The male lead levels up, fights monsters, and speaks in a super funny way. The plot is smooth and the logic is clear. Highly recommended! Fourth book: The female lead's road to counterattack. It's about a strong female lead who is unwilling to give up and has ambition and ability, and she's always working hard. Recommended! I was quite excited reading it. Fifth book: Infinite flow ocean novel. The plot flows naturally, and the male lead is also human. Sixth book: Pure love! The female lead is very smart and super powerful. The couple doesn't interact much, but it's sweet and reassuring.
