    This is click bait. Some novels here have late romance or early romance tag. No matter how little it's still romance. I haven't checked everything but I think there's also some that have romantic-subplot.

      Which ones have late romance? I Know release that witch has some romantic subplot towards the end but honestly despite the title this list isn’t one completely devoid of romance; it’s just that it isn’t included as a main part of the story arc at all and doesn’t add to the reading experience so i didn’t bother to really count it. If i created a list with truly 0 romantic subplot the list would just consist of 90% ongoing novels that haven’t actually reached a point where the climax has passed, and a love interest is magicked out of the air for the MC like a lot tend to do in the end. Also i haven’t actually read/completed all these novels so it’s half a list just for myself as future reference as what i wanna check out.

      @_Knightingale I guess Legendary Mechanic has late romance, but it's nothing excessive.

      @NovelDao-Seeker ooh okay, I’ve only gotten 900 or so chapters through TLM so I hadn’t known that. Would you say it’s to the point it should be removed from the list or…? I don’t mind either way rlly.

      @_Knightingale Well, what you said can be acceptable for most fantasy/action novel readers out there. 

      However, I am a reader who's going out of my way to look for a "no romance" story — instead of any novels that has "fantasy/action" genre. And what stemmed my requirement for "no romance" is because of awful stories where MC's partner exist just for the sake of it. It just leaves a bad taste in my mouth no matter how insignificant the romance in the story is. If there's barely any romance in it, why can't the author simply eradicate it completely from the story? Its like that stain or dirt in your perfectly white shirt that can't be removed no matter what you do. 

      Basically, it makes it unpleasant to read. Novels that have 0% romance is just different. 

      I think you've read Chronicles of Primordial Wars already. There's novels also like LOTM that you listed or Reverend Insanity. I'm not asking for such novels with high rating. I'm just looking for that environment free from MC's ambiguous relationships or situations where some characters are inevitably treated like potential love interest. Zero/nada/zilch romance. 

      Edit: Now that I thought about it, I think "no romance" is simply a completely different genre. So, it's wrong for me to compare it to others like how I did in the 2nd paragraph. But I'm too lazy and tired to rewrite what I said so here you go. 

      Also, I checked the list again, here's the novels I saw that have something-related-to-romance tags in them: World of cultivation, Legendary Mechanic, Release that witch, Sword pilgrim, SSS-Class su*cide Hunter (can't double check it anymore Imma go sleep now bye).

      @_Knightingale It's mostly done in the background, so it should be good to stay here.

    Doesn't Solo Leveling and SSS Class su*cide Hunter have romance?

      Oh do they? Tbh it has been ages since I’ve read solo leveling and although i remember there was that other hunter girl that had a thing for him i couldn’t remember that it was reciprocated? And I’m not that far into SSS so that’s my bad. I’ll remove them both now tho for consistency.
