Another good book, seems like there are quite a few worth reading. This is a very relaxed slice of live story in which the MC has unlimited money. There are no conflicts or antagonist so far, so after 30 chapters the way this story is going to play out is uncertain.

I've read the whole 40 chapters of this thing, and hoo boy is it bad. And boring. (TLDR at the end) First of all, if you're expecting some excitement, action, romance, anything of the sort, it's NOT HERE. This is strictly a slice-of-life. I have no idea how this author manages to dodge every other genre except for, Idk, wish fullfilment?? Which is also interesting since the wish fulfillment part is not really all that satisfying. Story goes like this: MC gets money. Buys something. Steals from other guy. Buys something, etc, etc. Also, there's the occasional hook thrown here and there, only to be beaten up and abandoned in an alleyway somewhere. Why set up all these plot lines if you're just gonna throw them away? Every single character is one-dimensional. All the girls are caricatures. Beautiful caricatures, mind you. Plus, I don't get why the author feels the need to add all these beautiful figurines, then proceed to shy away from making the novel a harem. How, you ask? Simply by forgetting about the characters you spend 4-5 chapters reading about. I mean, aside from MC and his family, everyone's in danger of being abandoned. The system in this novel (yes, there's a system) is probably the most arbitrary, convenient piece of shit system I have ever read since Ultimate Scheming System (at least this novel fully embraces its trashiness and proceeds to be entertaining). If I had only one thing to say about the novel, it would be "waste". Everything feels like a waste. Waste of words, of characters, of a premise. Of time. And that's the largest crime a webnovel can commit. Making the reader feel like it's a giant waste of time. TLDR: Cluster**** of ideas author doesn't follow through with. Leave and don't look back.

I had high hopes for this novel since i wanted something that i can just mindless lee read, but as time went on the less i enjoyed it. I thought this would be like a wish fulfillment story but then it turned in to a slow passed slice of life. I don't think those two genres mix well. Since i always see wish fulfillment story's fast pass and fun to read while slice of life is always slow day to day and boring. At first i thought i might enjoy it because i was enjoying it at the start till each chapter started to drag on with mindless dribble about nothing important. Spoilers ahead: Spoilers ahead: Spoilers ahead: Spoilers ahead: So the Mc gets a skill that will allow him to get double the money back that he spends. So the MC never really needs to worry about money ever again, but yet he still does. He has this bag that he has to pay 1m yuan to open it.( Cash return skill does not work on the bag) Even if he pays that much there may not be anything in it. But he complains about losing 1m yuan if theirs nothing in it yet he can make that much by buying another car. I feel like the author was using the card as word filler because ever chance he got he repeated the same thing everyone knows when he spends money the "Expenditure cash return". Every time they mentioned him even spending money they will mention that skill in a whole paragraph, like we forgot after the 20th chapter of reading the same thing being said multiple times. One part i found it weird since i get why the cash return skill wont work on the bag but why did it not work when he purchased jade rocks? He does make allot of money from the rocks but then his parents take away most of his money because he's to young even though he's legally an *****(19yOld). Idk kind of put a bad taste in my mouth by how his parents treated him like a kid. When you first read this novel he goes on a shopping spree and spends lots of money after he gets that skill. Then later on he's just sitting in a car for like 15 chapters talking to a girl he highered to be the driver. While going around finishing a mission he got that has him visiting different monuments. Like that's some boring as missions you would only read in a slice of life type story. I was hoping this would be one of those novels were he does things that he wants and he unintentionally becomes famous. But none of those things has happened yet. this seems like an obvious harem as well since every new person he meats seems to always be a girl( i don't hate harems). I was wondering why this novel was only at 4 stars and going down. Now after forcing myself to finish reading it, i know why. The tittle is misleading you think its going to be a fun wish fulfillment but turns in to a slow paced slice of life, that's super boring and nothing interesting actually happens.

His already dim world turns even gloomier and coupled with his trauma from losing her, Kyle felt like he had lost his purpose in life. Living day by day, akin to a soulless puppet, he struggled to keep his suicidal thoughts in check, all whilst trying to make ends meet as a cabbie. During those dark times, Kyle slowly begins to find solace in the world of music and movies. Even though it had always been there, it truly became something as a bloodline of sorts for him because, individually, both pieces of media, transported him to another world, one where he could feel happy, if even for a fleeting moment. And, as if the universe wanted even more for him, Kyle met some lovely old people, all of whom treated him as the son they never had, making him feel like he had a family after so long. This eventually, helped him let go of his trauma and turned him into the lovely soul he was always meant to be. But as fate would have it, these same people, wanted for Kyle to pursue his dreams because they saw the potential for greatness in him and the wonderous things he could go on to do, even if Kyle himself was oblivious to it. So, in an effort to make his dreams come true, they ended up gifting him a brand new chance, one that Kyle himself would only go on to realize after his untimely death in a fatal car accident. Now awake in the new world, still orphaned but with a brighter perspective on life, Kyle, armed with a System, another gift from his loved ones in the previous world, decides to take the chance to pursue his dreams of being a star, one that he was unable to pursue in his previous life due to his lack of talent. This is the story of a man who will go on to become the most versatile and renowned superstar all over the world... and it starts, just as he takes his first step into the cutthroat world of fame and fortune by registering for the popular singing reality TV competition, 'Rising Voices'. Known to be a fiercely competitive TV show, Kyle will meet with top contestants from around the world, go up against them, level up and become better, and ultimately, battle with them for the number one spot in the show as a dark horse! --- |AUTHOR NOTE| Just wanted to make it clear, that the singing competition which will be the first arc of the novel, will end around the late twenty-ish or early thirty-ish chapters. After that, you can expect so much more from the story so look forward to it! Also, although the setting is in a parallel world, all the songs, scripts and movies (although I will draw inspiration here and there), will be originals penned by yours truly (-‿◦).

My Pick Up Artist System

"With this system, I'll become the world's greatest seducer! If it doesn't kill me first..." I was a nobody, a short fatty Otaku. Then, a girl's voice popped into my head: [Seduce a woman within a month or die.] "What the hell...how? I'm an 18-year-old virgin..." [7+ looks only. No slam donkeys.] "You’re forcing me to die!” Facing annihilation, I saw no choice but to join the international community of pick up artists, and from that day forward, my boring student life became filled with craziness and womanizing. I just had one problem: "Why are all these guys insane?!?" Pick Up Artist: One who uses specialized tactics to seduce women.
