The Villain's Side of the Novel by Fri123

the spelling and grammar is atrocious the spelling is good but more often then not it's like 2 sentences meshed into one IE: "While John was thinking about a solution, his sister alicwas in the midst oanother of her freqnightmares. this time howethe nightmare in question was one where Johbecame a wordestroying villain who after 10years succedestroyed the world." this is pretty much the mish mash of words I'm seeing all over the first 50 off chapters.

Don't bother with this one, with the author pace its no different than being dropped

A reader waiting for a new chapter of this beautiful work.

Writing this review at chapter 167:

Brief summary:


MC is not a villain, he is more of an anti-hero. He is very attached to people around him (or at least starts to attach great care/importance to people around him by ch100 ).
This is kinda disappointing and leaves an annoying and bad aftertaste since MC was introduced as someone ruthless and cold during the first 50ch and then he suddenly changes. There is also a cliche love triangle between MC, Luke(original protagonist), and one of his harem members (MC's crush). Although the author said that MC doesn't care much about her, She is mentioned every time when there is a scene between MC and Luck and to top that up, it also has some flashbacks between the three when they were in the academy.

It was a good novel during the first 50 chapters with immense potential. The author clearly gave a lot of thought in the beginning in order to ignore cliches and he was fairly successful. The problem starts from ~chapter 100 where the story almost became stagnant with little to no development in the plot. It became even more annoying after ch ~150 where the author started filling 10 chapters with the same scene from different POVs. The author also leaves many empty plot openings to fill them up in the future but seeing the pace novel is going, it will take forever.

It could be great, but simply isnt
Some parts feel like filler
And to me it feels like it got worse after 100 or so chapters
Author overexplains simple actions of mob characters now
Lack sustance when its trying to be grand
Middle of the pack on webnovels in everything, nothing is helping it to shine

Too many misspellings and MC doesn't show mature attributes of an old man just a flustered MC even after preparation

Interesting story but shallow writing with occasional mistakes

INTERESTING!!

Got to ch 40.

Stories okay to kill some time. Its very shallow with its characters where it kinda goes from event to event but if you like the idea of a mc who makes use of future knowledge and the power fantasy that comes with these types of regression novels than its readable (Why I read it at least). There's some mystery with the world and the power system but at least for now its like most average novels where they only explain to you why something exists as it appears without any real framework.

My biggest issue with it is how hard it is to read as the writer is probably not a native English reader/writer so there's lots of weird flow issues due to misspelled/placed words which kills it for me. Would give it like a 3.5 as the beginning hooked me enough to read it but having no proofreader holds it back as the earlier stuff about the story could be overlooked a little if it was better structured.

at most rank C-
