I'd say this one is pretty good... Well I guess?

The way they fights kinda... just kinda.... getting repetitive and like... at most, there are currently only 3 to 4 skills which the MC is using and e.e okay.....

Oh I love the ML!!!! He is just so lovely aaaa!!!!
I also like MC hehe he is my type anyways... he is different when it is about his Baby and like I really love how he isn't the type of gong who is a manipulative type and not overbearing towards the shou.

Really... more>> incredible novel.

Deserves 5 star no doubt.

Spoiler

what is shocking about the novel is that the cold and arrogant assassin in front of others, decided that he will take the initiative of proposal!!!!!

omg just thing long about that moment I'm already screaming here omg.

Im just currently at chapter 103 right now so he he let's wait and see~

[collapse]

He really is OP but he doesn't abuse it like other MC. <<less

I've finished reading this book many months ago.

At the moment I am writing this review, I don't really remember all the story but I can say that it was really funny, easygoing and interesting.

The description of the battle of the game were well written. It was easy to imagine the background. The different context were interesting because I didn't feel like if there was any repetition even though sometimes I felt that the battle spend too much time for nothing. Actually, I am not a big fan of games so... more>> I was not sure if I would like the novel but you should give it a try. It is so well written that even I don't play a lot could understang the rules and what was happening.

I laughed, I still laugh when I remind some moments...

There was not a lot of characters so I could say sometimes the story felt empty. But the few characters we had, they were well described, and hopefully, because they added some real good moments to the novel.

The MC is so badass! I love him! The ML is so cute and smart! I love him too! Their interactions were so real with a healthy relationship. I am jealous of them ~

Enjoy the book! <<less

I'm giving this novel a solid 4/5 for its hilarious moments and fluff. If you're looking for a light romance with a fantasy setting, you can give it a try. The MC and ML are very cute together.

However, if you look at it from a viewpoint of e-sports then it will definitely fail. There are no systematic explanations about the skills, the points, or the competition itself.

To be more precise, it's a one-man-show of the very OP MC. This is not so bad, but I still fail to see how... more>> other "experts" are still so noob compared to the MC, baring his
Spoiler

thousands of years of experience, dead and alive.

[collapse]

Furthermore, the world setup was quite confusing, to be honest. Is it virtual? Is it the reality? Well, later on they would even mention the
Spoiler

outside world, which takes a lot of your imagination and logic to fill in.

[collapse]

So, in conclusion, if you're very keen on reading novels with logical world-building, just give this one a skip. Too many illogical plot-holes that I can't even count lol. I did finished the entire novel though; a relaxing read. <<less

I personally thought it was a good story. It all depends on you though for whether you'd like it.

Some things you might not like is the repetition since it's basically the same thing happening over and over but I find it fine since it's more so of how he (the MC) handles the game rules and his opponents rather than the typical struggle. Along with the fact that there's no suspense since it's clear that he'll win which is to be expected. You can't really complain about that since ... more>>
Spoiler

he's a master assassin and him losing to some humans (although virtually) is quite s*upid. If he lost than why is he even alive? He has been alive for millenniums in combat for most of his life so it's s*upid is he lost to some humans even if his some of his abilities are locked since he has the experience to back all this up.

[collapse]
But him being OP does make the story kind of bland.

The romance is sweet and I quite like the amount of affection they showed towards eachother. I do find it unusual how the MC came to love the ML so quickly since
Spoiler

he've been alive for so long and has had multiple lovers over the years so I don't think the ML is special. He's just some provocative guy (I feel it's not provocative more so straightforward but for medieval man over there having someone be all over you is proactive) and that's it. Doesn't give much of a reason as to why he likes this guy in particular other than he's "interesting"??

[collapse]
Complaint, the MC doesn't share enough of his life with the ML as well. Actually, neither of them do enough. Wished we learnt more about them tbh. The MC has an interesting life and shows almost none (other than childhood) to the ML.

Anyway, it's a fine story if you're bored and don't got high standards for it. Don't expect in-depth plot or anything. Treat it as reading the newspaper in the morning rather than a book in your bedroom while it's raining outside. Also didn't read it all since my attention span for this story ran out but the ending seems mediocre. 3.7/5 <<less

Actual rating is 3.5

This is not a fantastical novel, nor is it your typical transmigration novel, it can also be barely called an e-sports novel.

I'm not sure if there's even a plotline actually. But it works. Because this novel is actually a lighthearted, feel-good read, packed full of fluff.

Our MC is essentially a milleniums old assasain who finds himself in an intersteller future, in the midest of a VR e-sports competition. He ends up becoming an e-sports competitor by situation, and meets the ML while figuring out how to navigate... more>> this world.

The novel does not go into a lot of world building, or spend much time dwelling on the MC figuring it out. Instead, it quickly jumps into the MC as an e-sports competitor... if you can call him a competitor. The MC a millenniums old, experienced assassin is too OP for other players (whom only ever ran around in stimulated reality) and easily beats them.

Following this pattern, we follow the MC's journey through the PvP e-sports competition, and watch as he romantically progress through a relationship.

And that last paragraph is essentially the entire novel. Plot progression, character building, world exploration, and actual exposition takes up little of the novel. Most of the novel is taken up by the PvP tournaments the MC participates in; which are actually quite fun to read if not repetitive.

Due to the novel being mostly about PvP's the MC dominates in, we dont see any setbacks or hurdles. The MC easily acclimates to the intersteller world without a problem. The MC also doesn't face problems romantically; the ML and MC fall into a consensual and happy relationship without trouble.

Once again, this is a solid feel-good novel. The only discernible plotline, is the MC moving up the ranks in the touraments. There isn't even a proper subplot.

I would not reccomend anyone picking this up for the world building, fantastical and/or e-sport elements the novel's summery sells. You'll be very disappointed else wise.

But if you're just looking for fluff between a cute ML and suave MC. This would be a good pick. <<less

The idea for this is nothing new. Not really. But it is pretty f*cking awesome.

If nothing else, you should read it because it has the best proposal I have ever read in a BL.

“I have lived my whole life without meeting an adversary I couldn’t beat, so I have been rebellious for a lifetime, and there were none in the four oceans who caught my eye. I used to think that all dead and living beings could be fought. If gods or buddhas blocked the way, I could also test... more>> my blade against them. Until there was a battle where I went all out... A formidable enemy stood in front of me, and I was defeated. I’m willing to be bound, led by the neck, and killed without the slightest bit of resistance. If I’m lucky enough to be spared, I will swear loyalty to him. From then on... regardless of whether it’s good or bad, rich or poor, healthy or ill, I will trust, love, treasure, and treat it as precious. It will last forever until death." <<less
