    It’s a very alright novel. The writing is not very fluid and the author forces many story events without setting them up properly, resulting in a lack of cohesion throughout. Also, some of it can be extremely cringey at times. With that said, it’s more original than the rest of the garbage on this app so it deserves credit for that.

    It’s a well-written book with nice details, but the plot feels pretty convoluted for no good reason. The pacing is jumpy and weird, and on 3 separate occasions I’ve had to double back and read old chapters to figure out what’s happening, which is something I don’t have to do for good books. Also, the main character isn’t likeable, which is an automatic F in my book.

    I’v reviewed this before but gosh, this novel is phenomenal. I’m caught up and read every release, and it is genuinely one of the highlights of my day. Author, you deserve heartfelt appreciation for the masterful use of language in this novel. Your style is distinct and truly enjoyable. The plot is unpredictable and gripping, and Sunny is a brilliant character. I wish you all the best and am happy to be seeing a future s++ tier novel in the making.

    My thoughts EXACTLY. LOTM is in a class of its own for translations, and this (at least personally) is the same for original works. This novel has, with no sarcasm, ruined every other work on this site for me. Everything is just trying to fill the void that this novel leaves with me every time I finish the most recent chapter.

    This has a good plot, but is unfortunately hurt by a severe obsession with story arcs that are unrelated to the MC. There are also WAY too many flashbacks. It makes the story difficult to read. I’m at chapter 30 and have skipped over literally half of this novel just because of huge filler content.

    The worst part is probably that it’s literally the most predictable ending, unfortunately.

    Lmao condensing the story just makes it worse. The pacing is slow but there’s no filler. Every chapter is necessary. The author took their time with the world and it shows.

    This is a really, really good novel. I won’t say top tier, but as far as light reading goes this is absolutely an example of a well written novel. The story is easy to follow, characters are pretty likeable, and while the jokes become a tad cringeworthy at times the author makes up for it with an exciting plot and good fights. Good work. RIP Drahma.

    Zirani mentioned that she’s asleep when inside him, so they probably can choose to turn off awareness

    It's hilarious that webnovel readers see a single strong female character and automatically assume the MC is a simp. He is literally a slave. It's the name of the book.

    He's an MC who actually has a character, unlike the majority of the garbage on this site. he isn't a side character, he's a normal person. Majority of chinese novels have 1 dimensional idiots with huge plot armor and zero personality.

    This belongs in that S-tier of webnovels. Outstanding world building, writing style is superb, characters contain depth and are interesting. This is scratching the same itches that Supreme Magus and Lord of the Mysteries did. Impressive work.

    Decent translation, but that’s all. The basic idea is interesting but the MC is unrealistic and illogical, conflict is boring and very, VERY forced, and every single character is unlikeable and unremarkable. This book isn’t worth anyones time, skip for your own sake.

    It’s alright. Dropped it mainly because of writing quality. Author: don’t use all caps! Ever! It really lowers the readability of your work.

    Not really a logical comparison. You think just because an author wrote a book they're better than everyone else? bad writing is bad writing. some books are hidden gems, and some just suck. its the reality of sites like this

    This is a really well-written book that is utterly ruined by needless fluff. The author takes an eternity to make any story progress, and lingers for chapters upon chapters on boring side characters, people who ultimately don't matter. Why waste 10 chapters on a character that the MC will kill anyway? Don't waste your stones on this, it just isn't worth it.

    Its pretty good story wise, but the writing style and grammatical errors are just huge deal breakers for me. Good luck author, but poor writing is poor writing.

    fantastic writing quality and a very interesting concept, all let down by an extremely weak beginning and a real lack of vision as to what the characters are. a certain plot point regarding the "overwriting" of the MCs character was the tipping point for this novel being unsalvageable. If I need to wait for a novel to get good because an author royally screws up the start of the novel, it isn't going to get better. I cant wait for this series to end, so that the author can put their writing skills to better use on a different (good) story.
