/ Fantasy / The Author's POV
Synopsis
The person whom the world revolves around.
The person who defeats all of his opponents, and ultimately gets the beautiful girl.
The sole existence all villains fear.
That is the protagonist.
What about me?
As a failed author who had only one success throughout his whole career, I had reincarnated into my late novel.
"This is it"
I thought, as I tightly clenched my fist.
Did I just get reincarnated in my own novel?
Is this where I reincarnate in a novel and become the protagonist?
No.
Sadly it's not that kind of novel, as I reincarnated as a mob.
The world doesn't revolve around me.
The girls don't come flocking towards me.
The cheat items don't come to me.
"Phew"
I let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank god I'm not the protagonist"
I joyfully shouted as tears streamed down my cheeks.
Wait, are you curious as to why I don't want to be the protagonist?
I did forget to mention the most important thing when I was describing a protagonist.
That is...
They are calamity magnets.
I just died. If I learned something from that, it's that it really isn't a pleasant experience.
If possible let me live a long stable life.
Thank you, whoever reincarnated me.
I would later come to regret these words...

Since most authors vote 5 stars for their novel, I shall follow their example and do the same. - Not looking for an excuse to rate my story 5 stars....definitely not. Jokes aside, I would really appreciate it if you could leave behind constructive criticism regarding my novel such as, - Whether my grammar needs improvement - Each chapter is too long - Structure is a mess Anything that makes me strive to become a better author is desirable, as I am looking to continuously improve myself and the story as I write
I'm gonna be completely honest here, this book has POTENTIAL! Author I'm not tryna gas you up but this book is GOOD. There were barely any flaws, maybe one or two mistakes but overall it was great. The structure of the writing was clear and concise and the writing quality wasn't bad either. The idea of reincarnating into your own novel sounds cool af! It kinda reminded me of Omniscient reader's Viewpoint but this was with a twist. Great job author, try to up your stability of updates and I promise you this book will blow! A definite 5 stars from me. Keep it up!
Update pace seems quite consistent. Writing quality is okay, good grammar. Info dumps feel random and stuff gets repeated. There's little foreshadowing and some stuff feels like they just spontaneously got added on. There's a bit of inconsistency on what MC says and does. But I guess dat could boil down to the unreliable narrator conundrum as the story is being told from a first person perspective. MC can't seem to make up his mind on what he really wants. MC wants to preserve the story but at the same time goes around screwing with the story. He wants to be a mob character and not attract any attention but at the same time wants to be at the same power as the story's MC. World Background is meh, seems typical nothing out of the ordinary. One of the things that really irked me was how it was mentioned that orcs, elves and dwarves are refugees, and yet once they come to dis world they just become observers and don't join strength with humans to fight off demons. Even though they witnessed first hand da ferociousness of the demons as their world got conquered by them. Why? Well some reasons were given from each race dat I found very irrational but the most prominent was the dwarves reasons. It's said because dwarves were disgusted seeing humans' technology level dey distanced themselves from the humans. But here's where it breaks down, all three foreign races are allied with each other. The dwarves who were so disgusted by the technology level of humans seem to have no qualms with allying with the orcs. Well this world is really the MC's world and it was mentioned several times how bad of an author he is. But dis is still the background of the world and it's quite irking as it makes little sense

This is my second review, the first half was pretty similar to Novel's Extra but the ongoing chaps are completely different. I won't lie, I am enjoying this novel a lot. Author, I have a cover image for you in case you decide on changing. I have changed the eye color etc to make it look more like the mc. The chess pieces in the background depict how the mc thinks of them as chess pieces.
i dropped it after 13 chps. first of all, this is an uncanny copy of the novel's extra. the plot holes are many even at the beginning of the story. the mc (who was a shut in, never exercised in his life ect) just got dumped into his own novel. quickly became this unshakablly willed man who could do superhuman feats (happens in chp4 or 6? i forgot the nb but it's extremely soon) he's dumb, i was quite excited abt his sword art but just couldn't bare with the unrealisim / 1D characters/ swayed morals (in one chp he's not interested in minor girls cz he's old mentally, the other he's sad cz he couldn't see them in skimpy clothes) i just can't with the inconsistencies. the teachers don't act like teachers, for some reason a genius teenager who won a nobel was still attending highschool with them ect... does it get better? hopefully. will i stay longer to see it? no. i already wasted enough time. at least grammar is above average.
again, I drew Kevin as I imagine it😂 ....author what do you think ?? , I hope you like it🪄 ..Readers do you imagine it as I imagine it? Really he is very handsome ❤️🔥

story has potential, but the writing makes it muddy and slow. it has a good start, before you start to realize the author loves to explain everything. it's good and bad, a lot of world building is done, but it's mainly bad because the MC is reiterating context to almost anything. status windows? let me explain. manuals? let me explain. demons? let me explain. the main characters of my novel? let me explain. the issue is, it gets repetitive, constantly being told about this and that. the info dumps are in almost every chapter, and the author tends to overexplain instead of making it brief. for example, in chapter 26, the author uses two examples to explain the same thing. they don't build off of each other, but are both there anyway when it doesn't make sense to have both. this is my only issue with the story. the infodumps are too abundant and tedious, which only bog down the novel. otherwise, looking forward to more.
I drew Ren as I imagine it, author - sama what do you think??😆💘Soon I will draw the rest ...+ this novel is legendary, one of the best novels that I have read. You are the best, author keep going🔥
Here's Amanda . Love this novel , Hate the MC being a simp for chess and seeing the world as board but oh well the story is still good so keep reading it.
I don't know how but my last review got deleted. so, here is the new one… Also, I have some new cover of the same pics with new editing. Look in the reply section.
I really didn't like mc he say he wants to lay low but in the end he is stand up like sore thumb just being loser to most people, incompetent to his teacher, and mysterious to 1 heroine. don't forget how he seems see other people other than significant character at his "story" is worthless in his eyes (him being friendless), how he see world as if he is God who is doing babysitting his story so the said story stay at the same how he "creat" it. story wise it's so slow to my taste and too many info dump.
Honestly, i have no idea where all these 5 star reviews are coming from. If you spent time reading the novel you would find more comments with criticism than ones that were praising the novel, but i guess all those critics didnt leave reviews? Anyways, the novel promises a bunch of things in the beginning where the author appears self aware of cliches and promises not to indulge in them. Fastforward a few paragraphs and the cliches begin and NEVER end. Not only that the MC himself is as dumb as a brick, the author has the MC choose a G rank skill that is supposed to help him with his mentality, meaning he will hanlde situations in a smart and precise manner….guess what the author forgets (he forgor💀) about it right afterwards and its never heard from again. Every time the MC meets a woman he creams himself and everyone laughs at him. Every time the MC is faced with someone stronger than him (which is everyone in the entire school, world, and galaxy btw) he lets them step on him and says “just you wait” and we do….we wait, and nothing changes. The MC claims to have the mindset of wanting to bide his time and grow stronger behind the scenes, and yet we never see him putting his all into training. I could honestly write an essay of complaints for this story. My last words to you all however are to read the story and just suffer through this because what else are you gonna do anyways 🤷🏾♂️
Honestly, I expected good things from this novel based on it's score and ranking. But it was extremely disappointing. İnfo dumps, extreme lack of character development, slow plot progression, meaningles dialogues etc. I read around 50 chapters, Idk if it's get any better, but those chapters were enough for me to drop this. Grammar is not bad and novel has some potential if thsese issues handled well but for now, very disappointing.
This novel has a sense of voice and sarcastic sequences to woo any person with a heart for a good story. Every chapter was better than the last. Taking on an original idea and twisting into their own, the author has done a fantastic job. Keep rising!
I sincerely don't understand the rate and praises for this novel, I just see everyone talking about the need to get through 70 chapters for things starting to pick up, but I got burned out at chapter 55, reading this novel gave me migraines, if a novel needs 70~100 chapters to get good the novel don't deserve this high rate. Now talking about the points of this review, I will say the writing quality is really good, for what I can see the update are stable, but the story development is so bad that I dropped, the MC character is all over the place, he wants to be low-key but everything he does attracts attention, the others characters are just cliché like the MC novel portraits them, about world background I will just say that it's pretty simple, without giving to much imagination.

It was good until I caught up and had to deal with cliffhangers. The Author is a master of cliffhangers which I didn’t realize until I couldn’t binge read anymore. Anyway take my 5 stars and tell me what happens already!
Author this is just my opinion it's up to you to listen or not, you really need to edit 50 down chapter, the early chapter was info dump and then Chapter 42 if not mistaken ,you forgot to explain why MC not use monarch indifference when he made deal with melissa and why did he didn't sell the theory in short you need to explain his action/reason, btw please tone down how you describe mc(my back was drenched in sweat) and other more.Mc in the past life became hikikomori because he didn't get scholarship after he workhard to become top1 in his school only to get stolen his scholarship from son of official so the mc was not coward or loser just a dude who lost motivation and hope to society/world so again please tone down how you describe mc as loser/pathetic

I have attempted reading a few novels on this platform before. Most of them end up being only so-so and due to that it's been a long while. I like this story, it's not the most original thing I've read but it does most things well. As far as the grammar and spelling goes it is okay... I notice 3 or 4 errors a chapter but most stories on here have 7+. Could definitely use a proof reader but that is not the nature of this platform. Characters can range all over the spectrum but the primary characters I definitely enjoy and I want to see where they are headed next. The world building is a lot like some other things I've read, which is fine since most people get inspiration from something else they've read. I just hope going forward more worlds can be explored as I consider that to be one of the more unique aspects of the setting. Update speed is great and I get the feeling the author really enjoys writing. I think there's enough potential here for something great. As of writing this, I'm at the latest release of 296. The author has mentioned planning on having there be 500-600 chapters. Where the story sits now I worry that may not be enough but we will see. I'm glad to be here for the ride and sorry if anything in my review comes off as condescending.
Eyo, thank you for reading everyone. Appreciate all the support that I have been receiving. Treat this 'review' as a Q&A area. Ask me whatever you want regarding the novel and I'll try my best to answer you (As long as I there aren't any spoilers) Thank you once again for reading.
