The story isn't focused on the main character's past experiences, which is a nice breath of fresh air. Instead, the story progresses rapidly, and focuses on him learning about solely the new world. I had intended to write a review earlier, but I kinda got sucked into the plot... 10/10 novel. Would recommend.

The story so far is interesting, well written and well thought out. First of all: The MC reincarnated into a monster, he is similar to a human to allow him to blend in. BUT this is the farthest thing from those novels where the monster MC tries to befriend humans, our MC is ruthless and actively hunts humans. The character development is reasonable. He is a human that reincarnated with a system. The origin of the system also seems reasonable, although we still don't know nearly anything about it. So far the MC had multiple friends accompany him, they are enjoyable. Moreover the MC isn't obsessed about his past life, instead he tries to live his new chance at the best of his capabilities. And about plotarmor, not sure how much stat in it the MC has but he has failed multiple times, and done so even when the life of certain friends depended on it. I highly reccomend giving this novel a read. You won't regret it, I am sure of this.

Honestly.. I’ve been hooked since day one of reading this book when i first jumped on Webnovel. Admittedly, lately i have been reading a lot of Star Wars reincarnation books so i keep going away and coming back but of all the books i have in my library i only feel the need to comeback to this one. My point is that i enjoy this book a lot and i know that I will not only get the action as Promised but a great story line and a humorous MC I love books that can make me start laughing out loud. Keep up the great novel. I’m not one to review many books or products but you’ve earned it!

First off I'll be straight forward. I don't like this book. Not because it's poorly written or a bad premise but mainly because key parts of the main character are developed during time skips. Anyways for the breakdown... The book is very easy to read, spelling and grammatical errors are few and far between. Technical wise the book is a delight compared to some stories which are so badly edited it makes your eyes bleed as the writer/translator tries to maintain their own languages nuances in English. Story development... the plot is well laid out, the pacing is okay, as initially stated though this delight to watch unfold gets a kick in the proverbial balls at the end of volume one and the story skips a year. Things go down hill from there. Character design... I honestly love all the supporting cast. From the monsters to the humans all are well written and fleshed out... the main character however is a mess. Very early on its revealed he has a hero complex and while its believable that he becomes a monstrous hero the fact he goes full Hannibal over a single chapter is mind blowing stupid. There's no conflict of morality of having a human become a monster, its just 'Eh I'm a monster now, when in Rome!' Even worse is a key part of his character development happens during the volume one end time skip, its just thrust upon the readers as hey look, he has a new major character issue during that year that you know might have been interesting to learn about... except is thrown in when faced against a Supreme opponent... ignoring the fact he faced a similarly impossible existence not a few chapters prior and didn't use it... Its like the author pulls this super power out of his ass on a whim, no build up or hint just bam Kace is now the juggernaut with plot armor. Updates... I think it updates regularly, after the above issue I couldn't read anymore. The fact the author skipped time again soon after this super power was enacted just killed my desire to continue. World Background... the world is well flushed out. The setting is very interesting. Just a pity the eyes we get to experience it through is just trash. If the story was literally focused on anyone other than the MC we'd see more of this great world. Overall, its a great technical read, I encourage you to read it for yourself. The time skips over integral main character developments/plot progression is what killed it for me, such may not be true for you.

Oh, this is a fun novel to read! I found myself smiling as I read the dialogue and MC's thoughts and that's always a good sign to me. The characters and world are vividly described and while I do not read a lot of videogame/reincarnation novels this is one I will definitely keep tabs on as the author updates. Keep up the fabulous writing and I'll keep reading!

The story is an interesting twist where the hero is a monster, but there are also many other reincarnators that are humans. the only complaint i might have is some of charecters seem somewhat stereotypical, and the protagonists mindset is somewhat weak. all these could change though and overal the novel is great

I can tell the author of this story is very young. He's still very idealistic and believes everything the tv tells him to be true. He also is clearly a virgin and I don't mean that as a negative. I think it's admirable to be a virgin these days. I'm just saying this is why he doesn't seem to understand women and what they like. The MC is a yes man to women. He simply thinks that because someone is a woman that they need to bend over backwards for them. I'm not a fan of this behavior myself and that is why I dropped it. I also could be wrong, but I saw many comments throughout the story of unhappy readers, but when I see the reviews here they are all good reviews. Deleting reviews or? I really wanted to like this story because the idea isn't bad. I can read literally any Japanese manga and get Mc's like this. Losers that think they are morally superior and let women step all over them. MC IS A...

I read till ch 104 and couldn't continue. The biggest problem is the lack of depth in chs. The story paid attention to irrelevant details thus making the story very slow paced and the Mc's train of thought is all over the place; Although this might be on purpose to emphasize character development it still made the story confusing. With that being said, if you can handle more than 100 chs the story might pick up speed later by focusing on crucial information rather than fillers. If you disagree with me I totally get it my friend is the biggest example. Ps: he is into lifestyle novels and likes unnecessary details if you're asking about the good rating after what I said. it's due to the writing quality although it's not perfect it is of high standard and the update stability is pretty good.

The novel is well written but the mc's change happens to quickly without any trigger The world building could be better explored it feels like a waste not to The mc's personality is indistinct , when he changes like a chameleon forcing the reader to ask what? and how? over every 3-4 chapters Ps: some chapters could be combined for more fluidity like when fights take entire chapters

The world was cruel..... Especially for those who had lost their chances to shine. Aether was one of them.... Born with a golden spoon... yet, he was cast aside like a defective product. He longed for love, for warmth—but all he received was pain. Yet, he smiled, not because he wanted to, but because he had no other choice. With nothing but a broken heart and a hollow laugh, he stepped into the hell called society. "Can't you do a single thing right?!" "…Heh" "You're fired!!!" "…W-Wh…He" "I'm sorry, sir, but you need at least a bachelor's degree to apply." "…I-I am…Heh" "We can’t approve a loan without collateral." "…W-Why?" "Your father’s a politician, right? So, you know…" "…" The so-called society didn't welcome him very well... Yet, He pressed forward! After years of struggle, he finally secured a job—only to be reminded of his place. "Yeah, yeah… I know you got the job thanks to me. So don’t ever contact me or MY parents again," his brother sneered. "...Heh..." And just when he thought he had finally earned a sliver of recognition— "HONK!! HONK!!" Fate was merciless. A split second, a cruel twist, and his already miserable life came to an abrupt end. Yet, as the darkness closed in, he screamed into the void— “I JUST WANT TO LIVE!!!!!” A will that even the universe listened. !~Ding~! Reborn into a new world, Aether thought he had finally been given the chance to truly live. But instead of peace, he found himself in yet another struggle—not just to survive, but against something even more dangerous… Seduction!! Not just any seduction… but a mission to seduce and save the most unattainable women in existence! Seducing the Princess of an Empire! Seducing the Hero’s Mother! Seducing the Villain’s Wife?! ..... ... .. And the list only kept growing… He, a Mere slave, seduces them all.... WHAT KIND OF F## UP LIFE WAS THIS?!! But it wasn’t OVER—far from it....

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.
