Some of you says that this novel is racist and some of you think this is a 10/10, now I cant tell which one is dumb
The world's backdrop captivated me; I've been drawn to this genre lately – isekai stories without cheat systems, but with the protagonist's knowledge of the world. The dark and gloomy setting is typical in isekai narratives, but the presence of monsters across genres often implies a bleak atmosphere. How one perceives the world depends on the protagonist's standing; if they're weak, it's a depressing view, but if they're powerful, it becomes a more generic isekai tale.
Initially, my impression of the main character was that he lacked humanity. There was a lack of connection between him and the reader; it wasn't like the empathy one feels for a long-serving servant, but more as an outsider. He seems to manipulate those around him without anger, not even directed at the game's unfairness. His internal monologues felt more like exposition rather than genuine emotional expression, which didn't contribute to the story's progression.
Half the chapters seemed devoted to redundant descriptions, bogging down the narrative. When introducing character backgrounds, it would have been better to focus on that directly rather than explaining the reasons behind them. The story became repetitive, with the protagonist overcoming seemingly insurmountable challenges, sustaining severe injuries, and ultimately being rescued by deus ex machina moments. The female leads knew about his situation to boost his credibility, but this constant reminder of the dark game grated on me.
While the action scenes were decent, with vivid descriptions of combat, I felt a void in the use of talismans or unique techniques specific to the youkai and exorcist theme. Perhaps this is due to my early stage in the story, but I hope to see these elements develop later. Overall, I'd rate the story as average at best.
I don't really get why others find the baby unappealing, but personally, I think Dudu is absolutely adorable. They say he behaves maturely, but I wouldn't say so. Maybe it's just a translation issue, but he communicates with lots of baby talk, and he's super cute, especially when he's affectionate. He's actually more obedient than most kids, which is a great quality. Overall, this read is a nice way to pass the time, and MTL (Machine Translation) is quite comprehensible.
Agree one of the best lightnovels to ever be created you also gotta love the comedy this story has to offer especially the goated serious senpai
Is this dropped?
The story showcases engaging character dynamics and humor, blending well with its immersive world-building. The writing style is lively, maintaining a consistent tone throughout. Story development is steady, and updates are frequent, keeping readers invested and eager for more.
Nice one, good to read and I enjoyed reading it

If someone asked how Zach and Madelyn in the end? well, Zach still in sleeping beauty mode until chapter 1328. Hahaha. Looks like he'll sleep in forever with no continuation of the translated book. While Madelyn somehow live her life in unknown place peacefully, eventhough some problems unresolved.
