Turning Paper Effigies into Soldiers, I Went Straight After Years as a Villain

This protagonist is way too weak. Anyone who successfully cultivates an evil path can easily defeat those below them and even those above them using their unorthodox magic. But this protagonist is the opposite. You know, the characteristics of evil paths are rapid and bizarre results. Anyone who doesn't know better would think the protagonist is cultivating righteous techniques.

The uncle owes money, but his nephew and niece have to pay it off. The protagonist and the author are truly kind people.

To be honest, the author's writing is quite good, and the ideas are insightful. But this plot just feels a bit strange. However, it's clear the author intends to satirize reality, so it's quite good if you treat this book as some kind of bizarre fiction.

I finally finished reading it and tried it out. To sum it up in two words, I'd say it's pathetic. I don't know what the author was trying to express, but all I saw was patheticness.

From the moment I met that monk, the rest of the story felt incredibly toxic.

The protagonist's intelligence doesn't seem to belong to a modern adult...

Speechless. The protagonist is neither good nor evil, and his thoughts are inexplicable. In the story, someone deliberately ruined the family's feng shui, causing their family to fall into ruin, while the villain rose to prominence, even divorcing his wife and remarrying. Years later, the victim learned of this and sought revenge, resulting in the villain's family being destroyed.

For those who prefer a saintly protagonist and prefer dark fantasy themes, this is a good time to leave.

The so-called sibling relationship at the beginning already deterred most people, including me. Having just transmigrated, there's no way I could have feelings for someone. Even if I did, I'd find a way to erase them. Such superfluous emotions are practically self-destructive; would I still be myself then? I should go talk to that tycoon and see if I can sell my sister for a better price. Wouldn't that be better? You're happy, I'm happy, everyone's happy.

This book is truly frustrating. I don't expect someone to be invincible, but at least cultivating evil arts to eliminate enemies shouldn't be difficult, especially for someone like me who practices the underworld and absorbs death energy—such a rapid advancement technique is incredibly difficult to master.
