Synopsis:

Ling Chenyan transmigrated into the novel “Nowhere to Run” as a sword in the hands of the villain, Guan Luowei. She has neither a cute appearance nor a powerful cheat, and she constantly worries about losing her life.

To survive, she decides to protect herself well.

So, when Guan Luowei wants to use her to kill enemies, she avoids the enemy’s weapons by 360 degrees.

When Guan Luowei wants to use her to scout enemy information, she clings to Guan Luowei’s leg, refusing to go no matter what.

Gradually, Guan Luowei notices something is wrong. When she takes the sword to a swordsmith for inspection, the swordsmith’s eyes light up: “This is a good thing! It’s awakened a sword spirit!”

But when Guan Luowei describes its strange behavior, the swordsmith ponders for a long time and finally says cautiously: “Perhaps… it’s just a bit delicate?”

Guan Luowei: “……”

••••

Guan Luowei is reborn, and the biggest change is this weapon that has been with her for a lifetime. Throwing it away is impossible, so she decides to observe it closely.

However, during her observation, she discovers that this sword, despite being a bit delicate, is very protective of her.

When someone scolds her to her face, that person suddenly loses their pants for no reason, losing face in front of everyone.

When someone secretly frames her, the next day, the framer’s ancestral grave is dug up, not just one, causing the person to cry bitterly and vow to find the grave robber.

When she is chased and killed, the sword suddenly becomes incredibly brave, its blade breaking for her sake, almost causing it to dissipate.

Guan Luowei has always known that there is a young woman living inside the sword. The young woman’s voice is beautiful and pleasant, but she never shows herself.

Until one day, while she is bathing, she opens her eyes and suddenly meets a pair of pure and clear eyes.

Very fun story with an interesting premise and nice characters.

Note: I basically skimmed through the last chapters just so I could be done with it so idk what happened there but here's my review:

Story

The title is as literal as it could get. Our protagonist, did in fact, transmigrate into a sword. The story for most parts is light-hearted, filled with comedy and some loom of the stakes at cost. While at first, these stakes don't have much weight due to the nature of our female lead, it does become... more>> a driving force of the narrative later on, and would soon implode into a great challenge the characters would need to face. The handling of these different tone shifts with the light-heartedness and seriousness is maintained well up until the big climax, though this part could vary from reader to reader.

Personally, I felt that the handling of these tone shifts weren't as good as it were in the beginning. It did eventually began to feel jarring, disrupting the narrative flow, which caused me to lose immersion in the story. This is also part of the reason why I barely skimmed through the last chapters.

But fear not! Don't be discouraged by this as it could very well be a personal preference. It was only by the end, and some parts in the middle, that I began to feel this way. The story is still good and interesting, and I do recommend for you to check it out. There are many twists waiting for you to discover, and while they may be predictable, I think it adds nicely to the plot. In conclusion, the story has an interesting premise, a great handle, and aside from my few nitpicks, I recommend that you still check it out!

I added this one late but, the fact that the female lead can hear the protagonist's thoughts is pure comedy gold, I had so much fun. This was utilized well by the author and can most definitely bring a grin out of you.

Characters

Hoo boy. Remember when I said I barely skimmed through the last chapters? Aside from some questionable narrative flows, a big part of why I lost my immersion was due to the characters. To better understand, let me break it down:

Guan Luowei is your typical cold on the outside, but soft on the inside character. There are basically only two people who could witness the softness that lie within her strong and cold exterior, her grandfather, and our protagonist, Ling Chenyan. There is nothing particularly wrong with her from what I've read, and by that I meant, I really enjoyed her character and had a good time reading the story she's a part of. The protagonist, Ling Chenyan, meanwhile, I also enjoyed her a lot! She might be my favorite character within the story. She's funny, witty, over-all, a great character. She also has a strong desire to live, hence why she claimed she didn't want to be a hero, as she wasn't one. And well, unfortunately, this was also the reason why I began to dislike her somewhat, despite my love for her in the beginning.

What I will be saying here happened much, much later in the story. The reason for my dislike is, frankly, at some point at the very end nearing the big climax, Ling Chenyan was uh... kinda useless. It wasn't that she was delicate, at some point, she became a sitting duck that kept on being protected by the people around her. (Again, reminders, this happened much later in the story) For character preference purposes, it was pretty easy to notice this direction which effectively had me raising my eyebrow. But it's alright. It was something I could look past on. What did, eventually began grating on my nerves however, was the tonal shifts. Remember when I said that the handling of the tone shifts wasn't as great as in the beginning?

Much of the tonal shift revolved around Ling Chenyan. There are many such instances wherein the story is shifts into a serious, somber tone, but that tone is disrupted by the nonchalance, almost light-heartedness of Ling Chenyan. In the beginning, this would be acceptable as the stakes are not dire, but during the story arc in which the stakes are real and heavy, and the story is pointing so, Ling Chenyan as the device to try and bring up the atmosphere comes off as jarring and disruptive.

To better understand, it's like the equivalent of someone drinking and laughing, while the rest are tense because of pending trials ahead. Of course, not that exaggerated, and Ling Chenyan certainly didn't do such thing. I would describe it as some contradictory tonal setting that is displayed by the environment, and the character involved. It doesn't help too that this is during the time wherein Ling Chenyan's contributions for the big climax are little, and Guan Luowei is the one doing most of the running, which ultimately culminated in me finally losing my patience, and just skimming the rest the chapters.

As I said, Ling Chenyan has a strong desire to live. She didn't wish to be a hero, and vehemently denied becoming one. She displayed great false nonchalance, and a bigger hypocrisy. On one hand, this character progression irritated me. I have a huge feeling it's due to the writing, however, because while I'm typing this review now, seeing the concept in words just made me realize that Ling Chenyan would have been the type of character I would imprint on. So for now, I'm blaming the execution. Continuing, Ling Chenyan's strong desire to live is honestly, a bit disconnected within the story. It lacks consistency, so to speak. So when everything finally built up to push her into developing her character, it felt undeserved. I felt wronged for the side characters who became dear to me that paid the price, and I was so irritated I could no longer immerse myself within the story. There will be a part later on that would truly push her to the brink, though in all honesty as a reader, I couldn't care less by that point. Anyways, many people died because of her, and her lack of action and indecisiveness contributed for the great majority of it which comes off a distasteful. (That, and being saved whilst she was a sitting duck)

On the other hand, I just realized that Ling Chenyan is quite a complex character.... on paper. So this might invite you to check the story out!

Conclusion

Much of what I said here can only be understood once you've read the story. It's highly likely that you may not experience the story as I did, and may not even find the faults I mentioned. There are still many good things within this that I highly recommend you check out, and judge for yourself instead.

3.8/5, rounding it, 4/5. <<less
