The art is great, characters are likeable, plot is nothing unique, but it's entertaining,
If you are familiar with ID the Greatest Fusion Fantasy or Dark Mage. You'll know the setting for this one.
Basically a super strong martial artist from an Eastern Wuxia Fantasy World gets transported into a Medieval Western Fantasy with dragons, elves, and magical wizards.
A lot of the fun in the story is seeing how people react to how martial arts being a form of magic. And the main character trying to make sense of magic as some form of ki (energy).
The only thing I'd say that's negative so far is that if you love overpowered characters then this probably won't be the kind of story for you. Because the guy has to relearn all his skills again after being hit by a curse.
Also, the inclusion of 15 feet tall magical mechs (called golems) is really strange. It doesn't feel like it fits the setting at all.
Otherwise, it's pretty good. You have a party of adventurers going out and doing random adventures and him meeting all sorts of dragons and dignitaries. Also the artwork itself is above most manwha out there.
I'd say if you like fantasy in general. It's pretty good.
