Firstly, the main character (MC) is not an evil character, to my liking and possibly not to yours. He is more of a neutral character trapped in the body of the villain, desperately trying to defy his destiny. The MC is largely confused about his identity and appears to be hurtling towards a fatal conclusion. The MC and the original hero are like two sides of the same coin; they both endured similar traumatic experiences, but one was favored by fate while the other is scorned by life. The hero, by virtue of being a hero, enjoys unfair advantages, while the MC relies in his "inner talent." Both are engaged in losing battles, the hero against the MC and the MC against himself. The story leans more towards shonen than seinen in manga terms, adhering to the classic tropes of reincarnation into a villain. The elements I appreciate: *No harem, slow romance *MC's powers: ice, chaos, space, gravity, and possibly more in the future *Well-executed fight scenes, though some battles seem too long *The dynamic of the hero striving to catch up to the MC, who is simultaneously trying to overcome his future self *Well-developed side characters The elements I disliked: *The plot takes time to settle at the beginning *Some power-ups for the MC and the hero needs more struggle to be acquired *Occasional typos in the first 100 chapters, though not overly bothersome *I wish for more updates *Some fights are lengthy, making them feel stretched *Last point is more of an untapped potential in exploring other races, planets, and worlds besides the humans and dragons Whether you consider this a perk or flaw depends on your perspective: *Clear improvement in the author's writing evident throughout the story *The narrative is a power fantasy In conclusion I enjoyed reading this novel despite some of it flaws and I can't wait to read more. That is why i decided to reward the author with a 5 star review.

LIKEhe hasn't been out of alan's influence where I stopped around (30 chapters for me to catch). However i don't know if it counts as a spoiler or not: James will have his moment where he helps him for whatever he is scheming for later on. It s not as bad as the chapters you're (200 ish) because it seems they have common interest. My theory is that alan, james and uranus will fuse together or alan is going to consume james and uranus personality. Hope it helps but since you asked about it 2 days ago you probably caught up or dropped it.
Loneee_3:Hey can you tell me when Alan is completely out of james influence?!. I am currently at ch-233 and it's getting difficult to read like it's too much angst in it.
nah I was waiting for someone to reply so I didn't start reading it from where I stopped. Though you have my thanks for the reply👍
