Easy Grilled Fish Recipe Ingredients: 2 whole fish (cleaned, scaled, gutted) or 2 fillets 2 tbsp olive oil 1 tbsp lemon juice 3 cloves garlic (minced) 1 tsp salt ½ tsp black pepper ½ tsp paprika (optional, for smoky flavor) 1 tsp dried herbs (like oregano, thyme, or parsley) Lemon slices and fresh herbs for garnish Instructions: Prep the Fish: Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Make 2–3 diagonal slits on each side if using whole fish — this helps it cook evenly and absorb flavor. Make the Marinade: In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and herbs. Marinate: Rub the marinade all over the fish, including inside the slits and cavity (if whole). Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the fridge). Preheat Grill: Heat your grill or grill pan over medium heat. Oil the grates to prevent sticking. Grill the Fish: For whole fish: Grill each side for about 6–7 minutes, depending on thickness. For fillets: Grill skin-side down first for 3–4 minutes per side. Check for Doneness: Fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork and is opaque all the way through. Serve: Garnish with lemon slices and fresh herbs. Serve with rice, salad, or grilled veggies!
Thank you for your constant review, I hope to see you more in the next chapters I am about to release.
Oh, whatever should I do? I’m no chef, so technically I’m not supposed to complain that the overpriced, dry fried chicken I just ate wasn’t delicious. Well, that would be a problem if I had stolen it, eaten it anyway, and then shouted about how bad it was. But the chef gave it to me for free, so I can do whatever I want — even toss it in the trash and go buy something better. Bad news, though. The chef got mad at me just because I said I didn’t like it. I hadn’t even thrown it out yet, but he kept ranting about how I had no sense of taste, pointing at me like I was the one who didn’t know what real gourmet food was. He even said that since I’m not a chef, I have no right to judge what’s delicious and what’s not. It kinda reminds me of that guy on YouTube who responded to some feminist extremist screaming, "You do not know what a woman is! What right do you, a man, have to define a woman?" The guy was so nice — he just calmly asked, "Do you know what a cat is?" And the extremist immediately went silent. Like I said, he was nice. If it had been me, I probably would’ve asked, "Do you know what a dog is?" You see, following that extremist's logic, if you can define a cat or a dog, that must mean you are a cat or a dog. And well, a female dog is basically a btch*, so... Oh my, look at me rambling like an old man. Anyway — you get what I’m saying?

Oh well, I'll see what I can do then. Your suggestions are going directly in my notes though, I hoped you're fine with that. thanks.
Since you brought this up, I'd like to hear more of your opinion on the matter.
Called it. Should I clarify in the next chapter? I originally left it vague, dismissing everything as a dream so it seems like he only has those specific memories and nothing else breaking the fourth wall. Should I add those memories to his research arcs to explain his limited awareness, or just use an Author’s Note?
I’m not sure if you primarily read Chinese fanfiction, but a lot of Chinese fanfics tend to heavily favor the main character. This one, however, is different from the start—even rejecting the "genius" label, as already mentioned. Misunderstanding tropes exist outside of Chinese fanfiction, you know. You might want to branch out and try some Korean manhwas. You're talking as if he's a reincarnated protagonist who should be overly cautious in everything he does. But he's just a four-year-old kid—not an adult in a child's body. The fact that he’s even able to research cursed energy on his own is already pushing the limits of realism, and yet your main complaint is that he isn’t careful enough for his age? That’s a strange expectation. When I was four, I was just a headache-inducing menace to my parents. Also, no. Blue is not a common cursed energy color.
