I give this full stars. I've always been a fan of Saekano and seeing a side-character slowly turns into a heroine is trully a bliss for me, not to mention the comedy of Su Li's curse never gets old.
Well, looks generic enough. King of assassins/mercenaries? Check. Reincarnation? Check. Martial/mystical arts world? Check. Crippled potential/body constitution/cultivation? Check. Adult mc on his second life acting like a spoiled and clueless child? Check. Loses your girl and has to get her back? Check. Duels to death against anyone who has slighted mc? Check. Young master antagonists? Check. Repetitive plot? Check. Same old plot devices, plot armor, tropes and cliches? Check. ‘Nuff said.
it's fanfic but is placed in novel section with chapter 29 onwards locked and writing quality is horrible it's really cliche novel with Chinese vibes of face slapping overall trash
The premise was great, but then author decided to make the MC a villain who commit nedless cruel actions and make bad choices for the sake of looking evil. For example he choose an evil cultivator he had just seen as his subordinate to manage a city, when he could have saved the city lord, who looked like a trustworthy person and had more experience with managing people. Another thing I disliked is the total massacre. Read some others dungeon novels, it makes no sense for the death rate to be that high. Who would want to enter a dungeon where armies get decimated? Humans are greedy, but not that stupid. And sometimes the same rules you made for the tower don't works for the sake of plot. For example when the experience didn't get absorbed immediately by the city lord or when the evil cultivator absorbed the experience from the monsters someone else killed; among these monster there was also one with one layer lower, but you previously said that one could absorb experience only from monster with the same or higher cultivation. There are many other little things i disliked and i truly think it is a pity that this story took such a turn.
