Synopsis
Hi guys, this is my second novel here, and for you that have been reading my previous novel 'Is this really A Game?!' this one will be quite different. First of all, the system elements are light compared to my previous novel as the world I am writing about is one that had magic and monsters before the system arrived and is available to all. You should expect a dark story with a protagonist that acts like a villain at times and is quite calculative in his endeavors. Anyway, hope you enjoy it, and here is the synopsis.
Lyle was an orphan, he knew not of who his parents were and only had memories of his mother from a long time ago. After being discovered by a mysterious man, Lyle joined the assassin organization and rose through the ranks thanks to his hard efforts, talent, and mysterious origin.
The world suddenly changed during one of his missions, what was supposed to be a slightly more difficult mission became a hard one, and then the change occurred.
Mana ran rampant and the many monsters of the world became stronger, more of them appeared and suddenly the inhabitants of the world that had suppressed monsters for so long were forced to fight the more powerful monsters once again.
For Lyle, it was a chance, however. The system came into his world and he received an opportunity to become more powerful.
Ding!
[ The system has scanned the host and has concluded that the bloodline can be activated. ]
[ Will you activate the bloodline? ]
[ The host will have to sacrifice all the power he has and will be back at level 1 upon doing so ]
"My bloodline, will I finally be able to track him down after doing this?"
"System, activate it."
[ The host has activated his bloodline ]
[ The host has been marked by the Empress of the Night, it is advised that you become powerful quickly, otherwise, you might get captured ]
"Huh?"

It feels empty. It feels like the protagonist is maintaining a facade, as opposed to acting naturally. I also can't help but question the practicality of certain events. Posing as a khilman, a supposed battle hardened maniac, that... decided to randomly investigate the appearance of beasts? If the idea was to avoid suspicion why even think to bring up the issue at all, especially when the protagonist insists on using the area as a hunting ground? The actions are completely contradictory, then you have him perform acts of great foresight, as though he planned such intricacies. I don't want an idiotic protagonist, but making him senselessly intelligent will only question the validity of all his actions. Why doesn't he simply have a change of clothes? Why doesn't he enter and leave the town at more reasonable hours to avoid attention? Why doesn't he utilise his makeup kit to take on an appearance or conjure a back story that perhaps gives credence to his late night shenanigans. I'm sure there will be some rationale later on that will somehow justify these actions, but I can't really understand how he can appear so shortsighted.
Author's shameless 5 star review. Hi guys, so this novel will be the second novel I have published here, I am publishing it for the Fantasy Carnival and I hope to get a good score there. Anyway, if you have read my previous novel, then you will be familiar with the system, if not, don't worry, it's nothing complicated. The novel is a dark one, the main character is not like the one, or ones in my previous novel. So expect a dark world where the main character needs to navigate in order to survive and raise his power.
Overall great book with smooth introduction into the story. Character development goes with decent pacing, making them well rounded (terms of traits & personality). World building which is also significant, describes the details good enough for the reader to depict the image of surroundings much easier.
Excellent book with great storytelling and interesting characters. A great read for anyone to get into, especially if you enjoy fantasy settings. The chapters are very well paced and it doesn't feel cumbersome to read at any point, as a matter of fact I can't put my phone down. Great work by the author, as was expected after his previous book was a hit as well.
I love reading novels that have a cold-blooded mc that doesn't mind getting his hands dirty, and this novel is just that. The MC is calculating and cold, doesn't mind killing people to get what he needs and wants, and does some things that I didn't expect, so far, loving it.
Absolutely loving the novel so far. The beginning is a bit tense and shows just what kind of a person the MC is, and thankfully, he is a cold-blooded person that doesn't mind even killing civilians in order to get to his target. The story starts off strong and continues with the same, with some short parts where the story slows down a bit in order to show the MC planning some things or to explain the world. Worldbuilding is something I enjoy when done right, and so far, even though we know little about the many kingdoms and empires of the world as the story is focused on the empire where the MC resides in, we get a glimpse of the more powerful empires and characters that stand at the top of the world. We only get a bit of them, and some explanations about who they are and how powerful they are, but it's enough as the MC is too weak to come in contact with them. As for the MC himself, he has his goals, but there is also a bit of mystery attached to him, which I have been enjoying so far. His thoughts and plans are not simple and he knows how to plot in order to get what he needs or to eliminate those that would be an obstacle. So far, loving the story and hoping for more of the same!
I love it so far . I am not too sure is he a vampire with a bloodline as strong as the empress or just a lord bloodline like his father
is there romance?I saw the 18 tag so I'm curious if it's for gory scenes or intimate scenes
I have no complaints - it’s perhaps heavy on the chapters-long fight scenes but that’s a personal preference and I know many love this.
hi author i haven't yet read this book but i absolutely loved 'is this really a game?' well I'm sure this book will be as good as the other stories you have written so I'm going to say everyone should give it a go
Love it Love it Love it! I wanna read more about Lyle and what he does next! Keep it up author-san! I kinda suck at writing reviews, so this will have to do :P
