Translation is poor and maybe coupled with the writing style makes it very difficult to read and flow. The plot is good but the translation and writing style makes is very jarring and confusing. The author is attempting an air of mystery but misses the mark and it ends up feeling draggy and contrived. Lacks the punch it was aiming for. Maybe it would be a different read it the translation was done professionally because it feels like a machine translation. Pity though because the plot feels very promising and the FL is unconventional. It feels almost like an she is a spy or undercover agent vs her love interest who is similarly like an undercover agent. I want to keep reading it for the plot but I’m getting more and more frustrated and will probably drop it due to the above reasons.

No I continued it and the translation gets better. The plot was very entertaining and so I actually ended up reading the whole novel on MTL. The better translations set me up so i could understand the characters/names/who was who etc. Still going to read to proper translation later but it all seems to make sense now

Yeah i felt that way too, but i really liked the plot. I ended up MTL’ing the rest and somehow developed the art of reading machine translation lol. Don’t even get headaches reading this jumble of words. the expectations are very low for MTL, but high for Webnovel translation (i mean we wait, save up free passes and pay with coins too)

IKR i always have a great expectations for novel that translated on webnovel (because it's official obviobviously) and that's why when i found some novel that translated really bad to the point makes me feels like reading MTL then i rather read MTL because it's free and already completed than reading something with almost the same quality and must paid for it

THE ULTIMATE MARY SUE. Need someone to hack your computer?Qin Ran can do that. Need someone to play a world-class violin piece? Qin Ran can do that. Need someone to write the lyrics to make a world-famous pop-star? Qin Ran can do that. Need someone to fight eight guys at once? Qin Ran can do that. Need someone that's so clever they already finished the high school curriculum when they were 15? Qin Ran can (and did) do that. Need someone who has connections to every single powerful person in your area? Qin Ran can do that. Need someone to call a world-famous lawyer for your defence? Qin Ran can do that. Need someone who can draw so exquisitely with *chalk* that if she used an actual paintbrush people would probably faint from the beauty of her drawing? Qin Ran can do that. Need someone who is lukewarm to most people, doesn't explain herself at all, and is prone to violent outbursts that can kill people, but is beautiful so everything is forgiven? Qin Ran can do that. THE ULTIMATE GARY STU. Need someone who's from the most powerful family in Beijing? The ML is who you want. Need someone who was in the army? The ML is who you want. Need someone who was in the police? The ML is who you want. Need someone who graduated with like five different degrees all before the age of 21? The ML is who you want. Need someone who is a medical expert and can cure literally anyone? The ML is who you want. Need someone who will ignore everyone else but inexplicably feel a draw to the FL? The ML is who you want. Indulge in the sheer ridiculousness of a story that makes you astonished that the FL merely writes the lyrics for a world famous pop-star and isn't actually the pop-star herself. An objectively low rating, but a fun read.

100 Days to Seduce the Devil

[Warning: R18+] When Hate turns into Love... and Vengeance turns into Passion... Will he choose to start over with her? ======= Phantomflake's soul got separated from her body after committing suicide in front of her enemy, Nathan Sparks, the Supreme Leader of Syphiruz Mafia. She woke up only to find out that her body (which was in a coma state) was being held captive by Nathan 'the Devil!', who was trying to prolong her life. And what was his motive? To kill her by his own hand and torture her to death! Nathan has a deep resentment against Phantomflake as she was the one who assassinated the most precious person in his life. He wanted revenge! And things just got more exciting when a magical creature appeared in front of Phantom's soul, giving her a ridiculous mission in exchange of regaining her body back. "Make him fall in love with you within 100 days!" The flying creature said, pointing his small paws at Nathan who expressionlessly stood next to her sickbed. With her eyes going round, Phantomflake made an 'you-got-to-be-kidding-me' face at the flying creature. No way! That's a mission impossible! This guy loathed her so much. How would she do that??! ****** Excerpt: Nathan grabbed her by her neck. "Don't play tricks with me, Phantomflake." Nathan's cold voice reverberated inside the room, his eyes burning with rage. But Phantomflake just smirked at him, pressing her hands against his chest, her fingers teasing him. "You can't kill me, Nate. Just admit it. You've already fallen for me." With one swift move, Phantomflake pulled his shirt, closing their gaps as she crushed her lips against his lips. Surprisingly, Nathan just found himself responding to her. He lost! He couldn't resist her. ===== I owned the Book Cover (=";"=) Artist: Bea Cortez Join Author's server to get updates and announcements about the book. Discord link: https://discord.gg/WymeFaeQe
