To save the hopeless Dark Fantasy World, I held back my tears and destroyed the world, then killed the Demon King and returned.

Now, I’m trying to save the world using the “System” I gained as a “Regressor’s Privilege”… But the Main Heroines have also awakened their own memories of the previous timeline.

God damn it.

A must for harem fans.

The MC is forced to play the villain but deep inside he is kind and sensible. All heroines have unique traits and personalities. They are also OP and not just damsels in distress waiting for MC to save them. Their unique abilities and 'past' help the novel move forward.

As far as the plot goes, it is not just simple 'I will kill all demons and save the world.' There are twists and turns and MC also suffered hardship and pain. Till I have read, the author... more>> seems to build a unique and mysterious plot with well flesh characters with their own past.

Pros-

No 2D characters.

Best girls (Serena).

The romance is good.

No OP MC.

Many characters have their own plans including the villains.

Cons-

Sometimes description seems too vague. <<less

If you take a typical harem setting but make it so every character becomes as miserable as possible while providing just enough hope that they don't completely break then you get this novel. The story is pretty good and it gets very interesting once the focus starts on the mystery about the world and the system. The characters are good enough, though I'd say they are bland if it wasn't for the miserable setting as I see in them the generic harem characters like the pure of heart MC, the... more>> hot-headed heroine, the s*ave that falls in love with their kind owner, the dumb as rocks saintess, etc. The novel also has some emotional parts that are portrayed very well that I even teared up at the first few of them but at one point the novel showed such scenes way too frequently that I ended up desensitized. Regarding the interactions between characters, most of them boils down to pure rage, guilt-trippings and concern that is enjoyable to read at first but gets annoying when it happens often. The action isn't much either, it isn't described well imo and the power level of each character is pretty vague. If it was just these then I would rate the novel 3 stars but one particular character elevates my rating by 1 star because of how good she is.

Spoiler

I'm talking about Serena, the MC's fiancé. Her interaction with the MC is just so different with the other heroines and her label as a super genius isn't just for show. She is discussing her plans with the MC and even managed to help without harming him compared to the other heroines who do something without the MC's knowledge and were plotting his death the moment they regressed. She isn't wishy-washy with her feelings with the MC and just tells it straight to him (hell, the MC would have already had his first experience if it wasn't for the curse on Serena's body) . You can feel how comfortable the MC and her are with interacting compared to the other heroines who wallows in guilt and worry most of the time. Finally, she contributes a lot to the main story as she is the one solving the mystery about the world, the gods, and the system.

[collapse]

In conclusion, there are very good parts of the novel but there are a few boring and even annoying parts as well. There are times when I unknowingly fell asleep while reading then there were times when I eagerly want to read. <<less

Really enjoyed the story. Love how it subvert some of the expected Isekai trope. To start off simple the protagonist isn’t someone from our world himself but rather the grandson, so he already know how this world work because it is well, his world. The idea of a misunderstood hero is nothing new of course, but I like the way the author wrote the story. Definitely recommend it.

This is a really good novel, probably one I'd put on the top of my lists.

It's got good character development, painfully slow sometimes but it's a gradual change even if it seems like nothing happens. What I like most is when that character development reaches it's climax and you get a satisfactory result, especially when it comes to the relationship the MC has with the heroines.

Speaking of the MC, I really like Frey. He just hits all the good points I like in MCs so it seems kind of bias,... more>> but he's a guy who tries his best to be mature because of the role he has, but he still shows weakness sometimes which helps him seem human to me at least.

Now this novel isn't without fault even if I gave it 5 stars, it's sometimes frustrating to read through the chapters (especially when you've caught up) because that's the type of story it is but I at least the fruits of all that suffering is always satisfactory at the end. I'd say it's better to wait for a large stockpile before binging the story but go for however you want to experience it, I can't really control you after all.

It might not be everyone's cup of tea but I like it a lot so far, I'll be reading this for the foreseeable future. <<less

Man, this is a rollercoster of a ride, it hit many emotion perfectly but man I have to vent my frustration about this novel. So, many thing in the novel especially in the middle part feels like a retcon, the author just take a sudden after foreshadowing many thing that didn't payoff. I like how Ruby turn out at the end but man, the plot to getting to that wasn't fun, it feels contrived and Ruby has the potential to be a good villain which is wasted. Many of the... more>> side heroine feels like a filler like the teacher and Lulu. The main heroines are off screen most of the time, leaving the MC, the one they should look out for alone when it matter the most. Like, most of them just doing their own thing and most didn't even matter in the end, especially Clanna and Kania. I like the romance of Serena and her character but she is too Mary Sue for me, like the author never give convincing enough explanation about why she trust the MC unconditionally, something even the other heroines can't. <<less

Okay so, I have read this upto 250, its all well and good and yeah I like Frey as a MC very much I have tried to read this novel three time before but I couldn't, it was too emotional even first 50 chapters were hard for me to read. I stopped reading it. Then picked it up again, again stopped, continued this cycle and finally read upto this part of the story. Now the only thing I want to know, the only thing.... who does he has his first... more>> time with..... yes only this question because at this point I more or less understood the plot, if my line of thought is correct then it might end that way. The romance is as interesting as plot to me... if we look at the other novel who also follow a system, and a game plot. This is really well fleshed out. At this point too many things have happened. <<less

It's so good that I even read the MTL, Frey is nothing but a cute little boy striving for a happy ending to his world

... more>>
Spoiler

He even regressed an uncountable amount to reach the Happy ending that he wants but alas he's not there, so it didnt count as one.

[collapse]

Heroines:

Serena best girl.

Spoiler

I like Ferloche more. Glare is the best little sisterr or helper!

[collapse]

All of them has their own personality and own methods to help Frey overcome the burden he face...

Plot :

Even tho its tearjerking but once you overcome those chapter, it will be the best and good!

Spoiler

The part where Frey really goes into villain mode even tho he's generally kind just because "he just changed his perspective"

[collapse]

Overall it deserves a solid 5/5! Frey fighting! Also waiting for it to be adapted into manhwa:> <<less

Very good. The setup with the system is a little much. The limits imposed by the system get a little much and the heroines get annoying but the author knows when to play it back and let them find out the truth just in time to keep your interest. Kania first girl, best girl. Serena close second. The execution for the reveal to Clana was forced but very much needed and well timed since she was beginning to get annoying. The reveal for Ferloche was really confusing. She got way... more>> too annoying because of her inherent silly character type and because she was the last of the main heroines to learn the truth.

But like, honestly, it's way too much and I can't read more... I'm sure a lot of people like it. <<less

I am so addicted to this novel now that I hate myself for reading the low star reviews first.

To the point I am pretty sure each heroine has there own mini cults among the readers, that's how much this novel story is.

Translation is on point till now where I am. Sometimes it's hard to know who's POV it is... but if you read enough you know ita done on purpose to shown as cliff or mysterious.

Anyway it's been too long since I had this much fun investing in a novel,... more>> hope it gets a good webtoon soon.

Addicted to this series. MC is magnificent. Shift in character is hype. Heroines are attractive and have vibrant personality.

Plot is diabolical. Could meme for how shitty the game is.

Enemies are good. Gives the MC a run for his money.

Wish this series have a book so I could just binge it right now.

I mainly read the story from this site but couldnt wait anymore and read all the raws. According to what I have heard, this was the author's first work. The story is amazing but yeah it is very confusing at the start with not much development but goes much more in depth around chap 150. From 150 onwards its gets way better though there feels like some characters are getting targeted by the author. The MC is a tragic character as you can see by the synopsis and most of... more>> the heroines are beautifully developed in their own arcs though one wasnt complete until the side stories.

The ending was not that satisfactory for me even though it brought some underrated characters into the light. Any more is probably spoilers but the machine translations of the novel are still readable. However for the best translations its best to read in genesis itself. It has a great translation for this novel and many others I have read but there is releases around 1 or 2 a week. <<less

The Main Heroines are trying to kill me is definitively a very fresh and sufficiently unique concept which is very well executed and sticks surprisingly well to its premise, an oddity for web novels. Frey is a rather well developed character given the fact that he wants to do good as is his nature as a pure Hero but the system compels him to be perceived as evil by everyone in order to achieve his goals of saving the world. This leads to an interesting dichotomy of Frey's internal thoughts... more>> conflicting with his actions.

Spoiler

There is quite a lot of character development once the Heroines start regaining their memories as they learn of the depths of suffering Frey has gone through and as they have to deal with the fact that them knowing Frey's secret weakens his life-force, strength and causes him a great deal of pain, making clearing the game even harder. The characters feel alive and are well developed though there are times where you get quite annoyed at them for their decisions.

[collapse]

Overall, this is very well written novel with a translation on par with its writing and is one I would definitely recommend to read. Though it is not for the faint of heart due to many bittersweet scenes to the point where continuing to read continuously for a period of time makes you feel like a Masochist, which can't be helped given the very nature of the novel as it would not have close to as much depth without taking such a route. <<less

I think that there’s something to like about this story, but it would be extremely disingenuous to say that it is anything close to flawless. I think my biggest problem with the story is how messy it feels. It’s simply trying to do to much simultaneously for me. It wants a mystery, a drama, a tragedy, a psychological thriller horror something and it’s just not working for me.

I have no idea how much the story has progressed in these thirty chapters. It’s not that the plot hasn’t progressed, because it... more>> has, it’s that the main character doesn’t feel like they’ve progressed and I blame the ever present mood.

I don’t know, I want to like this story, but it’s just drenched in angst and dark adulting moodiness. Every one is angry or sad, and the story goes” No. This is not enough!”

It might get better and all I need to do is hold on and keep reading, but I not going to do that. The are other stories, better and worse, that I will enjoy more, so I will be dropping this one.

If the premise was interesting, I suggest you try it. If you hate it then I’m sorry. If you love it, great. Really, if you enjoy this, you are most definitely on one extreme of the S&M spectrum. And if you related to any character in this story, go get some help. I mean it. <<less

A bitter tragic tale. Weaved with sufficient mystery and some tragedy of course.

The concept of this novel is quite unique with a spin on the generic system and demon king troupe.

The MC Frey (aka Giga Chad) is such a likeable character who will connect with you and make you feel all of his emotions.

... more>> The MC alone is good enough to carry this novel but all the side characters and the FMC are all solid.

Each FMC (Serena best gurl. It's not even close) has a well thought out back story which all connects with the MC quite well.

This novel scratches that specific itch of a tragedic hero who goes through suffering all the time. Which is right up my alley.

Do give it a try, the translation is top notch but you need to have some patience because the update rates are quite slow but you would get used to it. <<less

The story is really interesting, filled with guilt trip. MC is pure heart but force to be villain. The story is heartbreaking and comedic
