Description

After his death, Hang Qing got a system that allowed him to release the halo of Gary Stu (aka. Mary Sue) and conquer the villain in every world.

You have an unparalleled appearance, a charming body, and an irresistible voice. Is conquering a villain that difficult?

But I’m a f*cking man.

It doesn’t matter if you get bent a little, you’ll get used to it.

The MC is so f'ing annoying. It makes no sense that everytime the ML and the protagonist are in the same vicinity, he keeps thinking that the ML is super in love with him. It makes no sense. He sees the ML's favorability towards him and he still acts so s*upid. Also he kept involving himself with the protagonist for no reason. If he would have stayed away from the protag in the first place, and only focused on keeping the ML's attention a lot of misunderstandings could have been... more>> avoided.

I hate s*upid protagonists that don't know how to mind their own business. <<less

This novel is really interesting.

If you've read "It's Actually Not Easy Wanting To Be A Supporting Male Lead", then you will definitely LOVE this novel. I was absolutely thrilled when I found this because I wanted to find more novels similar to IANEWTBSML. Although, not the same in every aspect; for example, the ML is the villain that the MC must conquer for his missions. But enough about that, let's focus on this novel:

Our MC was a straight man (not for long) who was killed in a car accident... more>> and his soul binds to a system. In order to return, he must get the favorability (love) of the villain and stop him from interfering between the love of the protagonists. And like the summary says, our MC receives a halo to help him in his missions.

Spoiler

but his charm was too great and undoubtedly attracts the attention (and love) of not only the villain but also the protagonists of each world he goes into (heck, even the little cannon fodders)

[collapse]

Spoiler

This is NOT a harem. MC only focuses on the ML

[collapse]

It was somewhat difficult for me to completely grasp the character of the MC, he integrated into his cannon fodder persona really well but I DO like him. He's very quick-minded, smart and willing to take risks. MC doesn't care much about other things except for his mission so

Spoiler

when the plot derails itself from its tracks, MC is able to pick himself up pretty fast lol.

[collapse]

But before you start, I'd like to give a heads up about the first arc. It's not my favorite and thankfully its the ONLY one like that. The rest of the arcs are completely fine for me. Overall, there are 7 arcs in total, not all of them are listed on the summary.

Spoiler

the first arc contains r*pe, if you are uncomfortable with it then please skip to the second.

[collapse]

I love this story and will follow this translation. Do check this novel out, the arcs are interesting and it's an enjoyable read. You won't have to worry about mindless characters who cause unnecessary trouble *roll eyes*. Giving this a 5 star <<less

The MC is supposed to seduce the villain so the protagonist and FL can get together. The problem is that he accidentally steals the FLs aura. So everyone falls for him, the villain, protagonist, FL, CF. Everyone. And he's oblivious to it all. At the end of every arc we get a chapter from the villains POV which is a nice plus.

Although there are different arcs with their unique essence, it's still a sudden and rushed ending.

There are moral, ethical, disturbing and disordered flaws in each arc practically...

... more>>
Spoiler

Arc 1 - Swimming - r*pe

Arc 2 - Pop Star - Lowkey Imprisonment

Arc 3 - Abnormal Boss - Self-immolation

Arc 4 - Aplha - Gender Discrimination (towards Omega)

Arc 5 - Ghost - Perversion

Arc 6 - Ger - in*est

Arc 7 - Student - Cognitive Gender Disorder

[collapse]

The ML is definitely twisted. What's with the response to MC's "I like the villains a little.." as taking him back into real world and telling he manipulated this all... And then the novel ends.

Although there are some arcs which can be appreciated such as Abnormal Boss (for an interesting mu*der theme) and Ghost (for an interesting clues-discovering trope to uncover the ghost castle's secrets).

Practically as soon as the MC enters the world, all protags and villains just fall in love with him except a few sensible ones... such as the girl protag in Ghost arc.

All-in-all, it may contain some unhealthy elements and you are at your own to read this one... <<less

warning ⚠ may contain spoilers!

im not going to rate this novel because frankly I dont have the right to. I didnt check on the tabs and thus failed to notice the r*pe and confinement tag.

But ill say this once-this kind of story if written well can be regarded as a good read, where the readers learn to love and hate the ML and may even pity him making excuses for his abnormal/immoral behavior. Unfortunately for this one it hasn't been executed very well. Cant tell whether its the translations or... more>> just the original.

There is no explanation towards why the MC is able to change how the original villains and protags even side-characters fall for him. Its almost instantaneous that its hard to swallow.... The first arc was really bad, fast paced even for a QT not to mention how a lot of info on MC and ML even other important characters is so vague. but usually in QT novels the first arc is always dissatisfactory so I try to go on for 2-3 arcs and they do improve.

In the second arc the situation is pretty much the same a mentally unstable ML, r*pe, death. In this arc the flaw of the MC was revealed even more clearly. Its one thing to play with the villains (ML) feelings but to purposely keep provoking a madman..... sigh... There was severe lack of communication and the ML lacked security while being compared to another man constantly not to mention the MC's actions towards 'another man' causing the ML to misunderstand over and over. Not saying the ML is right but not the best approach to take for dealing with characters who he was told from the very beginning were 'villains' and he even knew their actions in the original books.

it was also very disappointing to see how bad the MC did for his first mission that was supposed to be a beginners/low-level mission.

edit: I just saw a comment saying that this has potential to be a cheap smut- ik it was supposed to be a jab at the novel but honestly there is no part, at least in the two arcs, that can qualify for it to even be called a smut. in the first arc the ML just pulls MC out of the water and does him without consent. It would have been a bit better if we at least get to know what the MC's feelings towards the guy is-but no, so the act seems even more detestable since the ML literally didn't even give two-shits bout him later until.... yada yada yada.... in the 2nd arc it gets worse since the ML takes the MC forcefully while he is in the hospital a treats him roughly without preparation and tears into the MC (you should know what I'm implying) and again with the being confined. people should know the dangers of caging a sick person and the result it has on both mental and physical health. <<less

The plot is ridiculous, no character is genuinely explored and the villain has no redeeming qualities other than his face. I feel like the author is just trying to be edgy by writing this...

The first problem I had with it is that you really don't get to know the MC's thoughts and feelings throughout. At least, not in the first arc - which is when I stopped reading.

Second problem is that a HUGE portion of the novel is just 'omg look at the MC's perfect waistline' or 'wow look at... more>> MC's firm muscles'. And everybody falls in love instantly because oh lord MC is just too hot, it's ridiculous.

THIRD problem is that the character's genuinely could not be any more unrealistic, I have no problems with the yandere character troupe but good lord let there be some explanation for it... like idk some backstory? Or just elaborating on the ML's feelings?

All I've seen from this novel so far is a bunch of people jerking themselves off to the MC, I gave this two stars simply because it could have potential - as a cheap smut novel. As a compelling, character-driven story? Haha. No way. Literally just relies on shock factors to keep you invested.

If you want two-dimensional characters and poorly executed stereotypes, this might just be the novel for you. Just don't expect plot that actually makes sense, <<less

you don't read a story with yandere in the tag and expect sunshine and fluffy kittens and upright moral characters. The tag is there for a reason.... more>>
Spoiler

the mc's main targets are all the big bad BOSS of each world and you can't really expect the villain to be morally correct. Though at least in this one his goal is to make them like him rather than make them regret past actions

[collapse]

in terms of yandere QW, I'd rate this one mild-moderate, depending on the story, since it's lacking in many of the painful details and visceral impact that some of the others have (I've read a few that left me feeling gut-punched at the end). The MC himself never seems to be traumatized by his experiences, even when the ML is at his most crazy, and that gives the whole story a layer of disconnect. The first world was probably the worst and it gets less insane with each world.

there were two things I didn't like, the first being the one chapter abrupt ending. The second was the fact that everyone and their dad fell in love with the MC in every world, and in each world he is completely surprised and unprepared for it. You would think, by the fourth world, he would have realized the pattern. It got irritating after a while. My actual score is 3.5 <<less

This was boring. Like where's the praise should be coming from?

Like lazy world-building, they are empty as the storylines. Lazy character-building. Are you praising it because the ending of each arc where MC had to leave made you a little sappy?

First thing that tried to irk me was the fact that MC was originally a straight guy. I saw no reason or no sense in it at all, but whatever.

I don't mind that the worlds were obviously like barren lands - empty. The description of events that happened on the... more>> background took like one passage, the rest of it was talking and walking. It was so uneventful, like I've seen stuff, I know that some stories manage to do with just 20 chapters, but here I felt like I'm looking at stagnant water (which is soothing, but in reading is quite boring, you know what I mean), sometimes I got bored at those descriptions how - oh, I need to woo the villain, he's right here, but I'm sleepy so sleep. It was funny to see how much sleep was mentioned. And not rolling in the sheets, nope, just sleeping. That's like randomest shit.

The lack of thrill was also because MC could do nothing and it attracted people. Like give you water, smile at you and you're already overthinking that MC must definitely love you to death. That type of delusion. There was really not enough power in MC for me to like him, yes he had pretty human sides to his character, but I always felt lackluster. Sometimes it was like a hard knock on the head the lack of MC's IQ, for example he gets notification how villain's favorability added up, but next thing when he, protag and villain are in the same room, he thinks villain is attracted by the protag. HELLO. Can anyone hear me in this empty head? No? Thought so. Basically the way of misunderstanding of villain's attitude was s*upid af. I really don't like oblivious MCs who are just blind to their surroundings, but basically it is author's convenience to create "tension".

Now, onto toxicity of MLs. ML is unreasonably jealous of everyone. I don't see the need, this just makes him look extreme, selfish and not caring about their partner. At times you can see that he suffers from the same lazy writing that MC suffers from, misunderstanding and overthinking your own shit, except judging your surroundings. Sometimes when he finally gets to the point of 100% it's basically his own reasoning of his own feelings, but not really MC doing anything. Doesn't mean MC should have always done something, but it sounded silly how MC has no idea why there is no progress, he does nothing, ML also may not to anything, but them blam, progress is filled. I have this feeling like both MC and ML suffered from this lazy attempt of author to make them at least decent characters.

In the end I was bored AF, I couldn't feel anything from the worlds, from the characters, from their "relationship". Author, I hope you get better, if you like writing, that's my silent wishing well. <<less

Arc 1: contains non-con, and yanderes (but like, the ML is the plot villain in all arcs I think) readers be advised: ... more>>
Spoiler

MC Hang Qing having fun swimming before the official plot starts, catches the attention of both the original!ML and original!Villain so later on he tries to divert their attention by flirting with the cannon fodder unfortunately for MC all three men go yandere lol. Crazy Moonlight did an awesome job translating! Lots of kidnapping = so exciting

[collapse]

Arc 2: Musician arc, so far my 2nd favorite & I liked the original!protagonist > original!Villain tbh but too bad he's not the system target
Spoiler

I got more excited over MC meeting the original!protagonist music king Song Yan/Ye all the time. Like, MC and villain Jiang had an exciting meet-cute, but like, MC & protag Song are actually cute together (either as shou best friends or a potential ship, even the fans ship them!). I'm just going to fan over my ship in this spoiler section:

    • Protagonist Song never treated MC coldly from the start
    • Music King Song is in disguised (masks + hat) and at a cake shop for some reason. MC walks in to enjoy a chocolate cake (he usually follows the original body's strict diet to take care of his vocal chords, but he decides to treat himself). So while MC is happily eating, King Song joins him at his table and they basically have dessert together (so sweet). Then, when they go up to pay the protagonist forgot his wallet so MC covers for him and it's off to the start of a great friendship
    • Music King is the first guy to recognize MC's voice when MC was singing in a mask on this show they're both on.
    • Later on, it's Music King who defends MC from bullies (where the is villain ML?). He's totally the second male lead, the second male lead syndrome too strong
    • So they bump into each other somewhere and decide to go eat at this restaurant they both like. They find out they have similar tastes/strict singer diet to protect their vocal chords. I honestly think protagonist and original host would have been a good match (since the original host Han Yun took good care of himself and was originally talented anyways). Song pays back money to MC and the gongs misunderstand
    • Both gongs (Jiang Moyoung and Cheng Zhou) have tacit understanding (they're both possessive and worry that their partners will hook up) so they both call their subordinates to call their partners to separate them before they can eat together LMAO I can't believe they can't even recognize or respect their shous' friendship but they're yandere so whatever
    • Music King also supports MC on Weibo, which is why his fans ship them because usually original protagonist is neutral (no endors**ents, scandals, private etc)
    • He also goes over to MC's place to cook. (So when villain does this later on, I didn't find it as romantic LOL)
    • So MC goes with his mom to meet her friends and runs into protag Song who is a student of one of the mom's friends (small world!). Later on, the mom misunderstands and approves of Song for her son lol
    • MC is invited to Song's party and plays an erhu that the protag bought for him (cuz they're friends). They go out into the protagonist's garden and Song tells him "I like you" & "I broke up with Cheng Zhou" meanwhile MC sees the villain Jiang, points to him and says "I like him" (for his mission's sake) so things get awkward LOL
    • They sing a duet at MC's concert
    • MC saves a fan by pushing protagonist Song against her, but he misunderstands as MC saving him from a bullet LOLOL
    • I think MC & protagonist should have made it clear they were just friends, because the gongs were so insecure. Protagonist Song and original ML argued a lot which made the protagonist like MC more and the villain was also always jealous and kept trying to separate them (he wouldn't even let MC chat on the phone with protag who is his only friend in that world... so unreasonable! As much as I like yanderes, I got annoyed with the villain which is why I liked the protagonist more)
      [collapse]
Arc 3 & 4 are ok

FAVORITE ARC - 5th villain: Ghost in the Castle (fifth arc!)

- I won't spoil this, it's worth the read!
Spoiler

pretty cute & mysterious ghost boy in a nightgown (scared of ghosts lol) protects teenagers from the castle's malice, however as the control over the castle shifts to the true blood heir, the truth of the Rose Castle comes out. Also, MC starting to see similarities between his MLs, but hasn't made the connection yet...

[collapse]

Arc 6: Queen Mother (MC plays little White Lotus)
Spoiler

political intrigue, ML showing masochistic tendencies (his favorability rises with slaps and kicks), MC starts suspecting ML is the same in every world. It gets even more exciting when MC gets kidnapped, & there are a plot twists. MC is wondering what's wrong with the system for the nth time. On top of that, the original host's good friend who passed away, Jiang Rong, is misunderstood as MC's White Moonlight by all the men LOL. It was a pretty well-written arc

[collapse]

Arc 7: MC is a high school boy with non-mainstream tastes (edgy art, poetry and music) and cross-dresses in cute clothes (which is why he's bullied at first)
Spoiler
  • short arc, but it's also a high-school romance so the dates were pretty cute (like exchanging love tokens: MC gives villain!ML a painting & so villain!ML gives him a watch aww).
  • It's also funny since there's so many "ambush in an alley" scenes to introduce the next character or speed the plot along LOL
  • MC also opens up to the protagonist!shou about the original host's traumatic childhood so that instead of falling in love, protagonist!shou would adopt a more protective and parental attitude.
  • MC's original host cross-dresses to distress & relieve anxiety and I really appreciate that the MC respects his original host by keeping in character and cross-dressing
    • In this arc's modern world where there's stigma against homosexuality & the original host was bullied due to wearing feminine clothing, I'm disappointed that his friend (protag shou) labelled his behavior as "gender cognitive disorder" and it was really sad when MC original host's grandmother broke down crying thinking it's her fault thinking she went wrong raising the original host (although she doesn't fuss when MC comes home dressed like a girl).
    • At least the boys and grandma accept MC after their initial shocks (MC even scores double the affection points with the villain lol)
  • there's making out and touching between MC & his ML (which compensates for the PG in the previous arc LOL)
    [collapse]
Real world: last chapter
Spoiler

the last chapter is easy to read on MTL and also explains the origin of the system and why MC was chosen (ML explaining himself is hilarious LOL).

[collapse]

Overall, MC has a calm personality and ML is yandere. If I were to rank the arcs:

Ghost in the Castle (favourite) > Cold Singer Pop Star > Little Bullied Student > King of Swimming > Arc 3 & 4 <<less

This was interesting in a way, each arc was sometimes predictable and some weren't, my favorite arc was probably the ghost trapped in the castle... pft, a ghost being scared of other ghosts...?

It's not particularly unique in the world-hop system type novels but it's a nice read since it's also pretty short with only 7 arcs.... it kinda wrapped up really fast at the reality-end tho, I feel it was kinda abrupt too but oh well.

I’m too lazy to leave reviews but I had such a hard time to find this novel again that I may as well just do it. Don’t hope for a good main plot, and there’s not much point in reading all the arcs, there’s not a big interconnection between them. The system is just a decoration and I don’t like the reason of the transmigration. I also hate the ML in the original world.

Even with that I gave 5 stars because if I read each arc as a short story... more>> they are good. With more details each arc could be an amazing independent story. Some are dark and ML is the villain so there’s no point in finding redeeming qualities for the ML, and for me it’s not a HE. But there are good plot ideas that I like. Also I don’t like the main plot (last chapter) but it’s the reason the MC has a protagonist halo.

Spoiler

The worlds are artificially created by ML to force the MC to love himself so everyone in those worlds just love the MC because of the ML influence. It seems really toxic that MC just accepted everything and gave an opportunity to ML. He spent three years in a hospital because of the ML system and yet he wasn’t even angry. And ML just let him out of the system because MC was already in love with him.

[collapse]

An easy story to read, but you should consider the warnings of r*pe. There’s a lot of no moral things and abduction. Like I said ML is the villain, he won’t become a good citizen just for the MC. Not in the first arc and not in the lat chapter.

I love arc 4. I find it as a good and maybe novel aspect in omegaverse worlds.

Spoiler

Firs MC is alpha but it’s the shou. So yeah, gay omegaverse alpha x alpha wich for me makes kind of more sense for a bl. No mpreg. MC is a double spy but both empires have the same target: ruin ML (the villain) family and kill him. So they send MC to seduce all the family. Sure, MC doesn’t really make the effort and everyone just fall in love with him but it’s nice to find a really easy going seductive MC. And it’s the only HE.

There’s some omega discrimination but for me that’s the default in omegaverse, and that’s why I like omegaverse with this kind of plot that’s not centered on fragile omegas and pregnancy, I don’t read bl for that. ML is a big general that takes the decision of conquering both empires so MC can be free of his spying work. And it’s the only world where ML and MC spend their lives together.

[collapse]

Arc 5 is really interesting and sad. Not my favorite just because I read a lot of horror and survival bl and there are better ones but it’s one of the best plots in the novel.

Spoiler

MC was abducted by his teacher lover and kept in his castle and after she got mad the three died, leaving a curse in the castle. MC starts as a ghost that helps the protagonist group of four to survive the hunted castle. Two of the group are the protagonists couple, one is the ML which is actually the only legal son of the owner of the castle and the las one is the bastard daughter of the owner. After thinking they have cleared the castle ML wanted to take away MC but MC soul dispersed after leaving the castle, he knew it but said nothing because it was the only way to remove the curse.

[collapse]

Arc 6 is the usual imperial palace harem drama, but it has good plot twists. I’m too lazy to make a big good spoiler but as the hardest MTL arc I wouls try with a short one.

Spoiler

MC is the Quee mother but the emperor is not his son, he has one divorce before going into the harem and is sterile. ML is a general with militar power but bad reputation, and wants to marry the Queen mother after noticing he is not the waste everyone thinks. The emperor, his older brother and the ML all want to get the MC but before that the first emperor return (Queen mother’s husband) and makes chaos. Finally ML kill him and tried to abduct rhe MC but he dies.

[collapse]

Arc 7 is sweet but a little boring, probably the only ML villain that is good. Like there’s no time for him to show his low moral.

Arc 1 is not bad I just find it boring, but I don’t like sports plots.

Spoiler

ML abducts and r*pe MC. Then the protagonist gong also abduct him. ML really loves MC just, well he is the villain so he has no idea of how to act. After clearing things MC and ML starts a relationship and everything is going well until a car accident, ML can’t swim so MC saves him and then dies, too tired to continue swimming.

[collapse]

Arc 2 is the normal storyline in the showbiz.

Spoiler

MC is a great musician that doesn’t use his family background so he is neglected by his agent. He climbed the big boss tight (ML) saying he Is in love with him. There’s a lot of drama and I can’t remember how it ended, but I’m sure MC dies.

[collapse]

Arc 3 may be the darkest, I didn’t read it again because Ifind it a little boring but it’s nots bad, just not my taste. <<less

Contains a lot of trigger warnings

like r//p//, imprisonment, B//D//S//M//, death.

[collapse]

Don't expect a sweet ML since the ML will always be an evil, psycho villain.

Also, the MC was a bit crazy (?), just accepting whatever since he's afraid of death. Though he may not really have the right to choose another path, but he was just like yeah, the ML can force me since he is the target. Its lowkey annoying to be that way.

And also, the rest were MTLed so it makes it more annoying😂

My favorite arc would be the second one, and the entire novel is fast paced. Keep in mind the ML is possessive and not right in the head (classic yandere)

Unfortunately, the novel is not deserving of all its praise. It's bland, the characters are flat, everyone falls in love with the MC for no reason

... more>>
Spoiler

In the first arc the ML fell to the point of obsession and locking the MC up by watching him swim

[collapse]

There is no reason for the love. The ML is a yandere. While I am fine with yanderes it must be done correctly. The only explanation is "he's the villian so it must be like this"

Spoiler

Also the book casually mentions the MC was r*ped by the ML and treat it as something insignificant. Even the MC seems unaffected by it.

[collapse]

While the book stays true to the title and follows traditional meet cutes and all of that, I find that the book has no substance. Overall, I would not recommend this book unless you are fine with plot holes, bad romance, flat characters, and have nothing better to do. <<less

So far so good. It stays true to its title with all its tropes and cliches. Oblivious MC that everyone unknowingly falls in love with and a possessive ML. It's quite fast paced too which is a plus for me.

The translator's doing a great job too (another plus).

So, if you're looking for a novel to read from time to time and wouldn't want to emotionally invest in, I think this is the one for you ~

Well, I don't know what I was expecting.

Hang Qing got transmigrated into a "capture the villain" system. He's a straight man, or so he says, because he's completely aware of his insanely beautiful looks using it to seduce the villain. It might be intentional or it might be unintentional in some scenes. He acts like he's smart and collected and then in the next scene he's a blubbering naive idiot. He's all over the place, but "straight" is never in his DNA.

Su Rui (Female lead) and Mu Ze (Male lead)... more>> is head over heels. Especially the ML, he knew our MC for one second and he's already licking the water that MC kicked, like it was his bathwater. Fun.

Oh dear villain... The villain is f*cked up. Well, everyone falls in love with MC because of his "stolen halo" but the villain is even more f*cked up than the rest. His name is Gu Xingduan and he's a yandere bastard.

Spoiler

He wants to monopolize MC and jacks off to the sight of him swimming. Always h**ny and angry with control issues. Which I could tolerate, the love interest has to be more yandere than the rest, especially if our MC gets this Mary Sue treatment, I could understand that.

But what I don't get is our MC's s*upidity.

I didn't know that once you get a Mary Sue halo, videos of you changing will be leaked to the internet, passing the test for THE OLYMPICS single handedly, and getting brutally r*ped by the villain.

Yes, that r*pe part is what made me drop this novel. Yikes...

Overall, not fun. Might get better, but if I have to read another flowery sentence, I would rather bash my head against the wall. <<less
