This Damned Thirst for Survival

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.

This is very much the hate > love trope. MC wakes up in a novel he read where the 'uke' was someone the canon fodder he is impersonating, killed. He legit wakes up at a funeral for the 'uke' but pretends to start crying and saying the 'uke' confessed to him. Now everyone believes that the 'uke' was in love with MC. 'Uke' is actually our ML who is an evil spirit with a SPOILER* ghost eating curse on his back. *

Him and the MC go about trying to kill... more>> each other for about 50 chapters, the romance doesn't really hit till chapter 60 and the ML doesn't realize he's in love till ~120 chapters into this. And EVEN THEN ITS STILL LIKE "How can I make MC suffer but still let him know I love him." I'm legit losing touch with these two because this is such a sharp relationship. No soft points. All daggers. I'm on chapter ~132.... and it's getting kind of old having them try to make each other suffer. Also MC finds out that ML loves him and proceeds to mock him about it ANY CHANCE HE GETS. It makes sense, I would do the same thing too if someone killed me 18 times in my dreams.

If you liked Thriller Trainee, I'd recommend this. <<less

At first I wasn’t sure how their love is going to work out but DAYUM the tension is crazy. Both MC and ML are crazy, never back down. The s*xual tension is also crazy. Reread this twice now! So much teasing and getting back, my heart is stressed and excited at the same time

Wassup folks! I have read this all the way through the available chapters and here are my thoughts :^

FIRST THINGS FIRST: THE s*xual TENSION IS OFF THE CHARTS. LIKE DAMN.

WHENEVER THE MC AND ML ARE IN THE SAME ROOM AT ANY PART IN THE STORY THE TENSION MAKES YOU WONDER IF THEY WILL TRY TO KILL ONE ANOTHER OR GIVE THE OTHER A VIOLENT bl**job.

... more>> *Huff* *Huff*

But anyway...

[Here is my long ass rant]

Our MC is a f*cking beautiful bastard. He is so calm and clever and he can act different ways depending on the situation, I love him so much. ♡

Plus, he is not a good person and acknowledges that. He does everything to 'survive'. He does grow to love those around him, but that takes a while and that is after he had all but secured his survival.

That unapologetic nature of his is part of why I would die for him and love him so much. :]

The ML is also a treat to watch as he goes from "oh, he is interesting" to "I wonder what I can do to make him fall for me because I need him in my life and I love him so much".

Like the MC he is not a good person by any means and like the MC he is a very crafty, calculating person. His goal is revenge for the most part and in order to accomplish his goal he will do literally anything.

But the fact he learned about lust and love and desire from the MC's very existence is kinda heartwarming. :>

Their relationship is violent and strange, but at the same time beautiful and warm.

I would compare it to a snake, something so lovely and charming but at the same time dangerous. It strikes when they least expect it and it's up to the other person to decide what to do in order to escape it.

Only for it to wrap around them and bring them closer together.

The world building and plot is pretty good, but overall the main characters and their relationship is what brings you in.

I read some comments on how the side characters are just kinda s*upid, which is fair because although part of that could just be the MC and ML being ☆manipulative bastards☆, the background characters are just that: background characters.

Another way to put it is this: I would die for all of them, but I don't know any of their names. :^

Basically everything other than the MC and ML is just kinda mid lol. But the MC and ML are so amazing that the aftershock of their meeting kinda blows all the insignificant stuff aside

[/here is my long ass rant]

TLDR: I love this story so much and I adore the characters (but especially the main couple) in it so much that I was willing to sell my soul so that they were happy. The tension and the writing was amazing and I will read it again and again. U^U <<less

the original translators did a great job and I hope they continue with this novel! Currently putting this on hold at ch 56 bc of the mtl.

summary: the MC, jiang luo, transmigrated into a book he's previously read called [Devil] and became the jealous cannon fodder that killed the original mc/shou protagonist chi you. Now, chi you has become an evil spirit that is set on getting revenge and MC has to find a way to survive.

holy shit! Lmao I went into the novel blind and did not read... more>> any of the comments and I don't want to spoil anything but I was pleasantly surprised that chi you is actually out to get him. Like for real. The enemies to lovers trope is strong in this one!!!i love it when the supporting cast sticks around and are memorable <3 because of the setting and concept of there only being a few metaphysical spiritual colleges and their existence not being known to the whole world. So even people from the 6 great clans are frequently mentioned. <<less

i am going to give 5stars, however, after went through the part with "State Control", what the hell is that!! Whole story toppled with just that scenario. State is object. A handful group of people so call LEADERS who is manipulating entire population named themselves "State". Apart from that rubbish, whole story is worth to read.

This novel really pique my interest cause honestly I could not imagine the relationship of the two main characters, the MC and ML. Every chapter of this novel made me want to more just to solve my curiosity. I also like the MC, Jiang Lou, for he is not the usual shou of other bl novels, because he could stand with his own strength and he's smart. I also like the change of our MC from thinking of using other people as his tool for protection to treating them as... more>> real friends and even willing to die for his friends. For the ml, he's a crazy guy and but even crazier for the MC, lol. His character also caught my interest because he's not the usual ML that immediately fell in love with the MC for the sole reason that the MC suddenly changed. I actually stopped reading the novel at chapter 170+ something not because it's boring but because I don't want to finish it immediately.

To be honest, I did not think that I would like this novel because of its horror tag, however, this novel really captured my interest slowly. I actually read this novel before until chapter 6 but then I stopped cause I could not feel the spark when reading it, but then when I continued to read it, things got more interesting that will make you want to read more. So if you are hesitant to read it, THIS IS YOUR SIGN. <<less

Honestly, I read this thinking it would be a cute story. Even after it was shown that it wasn’t, I tried to enjoy their story and the plot. However, I don’t understand how they became attracted to one another. I feel stifled by the toxic “I want to kill you” feeling between the love interest and the protagonist. Seems like they are on a heavier side of love. Near chapter 200, I started losing interest due to their constant “let’s watch each other bleed like roses” vibe.

I don’t like the... more>> main couple however the plot is still interesting. The little stories of mysteries are exhilarating and it’s always fun to figure out as you read.

Originally, I wanted to give it a 3 but I realized that there are many things that make this novel amazing. The character designs and the development, I was all up for that. The hidden plots that held important keys to figuring out the main culprit and complications!

Some enjoy this, some don’t and I think it’s fine! It’s up to whoever reads this and be able to determine whether it suits their preferable read. So, I wish you don’t take my opinion to heart but use it as reference when you choose whether or not to read this. Answer still lies in your preference! (Peace out) <<less

Did not expect it to be so good. I really loved both the MC and ML and also the other side characters.

Even though the translation is a bit weird the story's beauty could not be hidden.

The enemies to lovers trope were really well portrayed, they were very strong and at the same time dark. Always trying to outsmart each other, I think that is the strongest dynamic in their relationship.

Loved it, loved it very much.

MY HAND SLIPPED! IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE 5 STARS!!!

This is so worth it!!!!!!!

Do not miss this unique piece of work !!!

If you bypass this it's your loss!!!

One of the most spiced up bl novels ever! A maniacal love with poison cured by poison... passion throughout and plenty fluff nearing the end.

Has lovable side characters, not too annoying villains and an engaging plot line.

If nothing else must read it for the unique gun powder smelling chemistry of the main cp.

This is definitely worth the read! Jiang Luo and Chi You's relationship even arouses feelings of excitement and wishing that I had something like that too (but I don't cause I am lazy af and would just be a salted fish W/C IS THE POINT) cause it's nice. I like how Jiang Luo gradually became strong and his powers are not invincible, he practically just used it for important times. I like how Chi You's feelings were developed ... more>>
Spoiler

it was funny that JL only discovered his feelings when he was dying but I think it's the only way for him to not OOC lol

[collapse]
. Their hated for each other in the beginning is well reasoned, and their feelings are also well explained.

Spoiler

I would have like it if there were extras of them in the original world but this novel is not that kind of novel which is a pity but alright

[collapse]

Definitely a good read BUT, the translation isn't perfect but pretty readable, considering this is my second time reading an edited MTL (number onze zombie wife is the other one) which I have to complain, why are good novels not being fully HTL huhuh anw, it's worth the struggle of the imagination being ruined cause the the characters suddenly become a She lol.

The side and supporting characters are pretty good too, I like how there are no unnecessary side couples, cause their friendships are pretty enough.

Recommended!!, read again? Hmmmm, maybe if there's an HTL? <<less

Good novel! If you like the novels with supernatural elements this might be for you

I would say that the first 100 chapters are quite slow, but once their relationship took off it gets more and more interesting, however if there's something is that MC takes a really f*cking long time to discover he has fallen in love with ML
Also, the relationship of MC with his friends is actually really nice, he gets to feel affection for them and he draws a line with ML about not interfering with his... more>> friends and him, even tho they (MC & ML) have a really toxic relationship (tbh) they still can set some boundaries and they are cute together lol <<less
