The monetary system collapsed from the start. The protagonist's monthly rent was 3 gold pounds for a small single room, and food cost 1 gold pound—it was absurd. Ordinary families in the story earned less than 3 gold pounds a month, and even a wealthy merchant only earned 40 gold pounds a month, yet they could live in large villas, employ servants, and eat lavish meals.
Why choose this sequence if the protagonist doesn't want to perform? And instead of increasing their share through performance, they have to constantly find ways to prevent themselves from losing control due to not performing. It's heartbreaking to watch. The role of the cheater is not obvious, and they are not very good at hiding their identity. I'm giving up!
The biggest flaw in this book is that the protagonist dislikes the "actor" path, yet chooses it without learning how to adapt to it. The author's original plan was to choose a path that allowed the protagonist to develop and adapt to improve their strength and advance. The protagonist's choice of the "actor" path, despite disliking it, leads to his corruption.
I was lured in by the introduction. The early Earth content is practically nonexistent, probably only making up a few percent. Looking at the table of contents later, it seems there's a lot more Earth-related content. I think the author's approach is completely reversed. They didn't focus on highlighting the exciting moments on Earth when the protagonist was weak, and now that they're stronger, the exciting moments on Earth are greatly reduced.
Self-made cover version 2.0
Prime Minister, protagonist, tentacles and all
The protagonist of this otherworldly story is a clown, no wonder his name is "Fish Eater." His heart and everything else were stolen, his otherworldly existence was exposed, and all the power he transmitted was intercepted by the enemy. The author is truly amazing.
Jumping directly from the mystery/mystery genre to urban entertainment is a recipe for disaster. The target audiences for these two genres are completely different. Someone wanting an entertainment-oriented story might find the Cthulhu/mystery theme unreadable at the beginning, while someone wanting the Cthulhu/mystery theme might find themselves unable to continue reading after the Truman and Pope fusion, as the story then becomes entirely urban entertainment.
This book is bound to be a hit; isn't it better than the bestsellers?
The first page makes me feel like prices are about to collapse. Is this book any good? Can someone reply? I'm not reading it for now.
I'll just say one thing: this book is bad. Who agrees? Who disagrees? 😏😏😏
