I feel like I’m reading the same chapter over and over again. Seriously, we get it — the ritual, the chances, we understand that he’ll succeed and that he knows how to do it because he read the novel. But it’s not necessary to repeat it over and over… it just gets tiring in the end.

He and Amelia are together as a couple and also live together. He and Rachel reached an understanding to remain just friends, and it seems she no longer has any feelings for him; it was just a passing thing.

I’ve always had this question... Why doesn’t he use that ability with intelligence? I mean, what stops him from obtaining all of Jin’s abilities and then converting them into personal ones with his curse affinity? What’s the point of not using it if he already knows it works? Also, why would he let Jin know that he’s aware of his entire plan? That would only confirm to Jin that he has already awakened the curse affinity. So, what would prevent Jin from just taking it from him? If he can’t defeat an SS or S+ ranked enemy, what would stop Jin—the highest rank we’ve seen so far—from killing him and taking the affinity he needs?

Okay… I'm currently at chapter 283, so I'll talk about my experience up to this point. First, the world-building: the only progress here has been adding a few other races, and beyond that, it stays the same. There’s been some mention of the other continent wanting to invade the MC’s empire, but there’s no explanation as to why they don’t invade or why they need such an elaborate plan to do so, especially when they’re clearly superior in every way. The only possible explanation up to this point is that the plot is just favoring the MC so he can improve the empire and ensure that his empire wins the war. But if you say it gets better, then I'm excited to see that. About the ‘hero’ rescuing the kidnapped person… well, the team went to rescue her at his request, not because the government or her family asked them to. He went directly to them and asked for help. Also, she was kidnapped around 6 PM, according to the author, and when she regained consciousness, it was already 1 AM. In all that time, no one came to help her, there’s no mention of her family or anything… no matter how you look at it, it doesn’t make sense. Especially if she’s from a powerful family and is supposedly one of the empire’s pillars. As for the issues I pointed out earlier, none of them have been resolved so far. The interactions between the main characters still feel awkward; they say they’re best friends, but they feel more like acquaintances. Even after going through so much together, they act the same as they did at the beginning, with only minimal differences. The only relationship that feels somewhat developed and moving forward is the one between the MC and Amelia—you can tell the author put more effort than usual into that one. The MC's personality is still the same as at the beginning, with the difference that he doesn’t cry every other chapter and understands he’s not in a novel anymore. However, this actually makes things worse, because he now has far more experience, with full memories of over 10,200 lives and repetitions, and yet he acts the same as he did initially. He still gets nervous when talking to someone important, still fights the same way as before (except now he uses a sword), and still doesn’t take full advantage of all the experience he’s gained through his regressions. As I said, it's an interesting novel—not great, not terrible, but one that does what we ask of any novel: entertain. Despite its flaws, I think that’s what’s important here. It entertains, and it’s certainly better than a large majority of the “extras” novels on the app.

Honest Opinion on the Novel This novel is, honestly, terribly bad. It reminds me of when I started reading light novels and stumbled upon those 6,000-chapter Chinese novels, reading them while thinking, "It can't get any worse, right?" But miraculously, it somehow did get worse. The Good: The only positive is that feeling of "It can't get any worse, right?" Nothing else. The Bad: Absolutely everything. Story: Generic, nothing new. It's the typical "reincarnate into a novel the protagonist hates" with no reason other than entertaining a bored god. System: Another one of those systems that gives random missions, making the protagonist a slave to it. And to top it off, he trusts it simply because a god left him a letter saying, "Trust me, there’s no mind control, I assure you." Ridiculously absurd. Characters: It feels like something went wrong in their evolutionary process. Their brains don’t seem fully developed, so don’t expect deep or complex characters; they practically have severe brain death. Progression or Writing Style: Each chapter has barely 2 or 3 paragraphs of actual story. After that, the rest is just filler, repeating those same paragraphs in different ways: with different words, from another character’s perspective, or in third person. The characters’ stats can change from one moment to the next. One moment, the protagonist might have mana at an S rank, and the next day it’s suddenly A rank. As for skills, you’ll have to imagine them yourself. Don’t expect to know what they actually do or what effects they have. Just use the power of imagination. For instance, you might see a character use a skill with a sword with some strange name, and the protagonist might use a spear skill with a strange name, and the story simply says that the protagonist’s skill won. How and why? Who knows; just use your imagination. Summary for Those Who Don’t Want to Read Everything: One of the protagonist’s sisters hates him because, according to her, "it’s his fault" their father died protecting him. The protagonist asks her, "How is it my fault? I was 10 years old; how could I have done anything?" And boom! Problem solved, and the sister suddenly falls in love with him because of that killer line. Then, a mission appears as completed: “Make a main character fall in love” with a difficulty of S+. Hilariously bad.

so...slave type of sistem..

although in reality he didn't do anything...it was Jin who did everything...but well that's not something they should know hahaha

So the MC has arrogance and ego…without any real justification for it, yet he has no determination whatsoever. What happened to not using magic, no zone, and all that?

Okay…I think I understand the ability’s restrictions, probably to prevent it from being too overpowered. I can get behind that, but the risks just aren’t worth it. At this point, the MC should understand that he can’t control everything. It’s impossible to account for all possibilities when you’re dealing with humans or any sentient beings. Like I mentioned before, there are just too many things that can go wrong. Anyway, I’ve gotten used to the MC’s lack of logical thinking, and so far, the story is still worth following, even if it means turning off my rational side when I see his decisions. P.S. Keep it up with the novel, and I hope my comments aren’t offensive. I don’t know if the MC improves in the future, but this is just how I feel right now, haha
