   This is my first time reading a novel narrated in the first person. I don't usually read BL (Boys' Love) novels here, but I found it when I was looking for something to read, and once I started, I couldn't get out. At first, I didn't pay attention to the title, but I realized it at the end. The phrase "The most fleeting thing in the world" seemed to foreshadow the ending early on. —Memories of Death. One of his brothers was from the same mother, the other being the Yellow Emperor. Initially, he only wanted to live, and his homosexuality became a camouflage. Later, he finally met his lover, and thus became a true homosexual. Later, he finally discovered that his brother had always cared for him, but by then it was too late. His brother was gone.

    Don't let my recommendations go to waste!!! I think these are all well-thought-out and logical novels, and most importantly, they all have live-action narration versions. These days, it's incredibly rare to find novels that are both intelligent and have live voice acting; most of these will cause withdrawal symptoms after listening. You won't regret buying them, so click to listen now!!! The first book, I think the prison arc is excellent, depicting the female protagonist's growth. The second book has a female protagonist who is reborn into someone else's body—meaning in the same world, she becomes someone else. This kind of novel is quite rare, right? The female protagonist orchestrates everyone's choices and their outcomes; she's planned it all. The animals, bodyguards, and even the little buns are all described very interestingly. The third book has a female protagonist leading troops into battle and training soldiers; the live-action battlefield scenes are really exciting. The fourth and sixth books are similar in type; one has a single-world setting without a romantic pairing, while the other has a romantic pairing. Overall, the storylines are very well written. It's about fulfilling the wishes of deceased characters. The fifth book is a time-traveling livestream, which is quite different; it includes descriptions of leading troops into battle. The main appeal is that live streaming allows users to exchange items with people from other worlds. The female lead, upon transmigrating, revealed her true identity, stating she wasn't the original owner of the body and hasn't found a replacement yet. Whether there's a romantic pairing or not, I think the plot is very well-written, and there are no replacements. If you find any, please recommend them to me.

    Just finished reading it. It has a really strong aftertaste… * [Main Plot] (First of all, the entire book revolves around the main plot of revenge, and the protagonist is intelligent, logically sound, and well-developed. There are foreshadowing elements, and the ending is long-lasting.) Synopsis: A girl, consumed by injustice, makes a deal with a demon: she will use everything she has to destroy the "sun" fueled by human lives and money! When you discover the devilish side of your loved one… or when you swallow that "fruit of love" in despair… or when the thing you crave, called love, weaves all your resentment and despair into a blood-red net, slowly flowing… Please turn your gaze outside; the snow is still falling… * [Personal Experience] Moreover, I read 3/5 of this book and then, more than half a year later, I picked it up while browsing my bookshelf today. To my surprise, I not only hadn't forgotten the plot, but I quickly picked it up again (although I did find some minor foreshadowing and such in the comments section, since it had been quite a while). And it truly captivated me; it's a good novel, and it's worth my time… Personally, I think a truly good novel makes me believe that the characters in the book are simply living in another parallel universe, and I accidentally discovered their story, nothing more. I've finished reading it now, and I still feel a bit down sometimes. It'll probably be hard to find a book like this on Tomato Bookstore again. I feel like Eun-sun shouldn't have such a mysterious ending, yet I also feel that her and their ending should be like seeing the last leaf fall from a bare tree in winter… * [Warning] If you're just looking for a short-term thrill, or if you prefer lighthearted Korean romance, I don't recommend this book… because it has a lot of foreshadowing, and the whole story is quite interconnected, so it won't provide immediate satisfaction. * [Author's Writing Style] The author writes with a cinematic feel, immersing the reader in the story and making them visualize the scenes. If you've seen the Korean drama "Dark Glory," I feel this is the same vibe (not an exaggeration, it's really, really good). * [Notes] If you want to learn more, please refer to the synopsis. I'm not very good at explaining it because I feel its plot can't be condensed into a concise paragraph (the synopsis at the beginning is my own, but I recommend reading the author's synopsis). * [Ending Appreciation] But these are just everyone's guesses. No one knows where Xu Zhi'ai went. She was like a gust of wind that swept across the peninsula, leaving no trace. * —End— * (But I actually prefer the ending of the last chapter of the extra chapter because I only felt the story should have a happy ending after he (one of the main male characters) died, so I cut it out.) — The snow is still falling outside. * [Eun-sun, — I hope this pure white snow can bury the injustice and darkness, — I hope that in this pure white snow, you have reached the heaven of happiness.] (The last part is my personal reflection… it really has a strong aftertaste…) If you like this kind of theme, please take a look.

    Reader note

    The series features pictures of various spirit beasts, which are quite beautiful. The female lead is a bit silly. After Shi Ruyi, the sole descendant of the Xuanmen sect, reconstructs her physical body and descends the mountain, she suddenly realizes that hundreds of years have passed. Her only wish is to find the spirit beast cubs that have run away from home from the spirit beast register.
