I think i can't continue this book.While the first chapter was interesting and seemed to promise many good things , i'm finally left disappointed.Don't get me wrong. The story isn't bad. It's just that i can't get into it. - The pros :. Transmigration is well done( we saw a glimpse of mc's original life and he doesn't adapts directly ro his new environment , nor does he realise quickly that he is in a novel.). The writing( although with some fruits here and there) is really of too quality, for a novel of this platform .. The Mc's life is not smooth sailing since the start.. The first chapter is one of the best introductory chapters i saw on this platform( simple yet effective).. The author is dedicated - The cons : First, the Mc. I pity him but he is honestly sooooo irritating . He is afraid of what might happen to him but he always let the flow of the story drive him, as if he can't think of a plan for himself. Plus, he is always frustrated , not calcalutive at all( which he should be a minimum), and "frank" in a dumb way ( who would show their boss that they despise him or do not want to do their assignated task? Your life DEPENDS on the crown prince so you ought to at least pretend and behave in front of him. But the Mc doesn't even do that. ) . I can accept a Mc with an average brain. But if this one isn't hard working enough to compensate for his/ her weaknesses , if he/she is frustrated by his/her situation but doesn't lift a finger to get out of it and only goes with the flow, then he/she is not worth it.Plus, what is even his personality?Even after reading 17 chapters , i get the feeling that i don't know him. A part from not being a "light" , being frustrated about his situation, being the Mc ... (i don't even know what to say about him besides this three points , which proves even more that i don't know him) ...What defines him? And if one tells me to wait for more chapters before giving my opinion i will disagree with him/her, because the early chapters of a book are supposed to be the appetizers. If i find them this bad, how much longer should i hang on for good chapters to come, while i can invest my time in seaching for better works?Second, The atmosphere in the book.This point is personal. I don't like the atmosphere in the book.I like it better when a book switches between different tones. In this one however , i get the feeling that everything is always serious, which is a bummer for me . The author could have added comedy ( although he/she tried often but failed at it) , and some lighthearted moments( The author could have given him at least one friend). Or any other thing that wouldn’t make it so hard to digest.Third, the pace and the writing.I can understand that this type of plots needs time to unfurl. However, i get the feeling that nothing really important happens( it is too slow or too uneventful). When i read the title of the book, i prepare myself for a good dive in conspiracy and scheming.But there isn't much( if any), where i'm at.Then how about action? The same! I didn’t witness that much action and when it happened it didn’t drew me in.Like i said above, the first chapters are supposed to draw one to a book's story .However this book's 2 to 17 chapters failed at keeping the interest the first chapter earned it.Overall it's not a bad book. It's maybe that it is too low for the expectations that i had .
