I wouldn't be terribly surprised if the Author is going to use it as an auto problem solver for him. I find it somewhat questionable the things it has been able to solve so far. I agree with you that it is seems implausible that he wrote all these things down in the game.

His presence changes everything. He is literally taking over a current character. The tutorial quest literally changes one of the MAIN CHARACTERS first impression of him. Also there is an unexplained reason that those mercenaries were chasing him. Him murdering all but 2 of them should have actual consequences.

Now lets take the tutorial quest out of the picture and examine how his presence changes things. His interactions with fellow students are completely different than the original character. This will already change the social dynamics of the story in some way. We have already seen this play out in the following chapters. This always happens no matter what. It is the nature of these stories.

MC is missing some brain cells. "We need to get this OP dude on our side. Let's push Flame to grab the staff to spark his interest" --> fast forward and all of a sudden he has the staff and the dude is interested in him. MC, "wow I need to make it so I never interact with this dude again"

They probably have the beef since she is questioning the MC. A lot of people self insert themselves and get offended when someone questions the MC.

MC doesn't hold a candle to Sid. MC is way too passive and has no personality.

This is stupid logic and someone always posts this in these stories to defend bad writing. First things first the presence of the MC already changes the outcome of the story and all stories have to navigate (or ignore that) eventually. Secondly, the VERY FIRST thing he did was completely change the story with the "tutorial quest".

I think the biggest turnoff for a story is when Authors default to not drawing attention. The only objective the MC has is to do a path that is different than the normal path. Instead of actively searching for a novel new path the MC gives 0 effort (besides the opening scene) to make things different. He also does a surprise pikachu face when things are different. I really hope the author changes the MC to being more proactive and not just plot armor his way to making changes. The glasses carrying him through the exam was already lame. Him not recognizing the girl he traveled with (and who saved him) is lame. Him trying to default to class F is lame.

Okay I got some questions.

1. Why is there PVP in the dating sim? Is this an actual thing? It at least explains why there was rankings.
2. Did the MC just hack / mod the game to turn off the restrictions to blink?
3. How can you say blink goes in a random direction, but then turn around and say I can control the direction?

It is a requirement.

If you go back 2 chapters, you will realize he was at the other trade union investing money. I can understand forgetting as it was awhile ago.

This has been one of my complaints so far. I want them to play into his shapeshifting more. To be fair, recently, the story has included more of his shapeshifter characteristics (like this last chapter being unaffected by the howl), but the beginning of the story (outside of his initial training with his mom's friend) the story only showed the immortal side.

I ended up binging it to current (chapter 16 at the time of this post), and my god is this fantastic. The art is absolutely fantastic. I honestly havent felt this hyped about the artwork since I read solo leveling.

I also really like the drama presented thus far in the story. I enjoy the MC's personality and the companions he have are all fun and engaging characters.

1. He is Japanese in a Korean story
2. He is a side character who is going against the MC
3. He didnt offer the MC kimchi
4. He stopped the MC from stealing mythical grade items
5. He let the MC absorb too much demonic energy.

You see the issue is you are thinking with your head and not thinking through hype.

Im surprised you were able to pick that up. What tipped you off?

That has to be the creepiest thing he could have possibly done

The prince isnt even trying. Its his little brother who is pushing the issue.

ok.

In particular, you need plot armor it make it op

Looks like young-guk is about to get a step-sister
