The Real Young Master Became Popular After His Rebirth Chapter 26 Discussion

I had high hopes for the novel mainly because of the unique premise but it was really so disappointing.

There are only 4 chapters translated at the time I'm writing this review so I read the mtl which was pretty easy to understand, I'm mentioning this because I know that MTL isn't really an accurate way to judge the writing but it really is too awful. It can't be saved by the argument "it's just bad translation". Let me explain further, this feels like someone's first time attempting to write, there is no such thing as subtlety, everything has to be spelled out more than once, for example: MC does something, the dialogue explicitly explains what he's doing, then he explains it again to the system while also explaining why and how he did it as if we can't read and understand. Everyone is explaining what they feel in the dialogue or their inner monologue. The author also wanted to imitate that thing in modern danmei where they get to write whatever they want disguised as netizen comments (for example oh I know these two are a cp, or just being fangirls) but in this non celebrity context (at least at first) it made no sense. They'd be at a company, where the ML is the CEO but the employees are bold enough to act like netizens talking loudly and no one says anything. Anyway all of this was okay, I was constantly midly annoyed but I powered through it and wanted to see where it was heading.

My last straw however was when the plot started making no sense in my opinion. I can tolerate anything but once even the plot starts getting weird I'm out

Basically even though MC finished doing missions in the system world, he still has the system with him, which was weird but I ignored it. But when the system randomly started giving missions again (sleep in the same bed as ML in 24hours or die) it was like a switch flipped and I was instantly turned off. Yes I suspected that the ML might be controlling the system but to issue missions to MC after he "won" and got his wish, all as a cheap tool to make the main couple get together, so that MC would take the initiative, it was so unbearable to read tbh.

Maybe it's because I read a lot of novels in this specific genre, with these specific tropes, It all feels like a very bad imitation. I just wanted to leave my review since there aren't any and possibly save future readers.
