    Actually, I didn't read much of the second book, and it's only up to chapter 50-something. I was mainly drawn in by the cover. However, even though I've only read a few chapters, I think it's pretty good. My current impression is quite positive, and all of these are non-CP (couple) friendship-oriented stories, which is the best! As for the fourth book, some people might feel that the female lead is a bit stifled as a weapon, and there's also a young master suppressing her. But actually, this young master is quite obedient, and overall, there's nothing stifled except for the initial lack of understanding of the superpower world, which caused her to suffer a bit. I haven't seen anything else, and there's no abuse of the protagonist (this is just my personal opinion, please don't criticize if you disagree; everyone's feelings are different, so please don't hold a grudge against me).
