   Can you say that Teacher Brass Revolver's writing has a down-to-earth, old-money vibe? [Let me see] He's a domineering CEO, but not a Mary Sue; his writing is full of upper-class extravagance while also touching on the hardships of the working class. Yan Zhu, I feel sorry for you… such a delicious, non-subjective death escape! I still prefer this kind of forced death escape that isn't a deliberate deception; that's what makes the pursuit of a wife so satisfying! [Rainbow fart] It's full of tension, a mature romance. The original protagonist was portrayed with some contradictions, but I personally think that makes it more three-dimensional. Great writing!

   The first-person narrative is incredibly deceptive; though a subtle unease lingers, the truth remains elusive. While Kobayashi-sama often uses hellish jokes to depict suffering, it's perhaps the most merciful approach, because even such humorous language, when confronted with so much profound hardship, evokes deep sympathy and sorrow. I rarely read first-person narratives, but the few I have are utterly captivating! The author's mastery of classical Chinese is also phenomenal; I don't fully understand it, but the writing is brilliant. JJ, what are you doing? How can such high-quality writing be so unpopular!

The depiction of humanity and the lingering existence of civilization after the collapse of order is the most shocking part of this story.

    As usual, you can jump right in without a romantic pairing in "Dangerous Fire," but I mean if you can handle the sudden, agonizing moments that contrast sharply with the earlier lighthearted and cheerful plot... This one is actually a bit better than "Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic," not to the point of being heart-wrenching. Except for Old Deng, the main characters who shouldn't have died survived, so it's not that the story is unsatisfactory, but everyone's ending leaves a slight sense of regret. It's about a choice between freedom and family, and also about personal choice versus the greater good.

    The female lead suffered a lot of battle damage, which was very satisfying (XP). It's clear the author possesses exceptional writing skills. It's not about blindly following Western trends, but rather about capturing the pure, authentic feel of a Japanese ukiyo-e style light novel. The Western fantasy elements are also stunningly epic; if the author wanted to create a bard character, it would be a piece of cake! Furthermore, some of the life lessons resonated deeply with me, coinciding with my own occasional observations in life. The only drawback is that it's not entirely captivating; due to the female lead's character and the author's narrative style, it sometimes feels a bit rushed and unfocused. However, these flaws don't detract from its overall excellence; it's still a very good work!

    The character is sickly and weak, and quite severely so. Personally, I'm not a big fan of characters with physical weakness like those suffering from colds, fevers, or mental illnesses (well, I do prefer characters who are more physically robust), but the author writes very well, especially the lecture section where the protagonist's speech is very insightful and worth reading.
