• The leads are phenomenal. In some ways it feels like they're a mass of contradictions but that's what makes them oh so real. Both are mentally and emotionally tenacious enough to get pass hurdles that would crush most people but secretly vulnerable and in need of love and companionship just like anyone else. Neither are OP because they're both capable in some ways but helpless in others. What is most admirable is that they're kind-hearted at their core and steadfast in their morals so even when it seems like the world is full of darkness, you know they'll fight to rectify it. Outside of the leads the two systems are hilarious and provide much needed comic relief.
• The world building is incredibly intricate, complex and unique. You can tell that the author created each world with much care and consideration because each feels like a hyper realistic dystopian nightmare and the inhabitants of each world are fully fleshed out no matter where they stand morally. Each world has its own set of history, politics, and cultural norms and there isn't much overlap with other stories even if the initial premise of "rescuing a designated target" is cliche.
• The author is exceptional at crafting mysteries and creating a heightened sense of suspense. The tension in each arc had me nearly chewing my fingernails clean off. In every arc the leads get caught in some grand evil conspiracy that they have to slowly unpack and overcome in order to survive and live with dignity. The difficulty level is always in hell mode and even when success looks like it's right around the corner, something will happen that'll make the leads doubt everything. The story has many insane twists but they're never illogical as the author is a master at pacing and giving us the right amount of information at the right time.

• Like I said, sometimes this story gets so dark and heavy that it's hard to continue reading. A lot of the subject matter could also be triggering for some people. The second arc personally gutted me the most because it was the closest to our modern world. In response to the despair in each world, the leads often cry which could be unappealing for some as well.
• The MC spends most of the time in each arc as an inanimate object, that may or may not have a humanoid form, and sometimes before he regains his human body, him and the ML have already established a romantic relationship. In some occasions this leads to them engaging in adult behaviours before the MC has a human form
  It could also bother some that the MC and his system are very liberal about bedroom matters and can appear really thirsty at times.

• Not all parents should be parents and not all parents love their children
• Technology is dangerous when its use is left unchecked
• Being overexposed to depictions of s*x and violence leads to emotional indifference, an increase in criminal activity, and eventual social instability
• The police are righteous and well-intended but not always competent
• Power imbalances often leads to discrimination and exploitation
• People need companionship and a sense of belonging to be mentally healthy

Ex-General Beta Gong x Small Toy Robot Shou

- ABO world where beta's are discriminated against. ML was the protagonist of a no-CP world who disguised himself as a beta to join the military, before being banished to a barren planet full of criminals and exiles when his identity was exposed.

- MC eventually acquires a human form. MC is a gay bottom who's read/watched his fair share of p*rn and isn't afraid to admit it lol

- ML actually shows emotions (crying, happiness, possessiveness, anger). He's not just an eternally stoic ice block.

- System is likewise not an emotionless machine and has personality

- Non-explicit, implied s*xual activity

su*cide, su*cide Attempt, Cyber Bullying, pe*ophilia, Child Abuse

Our MC doesn't experience the tragic stuff that happend in each world, the ML experience them but when MC arrives, it becomes a healing experience for the both of them♡

It's a happy ending!

The dynamic of the system judging MC to be fair and harmless even with His cobra tattoo and dyed hair is also pretty funny. Their interactions remind me of ones from Urban Legend and The Villain Has Been Coveting.

The system was probably a part-time employee at some shady place before. If you disqualify its current job. Sometimes it acts like a reliable big brother, other times its just this creepy friend too much invested in the CP it follows and MC's s*x life. But System is System, if someone dislikes the System, then you are outside of my Friendly System.

Hahahaha even in the world of Gods and Demons, ML is still ML. MC thinks he is fake ice block, what he doesnt know, is that that treatment is very much a reserved quality available to ML's Wife. But at the same time, Male Lead is like a deep fried Tofu Block, Crispy outside, Soft inside, Maybe a water melon? He cares about others very much. Even when people misunderstands him, instead of blackening, he just beats himself up for things, and sometimes even takes stuff out on MC. Which is dislikable. If there is the character Zhe in a characters name, Understand that that is ML. I dont like him as much I like system though.

Systems Boss [Male leads system] "Our's is not a black company"

Cool and mysterious, the systems wife. Ml's system. He can only be described as cool and cool, domineering and smooth.

And they are! MC's antics sometimes make me go 'WOW' other times he makes me feel sad and soft inside, if ML is a fried tofu, MC is a Bomb Blast candy, he is also a soft stretchy Mochi. He has very low self-worth, which improves a little later. He is kind of like a therapist friend, if he can see and solve other's problems, why not his own? I like MC's wilfulness of standing by his Yan-ge's side, but also he makes me angry at the ML and himself. He is playful at times, and while he was very badass in character before, and still is, once ML appears he goes docile. Typical of QT, but MC is still likable as a character. I feel like, we don't know much of the MC yet even though his background story has already been revealed.

Other side characters that are mentioned in the story are also quite dynamic. They don't stick around for too long though. So it's better not to get too attached to them.

He cries. I love it coz that's such a rare thing for mls in novels and it makes me feel more about his circumstance

feels short. Especially in the fourth arc I kinda want to see more about the evil guys getting their retribution and also I wanted more story of the npc protagonist of the fourth arc. I just feel bad for him. Poor guy didn't deserve that life: (.

MC is like a slime thingy. And I really love it coz this is the first time I've read where the ML did MC in slime form haha.

it's HE! :)). Also super satisfying to know the explanation why MC transmigrates to help ml.

MC and ML became kids to re-live the life of MC and turn his unhappy past to happy memories

It's only explained that the ML world is a higher world where humans and systems can coexist, and that's it.

ML, Shen Lianzhe, was schemed against by the new president. ML was sent to MC's original world to "ensure that the original plot can run smoothly" but MC's small world was illegally created to trap ML into breaking the law.

ML was suppose to only observe but ML had grown attached to MC since he watched him since he was a baby. ML interceded and prevented many horrible things from happening to MC. These intercessions were against the law so ML was sent to the punishment world. During this time, ML had already fallen in love with MC.

ML had his own system (let's call it Boss). ML asked Boss to watch over and protect MC while ML was in the punishment world. Boss then removed MC from his world and found a naive system to bond with MC. Boss then sent them to ML's punishment world to help ML... also hoping that MC will fall in love with ML.

Then Boss, regrouped ML's subordinates, overthrew the new president, and rescued the couple. All this was in the background while the main story covered the details of the punishment worlds.
