Life of a Villain

  • Genre: Eastern
  • Author: REaper
  • Translator:
  • Status: Ongoing

  • Rating(3.8 / 5.0)

Our lives are based on lies.

Historically, heroes were supposed to be the role models we looked up to, but were they?

Some of them steal other people\'s fiancées, murder people to make a point, and so on.

If these are the heroes, then who was the villain?

Does being killed by a hero make someone a villain?

Has anyone had the experience of living the life of a villain? Were they truly the villains we were led to believe they were?

    I'm not usually a fan of cultivation novels and the sort, but I won't lie, there's something about this book that is quite intriguing. I love your writing style and how simple your sentences are. I can tell that you paid a lot of attention to your spelling and grammar. I hope that you're novel gets more recognition. Honestly, keep up the good work [img=recommend]

    pretty good novel so far. the overall idea of the story is executed nicely without being written like the typical cultivation novel. maybe the pace of a story is a tad bit slow, but if you could keep regular updates (maybe daily?) i can see this novel have great success, or maybe this last part of the pace and updates can just be my wishful thinking and overall preference. anyway keep up the good work and hope to see more

    CRITICAL REVIEW

    I'm critical, but I'm lenient enough to give 5s if it is entertaining or written well. You deserve it! Although its going to be a 4.8!

    Read 113 chaps (which is basically current as of this review).

    To be honest, I don't reach much anti-hero stories of ruthless MCs on the level of like revered insanity so it was a refreshing read. Well actually this story is as the title says "Life of a Villain". For this MC, he's definitely a villian than a anti-hero.

    Writing quality - pretty much almost no errors really. If there's a unneeded complaint that would be for it have more descriptive in writing. It's already done enough to convey its point and most importantly its a web novel. This ain't no published book you find from a bookstore.

    Story development- Good pacing but a little on the slow side. The later the chapters, the faster it goes. It has clichés' sure, but its definitely an above average cultivation novel. I would definitely recommend it.
    Its interesting to see an the MC ruthlessly cut all paths and makes sure that his enemy, the novel's protagonist, absolutely can't ever stand against him.

    Character wise, the story does only try to flesh out the real major characters. Key word is try.

    On the other hand, because of the pacing and chaos, it does feel that side characters are left out. I don't think that's a bad thing. For this author's story this is sufficient and particularly due to one major circumstance:  the MC has his cheat, but also has many resources from the getgo which other cultivation stories force the MC to slowly get.

    As for my favourite character, probably only the Sect Master of Eternal Palace. Much like other characters in his position, we only really see events that force him to come for plot convenience. However, its refreshing and somewhat unique seeing a smart sect master making the wise choice to side with the mc. Even though he doesn't have much feelings for him and is basically forced to.

    The dynamic of the MC and the protagonist is something that I will continue to enjoy in the series.

    As for other characters, surprisingly meh.

    I will reiterate: most of the characters in the novel only feel that they are there to serve their purpose. I won't deny the story plot is interesting, and they fulfil their role well, but as a consequence that's what they end up feeling like and its been 100 chaps. It might be an inevitable consequence,

    World Background. It's a huge world. Lots of connections between places influencing the three realms already in 100 chaps. Downside? Due to the story's nature, the actual individual places and stuff in the world is not fleshed out. I still will give it a 5 tho after all, it's good enough for what this story is trying to tell.

    Love the story though! And will continue to read it~~

    Hoping to find a heroine to ship as I usually do in harem stories.

    Typical Cultivation and Transmigration Novel. Started off fine, but MC is still referred to as Andy. I dont care that was his previous worlds name and he doesnt feel like he belongs in this world. If the setting has only chinese names, adapt your MC to have a chinese name. If he wanted to pay homage to his name Andy here is a good name for you to use. An Di. Faking his suicide and adapting a new name is a good plot point. Since he doesnt want to be around that clan its good to be out on his own as he knows the story and its plot. But seriously to use an English name and no one thinks that it isnt weird?
    Had to drop because the name Andy was in nearly every paragraph each chapter. Very hard to get into a story that is supposed to be Chinese Cultivation but somehow isnt due to a single word.

    The plot was a bit common with the same orphan thing in the starting but still, you did your best to make it different from others. The book is still in its starting stage so I can't say much about it but I bet its a promising novel.
    so keep it up and sorry for the late review.

    the beginning of the story is quite interesting but the longer you read it turns into a MC novel who is very easily offended, he kills here and there without thinking, just because he has the inheritance of a demon god.
