   Reader note

   Although these books weren't very popular, I still really liked them. The first one had a protagonist who was the sixth child in his family and didn't follow the usual rules. The second one had a protagonist who initially stayed to accompany his younger sister while she was studying, but ended up becoming even stronger than her. The third one had a protagonist who rebelled in a world of strange rules, doing the opposite of what was right and wrong. The fourth one had a protagonist who was a transmigrator and a clone of his mother, making him the darling of the group. The fifth one had a system mission involving soul transmigration, and all the male protagonists had "golden fingers" (cheat codes), while the female protagonist was completely... Hilarious.
