Please Stop Pretending To Be a Cute Newcomer!

Description

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

The first step in a tianshi’s retirement plan is to find a place with a beautiful and peaceful scenery. A place with blooming flowers like it’s spring that also has a view of the sea.

The retired tianshi was pulled into the first level of a horror game. He found a thigh that was thick enough to deal with ghosts and raise the family to higher levels. Meanwhile, his responsibilities will be to care about the flowers and watch the sea in peace.

Actually, he could kill a ghost with only a single punch on its back. The audience in the live broadcast just wanted to shake his shoulders and shout: please stop pretending to be a cute newcomer!

Later, under the eyes of the audience, Shen Qingcheng impatiently took out a peach sword [1] and a yellow paper.

Can’t I just have a normal, peaceful day? Spicy chicken game[2], you ruined my retirement life!

Thick thigh: ?

To be honest, I don't really like reading horror story. But this one is an exception because of MC and ML.

... more>>
Spoiler

MC was such a spoilt baby from the start with ML which is a first for me to come across this type of MC and ML who was so gentle to MC from the start and not just doubting and letting MC fend for himself alone. I just love how shameless MC was toward ML and everyone else but after ML being bold toward him, he would get flustered sometimes, though after he realizes his feelings toward MC he will just be even more bold lol.

[collapse]

MC and ML are op from the start but they also went though some difficulty. This MC went through alot, ok? Don't look down on people who act cute and adorable shameless, because I love them lol. MC mostly let ML resolved his problems and unless the plot need him or he would just sleep like a pig lol I just love him so much. Too bad this is just 130+ chapters which is short for just a great story.

Mtl was really easy to read so I really recommend this gem. <<less

one of the few infinite flow stories where no one has amnesia, which makes a very nice change from the other 98%. This story has a decent MC; hidden OP, lazy, and a little quirky, (though he's oblivious to the ML, just like most MC). I'm glad this is getting a translation.

I like the novel. It was suitable for light read, and just to pass time.

The arcs are also good. They were quite entertaining and intriguing.

They we're in a horror game, they need to enter and solve the copy to get out alive. This horror game was actually a bit sci-fi, I won't spoil though.

... more>>
Spoiler

Just kidding, I'll spoil.

There were countless horror game. People behind the game collected the yin energy/resentment from ghosts. Like the time when the ghosts died or blackened, the tipping point or something. The reason why they collected yin energy wasn't stated (or I just missed it, maybe).

[collapse]

They can solve the copy they entered by doing the minimum requirements or by directly solving the mystery in the copy.

All the time, Meiren and Lu Qi is always the first one to solve the mystery. Shen Meiren is the MC's allias, his real name is Shen Qingchen.

He was actually known as Beauty. I think because Meiren means beauty.
Spoiler

He got famous because the first copy he entered, he finished it real quick. He passed the time of the first place in the leaderboards (or something) Rookie King, which is Lu Qi, the ML.

[collapse]

His backstory was actually quite tragic, I teared up when they told what happened to him.

Lu Qi is the steady but sweet ML. Their romance was slow burn, but once they got official, I tell you, it's hella sweet. They sprinkle sugar there and there.

They got together around the 100th Chapter, if you're wondering.

Bye, Qingqing.

Lu Qi, always take care of your beauty! <<less

I MTLed the novel after reading the existing chapters. Even there are only 4 chapters, it succeded to hook me.

Like the MC and ML, the story lines, the mysteries.

I like how shameless MC was. The ML was also not tyrannical. He treated MC gently.

... more>> Because I MTLed this novel, the word meaning is not complete for me, but I feel that after ML knew MC's strength and they tried to find the truth of the game and MC's origin, the "COPY"S that they played become less interesting.

I hope the translator or another translator can pick this up. <<less

Love this story!!!!!!

MC is so coquettish and flirty with ML~ it’s so cute and funny lmao. ML may be serious at the beginning with MC but later he seems to give up and play along hahahaha. Cute couple ahh! Never get boring with their interactions~

The plot is amazing. Tho MC is overpowered, he only uses his power when he is alone in the game without ML. Since his goal is to hug ML’s golden thigh hahahah

I actually hope for more extra chaps~ really not enough 😫

So I usually don't like escape game stories because I don't really like to read scary things but this one wasn't bad. And actually the different arcs were pretty fun. I love how shameless the MC is while still being quite competent. And he really does take hugging a golden thigh very seriously lmao. I also enjoyed how the romance progressed. There were any really awkward moments and I could see the growth over time. Very fun to read.

Update: I didn't expect that backstory for the MC!! 😩😢 This novel... more>> was great. I could read several more arcs! But also, it felt very complete. And I appreciated the extra chapter that gave us a little more insight to the aftermath. <<less

Well, I will say it was an enjoyable read.

Spoiler

Unfortunately one of the reviewer of the was wrong about the amnesia thing. So many horror stories have this plot- >.<

[collapse]

MC ML interactions are cute. Although I didn't understand one thing

Spoiler

Why flirt and be clingy with ML if you don't even know if you are gay or not? Maybe this is a cultural shock of something- but I simply never understood this trope in the fics where MC is flirty (and not just sassy), full on touchy with a stranger.

Interesting but it gets confusing in later chapters, I wouldn't really recommend this if you are looking for something that concentrates on the romantic plot

Brazen, competent, somewhat flirty MC with a background in taking care of ghosts, he died and woke up in this horror game world, he's tired and wants someone else to take care of him instead of dealing with this supernatural junk all the time, stoic ML don't know a lot about him

Glad this is getting translated at first 4.5* but later feels like 3*? Idk

Such a sweet infinite horror novel! MC is powerful, but wants to be a dried fish and hug ML's thigh. ML is aloof, but a standup guy. After reading so many novels, I'm so glad this ML has more green flags than red flags.

The instances are decent storylines, though probably not as good as some others where you need to solve things more deeply. Definitely recommend for a chance of pace with from the aloof MCs or comedically clumsy MCs since this one is shameless but powerful.

Minor iff that doesn't affect overall story:

Spoiler

There's a little bit of h*mophobia from one of the extremely minor side characters, but it's played off as humorous because the homophobic character is fairly harmless.

[collapse]

After a certain point (once it's way too obvious he's not a weakling), he doesn't hug ML's thigh as much, but is kind of childishly lazy which ML starts to go along with indulgently.

I like the love development and I always have my fill of dog food in every instance. Most of the instances are also unique and interesting

Downside: The author didn't tell much of their lives every after instances nor the players interaction outside the copy. Don't know if I'm gonna drop since I got a little disappointed to ML, keeping secrets fr MC (anyway, it's understandable).

This novel has a fearless MC but unlike other unlimited flow novels with OP protagonist, this MC is lazy and here just to relax and have some fun. He is not running around solving the mystery or saving people. He wants to sleep, eat and do nothing in those horror instances. That is why he sticks with a strong ML and pretends to be a weak when he doesn't really need to. But of course sometimes he forgets to act and baffles those around him.

Because of MC's character and how... more>> he acts around ghosts, this story is not scary. Some parts can be actually comedic rather than horror. <<less

This novel doesn't really delve into the mystery of the instance which is unique cause usually for a horror hopping game, it focuses on solving the mystery behind the instances which this novel isnt (i mean they do but our MC doesn't focus too much on solving the mystery on deeper level cause he only wants a life of retirement after his job lol, which I like! A breath of fresh air this novel is!)

Highly recommend!
