Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.“If I don’t die… I swear I will act on all my evil thoughts..”
Not exactly everyone’s typical thought when they’re about to die. What will a cowardly young man do when reincarnated with the evil powers to redefine his destiny? Can the natural kindness of human nature triumph over evil? Will he become the cold-blooded demon king of legend, or will he forge his own path and rain down another kind of terror?

Currently there is no plot whatsoever except that the MC is in a new world and he has to become stronger to survive here, full stop. The usual shounen troupe. MC:
A childish demon. He is far from a real demon and more like a more violent school bully. Harem:
Females are s*upid, teenagers and adults alike. Other Support Cast:
None to remember, they are there to make trouble and become a source of revenge for the MC. MC carries a list of these characters and pulls different pranks to take revenge. These only serve as humor at first but only annoying later. Writing:
The writing is very captivating, except for the childish love scenes and descriptions of female bodies. The only thing keeping me from actually dropping and moving on.
Following this you have transformation from "ret*rd" to "brilliant leader"s in like 1 chapter. tldr: Expected more >: (
Irene, (suddenly lost her presence after the middle of the range)
Angelica, Belinda (Both of them suddenly never mentioned again, and becoming less and less important)
Maxine (never got mentioned again after half of the range)
Delia, Cecilia (suddenly she lost her presence)
He has an unnatural change of attitude (like most CN rebirth MC's do) - shy NEET in modern age transforms into a ruthless killing machine over a small span of time. Granted, the demonic cultivation kinda helped him adapt his mind to a brutal world, but still u don't simply go from a nerd to a heartless butcher in a year... Also, he has massive attitude changes several times. He shows random acts of kindness and acts all goody-goody with people he never met before for no reason at all, and he also randomly slaughters and threatens other people also for no reason which also gets him into unfavourable situations and even compromises the lives of his companions. World building is pretty decent, as it has the default trope of lower to higher worlds and it's easy to understand. The romance also isn't very good as half of the girls that are in his harem got in love with him when he r*ped them and they unnaturally develop feelings for him (basically they hate him and with a few words of seduction from him, they instantly change their mind). I consider them "Friends with benefits", perhaps excluding his teacher who he seems to have actual romantic feelings for. The other women are just there for him to get stuff done and get his lust sated. Oh, and to have someone to protect, as well as to have someone admire him and tell the readers how godly he is, it feels too much like a wish-fulfillment self-insert story. As for cultivation there is no need for me describe it too much as it is similar to Coiling Dragon system (mages and warriors and then god ascension). Overall it isn't so bad, it wasn't too repetitive, MC was for the most part acceptable beside the errors I mentioned above, the story was decent and the important side characters had their own development. The only bad point was how authors take on romance. I'd recommend it to people who don't want too much profoundness in a novel, but are there for pure enjoyment or relaxation. ch1 - ch50 - 2 / 10 star rating,
Beginning is kinda sketchy, didn't like the whole ''prankster'' thing he did in the the school, every character felt as if they had mental ret*rdation (even the MC, only less than others). Thankfully, that went away relatively fast when he went to a forest (around ch50). ch50 - ch800 - 6.5 / 10 star rating,
From then to the middle part of higher realm arc it's pretty decent, however there are some glaring errors - near the end of Profound Continent arc he is all over the place, he compromises the safety of his friends several times by offending higher forces and two times the entire clan of his pet dragon got annihilated (the second time nobody was left alive) because of his brashness. ch800 - ch1027 - 5.5 / 10 star rating,
The start of higher realm arc wasn't very good, as when he left for it, he didn't even tell his friends and girls about leaving and before that he was also separated from them for quite some time, however, at least he brought them with him later on and helped them cultivate.
There is also the stuff about him offending people he shouldn't. I mean it happened earlier, but now its just on a much grander scale and he could have avoided it (like there was a case when he could transform into another person (with the ability he has for a long time now) and do the assassination but no, he did it in his real appearance and even revealed most of his trump cards) . Another bad point was the final villain - she has appeared in the last chapter, and in the same chapter got defeated...
But there were some positive points, like the funny interactions between him and his sons (5 zombies and skeleton) and him helping an ugly girl get out of her bad situation (that's very rare in CN novels, since most mc's get repulsed by ugly girls, or they are made to be villains). Also, I was glad that the sons were also developed and had some screentime and they unexpectedly also had love interests.
