   Reader note

   This book is truly disappointing because of its title. The author's writing is excellent, the character descriptions of each beast are particularly well done, the plot is skillfully arranged, and the writing style is witty and humorous [laughs][laughs][laughs]. There are no brainless villains, and the protagonist is both intelligent and lucky. It's a great read.

    Reader note

    The current trend of beast-taming novels is like falling into a cliché: the protagonist's cheat code is always the "Eye of Truth," which allows them to scan and aid in evolution. Then, the protagonist inevitably contracts a pet that nobody believes in, and somehow discovers its evolved form. It's all the same; sometimes you can predict the ending just by reading the beginning. Of course, most of these end badly! The first book: The protagonist has no system, relying solely on their awakened "Shared" talent to diligently cultivate and nurture a unique beast. It shows you that even without cheat codes, with this perseverance, the protagonist will eventually rise to power!
