse is one of the most realistic science fiction stories you can find out there that sticks to hard science and realism while making a good plot and great characters.

Hey author-san! I thought of a cool idea/scenario you could implement similar to a side-story. You don't have to since it's your novel, but I think it would add some spice. In this idea/scenario, one of Vahn's clones gets cut off by a mysterious force way more powerful than his body which he can't connect to. The clone would be the main character of this side-story. The twist is that the clone loses most of its powers and becomes as weak as Vahn was at the start of the Fate arc when he just left Danmachi (of course, you adjust it whatever you feel like) without the inner world. I am suggesting this because it would be boring if he was just extremely powerful. I think adding challenges gives interest and meaning rather than just dealing with every problem in a single punch. The clone arrives at some world, like, I don't know, Made in Abyss. I am suggesting this one because I read the entire manga and watched the anime, and I'm in love with it right now. The show is very dark with body horror, so Vahn bringing light into this world would be interesting. Perhaps the Abyss' curse is powerful enough to block off the connection? Of course, my thought pattern would be to throw this clone into a random anime/manga/movie that is not overly popular that other fanfic novels have explored. For example, a recent one like Scarlet Nexus, an old one like Berserk, or maybe even a dark one like Madoka Magica. I am certain no fanfic writer has sent their MC into one of these worlds. Anyway, if you are interested, you could implement this side-story idea into your current novel, or even a new novel if you ever make one. If you don't like my idea, you can just ignore my comment entirely. It's just a random idea I came up with to spice things up.
