i would suggest reading this through the demon king arc which is around 40 chapters or so, i feel like that is one of the best arcs i've read in a recent memory and everything up to it was pretty good. i don't think the story really ever hits that high again but everyone has different tastes so it is worth giving a shot. i stuck it out for a few more arcs but i feel like the side characters from the early chapters fell off in relevance to focus on the main character which put me off of continuing.
