   This book [shy] features a male protagonist who isn't always smiling; instead, he appears somewhat dazed to others. He suffers from amnesia and has multiple personalities, each capable of achieving remarkable success. [Attention] The premise is very interesting, and his cheat ability is quite impressive. In the ghost story genre, it's all about "being ignorant enough to be immune to everything." The author's ghost story quests and side quests are quite engaging. I particularly enjoyed the second quest; the first was humorous, while the second had a touch of warmth. [Attention][shy][shy][shy]
