I Rely on Drawing Cards to Set Up a Persona

A distinguished guest was welcomed to the palace of the Arilance Empire.

This lord was said to be a noble emperor.

After hearing this, the people of the empire scoffed. Who’s emperor would wander around in despair? This man must be a liar.

The emperor of the Arilance Empire was a tyrant.

The people of the empire placed their bets, speculating on the date when the liar would be beheaded by the emperor.

Three months, five months……

Months have passed, and the liar has not yet been beheaded. The people of the empire can barely remember about it.

One day, the blue sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. Holy archangels and black-winged demons stood together, headless hors**en rode on abyssal dragons, and thousands of troops came from a distance.

——They came to meet their emperor.

That day, almost everyone in the city saw the powerful foreign race at the head and the thousands of troops kneeling down on one knee to the liar in the palace, with their right hands clenched into the left side of their chests.

——The world is ignorant, only the emperor shines with the sun and the moon.

——I offer my heart and loyalty to my lord.

The people: ……

No way, is this for real?

I love BL but I wished that there was no romance at all. Everytime the ML appears with his child-like courting (but actually wanting to monopolize him), the story becomes stale.

Anyway, I’m still glad that the romance only occupies a few chapters and the focus is still on upgrading the card pool and looking for solutions on how to solidify his “emperor” status.

Compared to the ML, the MC is much more interesting. I’m sure that the author will reveal their connection much later and perhaps it will be interesting? Idk.... more>> I still wish this has no romance.

Spoiler

or maybe... a romance between two card masters instead to even their status?

The premise is interesting and the characters are likable. I don't see any major problem if you're used to reading novels like this. It's MC centered so every single thing in their novel revolves around the MC's halo. Reminds me of rpg card games, you level up as you go, so I read it for the nostalgia. MC is oblivious so it's already 100 chapter and romance is non existent, I don't know why this is bl except that they needed a tool man which is ml.

As long as you... more>> won't care too much about plot holes, you'll be fine. The ML is your snob to other people except those who interest him which was no one except MC. MC is your character who thinks he will be killed by the ML if he knew he is lying so he keeps lying and doesn't take any other hint because of idk his insecurity and low self-esteem, I guess. Regardless, it was entertaining.

My only obstacle in reading this is that every scenario/lies the MC make isn't believable (for me, because I'm a logical thinker) he is a scriptwriter so the character backstory he gives to his card and to himself screams of chunibyo. It feels like if he didn't have an MC halo and the ML it's interested in him, he would have been dead by chapter 1 already. Side characters calls his bluff but they're side characters for a reason, just to be slapped even though they were smart. I also don't understand why he keep mentioning how powerful his empire is, as if that is what a powerful empire would say when they're in an uncertain territory, for me that would just scream trouble and a con man. Since he was apparently on a mission to find his relatives. I like it but these just keeps getting stuck in my head. <<less

This is a pretty interesting read. The MC has to pretend to be emperor from a country far away, and I get the feeling that in the future, his 'empire' will become a real one. The basic gist of the novel is mainly kingdom building and the romance comes very late since both the ML and the MC are a bit oblivious. But overall, it's a good novel.

If anyone doesn't want to wait, I have more MTL'd chapters here. Just join my discord with this code: sFdg94SJRh

Entertaining to read! Had my laugh so much XD however, this can be better if this has a solid story building. Star Field Card Pool - system that manages different card pools. There are different types card pools such as beast card pool, lightning, chaos card etc. The chaos card pool is composed of different races. Since the chaos cards are deviant, most of their owners discard them to be recycled. R/N: I super love all the cards 💕

MC - has a very low luck and has picked up the... more>> chaos card pool. He already transmigrated with the original person pretending as emperor. So his only choice is to maintain that vest, else he will be killed by the tyrant. But lies lead to bigger lies so our MC needs to make that lie a reality. This is the hilarious part. The MC is really silly and he knows that his lie is somewhat unbelievable but others have no proof so he just lives with it.

ML - attracted to eyes of our MC. He doesn't believe the MC but he doesn't plan to kill him to pull out the person behind MC. He thinks that there's a conspiracy behind it. Eventually, he falls in love with him and wooes him in a very very childish way. He also wears vest and makes silly things to attract the MC and I find some of those annoying.

Near ending went downhill so I skim Fr c137. Slightly disappointed <<less

A very interesting concept that I really wanted to like, but in the end it just wasn’t for me. I really liked the idea of a gacha like system combined with a conman trying to bluff his way out and avoid death but the problem is that while the concept is interesting, the actual execution is a different story. Constantly every problem is solved by pulling a new character out of the pool with OP powers that work just for what MC needed, which makes sense because gacha games both... more>> have a meta and tons of characters; but playing a gacha game vs reading about a gacha game are two different things. Simply put, it feels like the MC has huge amounts of plot armor and simply cannot lose because he’ll just pull a new card and the perfect solution will appear out of nowhere with little to no foreshadowing or explanation and kill any tension that could possibly arise.

It’s not as if the story is bad and the gacha concept is interesting, but for me I just simply can’t get into the story and feel bored every time I try to read it. Thus, I must stop here. <<less

I really enjoyed this one. MC is very caring toward his subordinates and treats them like a big family. My favorite is when they act as a group to deceive others LOL
