I got bored, the novel should not have taken 200+ chapters. It's not even the problem with my stamina when reading novels. It's just that the plot did not need that extra 100 chapters. The push and pull between the leads was exciting to read bit the fact that there's still uncertainty about their feelings even after 150 chapters is annoying. Also side characters are indistinguishable from each other did not help that the translation was edited mtl. It just seems excessive and doesn't really immerse the reader in this novel. For example Tai Sui by priest has about 200 chapters as well but it keeps the reader interested because it has good world and character building and the events that happened can be seperated into arcs that last more than 10 chapters. In this novel every problem gets solved in 5 chapters or less. The main characters don't go through any external hardship which makes it hard for the reader to see their growth. Same thing with ORV (Omniscient Reader Viewpoint) its ard 500 chaps with extras and it keeps the readers engaged and emotionally involved because we experience their hardships and heartbreaks with them. The side characters have their own personalities that aren't 2 dimensional for example in this novel there was a repeat mention of MC friend being super rich and innocent minded which is basically their only character trait. In ORV, MC friend/teammate went through life only following instructions because he thought that was the only thing he was good at but eventually he found someone he fiercely wanted to protect and he started gaining independence with his own thoughts instead of having to be instructed by someone else. The character had tangible morals and goals which were expressed in the novel. In conclusion, this had alot of potential and I can see why there are so many 5 star reviews although I fail to understand why. The idea is great fantastic even its just the execution was dull and deprived of its full potential.
