This is not NTR. This is not "like NTR" either. Your one sided crush having a one sided crush on someone else is not even at the same timezone of NTR. Ffs it has a harem tag. If anything MC is the one going to be stealing girls hearts.

It's a villainess story from hypercompetent butler perspective. Villainess has a crush on og male lead things go sideways and story starts at the aftermath of denouncement.
Spoiler

It does the villain diary thing where side pov characters see glimpses of the alternate reality. Which is somewhat fresh.

[collapse]

I read ahead to c50 and can say it's actually pretty good for the most part. (Unless you are a certain type of person then you'll hate it.)

Legit tr*sh. Both the male and female lead are boring and one dimensional. Both seems to be lacking about -20 IQ points judging by the way they speak and act. The author does the classic thing where the female lead is absolute garbage from the get go with no redeeming qualities, that way even the tiniest good thing she does or say can be called ""character development"". The male lead Ricardo seem s*ave-like in his disposition to this girl, because he was saved by the villainess as a kid and... more>> this is apparently enough to put up with her annoying dogsh*t for over a decade.

The conversations between these two characters make Oblivion NPCs seem lifelike, here is an example of dialog:

– Do you know, Ricardo? I think I've met my destiny.

– You mean that gentleman?

– Shut up.

– Hmm. Is he handsome?

– Yes! He's very charming and kind!

– But I'm handsome too, right?

– Ugh...

And let's not forget that the only reason the villainess starts liking the male lead is because of a sudden deus ex machina that shows her a what would have happened without the 'selfless' sacrifice of the male lead. Only a 'It's a wonderful life' ripoff and literally divine intervention could make this braindead bimbo see reason.

Judging by the first 10 chapters I have serious doubts about the abilities of this Author, your average LLM could probably write better. <<less

This KR-Novel is a hidden gem. The first 10 chapters might not spill the whole story, but trust me, once you hit chapter 10 and beyond, it's a wild ride. Ever wondered why Ricardo's acting like a simp for Olivia? It's not just some cliche stuff; there's way more depth to it. Ricardo's been a lone wolf all his life—was an orphan in his past life and ended up the same way after getting reincarnated. The reason he's all in for Olivia? She's his savior, the one who gave his... more>> life meaning and pulled him out of solitude. She's his family, and he'd do anything to protect and make her happy. Olivia's his sun.

What's cool about this novel is that it's not a harem (at least for now). The banter between Ricardo and Olivia is top-notch, mixing drama and comedy like a pro. It stands out from recent KR-novels because it bothers with character development, delving into backstories and giving side-characters some limelight. It's a heartwarming tale of a butler and his eccentric mistress. And can we talk about how Olivia, despite being a villainess, is surprisingly pure? She gets a bad rap because she's brutally honest about her feelings, but thankfully, her loyal butler's got her back.

Overall, it's a solid 5-star story for me. The author brings a unique twist to the table, with elements that set it apart from other KR-novels. If you're into a plot that shakes things up, this one's worth checking out.

PS. Unrelated, but I just wanted to point out that I prefer the previous cover than the current one. <<less

I don't get the hype, honestly. This is just another one of those self-sacrificing cringe fests. And I do mean cringe. Every time the MC tells his thoughts about someone it is just cringe. 'Oh, he hates me and wishes I die, but he is my friend, ' Kind of trip.

Also, the way they converse... legit not human. I know what they talk like, like characters in a poorly-written B movie.

People say this novel has fleshed-out characters, how? The first girl, Hana (or something) has one motivation, to earn... more>> her father's recognition, and when events related to that end, she has become a trophy.

Character development for side characters who are not heroines (cuz they need a reason to like the MC after all) are driven by visions... lazy as f. Now you have noticed what I said in the ' () ' earlier, right? Well, that is a lie too. The only reason the 'Villainess' even starts to give a f*ck about the simp, I mean, MC is cuz of a vision from god.

By the way, the MC is just a Gary Stu. There is nothing that distinguishes him from other Korean MCs. He is loyal to a fault, he does the whole 'for the good of others' and is op as f*ck.

He genuinely does not feel like a real human being and rather like someone's self-insert.

If you are looking for something that's just regular Korean Slop which is admittedly better than most, then read it.

If you are looking for something unique? Eh, better luck next time. <<less

It's weird how the villainess who didn't have any feelings for MC who she was with for 13years and liked OG protagonist suddenly started having feelings for MC after her downfall, meh I'd rather choose some other girl over who just starts liking you after you are useful to them since before that he was just a butler and a servant working for money -_-

You need to give it a few chapters because in this the villainess is actually not very likeable. But you come to realise that she is basically the MCs family that he will never give up on no matter what. It's quite sweet, but it could do without what looks to be a harem formation on the horizon. If a story takes a single romance seriously, harems just make you feel bad for a bunch of people that are second wheels.

This is one of the best novels of this type (transition to a character in a work), as all the characters are alive, the dynamics, and the dialogues between the servant and his mistress are funny and enjoyable, and I never tire of them.

Quite an interesting take on the-villainess's-butler trope-

Edit:c250

Nope,

... more>> Story's been going on and on without much progress.

Some problems that could be solved just by having a civilized conversation are being stretched like rubber without giving any plausible reason.

I mean sure the MC doesn't want to detrail the story too much so that he can predict the future but, If he is so hell bent on this then he should just stop caring for OG storyline to begin with.

But if he can't get over his past connections and so called friendship that he is also hell bent keeping, he should just go all in on helping the OG Protagonists complete the story.

Also about the Villainess, well she wasn't so villainous to begin with but she should have developed more,

I mean yes, there have been development if you compare the 1st chapter and current chapters but if you look at the dynamic from the perspective that she was a lady of a prestigious noble house before the downfall, I really don't get it, why would someone spoil her to the point that she still looks like an airhead (after character development) even though she has seen various scenes of her own death and suffering much less of the MC.

She just keeps on lamenting that she has been nothing but burden to everyone else but doesn't do anything to rectify it. There are no major actions taken by her that show her resolve to help her benefactors.

And MC who prides himself for being better than the typical dense protagonists should really get the hint from how all the girls behave around him. Or he should just stop stringing them along.

It's really been frustrating till now.

Even though MC laments about detrailing the story due to his actions, he still goes on and does it which feels like a tsundere but, more frustrating.

And the System, I really don't get the purpose of it. It doesn't help the MC much, telling him to not interfere with the story while also issuing tasks that directly impact the story which sets a chain raection that keeps on repeating.

The MC is always grieving about not being able to reach the sword master realm while not even trying to do anything about it. I mean MAN if you want to become strong so much, just stop playing around and TRAIN.

And MC really likes going on Power trips, I mean showing off in front of every enemy is always the first task he does. And sure taunting is a tactic used by many fighters but the way he uses it feels like he considers himself far superior than anyone, even if his opponent is a sword master, being able to slice him (MC) apart in single strike.

Really the MC and his Villainess master should get more development in both EQ and IQ, because while side characters (like Hans) have developed by leaps and bounds, MC and his master have stagnated so much that they remind you of kindergarteners who are a little smart but still as much annoying to the point their smartness can be translated as their dumbness.

If MC doesn't pull himself together and start acting like he actually cares about everyone he is close with (including the OG FMC and the OG MC) this story isn't going anywhere. <<less

Read the first 20 chapters before giving up as it will rope you in. This is one MC you don't mind being a simp; he is hysterical without intending to and charismatic. The best part of the novel is the interaction between the villainess and the MC. It's like the daily life of the carefree butler and spoiled bratty villainess.

... more>>
Spoiler

The system in this novel is, in itself, like a character. I'm not sure if it's the god of the world, but it lets the other characters know the outcome of what would happen if they don't do this or that.

This is a pretty good novel. It is simple, though, so it may have issues with later chapters. But it currently executes the concept quite well, so there's that.

From chapter 60:

So far I've been enjoying this story. I personally think it does the trope of villainess a lot better than most stories in this genre, where you either have someone reincarnated into a villainess who doesn't understand cause and effect or a villainess who isn't actually evil. In this story the villainess is objectively bad, but you also can understand it. The book does a good job by stating her sins, but never going into specific detail which both enforces that the villainess has done bad things but... more>> by not explicitly stating them it prevents her character from being unlikeable. Her personality is one of the first ones for this genre where I could actually understand why she was a villainess, because she has traits like being stubborn to a fault, selfish, ect. where it makes sense for her to be obsessive in love while at the same time this novel balances that with keeping her likable by showing moments on how she actually cares about the MC. There are a few things I slightly dislike with the story, but at this point I don't feel like doing a spoiler to explain and its more of my personal preference on some minor things so it doesn't really matter.

Overall this novel feels more to me like a romance/slice of life with a bit of action rather than the typical villainess novel which to me makes it feel fresh. The villainess genre is more being used as a template than following in the tropes that are common in these novels, and I like how it starts after everything went down which actually makes the villainess have a history of doing bad things.

From chapter 113:

So, after reading further I've started to lose interest in the novel... Its not that the book is bad but more to me it just feels like not much is keeping me hooked. Theres a few threads set up but not enough to where I feel compelled to read the next chapter, and being in this state for a while I just don't feel like continuing.

PS: No idea what pekokopiko is going on about... At least from my perspective the story has done plenty to justify its characters motivations and actions. I think they just hate the characters personalities and hence they are calling the entire novel tr*sh. I hope that their review doesn't make anyone not want to read the book since at least to me I don't agree with any of their points. <<less

Honestly, the only reason why I am writing this review is to rant and vent about how disappointed I am. I really enjoyed the first 100 chapters or so and only read on to see more of Olivia and Hanna and I was overlooking a lot of things just to how their relationships would develop with the MC but nothing really happens.

At first we see a lot of character development from Olivia due to the status window showing her alternative timelines and I thought it was pretty unique that the... more>> status window wasn't just limited to the MC. But the author really fooled us into believing that these alternative memories actually meant anything because Olivia's character quite literally remains the same from the 2nd alternative memory onwards. Its like she gets reset to her factory settings after brawling her eyes out when she witnesses the injustices that the MC faces in the alternative memories. They just seemed really irrelevant to her character growth despite her basically being traumatized after every viewing. We have a couple of lines potentially hinting at Olivia developing feelings/becoming aware of MC? Nope, not really. It's just all forgotten about the next chapter as if nothing ever happened.

It just got really tiring after 100 chapters of no development whatsoever between Olivia and MC while Hanna goes from a really appealing/strong heroine into your typical harem member just chasing MC. I do enjoy harem but man its like we forgot all about her character developments too and just rendered her another mindless harem member. Might as well add the guys to the harem too since even though they had decent character development in the beginning, they just faded in the background and became convenient plot devices for the MC to shine more. <<less

Too highly rated. Its a typical story of OP butler collecting girls in his adventure. There are some interesting plot points but as the story progresses the author seems to forget about developing it. The story also seems to worsen as author tried to introduce more characters but didnt put much thought into them. It would have been alright if author tried to at least flesh out the few love interest or the villains but nope. It turn out to be more and more typical generic story.

Also the story progress... more>> extremely slow.. And when I say slow I mean it.. <<less

I read the chapters ahead than on this web.

this fic is legit tr*sh. You may wonder why the butler is a simp? The author maked it that he is a loner before Olivia save him and gave his life meaning, since he is an orphan in his past life and ended up the same in his new life and so the first person that save him, he will make sure lick the sh*t out of em.

the system is just a "diary" tipe of system where the characters will get glimpses... more>> of what can happen.

the MC and fML is so boring that they are more one dimensional than Sieg <<less

The formula goes somewhat like this: game-like "system" gives side characters menial quests like [Touch Grass] and then, no matter if they succeed or fail, shows them visions of alternative timeline or the past where MC has to self-sacrifice to clean up after they make a mess. These visions fill them with guilt and regrets, make them obsess with MC and make them want to repay him with their body.

The same game-like "system" regularly gives MC quests too, which are more like offers-you-can't-refuse like [Save this Character: Failure: You Die],... more>> but also rewards him with overpowered and plot-convenient buffs, so MC's self-sacrifice turns out to be not so self-sacrificial in the end.

Nobody has any agency of their own, everyone is a will-less doll in the "system's" hands, and the "system" remains the worst trope ever invented.

Anyway, the main appeal is supposed to be daily interactions between MC and his Mistress, I guess. This part is alright, the girl is adorable, though her childish nature and straight-forward personality make her rather unfit for a role of the villainess. <<less

I struggle in this novel I like this novel the story, world building and the setting of the story it feel unique but this held back by the very unlikeable Heroine (villaness?) seriously the author really goes to far to make the heroine really unlikeable she act like a spoiled toddler, she has no remorse what she done, she has no emphaty and do anything she want regardless the consequences she really didn't have any Reedeming quality the only good thing anyone can say about her is she's very pretty... more>> and I won't be surprised if they confirm she's actually autistic.

The MC is not better either he's such simp it became pathetic there's is other simp MC but it became devoted MC but that's not this MC this MC is really a pathetic simp that he himself didn't know why he's doing all of this which is shame because this MC is really interesting he's reasonably OP, he's smart, he's snarky and has an interesting back story.

And the resolution of problem is very unique in this novel but if you think about it a bit lazy
Spoiler

so the system is not unique for MC some people also get a system but the reward are the show the "if" scenario or what actually happened of the event and that's not optional even if you fail the quest it also show you another story, this what prompted the change in the Heroine yeah there's need a divine intervention for the heroine to grow

[collapse]

I realized the SIMPING is the point of this story so if you like that kind of story this should 5/5 for you <<less

Haah. It's too sweet and sad for me so I'll dip for now.

The story is about a butler and a lady (Transmigrated guy and a villainess).

In a world where there's a heroine and a lot of guys hovering around her to gain her affection, however, it doesn't end with just getting the guys, the original story goes on for the heroine and her harem saving the world.

Anyway, our butler is high spec OP guy, while our villainess is just cute, she's honest to a hurtful degree, and she's childish and... more>> naive in comedic ways, she believes whatever the butler says when he's just messing around with her.

The story is too sweet. The bickering between butler and lady, how intimate they are, and how close they are. They have long passed the boundaries of master and servant but they still play the role.

The butler is very fond of lady and has her as his number 1, however I'm not sure if it's romantic love.

Lady is just naive and a fool (like mentally a kiddo), so I'm not even sure if she likes the butler or if she's still confused about her situation.

The consequences of what happened before left them broken, both mentally and physically and alone with no one else to rely on, they are hated by everyone.

That's why this story just feels bitter to me.

The butler gave everything to the lady with no holding back, while the lady is broken but still positive about life and enjoys every moment of it.

It just feels like they have their own world and they accompany each other while dealing with their problems along the way.

I'm not good with this type of story. It hurts but is sweet at the same time. <<less

Starts off good and gets progressively worse for every other character but the 2 main ones. The main couple have great synergy and if the story was confined to them and 1 off stories of other characters then it would be great, but they decide to include the characters from the novel for no reason other than to show the strength of the protagonist. For me the best character in this novel is the villainess and the worse is either the MC or the freshman girl Hannah

Him reincarnating into the... more>> novel does not even matter for the story except provide a reason for

1) show off the he is a orphan once again, not really having a family or people he is close with 2) modern foo

3) creating a wheel chair and elixir from the novel (maybe

If you get rid of his reincarnation and kept his desire to protect his master nothing in the story really changes.

Spoiler

It's shown in a possible future where if he didn't save the villainess because he didn't reincarnate, he still would be there for her.

[collapse]

This novel also does have a system; it is just not as annoying because it's not a major part of the story. It basically the only way the MC gets stronger. Most of the buffing missions happened in the past while the ones we see are just plot devices to advance character relationships, not the story. The novel story is on hiatus until the MC needs something or the author wants to sh*t on the novel MC.

So the outline for this novel goes main couple mini story -> novel character meets Mc-> system mission-> MC solves problem that either was part of the original novel, one that he created or one he interfered with and made worse thus needing to be solved -> repeat

This is very long but just understand it because the writing got worse around ch 45~ and I got very disappointed with it. <<less
