    Just to be clear, there is no system and maybe 50 of the 150 chapters that i have read is told from the perspective of characters other than the mc.
    I found myself losing interest in the story and eventually dropped it.

    Idk if it's because I'm autistic, but these characters (except the eunuch) guess emotions 1000x better than me

    To me, it's just average. There are far better things to read out there.

    Additionally, the main character seems to appear in only about 50% of the chapters, if that. Much of the story revolves around the characters who interact with the main character rather than the MC themselves.

    Also, there's been very little harem development so far. I'm putting the book on hold for now; I might come back to it, or I might not.

    Everyone in this novel seems as dim-witted as bricks, and the world is completely nonsensical. The plot revolves around setting up cartoonishly evil villains who underestimate the main character (MC). However, the issue is that the MC is portrayed as the highest-ranking member of the adventure guild, so famous that every important person panics at the thought of offending him. Yet, despite his fame, no one actually knows him. It’s as if no one recognizes their country’s president because he occasionally uses a pseudonym.

    The villains are all flat, dull, and boring stereotypes who act like big shots just to set themselves up for a fall. Even though the MC does nothing, anyone who dares to be rude to him gets an entire chapter dedicated to how crossing him ruins their lives. A clerk at a shop is rude to him, and we get a chapter about how the clerk gets fired, can’t find work, ends up drunk and homeless, and is eventually used as a human experiment. A girl who bullied one of the characters in his entourage ends up dying as a junkie prostitute. There’s no subtlety; friends of the MC receive every imaginable blessing, while anyone else faces utter ruin. It’s as if being rude to this guy triggers the universe to intervene and destroy their lives for him.

    The MC himself is as dull as a bag of rocks. He’s rich, overpowered, and 40+ chapters in, he hasn’t done anything interesting. He’s only performed one action, and it wasn’t even a satisfying moment of dominance. Instead, we keep hearing about how great he is from people in other places, while those who directly interact with him treat him like garbage.

    Do not recommend. I couldn't get past a few chapters without closing the book out of frustration. The main character (MC) is supposedly one of the most powerful people in the world, but he acts like a complete beta. He is often seen as weak, and almost no one recognizes his true power, not even his girlfriend of over five years, who thought he was just a low-ranking adventurer. Even guild employees, who should have had access to his information, didn't know who he was. Worst of all, despite numerous wrongs committed against him, he takes it all like a sniveling worm. When these injustices come to light, he insists on only light punishments, saying he doesn't want to cause them problems. If anyone else had faced such treatment, they would be crying tears of blood, yet he wants to let them off with just a slap on the wrist.

    The synopsis section is as empty and uninformative as a typical Korean novel summary, making it clear that this is another clichéd modern-day dungeon novel. In a few chapters, literally everyone who wronged the protagonist gets their comeuppance. Spoiler:

    The guy who stole his ex-girlfriend gets a pay cut and is transferred to a less desirable branch location, based on what I could understand from the poor machine translation. His ex-girlfriend herself apparently dies, although the ending of that chapter was somewhat ambiguous and hasn’t been followed up on, so she might still be alive. A minor employee at a store turns the main character away at the door and is promptly fired in the next chapter.

    Temper your expectations when diving into this. It’s not bad, per se, but there is absolutely nothing original or groundbreaking about this novel.

    The title should be: SSS-Rank Adventurer Smurfing in Low-Levelled Dungeon with a Gal After Being Rejected

    The author wanted an NTR (Netorare) premise but glossed over it with a train of information dumps.

    **Spoiler:**
    "Why are you looking so clueless? It's obvious, isn't it? You're an adventurer with an unstable job. What's the point of marrying you? You went to college, but you're doing a job that anyone could do, even high school students. Your dating ideas are just as unimaginative as when we were in school. Sure, you're putting in effort today, but let's be real. Back in school, I thought it was cool that my boyfriend was an adventurer, and you made more money than part-time restaurant workers, so we had better dates. But you've never taken me to a nice place, and your rank as an adventurer hasn't gone up that much, has it? You lack prospects. I can't marry someone like you. Besides, I was proposed to by someone else recently. We've been dating for about six months, but unlike you, he takes me on mature dates. He takes me to nice restaurants. He's a Guild employee, and an elite one at that. Unlike adventurers, Guild employees are government workers with stability. Plus, he's just two years older than us, but he's already in a high position. He has a better future than you, and I've decided to accept his proposal. So, I came here today to say goodbye."

    Yeah, it's an entire paragraph for a single speech from the ex-girlfriend. The other characters also have similar traits, perhaps it was intentional?

    Storywise, there is nothing revolutionary. The main character (MC) has a doormat personality, getting wronged and just letting it slide. Personally, I think it was the definition of how an adult should handle things—don't bother with insignificant things.

    The story focuses on the MC taking on a new disciple in each volume (called a chapter on Kakuyomu). Each disciple shares the same premise: they have life problems. The MC solves these issues either by literally throwing money at them or by pushing his disciples to be more productive. So far, he has three disciples: two females and one male.

    The story doesn't dwell much on romance. Whether the female characters are into the MC or not is still up in the air. It is hinted that a member of his former guild, the Twilight Tea Party, had a thing for him. However, she hasn't gotten any screen time, and the romance has practically zero progress.

    The translations are decent in quality but drop a bit in later chapters. Common issues include misgendering, inconsistent names (Reito, Ray, Rei), and duplicated paragraphs. Fortunately, it's not as bad as other series.

    This is quite dull to read. As Touch-San mentioned in their review, everyone who wronged the main character (MC) is punished, and there’s nothing particularly innovative about this novel.

    Let me elaborate on that. There’s no real development for the MC. Honestly, it feels like the MC’s disciple is the true protagonist. So far, there have been multiple point-of-view (POV) chapters focusing on the people who wronged the MC, but these add nothing substantial to the story. At this rate, I have no idea what to expect or look forward to because the MC lacks any clear motivation and doesn’t have much depth. A significant portion of the 34 chapters I’ve read weren’t even from the MC’s perspective. It feels like the MC hasn’t done anything significant.

    As I always say, maybe it gets better later. Perhaps the MC will take some meaningful actions or something interesting will happen. Honestly, it just feels like a very bland slice of life because there’s no real action. The conflicts are resolved too quickly and superficially, almost like a slap in the face in a manhua. There’s just something missing, so read at your own risk.
