    Reader note

    These stories perfectly embody the "beautiful, strong, tragic" trope, especially the kind where the protagonist puts on a brave face in front of everyone while their body is on the verge of collapse. Both of these involve a real young master returning home to find a fake in the family, realizing he has no place there (spoilers ahead). The first protagonist, near death, is injected with an incomplete drug with severe side effects, causing excruciating pain with each attack, but granting him immense strength and healing abilities. Because he doesn't want to die, he becomes the only person in the world to survive the injection. His biological parents happen to be developing this drug, leading the protagonist to return home and begin concealing everything. The second protagonist was kidnapped as a child, survived the battlefield, and became a war god, achieving victory despite his physical disabilities. Upon returning home, he is unwelcome; despite being the eldest brother, no one considers him a part of the family, showing no concern whatsoever. Therefore, no one notices that half of his eyes, arms, and legs are fake, or if they did, they might not care. If you know of any novels similar to these two, please recommend them to me. I'm desperate for something similar; I'm going crazy. [Flying kiss][Flying kiss][Sending heart]

    All five novels feature protagonists with weak constitutions. I highly recommend the first two. The first is an infinite flow novel where the protagonist is an evil god with his health locked at 0.5. The second features a protagonist who is reborn and grows stronger by betraying others' consciences. The third features a protagonist who is a writer whose ghost stories come true, resulting in a heart condition and paralysis. The fourth features a protagonist with a constant constitution of -1, but who is still very strong. The fifth features a protagonist with random debuffs.

    This is a pretty good book. The female lead is incredibly good at hiding her true feelings, but please note that the main character is female, a strong woman, with a small ensemble cast, a touch of being the darling of the group, and a touch of being universally adored (no romantic pairing, no ambiguous relationships, and no additions or breaks up any original couples). The female lead herself has a somewhat aloof and mature vibe, a bit cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and she has an alias that will be revealed later. The author is also very nice, liking almost every comment and even replying to some. Welcome everyone to read! [Requesting more updates!]
