Description

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

“The son of god Gula has returned.”

I was lost in the world of gambling.

I turned my back on my family and even betrayed my lover.

I wasted every day of my life.

It was a life of tr*sh.

The reality told me thus:

That I would amount to nothing no matter what I did.

In order to change my pathetic life, I chose fantasy, instead.

Even then, it was the same story.

I wondered if salvation would come at the end of the long road.

But, I was forced to kneel down in defeat in front of a powerful entity.

The tower I built up with my own hands crumbled into nothingness.

Just for once, I dearly wished to know the truth about myself.

“Come closer, my child…”

I will not hold back this time.

MC has to explore everything on his own as he does not get all the future memories. He is one of the most human MC I have seen. I liked the other characters too and the story progression is very evident. I find it enjoyable to read, I hope you will like it too. Happy reading!

One of the best story of "isekai" genre I read, well it's true that the MC is acting like a virg*n when it comes to women, but the story are great, the pacing aren't too slow or too fast, worldbuilding is decent, character development is excellent, side character development excellent too, it's like you can connect with every character in the story. Don't worry about people critiques, if you are like seinen story, then this is for you. I never regretted even once I started reading this novel.

Absolutely worth the read, even if you're not the 'isekai' type (Though, this isn't really a traditional Truck-kun isekai)

The largest draw of this novel is definitely its character development, as the MC goes from "an addict, a loser, a despicable human being" to someone you actively cheer for and want to see prosper.

Supporting cast is great, and you'll find yourself cheering for them too as they too develop.
Spoiler

If you're off-put by the Harem tag, don't worry. While the MC is still stereotypically dense, girls aren't throwing themselves at his feet on sight. Relationships are established, and slowly develop, instead of going from 0-100 instantly.

[collapse]

So far while reading, I never felt like I've had to trudge through bad arcs as all of them have been bangers.

Second Coming deserves all the singing praise and more

It is a good story. No, scratch that. This is an amazing story!!

The fantasy and reality is divided and presented greatly. But sadly the concept isn't solid enough?. As a world of paradise it is too small, no higher world or another planet at all. But the worst is author cannot create a goo coincidence for an event to happen. It make almost every event and encounter for MC seems forced and not realistic. But worse is the aura of main character in tthe MC too bright that make the... more>> plot armor become so visible? <<less

The novel is best when it's a power leveling novel, but every now and then there's a strange tension that rears its head. The moments at its most light and most dark are far too apart that it really does feel like two different novels.

It starts off with a VERY typical Korean Toturial, a trope I hope really dies soon. As long as this trope exists, Koreans are all aliens to me. I don't know why they're so fascinated by this dark shit.

Quickly picks up with the training montage tho... more>> and it was hard to drop at that point.

Fast forward to the current arc with what I feel is very misplaced dark sh*t and gore again. I can tolerate plot armor, but I wish the author was at least consistent with it and not take it away just to have an unwanted shock value.

Overall I'd rate it close to 4 and just estimate it to that. There's just something about the korean narrative style that I don't like. Living in a very urban place really does something to its populace, huh. <<less

It's excellent, especially after the touch-ups it got with the new licensed translation. We open with a character who can initially be quite hard to like, but his outlook takes a steep upwards trajectory within the first four or five chapters and never really stops. The action is good, the character moments are impeccable, and the narrative has a lot of twists and interweaving moments I genuinely didn't expect. A+ work.

It's fun and easy-ish to read.

Good character development for both MC, romance targets and supporting cast.

Well executed power system. Fights feel as if they do actually have stakes, MC constantly pushes himself to brink of destruction, and the enemies are not disappointing either.

Tropes are played sometimes straight, sometimes for comedy, and sometimes are a subversion.

Romance is fine. MC gets all the beauties in the end, but the road to his happy ending is well deserved.

4.5. Very funny, good character development, smooth plot development. MC is a little too OP but it's fine. Would strongly recommend if you're getting into webnovels.

Action scenes are fire! It's a great novel, but I wouldn't say it's my all-time favorite. The females around the MC are.. Questionable in behavior tbh. So this is a good book when I ignore that (and the side stories, so I've heard.)

I enjoyed this novel quite a bit. Seol is a really relatable MC, and the struggles that he goes through with his family are definitely the highlights of this novel. But, the action scenes are well depicted as well, I like how most of the novel is Seol learning from other characters (mostly older ones with more experience) and growing as a person, and that is a reflection to his growth in Paridise power level wise.
Spoiler

If I could critique one thing it's that the harem that develops near the end (while hinted at often throughout the novel) was unsatisfying, Teresa raping Seol was gross, and Yuhui acknowledging the r*pe and then doing nothing was gross as well. I also don't like the idea that Seol was always bound to his fate, that was established in the ending side stories, it undercut the entire novels message that Seol was defying his addictions and previous life's mistakes with the help of the people around him.

Addicting story. It's been a while since i've read this so I forgot the details but I remember just staying up because I was so immersed on reading this.

The side stories ruined it for me though. Honestly would recommend for people who plans to read this to stop and just end it at the epilogue

Spoiler

it was honestly a perfect ending with the MC marrying one woman. I didn't know author was into polygamy so I was pretty disappointed at those side stories

my native language is not english and I used translation while writing this so it may be a review with semantic errors. / There may be small spoilers in between. I didn't spoiler tag the whole article because I think they are really small, it's up to you whether you read them or not.

If it wasn't for the bullsh*t in the last 100 episodes, my rating would be something like 4, but now I can only give a rating of around 3.

What I will write below is the part excluding... more>> the last 100 chapters. (Actually, I don't want to take those parts seriously, so I want to ask the author WHY? Does a person not like the book he/she wrote that much and ruin it? I'm really sorry for his work instead of him/her 💀)

actually, the progression of the story and the world it created was beautiful and the main character really took the world he went to very seriously and worked hard that even though there were some feelings from a past life, he had no definite memories and although he actually had a power, he wasn't that op. But I just found the real life background of the main character a bit shallow. He just did it in the world and it seemed like that, I don't underestimate his gambling addiction but I don't know, his relationship with his family or something didn't seem very interesting to me. Also, it's very normal that they don't like him so he really made his family suffer and the main character was very discouraged about it and always avoided confronting his family.

If I'm talking about the world, things like it's a different dimension and you can't talk in real life can be said to be interesting, and things like people from the world are actually not very ambitious to fight. And have fun in their interests, I think was realistic. Oh, and I think it was a nice detail that when they die in this world, they don't die for real, but they lose their memory and most people commit su*cide because of the emptiness inside them. Maybe even my favorite detail in this book!??

hmm and the friendships in this book were good, I loved the first team directly from the beginning. I loved the beautiful and strong female characters, of course, those 100 episodes spoiled everything, but I said I would exclude that part and actually the main character is VERY NORMAL just more ambitious and tends to be addicted to things however I enjoyed reading him and his efforts. And seriously, there is hardly anyone else who takes the world they go to as seriously as he does and tries to protect it. I also liked the gods in the world. When I start writing, I can't think of anything to write about, I guess, it seems like there aren't that many events in these 500 episodes.🤔

by the way, I liked the villains, they were interesting and strong, so I thought a lot about how the main character's side would beat them because there was really a difference in strength between them.

In short, it was a good book that started well and continued well, but in the end it was a disappointment. Still I can't tell if you should read it or not because I think there are interesting parts still you can find better books and spend your time on it but if you are just looking for something to pass the time you can read this one.

Thanks for reading this far despite the mistakes, I hope I helped you get an idea about the book.♡ <<less

I found this novel becoming one of my favorites as time went on. I’m giving this four stars because of the minor plot holes, I only noticed these in my second read through, so you shouldn’t worry too much. This novel had phenomenal character development; I liked nearly all of the characters. There was nothing useless about anything Seol Jihu (mc) did, always having some small impact on what happened later, which meant that there was very little “filler”. I can’t really pick much out of this, other than that... more>> I would’ve liked to see Seol Jihu’s original timeline as part of the side stories. It made me curious and somewhat disappointed that only little snipits were shown. <<less

It's a fine novel. Not the best but not worst either. I can safely say that it was not boring while reading this novel most of the time. It was a good timepass. There are some characters that I didn't like including MC but it's nothing big. Actually this novel is pretty good if you take the MC out of the show or replace with some other character with different attributes. This guy is indecisive and has no backbone infront of women. And the family parts were unnecessary and absolutely... more>> hated it. Hated the sister and the ex girlfriend omg.. I don't know why there's an character like that in the story. If you delete the ex girlfriend character from the novel there won't be any changes to the story. Absolutely no changes. I hope the author could have put more focus on the main storyline some more. The arc where they go to Hawaii and all is just pure fillers. The ending was Little disappointing for me. I didn't read the epilogue and extra chapters. It's unnecessary. For me it's more like a 3.5 out of 5. It's not a must read but at the same time you won't regret after reading. Atleast I didn't. <<less

Honestly loved it but NOT the side stories

Spoiler

I actually really loved the overall novel but I've made an account just to say wtf was the harem side stories. So far I've only gotten to where Teresa has drugged Jihu and is about to r*pe him, I won't read the rest of the side stories. I'm fine with harem and before the side stories I was all for everyone x jihu cause his relationships with all of them were really nice. However, now I know that almost all of them r*pe him. He didn't even want to get with everyone, he just wanted to stay with Yuhui. The Weird harem plot where all of the women r*pe him and get pregnant so he has to stay is just so forced. If the author wanted Jihu to get with everyone and developed the romantic relationship between each one then I would actually enjoy reading about them. Also, the way the women aren't even mutually agreed on the harem like Yuhui was genuinely crushed that Jihu cheated. He was also so dedicated to Yuhui that he went back to the past many times to prevent him getting with anyone else and no matter what it happened. Jihu was even so upset at himself when he cheated that he is now carrying medication that would prevent himself from getting drunk at any cost. Then Teresa drugs him and r*pes him what??????. It's so weird that the relationship between Jihu and Yuhui is so romantically developed and no one else is with Jihu yet the harem pairings keep on coming. It's just so out of place and I kinda get the feeling that the author forget to finalise all of the harem pairings in the main story so he's just quickly stuffing it in the side stories. The overall novel was really good and I would recommend but beware of alot of the side stories. There are a few nice side stories involving his family or the whole Memorize ramen plot but the weird r*pe harem out of character chapters are so distasteful.

So seol goes throght this amazing journy, he develop a passion for martial arts, set a grand goal for himself to make paradise a better place. And he works towards that goal throughout the story. He starts teaching his knowledge to his friends, he make this massive organization in hope of using it to make paradise a better place. BUT, as soon as he kill parasite queen (as soon as he complete the first step towards his grand goal) what happens? He quits. He resign from position in his organization and starts a noodle shop. He give martial arts and starts making noodles. What happened to his grand goal? What happened to all the progress he made throughout the story? Poof. Author decided to throw it all out of the window and turn the MC into a fking noodles chef.

[collapse]

The other shitty point is romance,
Spoiler

there is a bunch of useless crappy side storiees but none of them show us how he got his wives except for three of his wives out of eight. As for the other five apparently they just happened. There is no context as to how.

All in all good story. Shitty ending. <<less

I really love the world building and character development. There may be some people who doesn't fit the theme and style of this novel, but for me, it will always be one of the best novels I've read. As much as I love OP MCs, I love how 'vulnerable' and 'weak' the MC is not just in physical but also the mental and emotional level. It shows his human side. Especially thinking on how rotten he used to be and his development along the way and how he redeem himself... more>> is just beautiful for me. Not everyone has the strength to do so
Spoiler

especially mending family relations that has been damage to that extent due to gambling addiction of a family member as I can relate since one of my relative is like that and we are still continuing battling this issue up until now. Its painful to see their family breaking apart and being destroyed due to the selfishness of one person to the extend of even selling out their own family (this is just a metaphor bit the level of pain is just the same).

[collapse]
. The novels has its ups and downs but it really is a wonderful read. Some people may have issues with the world building but for me, it just sits right in my alley. The writing style is great, but I did have some issues sometimes with the humor since sometimes it feels forced but still enjoyed it nonetheless. The translation is superb. Just please take note of the tags on this novel so that it will set your mood and see if this is your cup of tea. <<less

I always like to describe this novel as 'realistic'. I meant it in an emotional and human sense. There were so many times where it moved me, the author really knows how to mess with your emotions. The social interactions can get so deep and realistic, twists, betrayals, overcoming your fears, improving as a human being, human fragility, they are all present in this novel.

The fights and the mc's climb to the top are also well written and the story wraps up itself nicely in the end. I didn't sense... more>> any plotholes and all the questions are answered. Overall, one of the best novels I've read. <<less
