I just finished reading this book and all I can say is don't overthink too much while reading this story. The ending will make you go insane... like WTH, seriously?! And it was kinda abrupt. Like, 'that's it?!'

The targets, most of them, were crazy; yandere level 999. Not the cute kind of yandere like in other stories but the ugly and dark side of yandere. You will love them and hate them to hell. This has mature contents like r*pe and gore. I can tolerate gore, and torture but not r*pe. My favorite targets; Yumil, Edwin, Kevin, Xavier (gosh, Xavier's so adorbs, I cried for him).

Pretty much every system target that the MC is "assigned tasks" for falls in love with him and chases after him. They definitely fight over him while the MC's own feelings toward all of them are just lukewarm; most of the time he basically treats them as his job/assignment (because they are). Also the vast majority are really intense yandere/obsessive/crazy MLs.

Shao Ci's "first world/origin" and the relationship he had with his family could have been more satisfactory, as in it didn't feel like it had that much impact on him even though he supposedly had that shadow on his heart for a long time. It really fell short of the events in some of the other worlds.

I wish there were more epilogues or something. TBH the ending was so abrupt; I was pretty disappointed because it felt like a complete cop-out. There were a bunch of hints regarding the ML's real identity with ice powers, mirrors/lakes, and certain eye colors, but in the end, it felt like the author couldn't think of a good way to end the series and just picked the most abrupt/ridiculous ending ever...

MC finished his task and died, the lonely "ML" ate his corpse leaving his head so that they are now on "one body"ughh

MC wake up fr coma though for him it's just minutes but on outside world years already passed. MC realized his body is full of marks and body is hurting (d author didn't describe on detail). Our MC still thinks he's a straight man that's why He's really shocked (though on prev worlds he did exprience some kisses but like??? The heck?? He's already on vegetable state/coma/no choice/ the ML did that to his body

For example, in the mecha/futuristic ABO arc Ji Zhaoyun was a fairly prominent and important character at the start of the arc (the protagonist was temporarily living at his residence and he was close with the 'original protagonist of the novel') but eventually the arc concentrates on a more important plotline and he gets pushed to the background - it's explained that Ji Zhaoyun is focusing on training so he only really gets a briefly mention here and there for the latter part of the arc.

It ends up being one of those plotlines where all the male leads are technically the same person.

The protagonist is actually from a futuristic setting and the whole novel was a test (for some kind of citizenship exam in this sci-fi setting) run by a AI Central Computer who fell in love with the protagonist. This is why some of the MLs have common characteristics in appearance and personality. Honestly, it felt like this was written-in at the end of the story and I only noticed the abundance of God-like silver haired MLs towards the latter arcs. I actually got the impression that the author initially wanted to have a more significant plotline with Si Ran (considering all the hints - e.g. being scared of a certain person's reflection etc).

#Virtual World Arc#

I felt that the Virtual World arc (the world where everyone gets trapped in a game) had rather odd pacing. The start of the arc felt like Game Loading (or any other light novel that has a similar plot), the protagonist experiences different game settings and has to complete a given quest. There is also a plotline focusing on what's happening outside the game with the whole backstory of the 'original protagonist of the novel' and his family situation.

The protagonist experiences several game worlds (each game lasts for several chapters). It did feel a bit weird to read a 'multiple realms' arc within a multiple realms novel; however, there was an overarching plot about what was happening outside the game that somewhat tied everything together.

Suddenly the Sword Art Online plot is introduced where everyone is trapped inside the game. I honestly expected a development where Uit (the guy that uses a scythe) and Jiang Qinghan (the original protagonist) team-up with the protagonist, do some quests together, and then defeat the Central Computer (the main antagonist in this arc).

However, the protagonist immediately confronts the Central Computer and that's suddenly where the focus of the plot is shifted to - Jiang Quinghan was there at the confrontation but disappears into the background until he's used to defeat the Central Computer at the very end of the arc. Uit is pretty much forgotten about...

A great deal of Virtual World Arc focused on the Central Computer - but due to how the arc started, I thought the arc would be about Jiang Quinghan and the situation outside of the game. This is why, for me, the ending of the arc felt too sudden. Jiang Quinghan barely gets any mention once the Sword Art Online plot happens but then, once the issues revolving around the Central Computer is solved, the protagonist dies (and moves onto another world) and there's no further development about Jiang Quinghan or like the "original plot / original backstory"?!??

#Another World Arc#

I found this arc tediously long. The arc is 48 chapters which is by far the longest in this novel.

The original quest was to purify monsters who had been corrupted by demonic energy (of course, using somewhat shameless methods) and it was a great way to introduce temporary male leads that disappeared once the problem was solved. Alongside that, there was this entire plot of defeating the Demon Lord/God to stop the spread of demonic energy and save the world.

However, after Chapter 29 of this arc, some plot twists are revealed and now the protagonist has to obtain the inheritance from each of the 4 demon lords. I honestly would have preferred it if the arc ended smoothly without these plot twists but I assumed this development was related to the ending of 'Befriending The Most Powerful Person'. Perhaps this arc was tied to the origins of the protagonist since this was essentially the last main arc (there's only 8 chapters left afterwards).

The chapters focusing on the first 2 demon lords were decently long and even some monsters that were previously purified make a short re-appearance.

It's just... for example... the siren, who was the first monster the protagonist purified, basically disappears into the background once he's been purified; however, it's heavily hinted that he will return. Then it's not until 30 chapters later, where so much has happened and I pretty much forgot about his existence, he suddenly re-enters the plot. Then the author just quickly kills him off after like one chapter?!??

Also, after the fairly long chapters of the first 2 demon lords, it's like the author has given up and wraps the other 2 demon lords very quickly. The last demon lord gets like a couple sentences of explanation and that's it... Inheritance gained within a paragraph... Why did the undead demon lord get 10 whole chapters yet the other 2 demon lords don't even get one chapter?!?

Blah blah everything gets solved and I'm just left feeling very salty. By the end of this arc, the impact of yanderes had diminished since the protagonist's reaction was simply "not this again T_T".

I cannot accept the fact that all the other characters are him. It just doesn't make any sense. All of them don't have a similarity which hints that they are the same person. Also they did not mention anything about the real world of MC and suddenly jump into it after the last arc?
