Review Detail of StarveCleric in Spare Me, Great Lord!

Review detail

StarveClericLv56yrStarveCleric

Will just slip in here and say that this is currently one of the most popular novels in China at the moment. It is famous mostly for its great lines (We have a lot of classical sayings in Chinese, and this novel tweaks them a bit to create a humorous twist to the story). Hard to tell how those jokes will turn out in English, but if it could be delivered well, I'm sure it will be an enjoyable read. Some background: Spiritual energy is gradually returning back to the world, and supernatural ability users are gradually awakening within the populace. Our MC, Lu Shu, comes from an orphanage, and he has a younger sister, which is actually a non-blood related younger child from the same orphanage who is very close to him. As the orphanage isn't really a kind place to them, the two children left the orphanage to survive in the world through their own means. By the time the story starts, life was hard, but they were still getting by with their own strength. Shortly after the story starts, the MC awakens to a system where he can trade the "hostility" of others into points where he could trade for stuff required for cultivation. However, the hostility must be directed toward him, thus beginning the days where our MC finds all ways to piss off others to win their hostility.

I really hope this girl is really treated as his sister and companion, and that the story would be focused in the two as a family, with absolute zero "romance" between them and preferably with no romance at all. And that that will Now be in live with the first kind beauty he encounter.

Sounds interesting

Oh, and the title Spare Me, Great Lord is actually referring to the enemies begging Lu Shu for mercy (from his vicious tongue), at least in the earlier parts of the story. An additional note, this book doesn't seem to be harem, at least until the part which I am currently at. In fact, romance plays quite a small part in the novel, especially considering the young age of the MC. Also, don't worry, unlike most stories of this sort, the actions of the MC won't be cringy at all.

Great review there! Ii will definitely look forward to this one. I hope they write the synopsis like this, complete yet without spoiling the whole story. This makes my anticipation even more. Good job there Starve!

Probably not or else they would have been blood related.

So, this is like putting Ultimate Scheming System and the Strongest System together... hard to tell if it's going to be a enjoyable reading or not.

Hmm I wouldn't say that it would be good to judge the story based solely on the story plot. I don't know how well it can be brought over to English, but the author has a writing style that involves clever usage of puns to make common situations funny.
