    It's alright, but it feels a bit unrealistic. Many parts are overly idealistic, and there are quite a few plot holes designed to highlight the main character.

    I regret staying up all night to read part of it; the writing was mediocre, and I didn't feel any charm from the protagonist. Only the first instance was alright. The later dungeon storylines were poorly developed and felt forced and abrupt. The plot progresses by having a key NPC recount their past to the cat? Can just anyone be considered a core NPC? When you look at a cat, it's neither cute nor adorable; when you look at a human, it's just silly... It's all thanks to the comments section that it's being praised, which is really quite awkward. But the protagonist keeps dominating other players, while his teammates drag him down.

    It wasn't to my taste, probably because it's a quick transmigration story. The character development lacked charm, and the supporting characters' excessive praise of the protagonist's achievements was a bit awkward. It made me think, "Oh, that's impressive," but I didn't feel anything.
