诡秘之主 (new)

Hello there, fellow brethern and followers of the Fool!

As a prime believer of God (you know, the Almighty), I would inquire you to give me some novels that are as dark as this one, in which hope may not even exist. Have anything in store?

Hey guys I am currently thinking of reading LOTM but since there is anime I thought I would first watch anime and then continue reading novel but in comment section of anime I heard many people saying that there are many scenes which are cut from the novel. I don't care I will read novel if some scenes are cut in anime so guys tell me should I start anime or novel?

This book... I really want to like it but I just can't seem to continue to it. So much information dump. Somebody tell me how to like it.

‎So let me get this straight: we start with a Chinese otaku whose sense of selflessness is directly proportional to his phone battery and willingness to share dumplings with his imaginary girlfriend.

Then boom—transmigration hits, and suddenly he’s the second coming of Christ, ready to martyr himself for strangers on a foreign planet he doesn’t even recognize as Earth yet?
‎
‎That’s not character growth. That’s a personality transplant.
‎
‎And don’t tell me it’s the suicidal original Klein either. That guy had a completely different psychological profile. This isn’t a fusion—it’s a narrative hijack.
‎
‎What’s worse, it’s not just him. Roselle, Franca, even Lumian—the sadistic prankster who gets his kicks from humiliating others—suddenly sprout halos and start waxing poetic about sacrifice and justice. It’s like every POV character got infected with the same moral virus.
‎
‎I’ve never seen a bully’s redemption arc kick in before the guilt, trauma, or even basic self-awareness. Lumian turning selfless is especially rich. That’s like Joker substituting as Batman for a day so Bruce Wayne can visit his parents’ graves.
‎
‎To put it gently: this isn’t character development. It’s authorial wish fulfillment duct-taped to a plot outline. And if this is the result of AI-assisted writing, then maybe the AI needs a firmware update—or the author needs to stop outsourcing their soul.
‎
‎Let me put it in milder words to not be too offensive to the author.
‎Your writing sucks and you're a stupid imbecile relying on AI to write for you

hello completed this webnovel , it was fun ride it went up from volume 3rd , especially volume 5 but from volume 3 it was good , i personally find it hard to read volume 1 and 2 but their ending was great so maybe it cancels out ,
if you are wanting to read this novel i would suggest you to get better at imagining cuz after reading 3 novels i still find this one hard to imagine fight scenes maybe its cuz of translation or maybe its just that hard
but if you have little bit of patience and likes slow burn , dark victorian era, can imagine very complex scenes this novel would be top the chart , i personally didnt find it best of the best but i can say thats because of me it was hard to understand complex fight scenes and its not just me you will realise many people are commenting the same that what is even happening and the other downside of this novel for me is- something will happen for 100s of chapter you will say why is mc even doing this and all . he will do many small matters that by the end of it will come together and merge as a big plot its good point but also negative because for a long time you wont even understand why is mc even doing these things i mean ofc the reason would be stated like for example he will go to cafe to stalk someone and it will happen for many chapters cuz he is in job but youll realise that that guy is believer of evil god that is planning to kill the whole world in hundereds of chapter later ( its not lore i just made it for example ), anyways 8 out of 10 main character is super super good many say he is boring but i find him very greattt . if you are a re reader i will say you dont have to worry about many negative things i stated

Crazy how I never finished this novel. Times awaiting. Let's begin.

I read LOTM 2 years ago. Back then, I saw a lot of people rereading this novel and I couldnt understand why at all, especially when there are so many new ones to read. Im no expert nor i care to be, I just like stories and imagination. In my life i read a bunch of different fictions. For example, from Edgar Alan Poe, Stephen King, Ludovico Ariosto ecc., to japanese mangaka like Urasawa, Miura, Matsumoto ecc, to even niche stuff like korean and chinese webnovels, french and Italians comics or even hard books like russian literature. Well... Here I am rereading this masterpiece of fiction that not arguably rivals Tolkien's Magnum opus, the only book I ever read more then once in my life... Cheers to all new readers!

To those of us who came here after seeing the Anime

Shadow Slave done, lotm on action

Time for a re-read 🥹
