Firefrost : Mr Grumpy and His Little Flower

Hello! I am Tigr4!This is my first original story and the second one I've posted, with the first being a fanfiction.I won’t talk about my first work posted because it was quite disappointing, and I made a lot of mistakes with it.But this one is different… I think.Here are some things you can expect from this story:First: A reasonably decent romance, I believe, and fun to read.Second: A character with a mindset very different from typical Xianxia protagonists. He’s not obsessed with perfection at every step, and as strange as it sounds, it actually makes sense.Every Xianxia protagonist seems obsessed with achieving perfection, often making their journey much harder than if they were simply "normal."Why face 500 million celestial tribulation lightning bolts when the usual is just 9? All for a power that supposedly allows fighting between realms, yet in the final stages of cultivation, perfection often doesn't make much of a difference, and, most of the time, they can barely defeat someone just a few levels above them within the same realm.The fact is, as surprising as it may seem, they pursue this perfection and nearly die countless times for it. And what’s the ultimate goal? Immortality! They almost kill themselves repeatedly, relying on "plot armor" just to survive the disasters they themselves cause in the pursuit of immortality.Typical features of perfection in Xianxia stories: fighting between realms, and a slow, problematic level-up progression compared to what the MCs should reach.My MC will only pursue "near-perfection," fight between realms, and have a much faster level-up progression.Third: What kind of second was that? Is this crazy author insane?!Fourth: In the first 5 chapters, I messed up the word count, and they ended up being short. I made the following chapters much longer, and by chapter 12, they already exceeded 15,000 words. The average now is 1,500 words or more, excluding the first few chapters.Fifth: There is no fifth point.Sixth: Leave some Power Stones and happy comments, don’t disrespect me, or I’ll cry!Seventh: In the first 13 chapters, the MC is quite lonely. Personally, I like the story more from chapter 14 onwards.Eighth: Eighth.Ninth: Oh, I just remembered now that this is a list of what to expect...

It's 2031, it been a year since the Alpha Event, and all the places in the world where the cities are wiped out are now filled with thick forest. And it looks like the forest is expanding outwards and spreading rapidly, in a span of 7 months the forest which grew on New Yore already expanded 100 miles more.

Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid

"Delicious~"

He noted to himself that Xu Mingyue was easily bribed by food.

Joe froze right after I finish my words. Right before he open his mouth and sound his response, I cut right in (Since you have been reading novels about fantasy and reincarnation related, I will cut it short and just finish the ritual.) Frozen once more while listening to me Joe only responded with a nod while his mouth still opened with awe.

Allendre stood up next, as he doesn't want to be left by her sister again.

There is one guy in mythology that I like much, he was given many names, Satan, Lucifer, King of hell, the Devil. Pick whatever you want hehehe.
