Anyway, I'm Just a Demon King Who Likes to Slack Off

Returning to familiar territory, this was the first book that sparked my interest in "Transformation," but I abandoned it later because I only wanted to see the romance between Eri and Yuuki, which the author dragged out for ages, and for various other reasons (poor budget). I've read many books since then, including many excellent ones, but this one remains a true gem. Even though I don't know the ending, isn't that what a gem is all about? [Sfem:7:439]

Why aren't you updating anymore?

This book is indeed one of the top-tier "reincarnation" novels on this site, and it's my favorite. However, it also evokes mixed feelings in me, preventing me from delving deeper into other reincarnation novels for several years. I'm a sentimental person, and Huilu's experience seems tragic and depressing to me. Huilu has significant family conflicts and lives a relatively impoverished life away from home. She pretends to be a bad kid to escape some of the family pressure, but in her third year of junior high, she transforms into a little devil, suddenly becoming a woman—and not just any woman, but a non-human being—making her almost incomprehensible to everyone. She can only bear the pressure of life, concealing all her secrets and avoiding contact with anyone except the male protagonist. ...

[For those who don't want to read my brief personal experience, start from the third-to-last paragraph] The main storyline of this book is actually complete. From being a problem child in the eyes of his parents to the family reunion and the parents gradually understanding him, the story can be considered finished. However, the author probably followed the timeline up to his marriage. I initially stumbled upon this book while browsing Pineapple Buns, and the story and experiences described in it resonated strongly with me. It touched on my longing for understanding, love, more friends, freedom from rejection by those around me, and not just being someone who spends all their time chatting online. My family is...

What's the biggest market for online novels? It's the "feel-good" novels, yes, it's all about the thrill. Traditional ones like *Battle Through the Heavens*, mid-period ones like *A Certain Scientific Railgun*, newer ones like *Mystery of the Unknown*, and others like *Little Hill*, what's the most prominent feature? It's the thrill. No matter what kind of novel you read, if you enjoy it, it means you've got your thrill points, and this is well demonstrated in most parts of this story. The author knows how to provide sweet moments and balance fantasy and slice-of-life. But here's the problem: the protagonist's setbacks and mishaps, which in most novels are used to drive the main plot, are instead a source of suffering. Why the angst? Because the plot needs to develop; the protagonist can't stay in one place forever, so...

To be honest, I couldn't accept the little devil returning home. Firstly, it's contradictory; it's absurd that he hasn't severed ties with his parents despite having no expectations of them anymore. Secondly, it doesn't make sense that he went back because of his siblings and other loved ones. It's like a burning forest getting rained on – how can they coexist? Either the rain stops and the fire continues, or the fire stops and the rain continues; in the end, the destroyed forest can't recover. I'd rather see the idiot hope come knocking and steal his wife, or the little devil simply continuing his old life without his parents' interference...

Hey, if you come back, just say 'men'.

The female lead might be a little conflicted at first, but she becomes incredibly easygoing in the mid-to-late game. The male lead is unconditionally doting on her. It's basically all sorts of cute and adorable scenes, and various suggestive moments, but it never crosses any lines. For now, it's best viewed as a cute anime. However, the various sensual scenes and gameplay were truly refreshing. It might have a slightly weak ending later on, but overall, it's perfectly fine as a lighthearted, sweet after-dinner read.

I initially clicked on the novel out of curiosity, but as I read on, I realized I'm probably quite similar to Eiro. As an only child, I've always been strictly disciplined, with my family placing their hopes on me. My parents often argued, and I never really felt the warmth of home. Knowing my parents worked hard and our family wasn't wealthy when I was little, and after several times my desires weren't fulfilled, I almost stopped hoping for anything (like going on a trip or buying me something I wanted). Compared to my two cousins, I'm probably quite envious of them. Like Eiro, I often wish I could be treated like a girl...

This is ridiculous! Why do you like to have your younger sister provide fan service? You've turned a pure romance into a harem story. If this were a new book, it would be a smash hit.
