    Reader note

    I recommend clicking in to read this, otherwise it's too messy... These are the books I've enjoyed since I got into this genre (my reading time is the best proof, haha). Here, I'll introduce them to you in the simplest terms. ①②③ Are all fanfiction of *The Grave Robbers' Chronicles*. I haven't read *The Grave Robbers' Chronicles*, but I really like these three. The author's settings and writing style really resonate with me! You can read them even if you haven't read the original works, don't worry about that. Let me explain them separately: ① is a time-travel story, but not a quick transmigration one. There are multiple identities, and the protagonist also describes the psychological activities he acts out, making it very immersive. Moreover, the identities don't have their own consciousness; the protagonist controls them to act out his purpose. I highly recommend it, but the only downside is that it's a new book and relatively short, but it's still worth reading for a while. If you're willing to follow updates, you can check it out. However, ① will draw hatred to the protagonist, potentially turning them into a villain in the eyes of others. If you can't accept that, don't bother reading it. ② And ③ are the same story, split into two books, probably because the author wanted to start another book halfway through to increase exposure (I'm guessing). Please note❗️The tags are given by the platform; there is no pure romance or dual male leads!!! If you don't accept dual male leads, don't miss out on a good book just because of the tags! This one is a time-travel story, not a quick transmigration one; you can only go home afterward. This one is better than ①. Personally, I think the character development, story completeness, writing style, and character personalities are all better and more perfect than ①. It might also be because ① is relatively short, and I haven't quite figured it out yet, hahaha. But ① is still very good; if you accept these settings, you can check it out. ② And ③ are different from ①. This one only has one identity; the main body is lying in a coffin, and the main body and the identity cannot move at the same time. In other words, the world setting of ① is that the protagonist can control his main body and multiple identities simultaneously, while ② and ③ can only do so in rotation. The protagonist is very concerned about his image, but he's truly beautiful, strong, and tragic. He started as an actor, but later his suffering became genuine. The protagonists all have pain shielding, so I think this kind of suffering isn't physical, but psychological—the kind of suffering where a hundred years have passed and he still can't go home; going home has become an obsession. This book is really well-written! A hint: it has a cinematic feel to it! And it doesn't explicitly describe the psychological activities the protagonist is acting out. The biggest differences between ① and ②③, in my opinion, are these: 1. The use of alternate identities, as I mentioned; 2. The "acting." ① Focuses on creating a non-existent family and resurrecting after gaining a certain amount of acting points. The protagonist needs to create their own script and act according to it. ②③ Are different. This book uses interference with the plot and things in the tomb to gain energy. Once enough energy is available, one can return to their original world. Therefore, ②③ doesn't require a complete script; the protagonist's acting is just constantly covering up lies. So ②③ doesn't have a complete script; it's more of a mental construct, and sometimes even the protagonist doesn't know what others are imagining. In short, if you enjoy watching the protagonist act out the entire plot and relish the satisfaction of digging plot holes and then resolving them, choose ①; if you enjoy imagining a tragic, strong, and beautiful protagonist, choose ② or ③ for everyone's benefit. ④ This one features a protagonist who transmigrates into a comic book. He is resurrected through blah blah blah (I forgot the details, but you can check the first chapter). Actually, transmigration novels all follow the same formula, haha, but that's not important and doesn't have much to do with the main plot. This is a new book, and although the story hasn't unfolded yet, it still really touched my heart. Actually, I felt a little awkward at first because I have severe social anxiety, but after reading for a while, I realized it was only a little bit, and then it disappeared; just bear with it. This one has superpowers, and it's very good. I won't go into details, just read it! If you don't like it, come back and find me. ⑤ This book almost deterred me because it's a quick transmigration anime novel, since I never watch anime. But the plot really resonated with me, so I had to grit my teeth and read it, sob sob… Okay, let's get to the serious introduction. It's about beautiful, strong, and tragic characters, written in a forum style. Currently, it's set in two worlds: Demon Slayer and Cursed Resurrection, which I'm currently following. Recommended. ⑥⑦ This is by the same author, in the same genre, with two male leads. If you're sensitive to these, don't read it. The main character is the bottom, and everything is an act. The author will also write about the characters' inner thoughts, making it very immersive and easy to cry over. What attracted me to this book was the angst and the protagonist's satisfaction in manipulating people's hearts. ⑧ Romance, very eccentric, with some old tropes (because it's from an earlier work). If you mind these, don't read it. It's set in the entertainment industry, with a strong logical timeline. Use it for relaxation. ⑨ The theme is very novel. What attracted me was the theme and the original worldview. The writing style was a bit rough at first, but it improved a lot later. I won't reveal the worldview here, but it's different from typical transmigration novels. This one is richer and clearer. Highly recommended!! ⑩ Enough said, it's a universally acclaimed good book. ⑪ It's about a strong, tragic hero who returns from an undercover operation in northern Myanmar, tragically handsome, and a time-traveling story without a system. Okay, that's all. I've been typing for over an hour… If you've read this far, I want to say thank you! You're really patient. I hope everyone can find a book they like.

    It's great, highly recommended! Although it's not finished yet, it's really super good and I highly recommend everyone read it. The main character is a succubus, the kind that's universally adored, but she's intelligent, super cute, handsome, and charming. The supporting characters are also fantastic, including a female knight, a childhood sweetheart (the kind with a handsome "husband"), a childhood friend (who's also a tall, handsome male "wife"), a high-IQ villain... The "fake dagger" part might not be entirely accurate; there are a few real daggers. The whole story is mostly sweet and funny, very enjoyable and exciting.
