Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist

Heya, this is the author with a shameless review for his own novel.

Firstly, I would like to thank you all for supporting this novel so greatly. Please continue to do so and I will continue to write it. I promise that i will do my level best to improve the quality even more and making it an exciting novel.

Secondly, I would like to thank you all for pointing out any mistakes or inconsistencies that you found. Please continue to do so.

I have corrected all of them, I think. If I haven't, then it will start making sense in future chapters.

Please continue to support the novel in any way you can whether it be through power stones, comments, reviews, gifts, golden tickets, or privileged chapters. I would be very happy and would be even more motivated.

Thank you. Please enjoy the novel :)

Read up to chapter 20 and it’s good so far. Instead of other novels in this genre where the MC is a cringe ”alpha male” and the FLs are all mas*chists with room temperature IQ, MC pulls out his uno reverse card and despite not being a good person and being the villain in the setting makes himself out to be the hero and the hero to be the villain. It could still be done a bit better IMO by using a bit more subtlety and using his system and acting skills to make it out like he’s a misunderstood good guy.

Certain scenes and development though do feel somewhat rushed at times, and almost everything that happens the MC directly tells to the FL which I think weakens things. Instead of coming across as a 200 IQ 3D chess player that convinces the FLs that he’s a good person and the protagonist is ‘evil’ while not appearing to be involved at all, it’s more like an ad*lt lying to a gullible kid and they believe it no questions asked. An example is instead of letting the FL “sneak behind the MC’s back” to ask if the protagonist got married to 3 other girls, the MC tells her to go and ask. In the future having the FLs “accidentally discover” things would improve the novel IMO. Things people “figure out” by themselves are always more believable to them.

(Another example would be like if the MC gets injured protecting an FL somehow, instead of saying “look I got injured protecting you, I demand a kiss as compensation” or some other cringe line, MC ”tries to hide” his injury and the FL “discovers” it and realizes he cares about her enough to hide it so she doesn’t worry about him)

Stuff like that where MC has a more behind the scenes role would make things funnier imo.

Overall though the novel is quite good, and I think it’s a breath of fresh air from the nonsense I have to sift through on this platform on a daily basis.

It reminds me of “Regressor instruction manual” with Light KiYoung a little bit if you’ve ever read that novel.

The title hooked me on to this. Been reading novels of this genre for quite a while since they are different from the standard dumb lucky protagonist genre. Mc actually needs to think and form strategies to defeat the protagonist who is much stronger in the starting.

Love the pure evil villainous vibe from the mc. Hope the author continues to keep this vibe while not reducing the quality of the story.. Till now, it has been an amazing novel.

So far I really enjoyed this novel, the world is interresting and fun. Only the fights tend to dreg on and on, which can be boring.
Overall pretty good novel.
