Magic Mirror

Pacing: easy to understand - 9/10 Animation: smooth - 9.5/10 Background: cinematic - 10/10.

Through this episode, we can understand a little bit why the Antigonus family's diary fell into the hands of Welch, Naya and Klein. Welch and Naya died because of the curse of the diary, while Klein (Zhou) "luckily survived". Therefore, Klein became the target of the evil organization and Hannas Vincent designed a trap to interrogate Klein about the diary. But thanks to the gray fog, Klein was lucky to avoid the trap and Vincent was killed. Dunn and Klein went to Vincent's house to investigate, Dunn used his ability to see Vincent's memories but saw the projection of the True Creator.

I am just a dog.

Worldbuilding (10/10): One of the most immersive settings in web fiction. The lore is dense, with secret organizations, hidden histories, and mystical forces structured around tarot cards and "potions."

Plot (9/10): Slow at first, but every detail matters. It evolves from a detective-style story into something vast and cosmic. Foreshadowing is masterfully done - what seems minor early on can become crucial hundreds of chapters later.

Protagonist - Klein Moretti: A rational, clever, and likable character. You root for him not just because he's the MC, but because of how well he grows from a regular man into a true "mystery" himself.

Power System (10/10): Unique "Beyonder Pathways" based on potions and rituals. Every power comes at a cost. It's risky, layered, and makes every advancement feel earned.

Tone and Themes: Gothic, mysterious, and often philosophical. If you like the vibes of Sherlock Holmes, Lovecraft, or Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, you'll feel at home.

The episodes have been getting better and better as the series goes on. The pacing has been slowing down and covering more information as well. It's genuinely nice to see as a lord of the mysteries fan who has been reading it since like last year and I'm still on volume 3 because I'm just too busy writing my own novel inspired by it. I actually cannot wait for the last episode and cry once again. Or even the other volume endings.

But these haters bro, they're crying that lotm is doing very well womp womp cry about it, the rating doesnt even matter anyway. And the fact that the other episode are still above 9.0 is laughable. Do better lol.

Lord of the Mysteries isn't just a story-it's a meticulously crafted universe that rewards patience, intellect, and attention to detail. As a fan of both the original web novel and any potential adaptation, I'm baffled by the recent surge in *low-effort 1-star reviews* from accounts with no history. Don't be misled, they are just review bombing it.

The world building is insane, it's like no other.

The details and the story inside a story is just godly. It required patience but trust me it's worth it.

The character developments are just holy peak, you will say if they are the main character. And the MC Klein is my fav of all time. Lord of the mysteries is something I spiritually connect with. It's where my emotions lies.

Hope you people enjoy the novel.

PS. It's being review bombed and we want justice.

Lord of the mysteries is the perfect and the greatest novel I ever read in my life. The donghua adaptation is also very best. It's the peak of a peak story I ever read. The amount of details, information, the storybuilding, the power level, the main character, the side characters, their building, the concept all the story is peak. Sometimes I think of it really is written by a human hand, trust me oncetoy read both books you'll think so too. Fir me it's an emotion I could never let go of.

It was just review bombed from 9.6 to lower 9.1 it is a complete 10/10 please anyone who sees a 1 star review bombing , you should report it.
