Leo Lock, a reading addict with the ability to truly 'read' books, never really fit in his boring 'normal' world. However, everything changed when an unknown voice found its way to his head!

Fainting only to find himself in the body of a character from a fantasy novel he once read upon waking up, Leo barely processed his new reality before he was thrown into another whirlpool.

[Role: Reader]
[Target: Reach the Epilogue.]

The only lead he had about his 'transmigration' didn’t speak much! Even the character he took over already had a foot in the coffin! How was he supposed to survive that long? Why did he have to become the protagonist’s brother?!

Moreover, what was this Personal Book supposed to be? Reading Attributes? Points?

Follow Leo as he experiences the true life of a reader in a fantasy book, facing expected challenges, and encountering all kinds of 'new'…

Would he manage to go back and find out the reason behind his 'transmigration'? Was that even his purpose? Or was this nothing but the start of a much bigger change beyond the scope of his understanding…?

***

First Volume: The Sword Master’s Second Life
Second Volume: Murim Supremacy

Note: Yes, Leo starts out with a sword, but that isn’t the limit to his choice of weapons! Collapse

    It's a good novel but could be much better if the author have some more experience before wrote this book. Because the concept of the
    book is metalanguage you need some more attention for the nuances and details that an new author may not have. My opinion

    Hi, author here. So yeah, for those wondering how to read more of my lacking book, you can still read for free using fast passes at webnovel. I know this isn't optimal for a lot of people, but I hope you can continue to enjoy the book that way. >.> Cheers!

    For those wondering whether to read this or not, it's basically an infinity version of novel-insert novels. The pacing can be slow or fast at points, but I at least try to keep to the concept of a relatively smart mc. For those who like that kind of novels, feel free to give this a try!

    Review as of 197 chapters:
    This novel is very similar to fantasy simulator. The MC lives in main world and travels to various fantasy worlds and gains skills and attributes. These fantasy world are from fictional novels.

    The pace of the both stories is very similar. But, the main world of MC has had less screentime, compared to Fantasy simulator (beginning).

    Here the MC also has a 'reading' system. Its a typical system with slightly different names, like, spacial storage is 'reading space', skill proficiency is defined as chapter x/10.

    Till now the story has been interesting. The main world of MC also has possibilities of further plot development.

    Overall: 4/5 ⭐

        Yh i had that same problem with people commenting on kingdoms bloodline. The guy is obviously an adult reincarnated as a child yet half the negative comments were about the MC being a child even 200 chapters in.

          It's not his body, it's the body of the 'character' he's in. Mc's main body is 19 i believe, however his mental age is above that.

        Like 48 hours a day, Reincarnation Paradise, Thriller Park, Devil's Cage. The mc travels or is sent to different worlds w/ a different identity and is given missions.

          Similar novels where the MC travels to different worlds to complete missions are:
          Nightmare's call(on Hiatus i think gud stuff tho), My house of horrors ( horror genre kinda thang), The ultimate evolution( very similar to the devil's cage but pirate edition and apparently a spin off of the Reincarnation paradise even though already had 1460 chaps), Fantasy simulator, Infinite survival I can plunder passive skills( a combination of broken pick up system novels and the so called infinite genre).
          Enjoy

            Ultimate evolution is a spin off of terror infinity.. Terror infinity also is good if they just don't keep dying permanently.

          thanks for the recommendation. I have read almost all the ones you have mentioned but here are some that are not on the list.

          Mystical Journey, this one honestly is very good, the mc character is not the best but the novel is very good.

          Fantasy Simlouter, this one is a super good novel it is truly an amazing one. Unfortunately, after chapter 400, it is mtl edited by a human.

          Only I AM A Reader, the start was mediocre and a little slow but after chapter 50 it is super interesting and the quality of the novel will reach a high level.

          I really hope for you to share your all-time favourite novels that you finished.

          My top 7 novels of all time:
          1. The legendary Mechanic
          2. New Game+
          3. 48 hours a Day
          4. The world after the fall
          5. I have a super USB drive
          6. God of Money
          7. Losing money to be a tycoon

    Fantasy Simulator: Light Version
    Basically its just the much more light and happy go lucky version of fantasy Simulator, an easy way to show is how each simul ends, in Fantasy we go all the way till he dies, the emotional impact of the people dying around him, and mc finally taking his last breath in that world, here he just... "Well I beat the baddie, now I go back" and he just leaves. The world in Fantasy is a lot more grim, I mean if you read what happens to his original world, you know what I mean, here on the other hand it's quite sunshine and rainbows.
