Each small world may or may not have a romance. This isn't a conventional wish-fulfillment story: in every world, he simply lives his own life. The novel is complete, and unfortunately, the typos can no longer be fixed. (ToT) Also, I'm not a studio. No studio updates this slowly. Since readers keep mixing up the protagonist's name with the names in the small worlds, from now on the protagonist's name in each world will match the name used there, with 27.3kReads8.9Score1.7kShelves

    Reader note

    The first book is a "cool" novel, practically an invincible one; the protagonist's boasting is incredibly satisfying and natural. The second book simply shows the author is completely immersed in their own art. Highly recommended!!! The third book is a family-themed novel; the plot doesn't drag, the writing is excellent with no major flaws, and it's a book you can keep reading.
