Psychic (BL)

Binged/skimmed it to ch 100
It's focused more on the mystery/psychology. The author dabbles into physics and metaphysics; I look forward to CG's translations to those parts because whew.

There's not much romance, but quite a lot of character growth. Minor characters aren't one- or two-dimensional. Psychological parts are written well. All in all, I'm probably going to binge to the end because it's a pretty good story.

Not much romance so don't get your hopes up. 

Oh my god I cannot believe that he have the most screentime. Because you see, in the chapters 15 onwards they both don’t click the first time they met and interact. I was hoping for the police officer but he was kinda off the moment they met so my ship sunk the moment they meet 

This is one of a more dark story and it seems like a breakthrough for the author. Although from the end notes of the story the author wrote this when she lost someone dear and this story give u the feeling of falling into dark and then light at the end. (Just my personal opinion)
Spoiler: BIG dont read if you dont want to be totally spoilML is the psychologist.

The story is like a series of stories but there is actually a underlying current under it. MC is part of a sect who practice modern ‘taoism’ and MC is kind of able to foresee the future. So he plotted to let his younger sect sister and another person to ‘kill’ him and they both got great powers. This happen a few hundred years ago. The guy use it for bad - he is behind some of the events - like the singer and will appear later. The sister though used it for ‘good’ but when she heal someone she is harming someone else and it actually resulted in bad karma - some of those people with special powers is due to her past actions. The sister ‘died’ but their master actually used forbidden art to resurrect her without her memories. The sister is ‘not bad’ to say as in the end she also sacrificed herself with MC to ‘heal’ all the wrong that have been done. Their master is ‘bad’ as he was going to sacrifice innocent for power and is one of the thing MC foresee and tried to stop.

All these happen because someone want to be a ‘god’ but the world cannot agree or bear the burden of a human god which will destroy all so MC plot all these to stop them. He get stronger as he absorb more darkness and he used it to help a dragon to ascend (which is allowed). MC used the last of his powers to resurrect the young boy (MC is already a god but to prevent damage to the world he has been letting his real body sleeping and he is moving around in soul form). MC expected to die but he is allowed a second chance with ML.

This is one of the most ‘unromantic’ story from the author as MC and ML are cool headed person but they do let each other know they care for each person. ML even know later about MC unusual status - as MC is inhibiting a ‘dead’ body that is why he has the same requirement as the boy corpse he raised. But i have to say it is interesting and memorable story although a lot darker than most i normally read 

Ambiguous a lot. ML is really a cool person although he was really affected when he though MC is gone. So he took it upon himself to raise the boy. The romance is like a slow melting of ice berg and u can feel them getting closer as the ice melts. Quite different from her other books that I have read where the romance is quite fiery. 

thank you for the spoiler! I like how different this story is from other BL. Although you said this is unromantic novel, are there any moments with the Mc and ML maybe kissing or any ambiguous actions? 

Are there any antagonists? And who is the ML? 

As of 107, there really isn't an antagonist. There are multiple villains/bad guys that come and go, but I wouldn't call them antagonists as their crimes aren't specifically aimed towards the MC. The story is more like a classic noir with supernatural elements.

No ML as of 107, but the most screentime is the Spoiler: Psychologist: Psychologist has a psychopathic disposition. I'd say he's haphephobic but it's not really a fear, just a strong dislike of being touched/touching another person. He disdains the world and sees himself as the lone man on top -- as MC describes it, "Ninety-nine percent of the world’s people are trash to you, and the rest are objects you can observe and play with". MC also describes his heart as an abyss during their first meeting. This is revisited multiple times in their interactions together.

Psychologist actually also despises himself and self-flagellates to remind himself not to fall into temptation. Coupled with his high IQ, he often plans the perfect crime in his mind -- how would he capture the victim without getting caught, how would he torture the victim, etc -- glimpses of his dark mind are revealed through other spiritualists that are introduced later. Psychologist is more than capable of becoming a serial killer, especially with his ties to the police and his ability to fool other psychologists.

Throughout the story, MC slowly starts "healing" the Psychologist throughout their interactions. With one sentence, the MC was able to appease the Psychologist to stop him from self-flagellating. MC gives hope to the Psychologist by telling him that the abyss has a weak star shining through. Later, Psychologist starts actually smiling and will show goodwill towards the MC. Interactions with others are starting to become more human, kinda (he'll still wipe his hands after touching someone, but at least he makes the attempt to do so).

Psychologist is also showing possessiveness towards MC around this time (e.g. MC tries to wipe the tears of another spiritualist but Psychologist hands her a tissue and basically orders her to wipe her face herself lol. Other spiritualist can feel Psychologist's animosity and hides behind MC)..

Other characters you mentioned don't have a lot of screentime, so my bet is Psychologist. Unless it becomes harem, but I doubt that. 

Thank you very muchhhhhh
