Lost in Zero

Few first-person narratives can captivate me, but this one is clearly an exception. The author's writing style is unexpectedly delicate, and the characterization of Zero is very successful. Zero simply wants to survive; nothing else matters. What surprised me most was that despite being a gender-swapped cute loli, there's almost no trace of her past life; it's barely mentioned. Compared to some stories that constantly use gender-swapped characters to unleash their special abilities, this is refreshing and a highlight of the story. I felt a pang of sympathy for Zero. The story begins with the fall of her country and the destruction of her family; even though she's just a transmigrator, she's still confused and helpless. The scene where her mother protects Zero is quite touching; she genuinely loves Zero. Zero is very stubborn...

Author! You are truly heartless (Well done, no way!!) After reading the latest chapter, I finally couldn't help but say a few words. The author is really too much. I haven't recovered for several weeks after reading it. Before, it was just physical abuse and being chopped off in various ways. I originally thought that things would get better as Xiao Ling's strength improved. But what happened? In chapters: The Long Night (4) and The Long Night (End), Xiao Ling was trampled on both physically and mentally. Author, how can we readers who empathize with the protagonists when reading novels bear this?! (Crying, sobbing, whimpering, crying loudly) And Xiao Ling is still...

Which of your books wasn't abandoned?

Zero really has so many adorable traits. She sings terribly, can't cook, loves to complain, and is a little arrogant... Waaaaah, I can't go on. The more I talk about Zero's cuteness, the more my heart aches. In this empire more terrifying than fascism, darkness permeates everything, and Zero is used as a tool from beginning to end. She never thought of rebelling against the empire, always accepting her tragic fate and being manipulated, showing no mercy to anyone who might disrupt her peaceful life. Therefore, Zero has done many wrong things and is hated by many. The latest chapter makes it feel like Emggie and Zero might break up at any moment. Guess what will happen next: Zero fails to kill Emggie, and the two...

I've had this book for a long time (about a year). Although I really dislike time-travel novels, the author's writing style made me like this one. My reasons for disliking time-travel novels are: 1. Why does the protagonist have a cheat code when they time-travel? 2. If you can time-travel, why can't others? 3. They always use their past life memories to show how awesome they are in another world. 4. The protagonist's halo is too strong. At first, I wanted to drop the novel when I got to the part about time travel, but the author perfectly avoided my triggers, making me want to keep reading. (I personally prefer darker novels, and this one's portrayal of human nature is more realistic than others.) Although the author made the protagonist suffer in the latest chapters...

Zero, a lonely visitor from another world, mingled with the soul of "Zero," utterly out of place in this damned world. The War Slave was certain that Zero would only be met with rejection—rejection and deep-seated malice from the world! The future was no longer intangible; a tangible darkness engulfed Zero, but could it be so simple? Would Zero be allowed to rest in peace? Fate relentlessly pushed Zero forward, helplessly... Zero could not attain any happiness. He had lost his mother, his friends, those who loved him, the right to be human, the illusory light, everything... The happiness closest to Zero...

To be honest… I can't give my book a fair score, so I'll just give myself a 4 out of 10. By the way, let me explain why I'm giving it this score… First point: deduction for writing style. I don't think my writing is very good, and I always feel very casual when I'm writing. Occasionally, I'll write seriously, but every time I look at the monthly tickets my readers have given me before bed, I feel guilty… I think about writing well, but the next day, after a day's work, I have no motivation left… Writing style depends on attitude, and firstly, I haven't been serious…

I nurtured the book for over a year, thinking it was ready to be sold, but when I came back, the author was gone.

Did the author abandon this book?

So far, I feel like the protagonist is invincible, constantly getting utterly crushed by everyone... While it's supposed to be protagonist torture, aside from repeated defeats, it doesn't cause any real physical or mental damage. The protagonist forgets everything after a nap, so without feeling the torture, it's hard to evoke deep sympathy. If the author truly wanted to torment the protagonist, this kind of torture isn't enough; it needs to bleed them to the soul to move the reader. More psychological descriptions are needed. I don't like power-leveling novels, but the protagonist, despite being an assassin, lacks the style and mentality of one. He doesn't plan ahead or ambush enemies, and he never backs down from a direct confrontation. Although the assassins in *Akatsuki* and *Naruto*...
