    The first book, by Lemon (the other six are also incredibly tear-jerking), is about a reconciliation between a top student and a school bully. The second book tells the story of a lost protagonist who returns home to find someone has taken his place, along with all his love. Even after being diagnosed with leukemia, his parents and brother believe he's faking it. Everyone is busy preparing for the birthday party of the person who replaced him, but he returns to his small seaside town on New Year's Eve. As the New Year's bells ring, he falls into the sea at night. The third book depicts a broken body and a traumatized mind, with a scar that almost severed his waist. After regaining consciousness, he is sent to other worlds for missions, and his once happy family is erased. He suffers endless torment in countless reincarnations, experiencing countless pains and deaths, unknown to anyone. When he returns, he is exhausted, both physically and mentally, without the courage or strength to love again. He also felt unworthy of love (Little fish, little fish, swim quickly, freedom is everywhere; Little fish, little fish, swim quickly, a cage is everywhere). Fortunately, two people with missing souls met and gained a complete soul. The fourth book features a crazy, sickly beauty as the bottom and a gentle, fatherly top. The bottom initially hated the top because he could have died, but because of the top, he came back to life. A system appeared, allowing him to seduce the top. The bottom tried to commit suicide many times, but he always survived, only his body would deteriorate until he was powerless. The bottom actively approached the top, using methods he hated. The top said the bottom was degrading himself, but so what? He just wanted to seduce the top and then leave. Later, under the top's gentleness and subtle care, the bottom gradually became dependent on him. He knew he had to get away. The fifth book is about a bottom who everyone says is a villain, that he deserves to die, that he has no heart. But who knows that he has never experienced love?

    So, the first and third books you requested are both excellent. They're by the same author, and both build up to the despair before the bitterness arrives. Only after experiencing the sweetness do you realize how bitter the bitterness truly is. The first book is a continuous story, but it's not finished yet, so I suggest waiting a bit. Never mind, I guess I don't mind. The author updates too slowly. Even after a month of waiting, it'll only have two or three chapters. As for the third book, it's divided into two volumes. This is the second volume; the first volume is sweet, but the second part is pure angst—it's brutally cruel, relentlessly cruel until you're almost dead.

    It's been hurting so much, even recalling the glorious past hurts, and what hurts even more is believing that the beauty and pain of the past were a mistake. The writing is truly superb; every description and portrayal constantly speaks to the underlying sorrow beneath the surface! Absolutely wonderful.
