‘I must have been out of my mind. Why did I go and achieve something like the world’s first clear of the enemy enhancement mod?’
That’s right, what kind of world was it these days?
If it were a case of being possessed into a novel that one had followed through to the end alone, or an author being possessed by the only reader who had followed their work to the end, it could at least be considered to have some backbone.
These days, it was a world where you could get possessed into a novel you hadn’t read, a novel you had only skimmed through, even if you didn’t leave a comment, just by looking at the cover, by filtering out works, by criticizing a novel, by criticizing an author, and even after being dragged away once and returning, a truly unparalleled treacherous world.
In such a world, being a hardcore player with 30, 000 hours of playtime? I was the perfect prey to be eyed by some terrifying entities desperate to achieve results as humans.
[collapse]This is one of those kinds of novels that is going to be really polarizing and maybe even considered controversial. In terms of literature, it's wishfulfillment slop. There doesnt seem to be any real deeper themes or meaning in this story. But man... it's really well written slop. The author knows his stuff. And he does a good job explaining, describing, and rationalizing things so they all mesh together and feel coherent. The translation is excellent, the editing is flawless, and the story provides exactly what it's claiming to sell.
