Well, this is a review after I read 84 chapter. What to say about this book? It is promising, the premise is intriguing and also very interesting, sure it's a story about dungeon Master but here we discover a new system more sophisticated. The fact that MC came back from time is also a big plus because he won't stay weak for too long and he's not acting like a noob who doesn't know what to do. Tbh, my feeling are complicated about MC. He is intelligent, cunning and also has the trait of a demon being merciless and treating everyone as tool (not minding their feeling) It's good but also annoying to read. /!\ Spoiler Alert /!\ For exemple, when he rode on a worm to find where it rest to steal it's egg, I was rly annoyed by what he did like, this worm saved him from death in his past life but what he did in return now? He mercilessly stole her egg even though he should know the feeling of being betrayed. To me, he's really hypocrite, "Don't do to others what you don't want them to do to you". Well, maybe I'm the only one bothered but I wanted to complain "-" Anyways, MC is pretty skillful but sometimes I feel that he's also making dumb decisions even though he should be aware of some fact since he survived til the end of the game ( I forgot which mistake but I know that it was dumb for someone who experienced the game once). Side character, they have near to zero screen time or importance, they're only here to fulfill their role and that's all. They're bland, no emotion, it's boring seriously if there's only the MC. For exemple we have his first slave, Guo Chen, he should be (in MC first life) one of the six greatest hunter, but here I saw just a emotionless character calling brother here and there, just following his order. We lack seriously some side character dialogue or inner monologue to understand what they feel right now. There's also a sever lack of information about the game, it's purpose/goal, about demon family and so on. I hope someday author explain it to us or will it be unexplained ? idk To finish, this novel has his strength but also weaknesses. Still it is definitely a hidden gems that is uncovered, let it have it's chance and you may not regret it who know :)

LIKEThe novel description makes it sound like the mc is male, but if side characters are so lackluster I'm pretty confused about why a woman is on the cover, especially since there's no tags to indicate romance or lemons or anything else like that. Could you let me know what that's about before I begin reading?
Well, like I said he's like a real demon so he doesn't rly care about romance (right now at chapter still no romance) but he may use it to manipulate other to his advantage. As for the woman on the cover, it's the Duchess on chapter 1, the last enemy he killed before getting betrayed.
