Summary
In a blink, I found myself in an unknown land, greeted by the textbox of an unfriendly system.
It wanted me to become a great hero, save the world, win the love of the people and all that crap. But this new world already had a hero. Why should I bust my ass and deal with dragons and the unknown for people I didn't know? Let him deal with that. It's his job! So instead of being tempted by the system's nonsense, I chose a simple class. Potion maker. I wasn't interested in cultivating mana and defying the heavens, courting death, none of that crap.
Unfortunately, the town I spawned near was suffering crippling inflation, merchants and people were leaving, and they themselves lacked high-demand businesses. The town would soon be going under.
Not if I have anything to say about it.
But will it be that easy to escape fate?
Novel contains: strong MC in a slice-of-life environment, dungeon diving, boss battles, cultivation and elements, mana/magic, MC-exclusive system but it doesn't do the work for him, treasures, adventurers, slow world building, build-up, features that will not be introduced all at once (upgrades so on), actual good loot at the end of very powerful bosses, and romance (no harem). As characters develop throughout the series, issues and emotions and even the MC may find himself in a corner or two. A story of an upcoming potion shopkeeper and his apprentices.
Building an S-ranked potion shop is easier said than done....

What a breath of fresh air
I love this book. It is a story of Joe Average drawn into an Anime type world. What makes this different, the MC maintains his attitude, care free and just wanting a peaceful life. He has a snarky attitude and brings all the present day thoughts to the front. They come up with some the most funniest situations I've read. What makes it is the back and forth between characters.
The narrators did a fine job of actually making so many individuals with unique attitudes. Well done!

A fight for a slice of life
A nice twist on the summoned to be a hero story and wanting none of in it. The pacing is pretty fast and it has some genuinely funny moments thrown in too. if you want to try something different with wuxia undertones then definitely give this a go.

Interesting start
A mix between slice of life abd adventuring.
An isekai start of an MC who refuse to become the hero but a potion maker and living a peaceful life but life dosnt go how our MC wishes.

Entertaining but with boring passages
Overall I enjoyed it.
some different concepts introduced, but a bit too much plot armor feeling all the way through.
Like you never had too think how is mc gonna solve this as it just randomly happened for him.
The main voice actor was very good, however the second one had low quality setup which made transitions sound terrible. also she was not great at using different voices for characters. I had no idea who she was trying to imitate when talking as it was basically identical voice.

Good start.
I'm a fan of some of Alvin's other series and thought I would give this a try. Good pace story, world and character building I feel a decent pace, not too fast or too slow. voice performance was good, enjoyed listening. moving on to the next book.

Entertaining book with excellent narration.
I hadn’t encountered this author or narrator(s) before, the story flows well, with regular entertaining anecdotes.
The story line hints at elements to come and I look forward to seeing how the series develops. The writer was unknown to me and is one I will be following, I am looking forward to the next instalment in the series
The male narrator brings to life the humour contained within the story, the characters inflection and tone are prefect.

interesting
really loved the storyline. I always enjoy the slice of life stories and this was no exception. Alvin writes pretty well.
the characters were interesting and the world building was awesome. There were certain points where it felt like info dumps but overall great work. Narration was pretty good too.
