   I also hoped my work would reach a 9.6 Rating, but although it didn't, I'm working hard to improve it [currently working on a draft][currently working on a draft][currently working on a draft][currently working on a draft]. Today, I'm mainly recommending my own works. The first is my new work, updated frequently, and already over 300,000 words. The second is an older work, over 800,000 words, aiming for a million-word mark, and updated very quickly as well. The two works have different styles, so it depends on personal preference. The other works are ones I personally enjoyed and wanted to recommend to everyone. Sometimes, you can't judge a book's quality just by its rating. If you read carefully, even though many authors aren't top-tier writers and their works aren't necessarily the best, we're not exactly perfect readers, are we? If we had a higher level of education, we probably wouldn't be reading online novels but rather financial news, right? So, often, authors write for us for free, so we should read carefully. If we don't like it, we can leave quietly; if we think it's okay, we can give it a good review to show our support. This is what I truly feel as an author. Thank you for your support!
