/ Fantasy / Nameless Hypocrite

Ringkasan
"Bastard, surrender yourself!"
"You think you can escape our encirclement?!"
"An omnicidal fiend like you can only atone in death!"
Despite his precarious situation, a young man ignored the union's provocations! His violet robe was in tatters, showing the incredible number of attacks he received, yet there was no sign of injury at all. Noticing the wicked smile tugging at his lips, the pursuing heroes warily watched him, cautious of a final attack. It was only by working together that they could corner a monster like him.
An arrow pierced the air, beelining towards the young man. A malicious gleam revealed itself in his eyes! He unsheathed his sword, a long, curved blade, and deflected the projectile, spiking it into the ground. The archer's eyes widened before being split in two. He died suddenly and indignantly. The group backed away; their former confidence diminished greatly by the invisible counter. It was then that the young man sighed, his voice full of lament and self-pity.
"Being a saint truly is difficult, even the world cannot understand my righteous actions."
The expressions of the surrounding heroes turned ugly. Such blatant hypocrisy!

Yes, the protagonist is a villain. We don't do morals here.

Tulis ulasanI very much like that this starts with Eight already in deep trouble. And some of his responses to his situation are really strong, like: "...he knew he wouldn’t last many more weeks of this menial work. He needed to escape, but he could only wait for the right opportunity. There was a difference between escape and freedom." (I love that last line.) I'm not sure 'brick' is the right word. To me a brick is small. Maybe 'slab?' Stone slab? I know this is a villain's story, but I stil wonder if a few moments of softness wouldn't actually make it more effective--including more effectively villainous. I like the tension between the use of 'planet,' which implies sf and 'mana-core,' which implies fantasy. Makes me want to keep reading to find out where exactly we are! Oh, and 'trading injury for injury' is a grippy concept. I don't know if you develop it but it definitely sparks my curiosity!
Great book, shows the mc with a single objective, to reach immortality, whether killing, betraying or any other method that makes him take another step towards the path of immortality.
Most of my reviews are 1 star. This is the only story on wn that I can actually respect because it is different. The MC is different, the story is different and by that I mean really different. Most writers here only know how to write thirsty, beta male, losers like they are, the MC of this story is nothing like that. 4 stars because 5 is spam.
Im not good at writing reviews, but i would still say that this is my favorite novel, everything is perfect about it, the most notable aspect is how rational the mc is, he is unique, rational, calculative... and the list goes on. for those who want to read a novel with a rational mc, this fanfic certainly doesn't disappoint.

An interesting spin on the "suddenly have powers" litrpg trope mixed with a deep lore and worldbuilding and a characters who is many. The style itself if where my main gripes come from. As much as I love the internal though process of Eight mixed with amazing detail and description, the segue between chapters has a tendency to leave me with a bit of confusion. It might just be me, honestly, but I feel like I need to go back and double check what I already read to make sure I know where the story is going. Grammar is solid. Sentences work well as structured. Punctuation and spelling is on point. Plus, based on comments that corrected things, the author is keen to fix. The story itself is wonderful. As I said earlier, the author takes common tropes of litrpg and chose a power set that is rare if not unique. It puts a great spin on the genre. Paired with a backstory for the main character, and a clear path to where it's going and you've got the makings of a great fic. Eight makes a great main character. He has a clear background while also clear cut motivations and desires moving forward into the fic. With his new power, he is going down the path of evil, which I love and actually makes sense because it means he's not too villainous. Overall, this is a solid story with a lot of potential. Pretty excited to see how it will go and the author seems to have a great grasp on what they have here. My own gripes are personal opinions more than anything, and even then, it's nothing that can't be overlooked.
