Synopsis
Legendary player Marvin transmigrated to the eve of the Great Calamity.
This was the end of the fourth era, all gods joined hands to destroy the Universe Magic Pool.
The fourth Fate Tablet had begun maturing and all gods, demons, legends, devils, liches, dragons and other legendary creatures were appearing one after the other.
In order to protect his loved ones, Marvin has no other choice but to delve into the shadows.
This is the story of a young ranger growing into the Ruler of the Night during the Chaos Era.
_________________________
TL: After transmigrating into a weak noble body, Marvin discovered that he was familiar with the world, this was the game he played in his previous life and... Damn! He only had six months before the Great Calamity!
As a former top player, he would obviously fight to save the world... Yeah, no. Time to plan and prepare for the upcoming events, better to use that knowledge to get ahead rather than fight with gods.
Follow Marvin's journey through this new world.

An action packed story about a more disturbed version of batman without the gadgets, so far, but willing to kill like an ice cold assasin. No hessitation to kill, must of been a lovely guy in his past life or already beleived he was his character like a real keyboard warrior, wasnt explained how old he was in past life but i guess either 8 years old living in mental hospital or a 45 year old mafia hitman
From Chapter 1-96, The story starts off with MC which undergoes transmigration into a game world that MC had played and completed. Similar premise novels include dungeon defence and the amber sword so liking those means this novel is for you. Firstly, the story's directions seems just like any other transmigrated/reincarnation novel which is in a strange environment, try to survive as much as possible while knowing the future/overpowered methods. This is how the novels are structured and it is done really well following the adventuring/questing format. While reading ,I find myself interested as there is noticeable progress by the MC in becoming strong through getting overpowered skills and epic items but the lack of variety to the story may make this novel stale or typical if you are looking for something unique. Although, there is signs of kingdom building but it is not yet happening. Score is 3.5 for fast and welldone story. The Character is somewhat lacking as well with the MC's history not being properly explained and how he got into the world itself is unknown and the personality of MC can be supercold in ways like murdering people without much thoughts and although he was a gamer, he don't seem like one with his kind of intellectual mind and him threatening other characters so easily. Side characters are sadly not as focus in the novel so it is only focusing on MC. There are some items that shows the stats and ability but it unused 99% of the time. Got potential but its 3.3 score. World background is 3.9 as it starts off interesting with how there is multiple species and gods alongside different places to visit. The world is going to undergo a cataclysm and MC is trying to survive. The powersystem or class is normal like an rpg but the MC seems to break much of the rule and I always wonder if the world is real or not because the the characters is living and breathing but must adhere to certain game rules or restrictions. The update stability is 4.0, 2 chapter a day so 14 chapter a week which is not slow but it will take awhile to reach the completed 820 chapters. The translation quality is really praiseworthy and the one keeping me from reading because it is really ****** to understand and there is no grammar issues so I can read at one go without hesitation . However, there is a censorship in one of the chapters I read and many information is lost so I did not understand for awhile but it is not the translator nor the author faults. So 4.8 score. Good Job Translator. Overall score is 3.9, above average.
no translator? hmmmm suspicious no editor? hmmmmm very suspicious english names? hmmmmm very suspicious indeed I dont know why but I feel like this is an english written novel, but then again, that username sense is propably chinese........ ah what the heck, I'm reading *adds to library*

Night Ranger is a reasonably competent tranmigration into a game world that is actually real. The best part of the story is easily the vivid combat scenes, which relies on a MMORPG sensibility to drive the action. The fast pacing and excellent translation make at times, this novel can be enjoyable, but unfortunately, the world is inescapably shallow, which even at the best of times prevents the novel from ever being truly great, and at the worst of times, drives the novel into frustrating places. The world is just like the game he played, except when it's not. The main character remembers everything about the game down to the fiddliest bit, except when it's convenient for him not to. The system seems in-depth, but ultimately is obviously contrived around the main character like his subclass which would make no sense as a main class. Skills that would be obviously stupid in a game are purported to have existed in the game, such as a near-instakill skill that makes the user weak for months. There are niggling details when the author tries to bring in plots into a video game world. The MC's father was murdered by a slow poisoning. Here's the problem: In this world, you can fairly trivially cast "Cure Poison" and "Divination". Over the months he was slowly getting sicker, why didn't his father visit a cleric? And after discovering he was being poisoned, it would have been trivial to find the culprit. I'm a hundred chapters in, and every single character introduced so far feels like a sock puppet for the MC to interact with. Nobody feels real, they're all just NPCs waiting around for the MC to show up. The villains, in particular, have all these contrived plans that involve trying to kill the MC, but they often seem pointless. For example, one mastermind spends an enormous amount of money plotting to kill the MC because he has a treasure map onto his land. I can't help but wonder why he simply didn't take a small adventuring party there and simply take it. We keep being told how smart the MC's actions are, but it's clear that without plot armor, he'd die pretty much every other day. He consistently, repeatedly putting himself in mortal danger time and time again, by choice. Yet there's never any sense of danger at all because the MC is a cocky perfect hero because he's played a lot of video games. He's never afraid of death even when he's inches from it, and even though we're told he feels pain, it doesn't seem that way. There is an incredible amount of telling instead of showing. Worse, people know things they shouldn't. The MC concludes that other people don't gain experience for getting kills, but he literally just assumes that without any testing whatsoever. Some mook knows instantly the incredibly rare class of the MC (literally only 18 other people in the world with the class), but then a far more powerful, older, guy with far more access to knowledge has no idea what he is like two chapters later. For some bizzarre reason, despite seers with future sight knowing a world-shaking calamity is coming, they forget to tell anyone. The MC has a cross between xianxia and video game morals. One second he's thoughtlessly murdering mooks, the next he's sparing somebody who's betrayed him. Why? Because they're plot-centric. The MC keeps saying he doesn't kill pointlessly, but he does. All the time. Then the author tries to show him as ruthless, but it mostly just makes him evil and possibly insane. The MC looks at somebody and senses that they have strange eyes, so he kills them. Then he kills some peasant for giving him lip. Well, maybe they weren't a peasant, maybe he was a spy. Who knows? Not like the MC is going to bother to check when he mysteriously just knows. When it comes down to it, the MC sees people as bags of experience and loot. When his class trainer says "Okay, for the next step in your training, I need you to murder these five thieves that are pretty annoying because uh, they'll show off your night murdering skills" he doesn't stop and think "wait, is pick-pocketing really a capital crime?" Nope, he's got a quest to kill 5 people, so he kills 5 people. Amusing, since he later gets ragingly mad at someone else who is killing people to fulfill their advancement. I'm often frustrated by MCs that try to bring in modern world morality into brutish and violent worlds, but in this case, the MC shows less regard for human life than serial killers. His kill counts exceed that of most of the villains in the story, and include innocents, guards, and children. Bizzarrely, every day citizens expect him to be punished because in civilization there's clearly rule of law, but he routinely gets away with murder. You might say, "Might Makes Right", but he's really not that strong in the grand scheme of things compared to the ruling powers trying to keep order. Somehow, every possible authority figure that in all reasonableness would see him hang, coincidentally befriends him or has something they want from him and they don't even admonish him for his killing sprees. This is partially explained by the reliance on law enforcement on divination spells which are failing, but it simply isn't enough. The author wants us to believe he's decisive and bad-ass by going from zero to murder in less than a second, but this just makes him a short-tempered, idiotic murderer who only gets away with it because of plot armor. Let's talk about plot armor. MC shows up at what is essentially Hogwarts, where the story has tried very hard to establish that virtually any wizard with a brain could kill him at whim. Unsurprisingly, there are rules against murdering wizards in Hogwarts. So, some nub wizard, let's call him Draco, slanders him, so the MC murders Draco and his guards, in full view of, well, everybody. Keep in mind, Draco's probably like 10. Now, dead 10-year old wizard is part of an incredibly important family, lets call them the Malfoys, so understandably they're peeved, not to mention it's definitely a capital offense to casually murder the receptionist at Hogwarts. But not to fear, the MC isn't a bad guy, after all, Draco started it. Yeah, that's pretty much his excuse. Let's recall that virtually any Hogwarts student can kill him, much less their parents. So well, fat lotta good "he started it" it is going to do him, you can't get away with murdering 10-year old Draco Malfoy at Hogwarts. Fortunately, the MC's great-grand father was a wizard, and he has a fancy wizard medal, which means the MC can't be summarily avada kevadra'd, but instead he has to be arbitrated. The Malfoys roll their eyes, and give him a sham trial, fully intending to lock him away in wizard prison and arrange for an "accident" to occur. But wait! Dumbledore was there all along! MC had literally no plan to get out of this predicament when he killed the guy for giggles, but after he finished killing him, he was like "oh hey, there's Dumbledore in his little girl form". So Dumbledore saves his ass. Have I mentioned the MC is stupid? Well, whatever, that happened. But it's not like the Malfoys are going to take little Draco being murdered lying down. They're an incredibly powerful wizard clan, and they can squish MC like a bug. But suddenly they decide they have to do so honorably, by uh, openly killing him dring the Tri-Wizard tournament by sneaking in an insane hermaphroditic killer into it instead of, I dunno, Draco's father teleporting to his house and melting his face off before dinner. Well, anyway, it doesn't work, but it's not like they still can't squish him like a bug. Fortunately, a volcano blows up and wakes up a dragon that has been sleeping for millenia and kills their entire family. All according to keikaku. Well, it's still a fairly enjoyable read despite its faults. I'd recommend to give it a try and see if you can get past it's shallowness and simply enjoy it as a decent system game transmigration with awesome fight scenes.

After reading up to chapter 220, I can say that this story is the uncrowned number one novel on this website. The writing is very well done with a very satisfying flow and pace. There are no fillers and no repetition. Each chapter is a delight to read and the source of incrutiating pain (because we have to wait for the next chapter). The world building unravels as the story progresses and it makes sense. There is some plot armor but it is very light armor as it is justified by the previous knowledge of MC. The enemies don't talk for the sake of talking and there is no stupid evil person offending the MC with no concrete benefit unlike many other stories. The translation quality is top notch and is stable. We wish there would be one or two more chapters per week but hey, we can't have everything we want in life I guess. Overall, I can't wait to read more and wish to thank everyone involved in bringing this magnificent story to all of us. Much love from Algeria!
First off, I really appreciate the high quality translation done on this novel! I like being able to seemlessly read through the novel without wondering about grammar mistakes or seeing excessive translation notes that interrupt the flow of the novel. The novel started off differently than I expected and has been progressing quite well. There is a lot to wonder about in the novel, and I’m always excited about each new chapter. I’m pulled into the world created by the author and the plot that revolves around the main character. I look forward to each update on this novel!
Total and utter DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!!!!!!! That it was to dang fww in chapters!!!!! OMFG hurry and translate more hahahaha. Careful when reading this novel cause it will suck you in like a tornado in the middle of a trailer park hahaha. Great intro amd the flow of the story is also really great. Not much pointless filler. Its like a good movie keeps you dang occupied!!!!! Ended up reading thru the night jezzzz. Anyways super worth it must must read.

Was an alright novel up until it went premium and you can't read any more of it. Now its just pay to read any more of it and I can't get behind that I'm done with it.
Untrustworthy translator. In chapter 660 he replaced text to make political commentary and political remarks on current modern politics, even though the MC's origins take place in our distant future. Not only did this break the immersion the author tried to immerse us in, but the original RAW also did not include any of this. Whoever was responsible for adding this-- you, your editors or someone else. you allowed it to stay thus unnecessarily painting a bad light on this entire novel. I read fantasy to get away from the real world not so I can be engaged in it.
What is this thingy? This novel seems weird; at least the stuff I saw on the synopsis. How did this suddenly get added? Well, whatever, new book 😀.
DO NOT READ THIS BOOK! The ending of this story is rushed/non-existent because it says he leaves to find a solution and multiple plots are left completely untouched including situation/background of his pet, allies, how the hell his bloodline affects the story and at the end one of the plots which was an obvious flag for an intense arc is suddenly cut out when the involved dude says, "Hey I've conquered 7/9 of what I said and even my clone is as strong as you so now obviously I'm going to stay right here and never appear in the story because there's like 5 more chapters to go and my intentions of doing what I did so far". In fact, there are too many things to criticise at the end. I LOVED THE WAY THE STORY WAS PROGRESSING but the ending will make you feel very disappointed and is a waste of time!
one thing i love in this world is that there are things that can be enjoyed even without money. But this premium **** is too much you know. So f this novel and the worst part is that i actually like this but now its I see it as a trash
Heck the summery is strange but meh whatever I just here to get xp and new book so might as well read it..............................................
Don't let my total score fool you, I would've given it a 0 if I let my my emotions control me. I managed to get 33 chapters in and it does have some very minor likable aspects, but mostly it's your generic anti-hero story. And that's its only redeeming quality as far as I'm concerned, everything else was trash. For example, he kills, but never the good guys. He'll mope and deny being a good person while going out of his way to save even the most ambiguously good characters. You'd assume a person who became some kind of God of Assassins wouldn't be super moral, but whatever... It's a story that got its toes wet in the anti-hero genre but wasn't willing to commit. The problems are not always that obvious though, the author tries to be clever sometimes and does things like twisting the mc wearing a mask into some kind of tactic to inspire fear in his enemies(instead of a reasonable desire like hiding his identity). But these are enemies who he'll take off his mask off for which puts them at ease the very moment he decides to finally make his move. The "Fear" he inspired served no purpose, being thrown away casually at the important moments and even leading to his enemies hiring more muscle. But no, he wore a mask to inspire fear and not because he's worried about being identified. What kind of b*tch made loser cares about that kind of thing right? He'll also have this so called "expert" make ******* mistakes like hiding from people he should know he can't hide from, or turning fights that should leverage his skill and experience into predictable fights of attrition or some kind of retarded willpower d*ck measuring contest. He'll walk into death traps he's been to before and not bring good holy water(Makes sense if you've read it)... He had money, he knew he needed holy water, and he had means to get holy water. But he won't buy any and will instead complain about not having good holy water. Basically, expect his past experiences to mean nothing and for his supposed wisdom to be nerfed the very moment it's convenient to do so. When he's out doing stuff he'll bump into women in distress without f*cking fail. Whether that be little girls, slave girls, swindlers who's intentions he doesn't know, etc. Doesn't matter what he's doing or where he is, even if he's in the middle of a troll infested forest he'll somehow meet a girl. The author seems to think that by default anything that has breasts is innocent. The mc doesn't give men the benefit of the doubt, he'll just cut your f*cking throat and be done with you. But a girl who's lied and swindled your family before? One who's been thrown in an actual prison for her crimes? This total stranger who just so happens to be a girl? "She just hasn't 'found' herself yet" is what the story will try and tell you lol. And potentially worst of all... Drum roll please... He actually thinks a Ranger class is a Jack of all trades class! Like what the actual f*ck Mr. author? I'm dead serious, the main character is a Ranger and he hasn't so much as looked at a bow and arrow. He instead runs forward and fights his enemies close up like a good little assassin with his twin daggers and various other assassin skills/tactics. And it all makes sense in the authors tiny mind because the Ranger class is a Jack of all trades class! Forget stuff like traps, good long distance eyesight, horse back riding, bow and arrow skills, tracking, etc. A ranger doesn't need those things, and in fact the mc will disdain the very idea, nay, the very concept of learning those skills. He will instead run around acting 100% like an assassin and you're fully expected to believe he's a Ranger. Again, like what the actual f*ck? You played yourself Mr. Author. *Hands over door hinges* P.S. Bonus points for whoever got that last bit :)
A good reincarnation novel, with a stable plot (ch. 40s). For those who hate vr, don't worry, this is not it. **. Have you ever had a dream that you, um, you had, your, you- you could, you’ll do, you- you wants, you, you could do so, you- you’ll do, you could- you, you want, you want them to do you so much you could do anything?
Its really discouraging to see this novel becoming premium. And here i thought the translator claim to be an avid reader. I loved this novel and was the only one i enjoyed on this site. Dropping this as of this moment. The premium system is complete utter BS.
Hey! I'm the translator, Shiraishi. Since I'm also limited to 140 characters, I'll only say this. I hope you enjoy the story, and if you have any issue, don't hesitate to leave a comment.
