So this is the sort of story that relatively easy to dismiss at first glance. It's a sort of wish fulfillment story with lots of the trappings of what you would expect from the genre. In short it's smut, and it's not terribly shy about admitting it. However it's also well written, with more than just that basic bare bones plot you might expect. The MC has some issues, but a lot of the characters are well thought out and have a place in the world where you'll feel they 'fit'. At this point the heroine's come in two distinct flavors, with a name and without. The heroines with a name have a place in the story and in general you can expect them to have some impact on both the story and the MC. The nameless ones are generally cannon fodder who attack the MC and then revenge is apparently a dish best served with mind altering pheromones. At the point of this review the story is still growing but has bits of sociopolitical intrigue and while it hasn't shown up as more than window dressing, it shows that the author has invested in the story to some degree and provides hints of things to come. Being honest there are parts where the story is a little rushed and events would have been more impactful if they had been drawn out a little more, but it's far and away better than a majority of the quick fiction stories you'll find excluding genre, and far and away better than most you'll find in the genre.

True reviewing at chapter 400ish the plot is quite insane for a story that is smut with plot.

I think this story deserves an honest, detailed review so I will give it one. First, let's get two things out of the way. One: the mc tends to work on seducing girls he chooses and "rapes" those that try to kill him. Two: The author didn't do himself justice by saying "you can expect a lot of smut, comedy, and face-smacking" because while it is true, there is so much more. Writing Quality: Excellent. If you've navigated the sea of horrifying grammar most webnovel authors have to offer, you will be pleasantly surprised to see here someone who actually knows how to use the English language to produce an enjoyable reading experience. Stability of Updates: It speaks for itself really. I don't think you will find many authors out there doing better than this. At least one chapter a day, and you might get surprised with more. Story Development: The beginning was a bit rushed. And in my opinion, it seems that rush was more of a method for the author to show what he was capable of in terms of writing to pull in the readers. I might be getting ahead of myself by saying that, but the steady pace past the sixth chapter seems to indicate that. Character Design: Let's face it. When you sign up for this kind of novels, you don't expect much in those areas. But I was pleasantly surprised to see that all the principal characters are well fleshed out and have defining traits (the first girl, in particular, proves to be the most interesting in the latest chapters. But again, that's my opinion). World Background: And that's one of my favorites. The author seamlessly mixed German and Chinese culture (with some personal tweaks) to build his fantasy world. There is no large info dump, and things are revealed in a gradual process, when necessary. The interaction with the system is hilarious, but not the only source of comedy (it's the most entertaining in my opinion though). The main girls (those identified so far) don't just fall into his hands like puppets for no reasons. There are many surprises and political intrigues as the story develops. All in all, this is an entertaining read, and I shall keep following it.

Reading the title and then reading this may cause some confusion but this is one of the best written work that I have read on this site. The character development in this novel is well above the average that can typically be found in originals, and even many other professional works. As of now the updates are consistent and you can very easily feel the care that the author puts into the work and the devotion with their fans by the regular contact that can be on the discord channel trying to improve the story at all possible points. The characters begin with interesting interactions and they are constantly built up to give more of a personal feel where it seems like you or someone you know could be in that position and have conversations with them that feel real. The MC is a bit of a scoundrel in the view of society but I love characters like him in novels and can't really find any objectionable points (but I'm a huge S so that alone might discount my POV). The women are interesting and when you think about the magic that they are under their actions are all fairly believable without huge jumps in logic that you can find in other works like where the MC r.a.p.e.s a female lead and for no reason she ends up with Stockholm Syndrome by the time they finish. The world building has only just begun but the map of the world and a general understanding of etiquite and culture be seen under construction. I have no doubt that if the autor contiues with the current work for the rest of 2019 then this will turn into an absolute masterpiece among any group of webnovels. (First review I've ever written so I'm not sure how good it is or if my point gets across well, but basically, MUST READ is the only way to describe this novel)

I Can Copy And Evolve Talents

Across the vast convolution of worlds, divine beings rule as absolute sovereigns—each god assigned dominion over a singular realm. Skirmishes are inevitable, whether for power, amusement, or sheer pettiness. One such battle, between Nexus, the God of Trickery, and an aging, senile deity, resulted in an anomaly… A soul misplaced. Elliot, an ordinary man, was never meant for Ul’Tra-el. But fate, or perhaps a cosmic prank, had other plans. Unlike other worlds, Ul’Tra-el is an aberration—one that developed a voice. A voice that diverged from the natural order. A voice that changed everything. Its foundation cracked, leaking dimensions into one another. Rifts tore open like festering wounds, vomiting forth unspeakable horrors—monsters not meant to exist. But the world did not sit idly by. In response—perhaps an act of self-preservation—the world gifted its inhabitants power. Talents awakened, granting people extraordinary abilities. And for every rift sealed, the Voice of Ul rewarded them generously. Survival was simple: fight, grow stronger, and close the rifts… or die trying. In this ruthless, blood-soaked reality, Northern—a white-haired boy burdened by his past life—was reincarnated. But unlike the chosen heroes, he awakened as a talentless nobody. No power. No strength. No future. And when death loomed over him—when despair clawed at his soul and the cold grip of the failure threatened to take him— A Voice responded: [System Notice] [Your Soul cannot take a form.] [Searching for a Unique Pattern Ability…] [Searching…] [Search Found.] [A Unique System Ability has been detected.] [You Can Copy And Evolve Talents] ... Follow Northern through his journey as he becomes the pinnacle of this world. This a story about a white-haired boy’s rise from rubbles!! Note: This is an overpower genre but MC does not just start off like that. Even though MC can copy talents he doesn't just jump around copying talents because there's a limitation. However, his rise to strength is depicted and is an experience to enjoy. The first few hundreds would be frustrating to follow because MC is weak but that makes the experience all the more interesting when MC finally gets freaking strong and starts wiping the floor with everyones asses.
