Before entering the Team Wildfire through the power of nepotism, Zuo Tao did his research regarding the male god.

The male god liked those who played games well, were easy-going, didn’t speak too much, and were well-behaved.

Zuo Tao could only meet the first item on the checklist.

From the above circumstances, it could only be concluded that —

To catch his male god,

He had to pretend.

*

To capture his male god’s heart, Zuo Tao walked on egg shells and thin ice every single day, fearing that he might blurt out things that did not fit with his character.

Until one day, at the end of a match —

Zou Tao kept his character of being well-behaved and participated in the post-match review. After all his teammates had left, Zuo Tao couldn’t bear it any longer; he lit a cigarette and planned to fully appreciate the beautifully stunning mechanics displayed by the male god.

Through the screen, he looked at the enemies in disdain and said, “With all due respect, you are all just noobs in front of my husband.”

He couldn’t possibly help himself; he continued to lick and screen and cry while beholding the recording of the game, coming up with all kinds of brainless obscenities:

“Wuwuwu, my husband was awesome today.”

“I really want to kiss my husband.”

“Ah, husband, please face the sun —”

As the words left his mouth, his head raised as he looked up and his eyes met with that of the male god’s, Song Shihan, who had left but had come back.

Zuo Tao froze, choking on the cigarette smoke ring he’d been forming in his mouth. His head twitched and, without input from his consciousness, he offered his burning cigarette over, saying, “Husband… take a puff?”

As if he had discovered something interesting, Song Shihan leaned against the door frame, raising his eyebrow slightly as he asked: “What should ‘face the sun’?”

*

Song Shihan had discovered their new little support’s secret within the first month after he joined the team. After introducing himself, their little support made sure to appear ‘well-behaved, quiet, and didn’t talk much’. Although he’d only said a few words, his face was flushed so red he looked like he was about to bleed.

He did look like quite the good boy.

Until one day, while he was smoking on the balcony, he saw the well-behaved little support nimbly throw his stalker, who’d been bothering him for days, over his shoulder and onto the ground. The move was so smooth that he looked like a habitual fighter.

The expression on his face was brazen, his eyes looked down disdainfully, and he spoke like an a**hole, spitting before he said: “Idiot.”

He wasn’t a good boy at all.

He was quite good at acting.

    Its alright, but not great.The translation is good, and there are no problems in the grammar.However, one of the characters in the book is Kobe Bryant, who is portrayed very differently to how i imagined him to be, and more like what a chinese author would think him to be.Slightly unrealistic in some of the world building aspects, and about 8 chapters and 2 months in, i srill dont know the names of the MCs family, or anything about the MCs family.6.2 out of 10

    ⚠️Spoilers⚠️:Two chapters in and there is already a massive plot hole. See, Merlin was one of the strongest figures in their world's history and his class was also the same as the MC's; an SSS-Class - Reader. But somehow, the very same teacher who used to brag about Merlin's achievements didn't recognize the MC's class even when Merlin's autobiography was available at the library. There is also the problem of the slightly less powerful, ice cold, and focused heroine. The side characters are two dimensional and didn't have proper development and they were used as items to drive the plot. In terms of the grammar, I didn't notice any big error but it was still a bit of a struggle to not focus on the minor errors.

    I stumbled across this novel randomly and I was initially expecting a run of the mill ‘villain with a system’ perspective, but I am glad it subverted my expectations. The story is quite intelligent in that it introduces you to a ‘villain’ that is more of an anti-hero, in my opinion, who has advantages because of his rebirth and the system, but still has to use his wit and experience to figure things out as they come…he doesn’t just get everything handed to him on a platter.I also like that the plot is multi-layered and we find things out just as the protagonist does so in a sense we are living the experience along with him. I will say though that at the start, the plot was slow getting off the ground but it’s understandable since the author is learning the ropes as well.Overall, it’s a great book so far, and I can’t wait to find out more as things develop further!

    I don't even want to waste time reviewing this novel. Alas I must do so for the betterment of my fellow readers. So here it goes. This novel is...toxic waste. Avoid at all costs.

    Oh my god, the translation quality is goddamn bad. I dont event know who is the retard one, author or the translator.The MC is fucking idot with a wife. When he ia having a wife, the author give him 3 potential new heroin, the other characters are split into 2 : 1. Really good people with honest personality2. Fucking retarded **** who think he is a godThe more idot thing is, he got skill book, poison master for "PRIESTS" and fucking revive for "KNIGHT". And in the next chapter, humanoid monster thiev class have poison skill on themAnd the most basic thing the mc should do, to add friend the studio owners after he got into the game, but he didn't, its coz the author want to make the mc look so awesome and give exaggerated comment on the mc when he reveal who he was in the gameOverall, this novel is so basic, the translation is shiet, but who i am to judge. I only can leave a review.

    Let's start with your writing quality. Maybe my standards are too high, but your sentences are too long (some parts are honestly unnecessary) and some phrases are misplaced. I suggest you read about grammar rules on misplaced modifiers. You should also edit your usage of punctuations, so you can seperate your long sentences better. You're also somehow using some words wrongly.For example in first chapter:"Is that anyway to talk to me? I remind you that without me you would be nothing!"You can rewrite it as:"Is that how you're supposed to talk to me? Let me remind you, you would be nothing without me!"There are more errors, but I'll move on to the next.Story Development. The reason why he died is because he wanted to end the contract. So they blackmail him, then they kill him and the reason is too shallow-- he wanted to end the contract. Since this is under realistic fiction, he will only be blacklisted at most or more blackmail will be used. To make it better, why don't you add more enmity for the main lead. You also didn't mention how he adjusted and stuff.Character design. It's a bit confusing to read since the personality of other's aren't that distinct. But it's okay. World Background. It's somehow clear. Overall, it's good.
