Seems pretty good to me. I like the npcs becoming sentient type stories.
I also like that main character seems pretty clueless yet inteligent.
Anyway give it a read
A simple story, but a funny one

It's the story of a NPC guard gaining sentience, and trying to do his job better.
That's all...
He's a battlemaniac with a narrow spirit (Mission: Guard the keep, redo, try again, and again...) and so far that's all.
In the future he can become far more than just a guard, and that's what can be really interesting (nop, not trying to put pressure on the author... 🤗).
It's not as flamboyant than many stories, but it interest me and I followed it 😁
was good timewaster. got worse

It started of with a standared npc awakens in a game story. The system is kinda wierd but i guess its acceptable.
The MC meets a other guard who also awakens names crystal. They eventual argue because mc wants to stay and guard keep. Crystal is like no thanks freedom! Then we return to mc fighting invaders untill suddnly we are fourced to endure the Crystal point of view. it does not really seem to have a purpose just occasional a chapter from her point of view that has nothing ot do with the story comes up rather boring and annoying to say the least. Okey the way MC interacts with Frost awakened guard number 2 is fun. deals with him like a subordinate.
Then a bunch of stuff happenes for as far as i can tell no reason. The perpetual blizzzard they are in for some reason starts freezing them to death. so they head inside. After bullshiting there way in with MC system bullshit. they go to get debriefied because MC created shifts with MC system bullshit. MC then gets annoyed and attacks the Debrifer in his own office... GENIUS.
He gets thrown in dungeon and kills the other prisoner. We then get treated to what feels like 10 chapters of dungeon POV and Crystal POV and someother guy that i started skimying over POV. Then the entire system is changed because the author felt like it. I now dont want to read any more. Need to actually keep writing the story not just a bunch of events at least thats what it reads like to me.
Good luck to the author
A great story that actually make sense

Reviewed at: Author to reader #i'm not going to bother
i have read about half the posted chapters (45+)
still waiting on the story to develop a plot
the fact it is on hiatus makes me think as soon as i find one the series will end and then ill just be upset, or after 90some chapters it still \wont have one
Simple but good

This story here doesnt do too much, honestly. It plays its card straight, and there aren't too many points that I can original, But... it works nonetheless. I just loved it, no matter what parts may have been inspired from other stories.
5/5 from me. I can't say anything bad about this.
nice fun story

So. Overall, I like it. Some people may not, but they are wrong. Ignore them.
Style: it's funny. Kane does a good job of keeping it interesting and engaging. And funny. Good job Kane.
Story: Not too much has actually happened so far, but I feel like the slow pacing fits the story premise, so it's all good.
Grammar: Mwah. Love it. So many times an otherwise decent story is completely ruined for me by crappy grammar. Not here. Grammars great. Keep it up Kane.
Characters: I'm not too far in yet, so nothing special has happened in regards to character development, but the base is there, and I'm ready to see which way they'll be taken.
In short: Good Job!
Keep it up. You write, I will read.
Short but a good light read

While this story started off good it doesnt deviate quite a bit by the end and goes from measured to a bit rushed but overall a good light read, no qualms besides the lack of detail and length of the chapters.
A light-hearted novel with light-hearted characters and premise.

The thing about npc novels most of the time is that they fail on the realism part. This doesn't really. Which makes it make a lot more sense. A couple of things though, the guards use slang every now and then and not just like {Guard} slang but American English slang. Kinda takes away from the story.
Characters are likable and easy to connect to. The read doesn't take a lot of mental energy, it's something that you can just sit down click on, and just... read.
I recommend it.
