Please note, the main character isn't a fire relay expert. Or at least, he isn't willing to share information until he becomes the expert or hero, at which point he no longer needs it. The MC does no wrong, mainly because he does nothing most of the time, and it's natural for people to like him. He is a narcissist through and through. He isn't particularly talented, but after relying on the cheat he is given, he starts to believe he is. Romance is similarly one-dimensional; it's natural for people to like him, so in a way, there is no deep romantic subplot.
The rest of the world-building and power system are extremely generic and average. If the novel could decentralize the MC (where there are other characters to root for), then I feel it could improve to maybe even a 4. However, as it stands, the relationships and characters are all one-dimensional.
Finally completed... I've read through the last few chapters, MTL style ? The story was enjoyable overall, but the length was a bit of a challenge for me, as I prefer shorter narratives that can be finished quickly ? It kept me engaged despite its length, though, as it had a unique charm that piqued my interest even when I was tired.
In terms of entertainment value, the content was rather ordinary, focusing mainly on fan arguments and not providing a clear explanation of the main character's popularity. However, the romantic aspect was quite sweet, and I particularly liked the male lead. He was cool, possessive, and a little clingy, which made him quite appealing ?
I'll give this a solid 4-star rating. Thank you for your translation efforts; it was much appreciated! ?
Daddy NetherClaw pls update this novel. ??
She never showed any sexual attraction for the other guy. She closed off her senses when he tried to f*ck her, but he could not enter her at last as MC stopped them. Pls read the full story
I shall live up to my name
I need a spoiler on what it is that she loses due to continuing on her revenge? And dose she get to fall in love ?
Who does not seriously hate the harem classification? Why does the author like to describe the relationship? He cannot tell you that it happened and does not describe it, or does he want s*x lovers to read it or something like that?
It must be lack of sleep but the original comment stated average Japanese light novel and in quickly scanning your response I mistranslated part to "overly possessive tentacles". . . omg. Wrong genre tired brain.
One of the greatest written works I have ever read in my entire life .
Up until Chapter 57, the pace of the story has become rather sluggish, making it difficult for me to read it continuously. Although the plot is engaging and the translation is excellent, the slow progression has led me to skim through parts, as not much significant events have transpired.
Contrary to the summary's claim that the main character (MC) desires to leave while the love interest (ML) objects, there hasn't been any scene like that in the story so far, and it doesn't seem to be on the horizon. Instead, the focus is on the intense bond between the two characters, with possessiveness and territoriality coming into play, as the MC warns the ML to stay away from her brother and establishes their exclusive relationship.
My main issue is the slow progression, but I appreciate the depth of emotions between the main characters. To clarify, the sluggish period was around Chapters 40-70, but after that, the pace returned to its earlier tempo. Despite the misleading summary, I would give this a solid 5-star rating due to the captivating plot and translation. However, the summary discrepancy remains a concern.
The book is highly underrated and beautifully written, but regrettably accessible primarily through machine translation. It's a meticulously researched historical fiction novel that delves into the past and imagines possibilities. The author skillfully incorporates dates, places, and factual details. In short, it can be described as a "time-travel sci-fi adventure set in Japan's Warring States period with kingdom-building and a non-erotic harem element."
Though the theme of nationalism exists, it's understandable given the time period, around the 1500s. I find it perplexing why some reviewers express negativity; perhaps they need to broaden their perspective. Simply put, I encourage readers to give it a chance by sampling a few chapters – I'm confident its unique charm will captivate you.
The world-building within each arc was exceptional, filled with intense gore, disturbing themes, and deep emotional conflicts. The moments of camaraderie between the trainees provided much-needed comic relief, touching, frustrating, and heart-wrenching experiences. The dynamic between Number One and Zong Jiu was a thrilling dance, with their rivalry persisting even after they finally became a couple. However, the cliché of a damsel in distress needing rescue by the male lead somewhat undermined Zong Jiu's strength. Despite this, the storytelling was still captivating, if slightly lacking in a climactic main system. The ending brought happiness, which was satisfying, though one couldn't help but crave more.

Binge-watching the last two days was definitely worth it, but readers should be cautious about getting emotionally invested in the characters.
Minor Spoiler:
Although some characters reappear, it's the thought that counts. I was hoping for more substance when the story reached its conclusion, particularly with the C-Position battles. It seemed like a placeholder term for the top-ranking trainees, functioning as a platform for debut, but it felt underdeveloped and lost significance later on. In the context of entertainment, C-Position refers to the central position in idol groups or bands, where the standout members receive the most visibility. In essence, it boiled down to ranking the top ten, so perhaps my confusion源于翻译问题。 Don't worry about it.
