It could have been better. I mean, same author as Super Gene, so an MC reliant on his cheat/strangely game-like and unbalanced power system in-world is a given. On the plus side, we have no annoying harem that the MC is pandering to like in Super Gene. MC is significantly less loud and perverted than the variety of CN MCs that are kind of common nowadays. There's a setting that's at least surface-level interesting: Dimensional zones where mythology and fantasy leak into real life, mysteries surrounding why they exist, how to get strong, etc. On the minus side, the MC's main character halo isn't even trying to hide. Other than the phone/game cheat that's the reason for the title, MC gains some other cheats that don't really have too much exposition. There's also a plot hole: unless that phone has a VR feature, playing mobile games does not improve combat ability. No matter how realistic it is... Other: The nationalism is really faint with this one, I don't see why people complain. Like, the districts aren't really defined in terms of real life countries, so which countries they are means taking hints like naming style, geography, and mythology of the local Dimensional Zones. MC, other than beating up people from other districts, also beats up people from his own, so I don't really see the problem. There are both allies and enemies from foreign districts, too. People saying MC is a doormat? No, he takes revenge properly, it's properly planned out and takes some time. And everyone who complained about it, despite bashing on how trash CN novels are, are too used to a typical CN shuangwen's usual pace and forgot that patience exists. Well, then again, people are paying per chapter here so at least it's kind of understandable, but couldn't you just consider the possibility? The pace is slower relative to other shuangwen, if what you count as pace is plot progression. But if you're talking about the MC's power leveling speed, I guess it's also slower, but I'm used to reading slower novels now so it looks pretty fast to me. Like a lot of shuangwen, it's kind of got no goal, other than the MC gaining power to survive or some vague-ish reason. If there was, I forgot because it isn't mentioned a lot.

Uhh, late reply. I just meant that the MC here wasn't really perverted or loud and that nowadays a lot of novels have MCs that *are* perverted and loud. Sorry for the confusion ^^' As for the other one, yeah, magic cheat phone, I guess. I just assumed that the cheat feature was being able to grind dungeons and get infinite loot rather than a magic battle experience generator.

"Plot hole". Please don't try to use our own real world laws on a fiction, with supernatural stuff. Besides, the phone works via dropping your "blood" in. There you go.

For the first paragraph of what you said. Here is my reply: Main character wants to game in peace, thats why he relies on it. Besides, there are many reasons as to why he wants to use the phone to improve/promote himself on various dungeons. (later on, via machine translation) I don't think you would say that the MC is "significantly less loud and perverted" either. Due to the MC here showing NOTHING that makes him a pervert, throughout the entire story, including raws. He also has low EQ, which is also another reason as to why he Isn't like that. Being loud, however.... Nah, I don't see him being loud in anyway (Unless you meant his impact on the world... Don't see anything wrong with that, but he Isn't that loud compared to most novel main characters out there.)

Ah, I understand now. I can agree with what you say completely for the first one. Second. The phone gets more info and such later on about its functions as time goes on. At least the author knows how to make the story suspendful. Revealing everything is bad writing, and revealing bits of info and hints makes the story more mysterious (certain aspects and such) and providing further world building. Anyways, I forgot to mention, but thanks for your positive review on this story! At least, you are open-minded, and can look at both sides without being biased, which I am thankful for (As well as the translators and many others like you.) Thanks!
