You know, in a good story, this MC would be perfect as a tragic antagonist who trying to destroy the world but truly believes that by doing so, he will save it. But because this isn't even Japanese, it's a Korean isekai, it's our MC. So, because of this, he blindly trusted the 'system' and destroyed the world.

Ah, it's so good when you can see the quality of the writing from the beginning, not after 20-30 chapters.

Cool, I don't think anyone cares about you though, so you should probably work on that.

So like, the MC is the descendent of a isekai rando??

 

[BadHaremSchollar]

The Isekai ancestor is supposed to be a random Korean guy, but if he looks just like webtoon protagonist sample 3 the effect is kinda lost.

I dunno, that makes him feel like a random guy to me.

How I imagine the person/entity in-universe when they came up with the scenario of the hero being required to destroy the world and the people close to him remembering (which he only learns afterwards):

I mean that is kind of the point. He is a random webtoon protagonist 3 because he is the hero who saved the world. Now we have the story of his descendants

Did you ever considered to go fuck yourself?
Toxic scum.

Anyway, totally forgot what I was reading by the end there. So much for a happy ending.

Geez, I'm glad I could impact you so heavily.

Honestly, I think you're completely right. When even the character's reaction is "wtf this is stupid", you know it's contrived.

I think MC was dumb for taking his ancestor's word that he had to turn evil to get the golden ending, though.

This is like a meal starting at the dessert. The premise is interesting but the author didn't really want to bother making people care about a story without the twist. It could've been much better paced had it used the traditional isekai protagonist rather than some weird ghost who instantly convinces a kid to destroy the world. Build up the world, who the protagonist is, how the heroines are, and so on. The initial arc doesn't even need to be dramatically long, just enough to make the betrayal parts hurt. Hint early on at the beginning whats to happen, just a drip feed, make it so the protagonist is reasonably sold on becoming hitler-judas for a timeline to save the world, and make people understand (and ideally fear) the heroines.

I'd have simply done an even more drip feed opening to get people locked in, follow up with a normal arc where along with OP heroines they pretty much complete stomp the demon king in like 6-10 chapters but are sent into a loop at the end. He tries a dozen or so times, pairs off with each, even soloing at one point, pairing with random side characters, even goes on a buddy cop arc with a traveling merchant bro; gradually turn up the frustration each chapter attempt. Another 20-30 chapters, where the solution is gradually fed over each loop. Then he finally has an epiphany, or perhaps has gone utterly insane: destroy the world to break the curse, and then fulfill your duty.

All this just so when the dumb game UI panel is like "oh yeah dawg they remember lol" you know that he is going to have to jump out that fucking window 2 seconds ago. From there its a collection of "oh shit" moments, where he really is more or less surviving while trying to kill the demon king. Vaguely vibes of a rogue spy movie plot ideally.

cant even go five minutes without flat out saying the plot, can't have out character find out organically that they ladies want to kill him

 

[Elki]

I have to agree with a lot of the sentiment here. Why the hell would you just go along with everything that was told you when you were 10? That is pretty wild to go on a planetary rampage, killing the people you love most because the ghost of your ancestor told you to do it.

I need more characterization than that before going into all of this.

 

[Kampfarsch]

This is actual complete fucking garbage

 

[rexmundi]

you ded, young man

 

[Palolo]

Oh no! Images of grown women I don't know (he's still 10yo) have red stains on them.
IT'S VERY TRAUMATIC!

 

[HopelessReader]

Well, I think that this manhwa as a standalone won’t be very good, but as someone who has read the novel, this is quite good cause a lot of stuff is conveyed much better in the novel. (you should read it)

 

[SuplexSensei]

Good thing I'm reading this just for the unga-bunga drama, so my brain automatically added in some filler to make the betrayal scenes and twists hit hard right from the get-go.

That's... when you know the series' writing is questionable. I'm still loving the premise tho.

Now what will MC do....

 

[Adpa]

I don't understand the haters smh
