Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

《Devil》 tells the story of Chi You, the protagonist shou, who was killed by someone and cultivated for revenge with the help of Feng Li, the protagonist gong. When Jiang Luo woke up, he transmigrated into the body of the cannon fodder that killed the protagonist shou.

What’s even worse, he transmigrated at the time when the protagonist shou was already killed by the original body.

At the funeral, Jiang Luo was pushed in front of the coffin.

The deceased body of the protagonist shou in front of him was serene, with a smile at the corner of his lips. However, Jiang Luo knew that he had turned into a malicious spirit and was eyeing covetously at him.

The more dangerous it was, the calmer Jiang Luo became. When his desire for survival reached the critical point, he knelt on the ground with a puff, and forced himself to cry.

With his sincere emotion, he said: “Chi You, I love you so much. Please don’t leave me…”

The chilliness around him smothered slightly.

EDIT: Read through Google MTL. Lots of confusing words but if you're familiar enough, it's still more readable. Still, I hope this gets proper HTL.

And YES, it's real good adventure!!! A bit anticlimactic at the end but that's probably because of the MTL. But I still liked it so much! I don't remember any loose ends and all the hints and foreshadowing were done right.

Someone said MC's friends are a burden. This is not true. His friends are weaker than him but they serve as his tethers to his humanity.... more>> Without his friends, he would've eventually become the next ML.

With that said, MC and ML are both toxic people and I love how the author doesn't even bother sugar coating it or launching into a moral-high-grounding type of redemption. They both remain just as they are and yet we see so much character development and emotional progress.

Plot-wise, the world-building was just enough to hold up the story, which is very nice because we are not bogged down by unnecessary details. We are given just enough for imagination, and just enough to move the plot forward. It has really been trimmed down into a lean narrative, without chunks of text explaining this or that.

--1st review--

Giving it 5 stars ahead of time because I can smell a good adventure even from here.

HOWEVER, the edited MTL is so confusing it's not even funny.

Spoiler

It was not unlucky that Jiang Luo and Qi Ye met the spider man that the tournament authorities had failed to spot during their inspection of Hu Bu village, but it was very unlucky.

Jiang Luo, sleepy-eyed, struggled to pull himself together, " Yun Nan Temple? Which temple?"

Ge Zhu said, "The Golden Rash Temple."

Jiang Luo subconsciously looked at Ge Zhu, a former Buddhist son who had turned from Buddhism to Buddhism, and now he was going to a Buddhist monastery, wouldn't Ge Zhu have mixed feelings?

[collapse]

This is just from one small part of one chapter. I have a strong feeling MTL-ing from the raws would be more understandable than that.

With that said, it's a testament to this story that the quality of its essence can survive the bad MTL. <<less

A well-executed enemies-to-lovers plot, although I wished the MC showed his love for the ML more blatantly.

The plot is interesting and the story is well paced. All the major questions were answered, for example why the MC transmigrated.

One of my complaints would be that I found the side characters boring and, at times, frustrating- especially the MC's friends. I found them to be nothing but a burden to the MC and they didn't contribute much to the plot either.

Although I was enraptured by the plot, I wish there was more... more>> tension and horror.
Spoiler

I feel like this novel would have been more memorable if one of the MC's friends actually died. None of them did although they were all quite weak. Only Teng Bi, one of the ML's subordinates, died and was then resurrected.

[collapse]

I feel like this novel was a better execution of Thriller Trainee. Although the storyline is different, I found that there were quite a few similarities. <<less

Honestly I enjoyed it, it was at times climatic and scary, but it feels like MC is just cruising along the novel sometimes.. yes, he's familiar in design/architecture so is quite familiar in feng shui, but for him to quickly reach a level where he rivals the genius ML is a bit of a reach for me. I feel a bit bad that the rest of the characters arent getting that much love.. Other prodigies cannot compare to the MC (aside from the novel's protagonists). I still can't accept him... more>> being able to fluidly write charms off the bat when everyone else found it difficult and only doable after many years of practice.. the favouritism is real.

What I do like about this novel is the uniqueness in having the ML being the novel's protagonist bottom-turned-top. That's hot. The enemies to lovers trope still gets me and I lived for it.

Personal preference (so not going to impact my rating as much) but I just cannot stomach MC having long / longer hair. I wouldn't have made an issue about this if the story just stops mentioning this specific feature every single time.... I was looking forward to him cutting it so the repetition of him having long hair finally stops (yes I'm s*upid for hoping when the cover literally shows him with the long hair) but the ML stopping him, saying he likes it on him makes me a bit squirmy.. When MC had to crossdress, the author made it a point that you couldn't tell he was a man or a woman and I hated that. I wish for these bottoms to not be tied to femininity so much, and having "longer" hair, fair skin being some kind of a requirement.

Going to continue along the journey of finding untypical MCs.. <<less

The summary is already interesting but the real content is more than a simple cannon fodder trying to survive..

And it's ingenious how you change your opinion about the triangle love '' that don't exists by the way'' because the MC actually haven't read the novel until the end and discover with the reader.

The story is rhythmed by the tasks the MC and friends has to accomplish, with the ML interference. Like "hey, don't forget me". And it's a clever way to develop MC and ML hate relationship into something else.... more>> And the main plot takes a 180 degree turnaround about who's the bad guy. It's quite interesting even if the love is slow paced because honestly, only in novels you can love your mu*derer.. <<less

I really love this story, the MC and ML character makes their actions have some kind of logic (no a normal one for sure). With MC it is obvious that he is petty, vengeful, prideful and ML is similarly flawed character (sadistic, psychotic ect.). They are both emotional but don't really feel emotions with depth a healthy human should. You can tell something is not right. It would be tragic if someone else was to be partner of one of them.

Never knew this has been translated, but... God... Finally.

Straight 10 out of 10

ENEMIES to lovers kind (heavy emphasize on enemies). MC and ML truly wish to kill each other.

Some might wonder why MC hates ML so much, but then... You'll understand

... more>>
Spoiler

ML had MC killed 17/18 times, it's no wonder he hates ML to the core (worth to note that each time is torturous as hell

[collapse]

Leads are crazy af

The story pattern is quite visible for each arcs (MC roped into some shady ghostly sh*t - try to solve them - met ML - shady ghostly sh*t turn into complicated shady ghostly sh*t - end) BUT THEY ARE FUN. And the monsters are great.

Romance doesn't start until 50-60 chapter-ish I think... I forgot.

Conclusion: if you expect a floof, lovey dovey story with green flag leads, then this is not for you. <<less

I've completed the story and was happy that I stuck to it.

At the beginning the story was really engaging, but it became a drag to read at some point. Especially so during the chapters that start to 'focus' on the MC. It felt like the other interesting characters kind of got black listed or something at some point. All in all, the story would have been better if the other characters were included more or remained a equal amount of inclusion in the story, like at the beginning chapters, as... more>> the story progressed.

I would have given it a higher score, but the ending gave me mixed feelings.

Spoiler

I was really annoyed that I didn't see Feng Li's ending. He wasn't included much even though he was originally the main ML. He was sort of cut out of the picture by MC, because he disgusted MC and reminded him of his messed up nanny.

Not to mention some of the other characters not getting any ending summary that felt complete. Although, the extra is an extra, I would have liked to see further in the future. I mean MC and ML can live for a long long time, and we only got to see Chi You proposing to MC in the last chapter. (⁠〒⁠﹏⁠〒⁠)


I could have also done without Qi Ye's ending extra. It made me so sad that he was screwed over from beginning to end of the story. On the one hand it's something that might have been perceived as realistic, if not for the fact that he ruins his entire life continuously. Let's be honest, who'd continue to pay a debt that isn't theirs so righteously and s*upidly. I feel like there should have been a end to it at some point and the debt he'd have realised that he needed to pay for, really shouldn't have costed that much more than everything he as the direct family heir held. They were one of the six famous families, I find it hard to believe that the treasures in their house amounted to so little.

I actually had so much expectations for this story and before ch.60 or so it did deliver with what it had promised with premises and tags from horror to badass slash psycho pe*verted MC&ML with pinch of visible s*xual tension to excitement adventures with cool friends and other characters. However I felt like the author could have maintained protagonists ambiguity between them as chapters were so long with each arc.

But... But but unfortunately

  • After chapter 50 or it was 60 I just lost the interest in MC & ML relationship which seemed so flimsy since both protagonists started their forced kissing and at ch.70 papapaaaa under drugs.
  • And typically reaction of MC calling himself s*upid or cursing the ML after knowingly jump into a critical situation prepared by himself.
  • TOO much Gary Tom of a MC only because I actually felt so bad for his friends that appeared so cool and interesting in the first few chapters especially that Wen under woman clothing and Xu with the doll guy. But under MC halo all became dull.
  • And definitely repetitive plots and actions under different scenarios that became a drag for me as I kept reading chapters after chapters just to finish one plot.
I can go on a long rant but unfortunately the story rather made me exhausted instead of feeling of attainment.

3.5/5, but leaning more towards the 4 than 3.

Interesting and comedic read with a fun relationship and development between the MC and ML.

Honestly, not so much on the plot for me, the development of the relationship between the MC and ML is what kept me going.

A good read for me because I can read chinese raws. Seen a few reviews w/ regards to the translation. Honestly would recommend just saving this to your plan to read list and waiting for a better translator, cause a translation can really determine the... more>> enjoyment of the novel. <<less

The translation after the first few chapters becomes more like mtl.

It is the enemies-to-lovers-trope.

Both reasons that usually make me dislike a story.

But this one was just too amazing. The relationship develops so fascinating. The characters are so fleshed out (I cried for a side character). It has everything. Seriously, loved it, plz give it a chance.

This is so gold, and so ffffing slow burn, everything about this novel is perfect except the translation :'', I would like to suggest for re-translation, although you still can understand many important thing but sometimes it's so confusing, and for someone who like spicy novel this one is lv 2, they don't do too explicit and you can still imagine it, the gore part more explicit, and they had many dark backstory

You want to read a story where both MC and ML are yanderes and mutually torture each other, have a sadistic love, and fluffy in a bloody way, chapters that kept you wanting to read for the next and the next? This is the story for you!

Summary: MC was an interior designer with good fengshui knowledge. One day he found himself transmigrated into a book he read. Staring at a dead man's body inside of a coffin, ML. Someone began accusing MC of mu*dering ML who was in the coffin.... more>> Knowing ML's now an evil spirit and will haunt him, he started claiming that he was ML's lover! So that the living people who hated him, for thinking he had killed the ML would protect him. Both MC and ML shared a very bloody back and forth intense game of cat and mouse until chapter 50ish where ML started to feel feelings, not that he knows it's feelings he feels. Then the bloody game between MC and ML turned into a, still bloody, game of tense tempting "come to the evil side", which later on morphed into a sadistic yandere ML chasing his wife game. With a side dish plot of discovering the ML's curse and why he was cursed.

The author actually laid out the important bits early into the story, that would be of importance on the later parts of the story. But there were also some plot holes and some details in the story that goes against the setting that's been established, not that it was too big of a deal, at least for me personally.

Spoiler

Example: The MC earring which led him to go inside or see into other's soul, if someone were to touch it. Because early on MC's soul was tied to his body with a chain, that's supposedly would prevent the MC soul from being controlled, leave the body, or tampered with. This earring contradicts with the chains function, and MC isn't supposed to be able to use the earring.

[collapse]

There's also some details that the author didn't take the time to fully expand and explain, which I think will left some people wondering. But I think the author wanted us to imagine that part and think about it on our own (/□＼*). <<less

It’s a really good novel!!!

The schemes between MC and ML is just so thrilling and this is a really unique novel in the sense that MC and ML really hated each other in the beginning.

Especially seen as ... more>>
Spoiler

ML killed MC 18 times

[collapse]

I love how their relationship really developed. From enemies to lovers wasn’t an easy journey because they really really wanted to over power and kill the other lol

I really wanted to read this novel when I first ready the synopsis but I was hesitant because another review said that the translation was kinda confusing. After months, I gave it a try and yes, there are parts of the translation that’s kinda confusing
Spoiler

because at times it’s more like reading MTL so you can’t really feel the emotions of the characters well

[collapse]
but still, it’s understandable and doesn’t really affect how scheming the ML and MC are haha

I just love both of their characters ♥️ plus the supporting characters here are really good too and the plot!! <<less

Two psychopath in a love and hate relationship (~￣³￣) ~. The story isn't scary but it's within the scope of the story.

MC and ML are both good. Even the side characters are well written. I wish I can read more novels like this one. Destiny, please guide me~ (≧▽≦)

A unique kind of bl romance. I love the slow burn and the ML & mc's unique way of how they developed their relationship. Really stands true to enemies to lovers tag, so if you want a fluffy and easy going romance this probably isn't it, but I would recommend you to try this novel out still for a new kind of taste.

Best mc evehhr!!

Personally, I hate dense mcs and those who throw suspicions at the back of their minds then regret it later for disregarding it.

This MC is not the above description.

... more>> He takes all information as important and with meaning so it makes it easier for him to deduce things. This avoids the plot to run in circles just coz of misunderstandings (and I hate misunderstanding tropes so much I cringe 🙄)

So far til c152 everything is still in place and the characters are well-maintained.

I'll complete this review after the ending whether it satisfies my itch or nah (subjectively)

warning! No dog food here

edit: (finished reading and I'm back)

Plot hole? Non existent.

Cliche? None.

Dog Food? Ughh T.T the author must be on a diet.

The only thing I regret is that I never found this novel early.

If I did, my heart would have had the smell of roses earlier on.
