The story idea is brilliant. Very original. It would be even better if the protagonist grew some ruthless bones in his body. If someone in the future will assist the protagonist template of the world, then it would be better to simply remove them from the equation before they're allowed to help the template at all. Proactive elimination of risk.
It's actually simpler than you would think. Why do adventurers go out to fight monsters and complete all sorts of quests? Isn't it just for the quest completion rewards. Make it so that even if women complete goblin extermination quest they won't be rewarded with even a penny. Without the incentive only the fools would still risk their lives.
This story is the epitome of unnecessary detail. The author spends 10 whole chapters (20-30k words) describing in extremely explicit detail of a widow being raped by her male family members (12 of them). This contributes little to nothing to the story, and could've been summarised in but a chapter - two at most. What's even more bemusing is that this author after having written a incestuous group-rape scene of a widow in extremely fine details then goes onto censor any adult scenes involving the protagonist. According to the author, it's because he thinks the readers have no interest in 18+ scenes, but making inferrences, the author thinks readers are interested in 30k words of an innocent women being raped by her nephews, brother-in-law, old grandpas and such? Honestly, this novel is just incomprehensive to me. As is the author's - quite frankly - fetishised obsessions.
The worst tropes you can possibly imagine; 1. MC falls head over heels obsessing about every women he meets. Including his own sister-in-law. Warning! MC does display several symptoms of the simp syndrome! 2. MC's girlfriend leaves him for a young master stereotype. Who of course then becomes MC's enemy. 3. The protagonist monologues a lot, but his behaviour never changes. For instances he monlogues about being opportunistic in killing weakened magi, but then completely forgets about it. 4. Every single adventure MC goes on, he'll meet a old grandpa. Oh god... There are many other faults, but in essence, this is an unoriginal train wreck.
For this genre...it's never a good sign when the MC is smitten with every single women he encounters. Literally. He only saw 2 women in his new life so far...and he's been utterly obsessed with both of them. It's alright to appreciate women, but not to this degree.
Weird. I thought he would've killed her for her powers? Especially since Freya is the only one who knows that the MC is in-fact just an ordinary student - and he really shouldn't have been able to defeat a S-class monster. Killing her would've been the wise choice, not only does the world remain blissfully unaware of the MCs oddness but he also gets a new power.
This is great, but I can't help but wonder. Wouldn't it have been more promising for the MC to have been transported at least a decade or two back before cannon even began? This way the alternate-history Prussians would have a foundation of strength. Not to mention also give the MC time to plan against all sorts of cannon disasters that are about to come to Westeros.
Suffers from so many faults that you'll have to shut down your brain to enjoy this novel: 1. The system allows MC to purchase modern technology. The MC even uses a gun instead of magic...even though he's a magician. This destroys everything we all know and love about medieval fantasy setting. 2. The author seems to think city management is a cake walk. In 1 year the MC transforms his city into practically a paradise. Did I mention he also built schools and hospitals? Somehow, the clergy which monopolises education and healing is fine with this. 3. Extremely unrealistic plot. MC takes the daughter of a merchant and a farm-girl as his wives. In the noble circles he would be ostracised and persecuted; at best they could be unknown mistresses. He also takes women of other species as his wives - you can imagine how badly this would normally go in any medieval setting. Yet, nothing seems to happen. 4. The MC himself is an idiot. He has no sense of priority at all. He knows the world is dangerous, but doesn't try to improve himself in anyway or form. He has no sense of urgency either. He should be exploiting the system so that he can increase his own power as quickly as possible but instead, he spends all his time...just looking at his children playing. This is fine, but what's not fine is ignoring the security of his own family. Honestly, just skip this. Not worth a read at all.
Misleading story! Author sets up the background of Sam (the protagonist) as a miserable villain, with life itself treating him like crap. Had his inheritance stolen from him, his fiancee NTRd, his best friend literally stabbing him to death, random homeless people brutalising him at every opportunity. But! Sam. The so-called 'rebirth villain' lives life as a saint. He is such a good person that mother Theresa will be in awe of him. He literally forgives every wrong done to him, and pretends like none of it happens. Then he goes onto rave about how happy he is in making other people happy! If the author just wanted to write a generic protagonist template, why give him such a dark history, and even go as far as to label him a villain? Even the title is 'rebirth villain' for God's sake. Truly disappointing.
I honestly don't understand. What's the point of Sam's background and his past? None of it seemingly matters. Sam is instead behaving like the role model good person, he is such a good person, you might as well have made the title 'rebirth protagonist's journey.' He rescues damsels in distress. Feels happy from other people's happiness. Forgiving betrayal with a snap of his fingers is one thing itself is weird, but to forget all his suffering and pretend like none of it happened? Now that's just pathetic.
Everything so far is reasonable, but I do have doubts regarding MC's aversion to having children. Surely having children with Yu Lei would add extra shackles to their relationship? Furthermore the children themselves can be used as assets in the future. Our MC isn't going to be young forever after all.
This behaviour is shockingly cliche. From MC being stunned at how beautiful FMC is, to the cheesy picklines and kindness the FMC showed. Not to mention the the chapters previously (being rescued by an old granda with a 15-year granddaughter). Oh can't forget the MC also likes to monologue about kindness every now and again. The synopsis and the actual content of the story simply isn't matching up.
