Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

《Devil》 tells the story of Chi You, the protagonist shou, who was killed by someone and cultivated for revenge with the help of Feng Li, the protagonist gong. When Jiang Luo woke up, he transmigrated into the body of the cannon fodder that killed the protagonist shou.

What’s even worse, he transmigrated at the time when the protagonist shou was already killed by the original body.

At the funeral, Jiang Luo was pushed in front of the coffin.

The deceased body of the protagonist shou in front of him was serene, with a smile at the corner of his lips. However, Jiang Luo knew that he had turned into a malicious spirit and was eyeing covetously at him.

The more dangerous it was, the calmer Jiang Luo became. When his desire for survival reached the critical point, he knelt on the ground with a puff, and forced himself to cry.

With his sincere emotion, he said: “Chi You, I love you so much. Please don’t leave me…”

The chilliness around him smothered slightly.

It's very interesting, the tension between MC & ML is great palpable but the translation wore me out. It's not terrible but I don't see much differences with the mtl version.

The translation after the first few chapters becomes more like mtl.

It is the enemies-to-lovers-trope.

Both reasons that usually make me dislike a story.

But this one was just too amazing. The relationship develops so fascinating. The characters are so fleshed out (I cried for a side character). It has everything. Seriously, loved it, plz give it a chance.

This is so gold, and so ffffing slow burn, everything about this novel is perfect except the translation :'', I would like to suggest for re-translation, although you still can understand many important thing but sometimes it's so confusing, and for someone who like spicy novel this one is lv 2, they don't do too explicit and you can still imagine it, the gore part more explicit, and they had many dark backstory

It’s a really good novel!!!

The schemes between MC and ML is just so thrilling and this is a really unique novel in the sense that MC and ML really hated each other in the beginning.

Especially seen as ... more>>
Spoiler

ML killed MC 18 times

[collapse]

I love how their relationship really developed. From enemies to lovers wasn’t an easy journey because they really really wanted to over power and kill the other lol

I really wanted to read this novel when I first ready the synopsis but I was hesitant because another review said that the translation was kinda confusing. After months, I gave it a try and yes, there are parts of the translation that’s kinda confusing
Spoiler

because at times it’s more like reading MTL so you can’t really feel the emotions of the characters well

[collapse]
but still, it’s understandable and doesn’t really affect how scheming the ML and MC are haha

I just love both of their characters ♥️ plus the supporting characters here are really good too and the plot!! <<less

Amazing~

Two psychopath in a love and hate relationship (~￣³￣) ~. The story isn't scary but it's within the scope of the story.

MC and ML are both good. Even the side characters are well written. I wish I can read more novels like this one. Destiny, please guide me~ (≧▽≦)

A unique kind of bl romance. I love the slow burn and the ML & mc's unique way of how they developed their relationship. Really stands true to enemies to lovers tag, so if you want a fluffy and easy going romance this probably isn't it, but I would recommend you to try this novel out still for a new kind of taste.

This novel is good, I like it. The funny thing is that the MC is so dense🤣 about his feelings with the ML.

My most favorite part is that when they beat each other and then suddenly became sweet (but bloody). For the example, the so-called-date but full of terror and blood that was created by the ML (killing people in the dream world and then turning the MC friends into a ghost just for them to see that the MC and ML kissing each other, and show that the... more>> MC is all his) ghad I was laughing at that part especially the embarrassment of MC🤣🤭 after she woke up from the dream hahahaha.

The Main Characters are both psychopath hahaha but that's what makes the story interesting and good. I like the interaction of side characters and main characters.

Still waiting for the MC to beat Ge Wuchen (Ml's subordinate) since he was the one whose responsible and suggestor of the date plan of ML for MC.😃

For those who have a second thought in reading this novel its your lose hahahha. Do not be fool in the description, remember both the main leads are crazyyyyyy but entertaining 🤣😂 <<less

Best mc evehhr!!

Personally, I hate dense mcs and those who throw suspicions at the back of their minds then regret it later for disregarding it.

This MC is not the above description.

... more>> He takes all information as important and with meaning so it makes it easier for him to deduce things. This avoids the plot to run in circles just coz of misunderstandings (and I hate misunderstanding tropes so much I cringe 🙄)

So far til c152 everything is still in place and the characters are well-maintained.

I'll complete this review after the ending whether it satisfies my itch or nah (subjectively)

warning! No dog food here

edit: (finished reading and I'm back)

Plot hole? Non existent.

Cliche? None.

Dog Food? Ughh T.T the author must be on a diet.

The only thing I regret is that I never found this novel early.

If I did, my heart would have had the smell of roses earlier on.

This was gooooood. I love the enemy-to-lovers trope so this novel was perfect. The chemistry between the MC and ML is fantastic! The tension and interactions, so spicyyyy! I absolutely loved that the both of them wanted to kill each other and attempted to mu*der on multiple occasions! The ending was also very satisfying. In all I'm glad I read this novel♡

It’s been a while since I’ve read a damn good horror novel with actually scary yet exciting twists at almost every turn.

I also LOVE that this couple started their journey as concrete enemies; they never piled their punches not even once and it’s an exhilarating experience!

I’m honestly tempted to not wait so I can binge read the rest and just read as it updates... oof ≧ω≦

4.5/5

Good story, nice and relatively realistic enemy to lover development. When I say enemy, they're really seeking each other's blood. The horror is interesting enough but not too scary, other reviews say that the MC is OP, but I don't think he's too OP. After all, he did kill the main antagonist by ganging up against him.

For the people who came from the summary and was disappointed by the first few chapters cos it was different. Power through to at least end of chapter nine to decide if its peaked your interest again. Things start to pick up after chapter nine.

Overall, while different from the impression the summary gives I think the novel is quite interesting. I will say though, it's abit janky in the beginning with the build up to explain the concept of the world. It's like a modern world with supernatural situations and... more>> there are schools that teach people with talent in shamanism, exorcism, etc how to solve those situations alongside modern police.

Spoiler

In terms of some criticism between the relationship of the MC and ML. In my opinion the MC is in his right to want to kill the ML and vice versa. One wrongly bears the burden of someone else's sins, got punished for it by being killed 18 times [cue PTSD, paranoia] and constantly hovers between life or death because of ML (the MC) and the other had been cursed to an early grave (the ML, by the original Jiang Luo).

I personally think the beginning origins of the MC and ML's relationship is too tragic and bad it wouldn't make THAT much sense for them to end up together but that's only mainly cos I'm lowkey rooting for a ship that will never float - the protagonist gong Feng Li and MC.

Also the review about the MC being omnipotent and the ML always letting him win. Trust me he needs all the help he can get. The ML is practically a necromancer (that can also control the living) and can jump into body to body, honestly he could probably achieve immortality if he hasn't. Plus the ML is not that willing to let the MC die an easy death that's why he keeps giving some leeway to really see if he can escape again, it's like a cat and mouse game foreplay to him.

[collapse]

For what it is, it's a solid 4. I must warn some readers tho, the tags don't show enough of the possible TW in this story, while it's not that descriptive and is only briefly mentioned readers who are more sensitive to TW's and are easily disturbed should proceed with caution. In my opinion it's not that bad but I can't speak for everyone else. <<less

  • Translated chapter 5 done
  • MTL-ing 6th chapter and up
I love how intriguing the twists of the characterization of both characters. They both don't like to be the loser, lmaooo. They downplayed some of the gore-yness and morbidity of this novel, so don't shy away if you don't like horror. The delivery of the interrelations is nice, kind of sad with the truth about Chi You's fam and "friends" tho. Can we just- aaaahhhh Jiang Luo!!! This guy being so confrontational- I admire how he mocks and takes advantage of Chi You... more>> being "dead" to make up stories. Chi You on the other hand, still needs to catch up with our main character's slippery feats. I hope the score between the two is not that predictable. Power imbalance is hot but having someone who is the only sole authority with a say or strength in a relationship is not.

That said...

Awkward! Too awkward in terms of emotional response??? I don't know if it was just because I MTL-ed it but I feel complicated when going through scenes with Jiang Luo pretending to like Chi You especially since other people don't find it strange.

Spoiler

Bro, it took him what? Days of scolding Chi You and then one moment of crying makes you dispel your suspicion on him? I know it was the OG who did the initial actions but what the heck. And it was right after Lu Yi told him that he better cry if he did not kill Chi You? What even is this logic? If you mourn that means you are not the mu*derer? I feel so sorry for "Chi You" if he really died. Imagine having almost all of your attendees acting on your funeral like it's some kind of comedy sketch stage.

[collapse]

Spoiler

As for Feng Li banishing Jiang Luo's "beloved", Jiang Luo's too composed and eager to be his disciple right after that scene? That boy who claimed he will do everything to "avenge" Chi You and that he believe that Chi You will not hurt him. That guy who eagerly defended Chi You, just passively watch as his future master summons Chi You and tried to eliminate him. There's not even fluctuations, haaah, he's not even committed to pretending Chi You means something to him.

Read part of this before, leaving a review this time.

Jiang Luo is definitely an interesting character, and probably not nearly as sane as he appears--in that way he and Chi You make a good pair. ... more>>
Spoiler

Edit to add, definitely not as sane as he appears lol. He and Chi You are two peas in a pod, just in different ways.

[collapse]

Enemies to lovers is definitely a legit tag.
Spoiler

I'm not at the lovers part yet, but so far in dreamscapes Chi You's killed Jiang Luo 18 times, and Jiang Luo tortured Chi You with talimans till he retreated for a month, so...

[collapse]

Well now, not another suspicious character
Spoiler

Qiao Shixiong is just as suspicious as Bai Yufeng was. I'm starting to think Chi You had a lot of things planned and in place, far more than the book Jiang Luo read mentioned.

[collapse]
I actually really do like that although Jiang Luo didn't intend to have friends, he got them anyway.

Heh. We knew with enemies to lovers...
Spoiler

eventually the battle involves kissing xD

4.5/5 stars

on chp 90

goood so far MC and ML dynamic is super similar to thriller trainee and I really enjoy that.

I normally like wholesome pairs but so far MC and ML relationship is twisted and (ML only so far) lustful.

I enjoy the banter and how the MC cares for his friends when he was only using them for safety in the beginning. The wholesome friendship makes me happy.

I really do like this. It's one of those fun reads, as in not ones I take super seriously (as in I'm not SUPER invested in characters like I am with HOB) and am just enjoying the ride. Like, there are some parts where the ML is able to take/gain the advantage over the MC where it doesn't make sense or vice versa, but it seems like it's to provide fan service which I don't mind ;)

Came here to see how many chapters are left as it feels like... more>> I'm over half way, but to see there are ~140 chapters left plus extras is a bit surprising for me. I wonder if it's going to be dragged out in these remaining chapters, or if a new secret is going to be revealed thus extending the story much more than I thought. <<less

For all enemies to lovers trope addicts, this book is for you! I SWEAR TO GOD I'VE NEVER READ INTENSE RELATIONSHIP LIKE MC AND ML. Omfg my soul that's addicted to real and raw enemies to lovers book is fulfilled to the extreme. Both of them genuinely constantly tries to unalive each other, completely hates each other, the malice whenever they meet and the freaking s*xual tension??? Every chapter is gripping for me and every time they fight (whether physically or verbally) idk whom to root for bcos both of... more>> them are extremely cunning to boot.

Truly one of the best BL gems to read. <<less

At first I wasn’t sure how their love is going to work out but DAYUM the tension is crazy. Both MC and ML are crazy, never back down. The s*xual tension is also crazy. Reread this twice now! So much teasing and getting back, my heart is stressed and excited at the same time

Wassup folks! I have read this all the way through the available chapters and here are my thoughts :^

FIRST THINGS FIRST: THE s*xual TENSION IS OFF THE CHARTS. LIKE DAMN.

WHENEVER THE MC AND ML ARE IN THE SAME ROOM AT ANY PART IN THE STORY THE TENSION MAKES YOU WONDER IF THEY WILL TRY TO KILL ONE ANOTHER OR GIVE THE OTHER A VIOLENT bl**job.

... more>> *Huff* *Huff*

But anyway...

[Here is my long ass rant]

Our MC is a f*cking beautiful bastard. He is so calm and clever and he can act different ways depending on the situation, I love him so much. ♡

Plus, he is not a good person and acknowledges that. He does everything to 'survive'. He does grow to love those around him, but that takes a while and that is after he had all but secured his survival.

That unapologetic nature of his is part of why I would die for him and love him so much. :]

The ML is also a treat to watch as he goes from "oh, he is interesting" to "I wonder what I can do to make him fall for me because I need him in my life and I love him so much".

Like the MC he is not a good person by any means and like the MC he is a very crafty, calculating person. His goal is revenge for the most part and in order to accomplish his goal he will do literally anything.

But the fact he learned about lust and love and desire from the MC's very existence is kinda heartwarming. :>

Their relationship is violent and strange, but at the same time beautiful and warm.

I would compare it to a snake, something so lovely and charming but at the same time dangerous. It strikes when they least expect it and it's up to the other person to decide what to do in order to escape it.

Only for it to wrap around them and bring them closer together.

The world building and plot is pretty good, but overall the main characters and their relationship is what brings you in.

I read some comments on how the side characters are just kinda s*upid, which is fair because although part of that could just be the MC and ML being ☆manipulative bastards☆, the background characters are just that: background characters.

Another way to put it is this: I would die for all of them, but I don't know any of their names. :^

Basically everything other than the MC and ML is just kinda mid lol. But the MC and ML are so amazing that the aftershock of their meeting kinda blows all the insignificant stuff aside

[/here is my long ass rant]

TLDR: I love this story so much and I adore the characters (but especially the main couple) in it so much that I was willing to sell my soul so that they were happy. The tension and the writing was amazing and I will read it again and again. U^U <<less
