This story is just boring. Nothing really happens, and all 28 free chapters are just one big training arc. I didn't get a single moment of excitement or hype. It was a tough read, to be honest. Maybe things get better later on, but I'm not gonna waste hours slogging through garbage just to get to one decent chapter.

His review has been here for nearly 2 months, do you really think I didn't delete it only because I didn't notice it? Everyone can share their opinion of my book as long as it's not insulting or offensive, even if their opinion is negative. I firmly believe in the value of my own creation, and I thank the fans who have been sticking around and reading my novel despite the slower pace at the beginning. If you want my response to the comment, then the first volume does not have any life-and-death situations until chapter 24 where the action begins, but it's full of power system building for those who are not familiar with the Chinese cultivation world, and we get to know the main character's circumstances, growth as a child, and personality. After the first volume, the story has action, scheming, and more. My book contains 0 fillers, every chapter has plot progression, and I do my best to make the story as interesting as I can.

i disagree. after reading 2 volumes, i like that the author doesn't like wasting time, Ken has quick progression (almost too quick), every volume is around 30 chapters. Every volume either starts a new plot point or wraps up an old one (from what I've read so far). The story is rather fast paced and majority of the first volume is dedicated to establish ken's character. Its solid writing.

I agree that the first 28 chapters can seem slow but at the end of the day most good stories are like that due to having to set up the world building and characters so I feel it is overly harsh to judge this story by just those chapters but sadly due to the premium system I cannot begrudge a reader doing so...😅 Anyway I kept reading on and can vouch that the second arc has a lot more action and progress 👍 MC's development as a manipulative savant is to my liking so maybe use some powerstones to read a little bit further 😉

Hey everyone, the story has been here for a while. I write this new review because I've rewritten the first volume, or more specifically, chapters 25-30, due to my own preferences. After editing, Ken is not a villain in the first volume, so don't come here crying about the villain tag without reading the second volume. My definition of a villain is someone who harms or kills innocent others for their own selfish reasons and benefit. If that's not enough for you, you can call Ken an antihero, I don't really care. Other than that, I will go over what I said in my first review (which I will leave so you can read the 23 replies on it if you want although they will be summarized here). 1. Although MC is intelligent in general, understanding is the most important part of his intelligence. Understanding cultivation and techniques in order to improve them and advance fast. He doesn't know the future, and he is neither Kira nor Lelouch. 2. MC is still young and not immune to developing emotions toward others. Some are positive, some are negative. I do my best to develop his character in a unique and realistic way. 3. Companions - MC is not the only long-term character in the story. 4. Criticism - His villainous actions were quite sudden and came from nowhere. Irrelevant now after editing the first volume. 5. Criticism - Indeed, the first volume focuses on Ken's growth with limited action, especially towards its conclusion. However, subsequent volumes ramp up the action as he ventures out. I believe the first volume's depth in character development is just as captivating, even without the intense action, and it helps us get attached to Ken. 6. No romance, no harem. 7. While familiar cultivation concepts appear in the first volume, it's primarily focused on explaining the power system and sect structure, not assuming prior reader knowledge. In subsequent volumes, as the MC interacts more with the external world, the background and world-building become increasingly detailed and enriched. By the way, the volumes are short, four volumes over by chapter 190 or so. 8. If you're confused by the power system (which isn't too complicated), you can easily find a summary in the auxiliary chapter. Just don't read Ken's techniques which appear later if you don't want any spoilers. That's it for this review, I think I covered everything. Hope it wasn't unnecessarily long!

Strongest Mage with the Lust system

[ Warning: Mature content R-18 ] Is death a new begining? For Max, it was. Max, a twenty-year-old virgin, got attacked by a bear in forest and died an untimely death. Fortunately for him... that wasn't the end to his story. In the next instant, he found himself transmigrated into the body of a noble's youngest son in a world full of Magic, wonders and... beautiful women. As if God was making up for his untimely death, he also got a system -The Lust System. "I can become stronger just by having sex?" Join the journey of Max and watch he have the time of his life and become the strongest mage the world had ever seen before. ______________________________ [Things to be noted] 1. From the title, you should've guessed it already but let me tell you the story will be filled with many sexual adventures. So... you are welcome to enjoy them..... 2. However... don't expect MC to have sexual relations with every woman he meets. I'll be focusing on the story, and would 'Try' not to blindly throw sex scenes left and right. 3. Most importantly, this is my first time writing so the the quality of first 50 or so may be a bit lacking (But it would cause you no problem if a few minor errors don't bother you). 4. It is a slow paced story. If you want everything to be explosive and fast, maybe this isn't for you. Important Note: If you enjoy the story then don't forget to vote your GTs, Power stones and also if you can, send some GIFTS too. This poor soul would appreciate it.
