   Reader note

   The male protagonist's system is incredibly satisfying. He unlocks 20% of the Asura progress at the start, and his combat power jumps another 30% within a dozen chapters. At this rate, his combat strength will be maxed out within a century. However, combined with the setting that the human world only has ten years left, it instantly creates a sense of urgency, like a countdown to the apocalypse. The romance is handled subtly; although there's an ambiguous older sister and many other women, the male protagonist remains steadfastly "blind to his own eyes and heart," focusing on leveling up in the main storyline, ensuring the story stays on track. Overall, the pacing is brisk, the system isn't exploitative, and the supporting characters are vivid, making it an easy and enjoyable read. [Sparrow's Masterpiece]
