Synopsis: It’s the era of Transmigration.

I wanted to possess a body of a rich young lady in a Rofan childcare novel, and live while receiving lots of love.

No. 1 to be avoided!

No. 1 in frustrating the reader!

I possessed someone inside an infinite return novel called: Return Until the World is Saved.

Forget being a young lady from a prominent family, I will soon be ruined because the survival difficulty of the original work is S-Class.

I became an extra. Ailette, the young daughter of a servant in the Count’s manor.

We are poor, but it’s a happy life between a kind brother and a good father.

I’ve got a best friend I’ve never made before because I was always busy.

Even the gods of the Transmigration Management Bureau are openly fond of me.

I’m living a life full of confidence.

On top of that, I accidentally bought the ‘After-Life Insurance’ full package just before my death.

I leveled up with the high-speed growth buff, and diligently destroyed the original plot.

Thanks to plenty of special privileges, I came to give satisfaction for all the frustrated readers of the original work.

“You wiped your face with your dirty hands.”

“…….”

“Don’t be surprised. It’s because I have an obligation to be kind.”

And then, there’s the protagonist who is still nothing more than a handsome push over, Thesilid.

‘Why is he being this crafty with me?’

My Review: I love the ML, but I am the biggest simp for the heroine. Literally, no one else can compare to her. She's got the top place in my heart as the best KR MC out there and that's a position that I know will not change anytime soon. Shockingly enough, despite having such star studded characters, what really made this novel shine for me is the story.

I fell in love with this novel from the very first chapter and it stayed that way until the very last chapter, even though I read it as MTL. Even now, I wish I could read this novel for the very first time so I can live those feelings of anticipation and excitement all over again. I'm waiting for the translations to be completed so I can re-read it properly this time. This novel is THE BEST KR Isekai novel I've ever read, and that's saying A LOT! <<less

Synopsis: While working overtime through several nights, he fell asleep for a short while. When he woke up, he seemed to be possessing the villain of the webnovel he was reading.

“Well, how typically cliché… to the point where I’d end up dead if I were to follow the predetermined fate. Darn it.”

He need to find a way to survive.

The first way to survive as a good-for-nothing villain in the webnovel.“Convince as many people as possible to be on my side.”

The second way to survive as a good-for-nothing villain in the webnovel.“Become strong enough to protect myself.”

Lastly, the third way to survive as a good-for-nothing villain in the webnovel.“Never become friendly with that proud and insane ‘Returnee Master’.”

But what should he do?Even before he possessed the body, the original owner already caused an incident.

“Use your money to kill the ‘Returnee Master’ who has yet to regain his power? Are you crazy? Then who will stop the Demon King?”

This is the beginning of the modern-day survival + dungeon-raider fantasy story of Choi YuSeong, the possessed villain who wants to live a laid-back lifestyle!

My Review: It's so good that I literally blanked out for 6+ hours while reading it. I started at 2pm and before I knew it, I was at chapter 60 and it was 8pm... And this rarely happens to me unless the novel is just that great, which in this case, it is! Words aren't enough to describe just how much I love MC! The way he thinks, omg! I love calculative MCs with a gentle external disposition and this MC hits all the marks flawlessly! He's one of my top 5 MCs of all time and that's a REALLY hard list to get into.

As for the story, it's a transmigration novel with a story based in the real world both pre and post transmigration, except MC's new world has dungeons and gods that sponsor powerful awakened individuals, similar to ORV but still, VERY different! The story keeps you hooked and leaves you wanting for more. It's hard to put this novel down once you've started reading it. At least, that was the case for me. I'm waiting to read the ending which will be updating soon, but even without knowing how it ends yet, I can't recommend this story enough! <<less

Synopsis: His friend and his wife betrayed him. The only thing left to him was his massive debt and his precious daughter. He was without hope as he lived at the bottom. However, a last chance had come to Sungyoon. He was a ‘man without a heartbeat’, and he will explore the Moon’s Labyrinth. He’ll explore the parts of the dungeon yet to be seen!

My Review: The biggest plus of this novel is definitely its writing. The way the author describes certain scenarios, the execution, the visual aspect... it's like actually pulling you into the moment and giving you a vivid glance into the world that the author has created. In fact, some of these descriptions are just mesmerizing and the translators played a huge role in that, so kudos to them!

Besides the writing style, I love the world building of this story. A lot of novels, once they start to dig into the background of the world they're set in, you may end up with more plot holes than answers. That is not the case with this novel, at least in my opinion. Also, the MC doesn't start out OP. It takes him time, and a lot of luck to get there, the latter being no shocker (although I'm not complaining at all, since the circumstances weren't unreasonable). I also really like how the author presented the MC's trauma as well as his distrust towards general people after all the sh*t he went through. Not to mention, his devotion to his daughter is so wholesome and heart-warming.

By the way, I really like the harem in this novel. Warning: This novel supports polygamy so it may not be your cup of tea. I felt quite iffy about it too, but I tried not to let my morals judge the story and eventually I just took it for face value. I mean, all these heroines are happy with it so who am I to complain? I guess the biggest reason why I could be completely okay with it is the fact that the author did not hold back in giving each of the heroine individual goals and characteristics, as well as, actual personalities, rather than the usual cliché harem line-ups.

Overall, the author did a great job with this story and I highly recommend! <<less
