Important note! Translation for this novel is absolutely awful. There's either no spacing, or too much spacing. It's Webnovel translation though, so what can you expect? It does however improve after chapter 5! Before that, try to trudge through the - clearly - unedited horror.

You may be asking... is this reviewer an idiot? 5 stars for this 'tr*sh'! Okay, okay... you have a point - I was a bit too generous! But what happened between chapter 1 and 3 was such a wonderful cliche breaker! The protagonist gets framed, loses... more>> his v*rginity, and takes revenge all in 3 chapters! Is the novel rather chuunibyou? Of course it is, it's clearly wish-fulfillment!

But from what I've read so far, this novel has a different pacing than the rest of 'old monster reincarnates into modern setting' novels. For one, the protagonist is clearly acting like his age. Ruthless, and arrogant! Just as a hegemon ought to be. You don't become a hegemon by showing mercy, and letting your enemies build up traction! No, you simply assassinate them! Oh course... so far there's demonic vibes to the novel...I'm clearly loving that! If the demonic vibe is gone, then expect me to plummet this novel to a 1. It's only redeeming feature is the characterisation of the protagonist is unexpectedly dark.

Give it a try. Expect cliches, but for the protagonist to navigate them a bit different from the usual. <<less

Interesting premise, but bad execution.

The story tries to survive with exaggerated reactions and girls.

The writing is bad, the author clearly is inexperienced as he abrubtly jumps from one telling to another.

So far, it seems as if the author tried to fit EVERY SINGLE CLICHE into his novel at once.

1. The cliche fatty best friend
2. Meets multiple powerful people when he first arrives.
3. The original is hated and useless
4. He saves women multiple times
5. Fights multiple bad people

And every single event seems EXTREMELY forced. Like he met that Rose woman and somehow impressed her by saying her drink suck like what???? Then her club is attacked and then the MC beats them up. He goes to a random party, and some random guy just picks a... more>> fight with the MC. <<less

It's tr*sh.

If you're after face slapping and reactions then you can consider this as a Poor rating; otherwise don't even touch it.

The main character is a Gary Stu that acts like a child despite supposedly being some kind of ancient demon emperor or something.

The story might get a plot in the future but there's nothing at the moment.

Avoid.
