The book is under very nice. the cover is quite great, was drawn to it at first.
Is this a standalone book or part of a series? If a series, what are the other books and the reading order, please?
Can't wait for more chapters.
The novel is exceptional; the author displays a strong grasp of investment and finance. The characters and their backgrounds are intricately designed, as they each contribute meaningfully to the plot. Even the main character's best friend holds a pivotal role, possessing a distinct personality, interests, and backstory. Initially, the protagonist chooses to remain隐蔽, but this dynamic changes rather quickly, leading to engaging interactions and confrontations among the characters.
The narrative is filled with numerous incidents and events, yet the pacing allows for a well-developed storyline, ensuring that each chapter contributes to a satisfying progression. In summary, this is a fantastic read that offers a rich tapestry of characters and a well-structured plot.
I've read this novel 2-3 times previously. It's part of a loosely connected series by the author, and although it's not my top pick among the bunch, it's still a solid read. I would rate this installment around a 4.3.
The pros are:
1. Unique storylines: Each arc offers something fresh, particularly Arc 3, where the main character (MC) becomes a princess or concubine to the future emperor, betraying him for his brother, and ML, the regent king/husband's uncle, with intense sexual tension. Arc 6 features an ABO/interstellar tale where MC marries ML's comatose father, leading to a powerful emotional connection.
2. Active protagonist: Shou isn't passive; he actively takes action, leveraging ML's influence when needed.
3. Well-paced plot: Although occasionally rushed, the pacing keeps the story engaging.
4. Heartfelt HE endings: Every arc seems to conclude positively.
5. Good for fans of QWtFotD: If you're looking for a similar dynamic, this book fits the bill.
However, there are a few cons:
1. Disappointing finale: As the author's first attempt at quick transmigration, the ending didn't quite meet expectations, with subsequent arcs lacking the spark from the earlier ones, especially the apocalyptic storyline.
2. Relationship dynamics: Some arcs might seem more focused on physical attraction than genuine love, which could be a critique applicable to many quick-transmigrating BL stories.
3. Dark themes: Despite its lighter tone, the book delves into serious issues like drug addiction, prostitution, and murder, which might not appeal to all readers.
4. One-dimensional villains: Don't expect redemption for the antagonists, as it's common in quick-transmigration literature.
Overall, it's an entertaining read, and I hope the translators do it justice for the audience. Enjoy! >_<_
I feel like it’s getting progressively worse as the story goes on. Rushed, nothing has meaning, etc. Sad to see
Not criticizing the work since I haven't read it myself, I just wanted to say something about the anime.
I remember watching around 6-10 episodes and dropping it around 2 years ago. What had really bothered me back then was the fact that everyone in the world simply ignored the fact that this guy could just beat absolutely anyone and everyone, they kept calling him a loser, a pretentious person trying to trick others to think he was really the demon lord. For ffs, he literally killed and revived someone in front of your eyes. I just couldn't take it and dropped it back then. What I wanna ask is that is there a deeper plot to this whole thing, like were they under some illusion that made them subconsciously ignore his powers? I don't mind spoilers for this one.
Opening song for the anime was a banger, I still listen to it sometimes.
I'd guess he will have multiple love interests around him but only 1 actual love interest
Does anyone know how many women the protagonist has in the MTL? I want to read this story again, but if the harem is too big I'd rather not.
only reason to read this is for when Klea is in the scene, MC is infuriating, doesn't take responsibility towards his actions towards women, has a twisted and honestly quite sh*t sense of morality that never helps him and only serves to hinder him and ruin his relationships, and takes no action whatsoever by himself, the only reason he does anything is because the plot works around him to include him in whatever is happening, if it was up to the MC without outside influence he would sit at home alone training for years without doing sh*t
might read this, thanks for the suggestion :)
Reach the end of chapter, the story is very nice, FL was reasonable and likeable, she is smart and can work everything out well without any second help most of the time. The ML is unexpected but somehow I feel it satisfied with the couple, some people might hate it tho. Overall I think this will be one of the story that will remind in my mind.
Sadly it seems the translation won't be able to get through to the end, I've search everywhere but couldn't find it. If you really curious about the end you could also look for the drama version, there is some different part but most of the important part are the same.
