It was a very good read. Such a shame the author got sick by the end of the story and had to rushed it.

The story itself was actually satisfying. All questions had been answered and everything was clear by the end. However, the second half was rushed bcs of the author becoming sick which is pretty understandable. The ending kinds falls flat as it was anticlimactic? Like you'll feel that it actually just ends like that. But in a weird sense, it also feels complete like it's meant like that.... more>> Like adding more would ruin it.

The MC's identity was revealed so early, and we weren't get to see other trainees looking up to him. I feel like the author actually wants him to have that mysterious vibe. Like that powerful characters in other stories who always bring or use umbrellas and hats to cover the entirety of their faces except their lips that was always smiling mysteriously. Then be super handsome, strong, and knowledgeable once encountered. I also feels like he was a character that was supposed to be mysterious to the point that trainers would encounter him sometimes thinking he was a ghost, a trainer itself, an NPC, an appraiser in different worlds and real world. Like that very mysterious overpowered character that comes and go as they please. He would just be like the talk of the trainers and veterans. "That mysterious powerful shop owner who sell ghost tools, you can ask him about this and that, for sure he has the informations you need."

That's what the vibe I get from MC. At first it was like that, but I guess since the author had to finish the story early, his identity was revealed too early and they hadn't had the time to make him like that properly.

I love his character, I hope I can see or encounter more stories with a similar role for the MC.

The overall story was a very good read. I came for the BL romance but although it is too subtle, to the point it's unnoticeable, it doesn't actually affect the enjoyment of reading it. Just hoped for more romance and fanwai, but it's all good. <<less

I really wished the author had the time to properly finish this because it's so goodddd<33 But still it's still pretty good as it is and very much interesting

Loved the whole idea of the plot, and especially how everything was tied up. Apparently the ending was rushed because the author was sick, but I still think it was very enjoyable.

Su ZiMo was in conscious comatose stage for 4 years after the car accident then one day he woke up in a rundown shop called AnYuYiYu and his new journey begin.

This is really a good plot. And I like the existence of nightmare world that's so evil, the malicious ghosts that somehow make me feel sympathize with them, The antagonist that somehow didn't painted with all black but gray colour, The mystery ghost umbrella that help ZiMo through many difficulties.

In short, I like everything in this novel. So sad that... more>> author has to rush an ending because of her health. I do feel like this novel could have so much more exciting subplots. With so many possibilities of hopping to another world, finding ghost tool, acquire new assistants in shop. But still thankful to the author that's it finish and it's answer all my curious about the key plot point. <<less

Even though the romance isn't much, the backups like supernatural thingy really made me binge read till the end in Just less than a week.

Even if the ending is rushed, the author did a good job with this novel.

The MC has a good balance, he's well written. Even the characters that are basically bystanders doesn't feel like 2D, the author added some human behaviors that sometimes is a little difficult to write. It shows how much human nature can be added to twist some dialogues

BL isn't the main thing here,... more>> but the interaction between ML and MC is acceptable

My recommendation to read if you like to have supernatural plots but wanted an MC who just like to be a powerful bystander, by yours truly <<less

Such a beautiful story to read though I hoped the romance would be more but it couldn’t be help since the author was sick and she tried her best to finish it up~ thank you for the translators for this novel!! It was wonderful to read!!

Pros :

The premise is soo fun. Being a shop owner while everyone else are struggling to live?? I also like how the MC doesn't want to meddle much w the other trainers. MC isn't a cold person but he's not too kind.

I have mixed feelings about the side characters some of them are thought provoking. Author has an interesting pov about human nature and just how bad a human can act.

... more>> The translation is nice and kudos to the translator for the memes and comments.

Cons :

No romance?? The author got sick and the story ended too quickly. There's still a lot of unanswered questions. I need to know the secrets about the adopted brother, his father and mother. The novel could achieve so much more but alas. <<less

The story kinda slice of life. It's fun and smooth. MC was a real-life prince (handsome&rich&smart&well cultured) had an accident and became a fool for 4 years. Then he woke up at the shop in nightmare world. He need to traveling to each nightmare collecting ghost tools and sell it to extend his life. The journey start and he discovered that nightmare world slowly invaded the real world. There are mystery about nightmare world, his family and many more. His ghost partner is the premium helper through the journey. The... more>> ending is kinda abrupt and a bit rough but It's still ok.

Although MC is not good at fighting but he is smart, reasonable and calm. He's a very good man (tbh his personality is saint) but always said he's not a good man. It may because he grew up in a best environment with the family care. <<less

I really enjoyed the slice of life elements in this horror novel (人◕ ᴗ◕) *.✧ The MC is literally there to be a melon eater/spectator and I love it. Of course sometimes he chooses not to but there isn't a boring moment throughout.

It is a pity that there was a rushed ending but it was still satisfying.

the story is actually interesting but as all reviewer said this story doesnt show the romance it self. It's kinda like you know its there but its not written explicitly. And for me the ending is really not satisfying.

Ending spoiler

Before you start reading you have to know that the main focus of the story is not the growth of the protagonist or the novel, in fact it is a story that acts mainly on the other characters and stories that appear, so it is not that you will not feel emotions like sadness, anger or happiness is that these feelings will not be so focused on the protagonist’s scenes (but these scenes exist, I like the MC a lot). When you understand that, you can love each bow and... more>> have fun. The romance is not as explicit or sweet as honey, but I like the couple. Anyway, a light and pleasant story to read !! Only the ending is a little abrupt, but very closed, so only 4 stars (I feel sad for not having many sweet scenes of the couple because it had so much potential for that) <<less

Don't read there are spoilers

To be honest after finish the novel, I'm still wondering who is the ML.. I initially thought MC's bro is the ML but I guess not? Apparently it is the Ghost Umbrella lol Like other commenters I thought MC's bro will play a huge role in solving whatever mysteries MC are in cause 1st he's the one who takes care of MC when MC is vegetative. 2nd he seems to know MC's mom and MC's mom is very crucial in this case. Since I already target... more>> MC's bro as ML, I didn't notice MC and Ghost Umbrella are subtly started to like? each other. Idk what to feel, from their relationship it was merely dog trying to please his owner. I mean it could be a puppy seme. There was some hints mostly from Ghost, I noticed Ghost don't like peoples staring at MC and attack them. Ghost like to protect MC. Ghost like MC depend on him. Ghost once carried MC in his arm and reluctant to let go. For MC, many time it hints MC feel very save with Ghost beside him. MC always curious about Ghost.

Yes there were a lot of plot holes in the ending. Could have been done better but the plot is very good actually. Very refreshing. If it wasn't for the ending... All the world MC gone through is very good very fun very scary (not really) verg spooky yes very sad too <<less
