I'm glad to see that volume 2 wasn't a fluke despite this being amazing in a different manner than volume 2....more

While the first volume was a solid start and got me excited for more, this cemented it as truly great. Here we have a familiar setting/premise main character knowledgeable about game in particular gets warped into the world and uses that knowledge to blah blah blah* and it's following the more ruthless protagonist that's more common in Chinese works but has been getting more popular elsewhere as of late.
Well this time they have actually successfully sold the sociopathic main character to me, it's also great that he isn't needlessly violent it's just that he doesn't care he is out for power, but that's not entirely what this volume is about.
This volume is mostly about him and his co-conspirator dealing with their growing feelings towards each other, yes it's a romance between 2 completely power hunger sociopaths and how they come to the understanding that they both of power or "authority" as they call it more than each other. This culminates in the last 2 chapters as one of the most bizarre love confessions and an absolutely insane reveal to someone else trying to manipulate them.
The volume also leaves a lot open for future volumes and really cemented that things are about to get way crazier and the main character will not have such an easy time in the future.
*hey at least it's not one of those awful cheat ones that's been popular lately...more
