I've read the comments saying that "it gets better/easier to read later on" but it's exactly the starting chapters I unfortunately can't get over. The tone flip-flops like crazy, the emojis/kaomoji are overwhelming and random and contributes to absolutely nothing, the first few chapters are vague and I just couldn't take it in. Basically it reads like how whiplash feels. The premises sounds good and the update consistency is admirable but the execution leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe one day the author will edit the beginning chapters and I'll come back to give it another try but right now? No thanks.

Author here (~ ̄▽ ̄)~ I will post extra chapters for votes and reviews so please show some love to this shameless, saaad fujoshi to motivate me to continue writing trash. <3 And now some more info about the story: Every arc is set in a new world with magical elements and a mystery that needs to be solved. MC and ML meet early on and are pretty much glued together for the whole arc due to various circumstances. It is one on one pairing, no harem, no love triangles. However, ML doesn't remember his past lives with MC while MC doesn't have a way to recognize who ML is in the new world, thus both end up just naturally falling in love with each other over and over and over again. There is no angst or long misunderstandings and all arcs are happy endings. All worlds contain plot twists, and the pairing of MC and ML is always exciting/taboo-ish due to their peculiar identities in that world (examples of what I mean by exciting pairings: hired assassin and his target, monster tamer and his tamed beast, master and disciple, siblings, brothers-in-law, etc.) The two are a perfect match (hehe, especially in bed). They both enjoy kinky and rough sex. MC enjoys being "bullied" in bed and ML enjoys "bullying" him. Though many scenes might seem like rape due to MC being reluctant or not being able to provide consent, they aren't really because MC always had a way out but chose not to employ it, while ML, due to their soul compatibility, can feel what MC is feeling (both pleasure and pain) and knows whether MC is enjoying himself or not, thus he never takes it too far nor does something that would truly hurt MC emotionally or physically. P.S. The book cover is temporary, I just quickly mashed something up so it wouldn't be empty. If you guys want to make me a new cover, you are much welcome to.

absolutely love this novel! i usually dont like to wait for updates on novels but i can totally wait for this one! in my opinion, everything about this is excellent! from the writing quality, to the story development, character design, updating stability, and world background! absolutely excellent I LOVE ITT!! cant say this enough! now lets talk about the writing quality, personally i think the grammar is good and the way you insert lines is excellent, but this is just from my point of view, i am not a professional but from the letters to the syllables to the words to the grammar i think its absolutely excellent! the story development is also good, i cant say much but i think its amazing, it doesnt feel too fast paced but it also doesnt feel slow, that it just makes you wanna drop the book. personally, the pace is just right i could totally reread this once its completed! aa for the character designs, Noah(MC) is absolutely adorable! hes more unique compared to other bl novels ive read, also we cant forget about Levi(ML)! this wolf like gong i absolutely love it when hes being shameless, and also at times when he gets shamefully har-- ahem, i literally laugh from the chapters on this one, like in one chapter i get to laugh atleast three times! but it isnt all about the comedy, i absolutely enjoy the parts where Noah(MC) is being a detective and tries to find out who the killer is by little clues! it reminds me of detective conan! the character design for Blackie, Fynn, Trey, and the others are also unique! i absolutely love blackie and his dark humours really saying what i wanna say when i cant think of what to say! i totally ship Trey and Fynn, from the moment Trey was saying he was gay and etc. etc. again i wont say much because i may accidentally spoil it for new readers. but i want stories about them too inserted somewhere but not focused on them! like just mentioning some tidbits so we get some clue on whats happeing but it also wont affect the plot much and also not talking about them too much that i wont read about Noah(MC) and Levi(ML) anymore! continuing, the updating stability is also good! but it gets a little slow sometimes but i understand you have your worries irl so it doesnt really matter as long as you still update and dont just drop the book! id be totally devastated and be depressed and wont trust books anymore. and last but not least the World background! the background is really deep, it really makes me think if the Levi(ML) is an important person or a person with a high position, to the people who created Noah(MC) and them(this makes it sound like i know alot but i totally dont about the world background), or it could be totally unexpected when revealed and shock us so much! I wont say much unless i spoil it for people who havent read this yet but i think the background has more to it from the information given but idk im not really a person who overthinks sometimes so i kinda get lazy and just leave it up to reading and updates. overall i think its good, the romance is just right and doesnt make us suffer by no dog food at all and make the relationship so ambiguous but makes no progress, Noah(MC) is doing a great job trying to figure out his feelings! rooting for you(MC&ML), the relationship also doesnt seem forced and on the contrary, make it seem sweet and bountiful! the comedy and romance and everything is really well balanced for me, it really makes my day! also, this is my first time writing a review! author-san i gave my first review to you!💜 absolutely love your novel, (i'll try to give more ink next time after my current ink runs out because my mom scolded me for taking money from the credit card sigh~) Anyway I absolutely recommend this novel if you have nothing to read and you like BL, or if your sad because this has comedy in it! if you wanna eat dog food theres also romance here! everything you want is here! unless you arent a fujoshi ofcourse you can read at your own risk! i will say it again! i absolutely love this novel and totally recommend it! if yall havent read it yet then yall are really losing out on this in my opinion. well that the end of my review! thanks for reading😊

Over the past two months SSC has become my favorite BL novel on this site. It is a masterpiece filled with humor and fluff, delivering daily dose of sugar to those who read it. I'm now like a child on Christmas morning, getting up excited knowing that a new chapter is waiting for me to read. If you are a BL lover, heck, even you aren't, this is something you should definitely give a try. But beware, you might find yourself with your heart stolen, thinking about it every day ;) And if you find that the writing style isn't to your taste (I can't possibly imagine why, but everyone's taste is different so surely there will be someone who won't like it), you can just stop and go find something else to read. No one is forcing you to read, and you aren't even paying anything to read it. Just don't come here to rage over something stupid like the emoji usage and bring down the rating of this gem. So what if it uses emojis? What's wrong with having "pictures" mixed with text? If J.K.Rowling decided to print a version of Harry Potter where there are emojis inside, would it become a trash book? Don't be ridiculous. You might personally find that the emojis aren't fitting, but you can just ignore it and concentrate on the beautiful essence of the remainder. Don't automatically assume that a book is some kind of am*teurish cr*p just if it doesn't use the format that you are used to. SSC isn't. It is as far away from cr*ap as one could possibly go - the writing is fluid, no grammar or spelling mistakes, there are no plot holes or glaring logic flaws, characters are lovable, the plot is smoothly and steadily building up, etc. The craft of this novel is exquisite, but of course, no matter how beautiful something is to one person, there will always be people who find it ugly. It is a matter of taste, not an inherent flaw in the work itself. I've read someone complain that the start is vague. You only feel that way because you have gotten used to information dumps in the beginning of novels and SSC has no information dumps whatsoever. It feeds you information gradually which is great, no long texts of boring info, no filler text, no sections you just want to skip because you don't really care, etc. If it is vague, and the questions you have aren't explained soon after, then you'll just have to wait until it becomes relevant and gets elaborated further. Someone also mentioned tone flip-flopping? Yeah, it's what makes it so funny! It leads your mind in one direction and then tugs it in reverse creating this surprise comedic effect. It's the punchline of a joke. Sigh, what I'm trying to say is, it's ok if this isn't the type of humor you enjoy, we all have our preferences. But don't mistake what others consider great humor for bad writing! And what do you mean maybe the author will come back and edit it? What's there to edit? The "overuse" of emojis? Um, objection! I don't want them edited out!

Don't let the format of the summary and the cute emojis fool you! The author's writing is fantastic! Not immature or *******ish at all! I think I read somewhere she is a professional author who recently started writing BL on a different pen name and it shows - I have yet to spot a grammar or spelling mistake in the novel. The releases are on a regular schedule, not a single one missed yet. And the author releases a bonus chapter every week when a set number of power stones is reached. The writing is to the point, without any BS filler and is an absolute joy to read. MC and ML are a match made in heaven and their interactions are so much fun to read. Now, every day as I deal with all kinds of **** in my life, I know that at the end of it I'll have my pick-me-up packet of candy delivered right on time. Worldbuilding is terrific and fed to us very gradually when it becomes relevant, no information overload. Characters, so far, all have their unique personalities and motivations, and from I gathered, they also all play a certain part in the overall plot. The plot flows smoothly, and interesting things… keep happening. I don't know how to explain this, it's like you are reading a genuine adventure mystery with all kinds of new stuff happening all the time, but every single scene of it is interwoven with so much romance and fluff. The author never makes you forget that you are reading a romantic comedy, no matter how full of action and thrill the scenes are. And I think that's just beautiful. We all came here to read romance, right? I just didn't know romance could be told in a such a satisfying way. Thank you, author <3 Please continue writing this funny and sweet gem! P.S. I am still waiting to read that promised smut. At the moment, we haven't reached the smut part of the story just yet. Since I won't be able to edit this review, I'll just post another later to let you know what the smut is like. P.P.S. Also, author, is there a way for you to give us more weekly releases? Maybe open a ko-fi so we can help you do less of… whatever you are doing to make a living, and write more SSC for us?

Fallen General's Omega (BL)

I watch him, his green eyes brimming with concern as he gently massages my scarred leg. The sensation is both soothing and a stark reminder of my own inadequacy. The once-feared Crimson General, a symbol of power and invincibility, is now nothing but a frail shadow of his former self. I’ve been abandoned, left to decay in this forsaken place, my family and comrades long forgotten. Darkness had become my only solace, and I had resigned myself to it. Then he arrived, a beacon of light in my endless night. His presence, his care—it’s more than I ever deserved. Yet, I find myself clinging to him with an intensity that borders on madness. I hate that I need him so desperately, that his every action and word have become my lifeline. It consumes me, a torment I can't escape. "You don't have to do this. Please, don’t do this. I’m nothing. You deserve better. Leave. Please," I beg, my voice trembling with raw anguish, the very words tearing me apart. He continues his work, seemingly unaffected by my pleas. "Why are you here? Look at me! I’m nothing." Desperation and anger swell within me, mixing into a maelstrom of anxiety. I can’t comprehend the emotions coursing through me. "You're my alpha, where else would I be?" he responds softly, his gaze unwavering, as if my pleas were mere background noise. My heart races, torn between overwhelming relief and paralyzing dread. In that moment, I realize the truth: you would have to tear him from my cold, lifeless arms. I’m never letting go. - General Thorne, betrayed and broken, finds new life and love with Omega Noelle, who nurses him back to health. Their deepening bond reveals Thorne’s softer side, offering a chance at happiness. Unfortunately, Thorne’s past soon catches up with them, threatening their newfound peace. **** STOP!!!! HERE IS 9 REASONS YOU SHOULD GIVE THIS A SHOT 1. Omegaverse 2. The Alpha is a greenflag. 3. Fluff, and cheesey cliche romance. 4. Faceslapping and revenge. 5. Smut, with no dubcon or noncon. 6. OP husband. 7. Really cliche plot honestly. Those historical manhwas but make it gay. 8. The omega/bot is not a pushover. 9. I'm asking you give it a shot please.

(BL) My Evil Werewolf System

(Warning! BL mature content ahead!) Yu Weimin was a seasoned criminal. Attacking bureaucrats and making trouble for the Empire were part of his everyday schedule. It’s just that he never thought the Marshal he hated the most for several decades would suddenly use such a cheap trick to capture him.

[Ding.] [System Booting up] [Welcome to the Evil Werewolf System! I’m your system, 520!] Then, Yu Weimin was forced to jump from one world to another to save the villains. Wait, why do they seem like a certain Marshal he hates the most? Before he could confirm his suspicions, the villains started becoming stickier and stickier. Yu Weimin, “Honestly, did he capture me just to push me against the wall?” System 520: [.....Maybe?] Cold, heartless, and a criminal Shou X Smooth talker, egoistic, and vengeful Gong ***** Sneak peek~ Yu Weimin ignored his system and bent down to grab a certain little wolf by the neck. He stared at those red eyes filled with anger and slapped the wolf’s butt, making the latter shriek. A certain villain in his little wolf form bared his teeth. [Ding.] [Hatred value increased!] [Hatred value increased!] [Hatred value increased!] [Ho-Host…. Can you stop this?!! I’m gonna get a data error!!!!] Yu Weimin finally stopped torturing a certain villain and glared at the small pup in his arms. “If you dare to run away again, it won’t just be your butt that will face the consequences.” ***** Arc 1: ABO World!
