Chapter 1Demon Lord

I sat on my throne bored, extremely bored. There was nothing else to do, I have done it all. I the Demon Lord Kretos, have done what all the other Demon Lords before me failed to do, I have united the demon race, I also defeated the almost never-ending flow of human heroes. I was even able to conquer the whole continent and with that, there was nothing more. I who adored battle was unbeatable, not even my sons and daughters that I have made with my numerous concubines could match me.

There was no more battle to be had. I sighed once more as I drank the wine my firstborn son gave me. It was a gift for my thousand-year reign. The moment I drank the wine, my body felt groggy, what is this? I'm getting drunk after one drink? The moment I thought of this, someone entered the throne room. The one who entered was a handsome young man, who looked to be in his early twenties, this was my son and with him, he brought a bunch of magicians. He was smirking at me, this crazy son of mine what has he done?

"Good afternoon father, it seems like you're not feeling well."

"Galdo what have you done?"

"Nothing much father I just gave you a mana suppressing drug."

When I heard what my son said, I couldn't help but smile.

"Hahahaha, so it's finally happening my defeat is about to come. It seems like these old bones of mine have forgotten the tension of battle that's why I let my guard down."

"That is indeed true father, so why don't you rest now and hand me the throne."

The moment he finished speaking I dashed forward, ready to strike. Even with my mana suppressed my physical abilities were still excellent. With a sword at hand, I slashed down, at my own son using my full strength, to which he responded by blocking my attack with his own blade.

"Do you think it would be that easy? Do you think I would simply hand you the throne? How about a little bit of excitement before I give it?"

"I would love to play with your father, but... I'm in a hurry to solidify my rule."

The magicians that came with my son started attacking me with a barrage of spells. Without being able to circulate mana into my body I had zero resistance to magic. Still, I kept on fighting, as I smiled while laughing heartily.

I slashed down at my son, who blocked with his own sword. The floor cracked while the hand of my son trembled a bit. 

"As expected of the strongest even without mana your strength is unparalleled." I kept on attacking my son after he said that. Yet even with all my effort without any mana, muscle strength alone cannot bypass someone as strong as my son. 

Not only that this battle was happening while I was being bombarded by spells, that I could not dodge or defend myself. Yet that didn't matter to me, as long as I have my sword at hand, as long as I still have the strength, I will fight. 

After a few minutes of attacking I couldn't move anymore, my body which has survived numerous battles against many powerful foes was now unable to move. I know I'm supposed to feel frustrated after losing, but only feel liberated... So this is what it feels like to be defeated...

"As expected of you father, even without mana you could last this long. No wonder you are considered the strongest demon lord... I know you can't hear me anymore but seeing that stupid smile on your face I knew I did the right thing as your son."

The strongest Demon Lord conqueror of the world died at the hands of his eldest son, and even in the face of defeat he died standing with a big grin on his face.

'Divinity Online'. The new breakthrough in the Full-Immersion Virtual Reality technology. After decades of work, Divinity Corp had achieved the impossible. Creating a massive video game world that people can enter and live in as if it were Earth. Their goal was clear, to create a world other than Earth that we can call home. A place where the laws of reality vanish, and the true ceiling of power shifts completely. Naturally, the shockwave Divinity Online created across the entire globe was unlike anything else. Every single person has heard of it, even those who have had no interest in video games before. Giant corporations and even governments immediately rushed to start planning to invest in this new world and just like that, billions of people had their eyes on one single date: the 19th of July. *** Arthur, like everyone else, had heard of the game and was as excited as everyone else to try it, if not even more.

He had no money to buy the machine required to access Divinity Online. His wretched life had turned him into a broke teenager with no parents, and no relatives. But, by some kind of luck, he got his hands on one of those machines. Not knowing what was awaiting him in that world, Arthur was simply seeking one thing... A new opportunity in life and to find a purpose he could work for when he had none so far. [Welcome to 'Divinity Online'.] [Assimilation Started...]

All my reviews are truthful (The way I review originals and translations are different), I'm not going to try and inflate anyone's egos if the book doesn't justify it. Writing Quality 4/5: The transitions are pretty smooth, nothing much to say here. (There are naturally your occasional grammar mistakes, but I'm not going to nit-pick something so miniscule. These occasional bumps in the writing have no major effect on the actual flow of the writing, which is really good for an ******* writer on WN; where english isn't the first language for many of the readers/writers.) E.g, In this novel you get your occasional use of 'Superfluous Commas', (where the writer uses a comma before because even though it is not necessary.) Examples of the types of minor errors I'm talking about, Unlike his demon family who only respected him, because of his power (Now, your typical extremely minor mistakes.) Kretos tried to speak, but was unable to. It would seem that his body wasn't develop enough to do such a thing. - Let's be honest here, we all know that it should be 'developed' and our eyes would auto-correct it pretty quickly anyway. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was at this point in time, Kretos lifted his arms he finally noticed that his arms were small and dainty. This was not the arm of the supreme overlord, this was the arms of a baby. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Alright, it doesn't take a genius to recognize that these two sentences aren't perfect. Yet, we as your average readers can easily understand the general plot and direction the author is heading with.) Stability of Updates 5/5: The updates appear punctual (good to see) Story Development: The story is primarily about the MC progressing to become more 'human', he enjoys the warm feeling of love and care from a paternal family which is progress. Character Design: So far I can say that reading only 10 chapters, the MC has character. I admired the way he greeted his son's betrayal, even though it's not very 'realistic' in human terms I still enjoyed reading it nevertheless. Perhaps I've grown tired of the common trope, 'You, a haughty young master stared at my girl? Prepare for the nine familial exterminations.' Yet, this is also the character's double-edged sword. (You get the feeling that since he can greet death so casually, why won't he just do the same in his next life? — This may just be my own personal agenda against tropes like these, many readers would enjoy this type of MC though, so no massive complaints here.) The writer is able to give a seperate and unique personality to his main cast, so it doesn't feel like that we the readers are reading 2D cardboard cut-outs. So here's my conclusion, if you enjoy the magical world of 'elves', 'demons' etc you will probably enjoy this novel. Personally, it's not my cup of tea, the novels I enjoy are less main-stream. (The types of MC I admire also differ to this type of MC portrayed by the writer, but I can't comment on 'Writing Quality' in the review due to my personal preferences.) Overall Review: 4/5 (For an original it's definitely above average, but would I compare it to the likes of a novel like CCG, or perhaps even the averagely translated Shadow Hack? No fucking way.) My personal recommendations: Doomed To Be Cannon Fodder, Transmigator Meets Reincarnator, EMHS, Lord Xue Ying If anyone wants me to do an in-depth review, simply @reply to me in one of my reviews and I'll do a truthful in-depth review if I can actually understand the flow of the writing. (I write these reviews so that the section for determining whether someone reads a story is actually truthful and not full of deceit.)

I've had chapter 1 of this story opened in a new tab for almost 2 months ever since I found it while browsing for things to read, but I finally found the will within me to begin reading and find something good. Chapter 1, he dies. Makes sense given it's a Reincarnation novel. The grammar is painful to read, but I have hopes that it'll get better. I find the purity of the demon lord's lust for a fun battle to the death exciting. I prepare myself for the new experiences and people he'll meet when he reincarnates... and then it happens. Every sentence I read, every new interaction, reaction, and action the characters make makes me more and more nauseous as I scream (silently) into my pillow. It just gets cringier and cringier with cliches that I would normally be fine with thrown into the mix until I get to chapter 14 and I just can't take it anymore. The god awful sentence structure and comma placement is still bad, and I just can't. I tried turning off my brain and enjoying the story for what it is, but it wasn't enough. I check the comments and reviews to see a generally really positive reception for the story with a few outliers who share my opinion. I'm sure there's SOME kind of great, next level character development that really saves the story in the future, but I'll be crying myself to sleep and wondering if I'm really the crazy one for thinking this isn't writing worthy of praise before I ever get there. And yes, I'm well aware that everyone is entitled to their opinion and that some people do like the story, dear Author. Apparently many people like it, and I just don't get it. Don't try to reason with me: I'm just here to leave my honest review and then forget I read this. Hopefully my opinion gets buried by all of the positive reviews so people don't have to see my disparaging words.
