After reading many werewolves and/or system novels, I decided to give this one as my first review. I've read most of the existing reviews and decided to give my 2 cents.

Writing: Yeah, I can see why some people dislike it. The writing at the beginning does justify the negative reviews. I personally didn't mind it as much since I (slowly) skimmed through it. It got better for the later chapters and I can see the author's effort to improve. Regardless, the writing is nothing stellar but not horrible either (for the later parts that is). The use of onomatopoeias is pretty excessive for my liking personally but I understand the author's intention for the tone of the novel to be much more casual. After some amount of re-reading, it certainly has somewhat grown on me.  

Plot: I think the story is fantastic. It doesn't have a strong start (after the main character got the system). I did not enjoy the school setting very much, but that's just my personal taste. However, things get increasingly more enjoyable as the story advances further. I really like the psychological mind games between the protagonist and the antagonists here, albeit sometimes it gets slightly dragged out a bit. Also, I would love to see some hints or appearances of the werewolf who killed his parents since it was the main antagonist after all.

Characters: The main character is the reason why I'm in love with this novel. Sure, he's certainly not the brightest sometimes, but I love everything else about him. Unlike most MCs I came across, he's not some ordinary high school twink who suddenly found supernatural powers. Even before the appearance of the system, the dude was an absolute menace, being in the military force against supernaturals as a normal human. He's very cunning and ruthless, which is extremely fitting for a werewolf. Other than the MC, the females are quite lacking. Harem is not my cup of tea so I'm glad that this one is not too overbearing.

World building: The setting is pretty good. The world building is not heavy as it adds bits and pieces as the story goes on through the MC's missions. I really like the war-like atmosphere with a magi-tech world.

Overall, while it is not the best, it is certainly very enjoyable. I am currently and will continue to purchase privileged chapters and support the author.

PS: If you are dissapointed with this novel, I HIGHLY suggest "The Harvester"

Swallowed Star is decent but nowhere near as good as Legendary Mechanic. Swallowed Star MC has a very kind and caring personality, personally it didn't feel as if he had a strong drive. Han Xiao was much better.

Hahaha...it's lockdown here bro.....what can I do ....not even allowed to walk in the park....n don't worry...you misunderstood me... I am actually not reading novels but listening them.... reading is tiring job...this way I can finish 100 chapters just in a day in two or three hours....I am not 24 h phone addict hahaha....I study n do daily chores n any other normal thing too..hahaha but thanks for asking anyways...you are nice man

Overall, the writing is solid. My issue is the unnecessary dragging of the most:the fl’s identity as an heiress of the wealthiest family. I read up until the 600th chapter, and the weak villains still exist. What’s the point of having money, power, and influence when she allows the roaches (a family that doesn’t even rank on the third tier, according to the novel) to continue with their low-level schemes?

the concept of the medieval or mythological era made it felt like an epic the I liked the concept of the type of deities, the writing was easily acceptable, the way the story was going was flawless, the author has done his work well.

THERE ARE SOME SPOILERS.

Nothing major just about how the mc acts and some reasons explaining the points of why I am wanting to drop. (Hopefully the author can clear some of it up?)

The two major problems for me that stand out above everything else, that is making me want to drop are, When does he stop becoming a slave to his "uncle"? I just cbf to waste any more time on this if doesn't stop soon. I mean he should already have his doubts about him already.

From all his supposed intelligence the mc was shown to have during the earlier chapters, it's baffling how he doesn't have some doubts. His town was supposedly killed by beasts but he is magically the only one still alive? He doesn't remember anything but when he does or tries to it is painful?

He should have had his doubts in his "uncle" considering these facts but still believe in him considering all the time they spent together. However, it should have become frighteningly clear that something is wrong after speaking to Lan.

Let's not forget what he called the uncle and even hinted at why. But the most important thing is he learnt about the soul/mental technique. He can make someone kill themselves, take their memories etc. This should have made it glaringly obvious and confirmed his doubts about something about his uncle is wrong. He should know that if he can do it, what is stopping an even stronger person doing it to him? Or is he so fcking arrogant to ignore this?

He should have realised that his supposed memory loss is because of a soul/mental technique. Then adding on all the other clues he has been given then he should rly be starting to doubt his "uncle" and start realising some of the truth...

However, it's like let's just ignore all that and keep the mc as a dog/slave/pet of the uncle. Make the mc seeth with rage everyone says something to discredit his master and be a good little pet and make him proud...

I honestly can't stand it and rly want the author to just get on with it. The whole memory, adding on with all these clues should have acc lead to something.

Another thing is the whole rage thing... I liked his other personality better. Where he didn't care about what others thought. Ignored them and only went after people who are directly after him. Now lately it's just been the mc acting like a fcking madman for no reason.

I'm guessing it's because of the scripture or his special body that is giving him the rage. It was mentioned it was half the rage and the other half was him the calm side so maybe he has a beast side?

However, how long does this last, when or does he reach a balance? I don't want to read about a psychopath madman that just wants to kill everything... compared to his first personality its a difference between night and day.

I dunno just cbf to read about an mc losing control constantly going on a rampage every time he fights... plus it always starts or ends with the mc always smiling EVERY SINGLE TIME. Like we get it he is crazy. Do you have to mention the smile that everyone notices but him every time he fights or about to battle??

But yeah, prefer the mc having some intelligence like it was made out he had but in reality, he doesn't...

Yeah, anyway gl to Author
