    The character's approach to seeking revenge is highly unconventional and doesn't logically align with her vendetta. She holds a grudge against the government responsible for torturing and killing her over a non-existent connection to a father she never knew, yet she chooses to target an unrelated criminal underworld for retaliation.

    Her justification involves forming a pact with a soul to harness its power, but the benefits of this alliance don't justify the effort. With her demonstrated abilities, she could have potentially brought down the kingdom through causing a devastating crop failure and famine, then collecting the spirits of those who resented the government's inability or unwillingness to assist them. Post-bolstering herself with the energy of a nation in crisis, she would have the means to storm the palace effortlessly.

    However, instead of opting for a more justifiable course, she embodies the very thing she despises by possessing a child's body and forcibly suppressing their soul for her own convenience. This act is particularly cruel, considering the child's innocence and their status as a law-abiding, morally upright 11-year-old who had no part in the previous events.

    In summary, the author appears to struggle with the "I Don't Know How to Write Humans" trope commonly found in light novels, resulting in an inconsistent and implausible portrayal of the character's actions.

    As I continued reading to gain a clearer understanding, I must say that the content is commendable but the narrative structure could be improved. Personally, I believe the story would have resonated more if it focused on a personal vendetta rather than an apocalyptic theme. The initial chapters up until 1-38 revolve around the protagonist's resentment towards the irrationality that led to their mother's death, which feels out of place given the grand scope.

    The prologue's disconnect stems from its attempt to justify the character's actions through a sense of fairness, rather than a desire for pure evil. It would have been more compelling if the story portrayed an innocent individual seeking justice for their unfortunate circumstances, rather than a world-ending force.

    I yearn for novels with a more nuanced morality, where characters' actions aren't driven solely by malevolence. It's a tale of an innocent girl who, through a tragic turn of events, seeks retribution against those responsible for her downfall, making for a more relatable and engaging narrative.

    Sure, here's the response in English:

    Yeah, I'm confused. The story flows seamlessly, and there's a clear motivation for the main character to enter a contract and target the criminal gang. One reviewer mentioned a minor boost from fulfilling the contract and consuming a soul gently rather than forcefully, which seems like a decent advantage, even for a low-level undead. It's also evident that there's potential for significant growth through this method, although there might be limits.

    The reviewer suggests she could potentially end the kingdom, but she received guidance from the evil god that she's not yet strong enough, so she's advised to stay低调. However, after a close call, she didn't back down entirely; she used cunning to escape a much stronger opponent. Her character is complex, balancing hatred, guilt, fear, inner turmoil, and humiliation with a longing for happiness, fairness, and purpose. She's ruthless and self-centered but works on self-improvement, grappling with the guilt of taking an 11-year-old's soul.

    Throughout the first few chapters, she never explicitly stated that she wants to kill everyone in the kingdom after her execution; her focus is on personal happiness without suicidal tendencies. The narrative feels authentic and relatable as she learns and evolves, unlike some revenge stories that rely on mindless rage and chaos.

    Overall, I'd rate it 4.5 stars if possible. The only issue is the slow translation, as the original translator stopped, and the current translators, Isohungry Translations, are struggling to keep up. It's unfortunate that not everyone can access the raw versions, which offer a more human touch and grounded fantasy with psychological depth, avoiding excessive violence and insanity.

    The story is situated above average, but the main revenge theme isn't particularly captivating. The protagonist is broken but retains her sanity, acknowledging the wrongness of her actions and has been given a second chance at life. To put it bluntly, the series would have been exceptional if the main character had reconsidered her goals early on and chosen a fulfilling path. The characters are outstanding, rich with depth, and feel like authentic human beings with intricate relationships and character growth. The illustrations in the light novel are stunning and definitely worth checking out.

    However, my main issue lies with the plot. Despite resolving some conflicts, the protagonist sacrifices the well-developed connections for an emotionally charged climax (which was effective), and the narrative shifts back to gratuitous violence driven by revenge. While the fight scenes are decent, the MC's power progression feels contrived, relying on a convoluted explanation for gaining strength through resentment. Despite these reservations, I'm committed to continuing as I genuinely care about her happiness and wish for her to let go of the escalating vendetta. I yearn for her to experience genuine emotions like joy, vulnerability, and peace, and to find solace and healing.

    "It's excellent! If you enjoy stories with a subtle Yuri subplot for TS (Transgender) characters, this one is a great recommendation. It's quite unusual to find a TS-focused narrative without a prominent Yuri theme. The story primarily revolves around wars and grudges, based on the web novel (WN) source. And there are plans for a volume 2 release."

    The book genuinely exceeded my expectations, as I had not预见它会有如此高的质量。前15章节通过生动描绘角色的性格和特质,成功营造出一个不那么机械的世界。尽管是以复仇为主题,但故事并未止步于此,因为主角在力量上远超反派,这使得角色之间的互动、成长以及力量提升成为小说的一大亮点。整个故事似乎暗示着,真正的幸福源于朋友的陪伴和自我认知的深化之旅。

    Certainly, the novel's prologue draws evident inspiration from the French Revolution, albeit with a somewhat稚嫩的 portrayal, akin to impulsive children without fully grasping the consequences. I'll refrain from divulging further details. The characters, on the other hand, feel more authentic as individuals navigating and experiencing life within their world.

    The protagonist, unfortunately, comes across as rather naive, raising questions about how he managed to secure his position at a seemingly sinister organization – I won't delve into that aspect. At times, it feels like his innocence almost derails the narrative, which could have been more compelling if balanced differently.
