The heroine in the first book is just a bad guy, but she is the kind of bad, bad for a reason and has a reason. The heroine in the second book is just a psycho.(▔,▔)ㄏThe most important thing is the kind of psycho that steals the male protagonist's role. Do you understand the sadistic male protagonist who destroys the world? In the third book, all I can say is that the male and female protagonists have switched roles?

The plot is novel and combines various types of overlord stories. It is very funny. The male protagonist is the female protagonist's boss and has a crush on the female protagonist. The female protagonist is very enterprising and works hard even when she is with the male protagonist later. The female protagonist is not stupid and sweet and is not in love.

I really enjoyed reading it. The heroine in the first book is not silly and sweet at all, and is even a bit sinister. The second book is about rebirth in the apocalypse, which is also good-looking. The heroine is particularly A. The third book is a comic about the entertainment industry. Sister Yu VS the adopted brother is good-looking. In one word, rush! [Eat melon]
