Synopsis

Only when all the living perish, will there be peace



...



Apollo was a bratty noble. Using the power of his father, he did many mischievous stunts. However, he would never go too far. The worst he did was steal someone's shoe, while on the average, it would be poking them in the back and running off.



That's why he found it so absurd that someone would assassinate him, in his own room no less. He was stabbed in the back and left to die...



But then he was back in his room, completely fine. Yet, he was stabbed in the back once again.



Once he was stabbed in the back for the third time, the cruel reality began to sink in.



That this would repeat itself for an eternity.



The only thing in his room was his bed and his bokken, a wooden sword.



At some point, Apollo picked up the bokken.



He took his first steps to break out of the cycle.



And swore to bury the person who called for this assassin with his own hands.



...But also calls a lot of things mommy for some reason.

aUthor, YoU cLeaRy DOn'T unDeRstAnD sWoRdsMeN wHy WoUlD tHey LaUgH? Hey, author here. As of now, I have written 45 chapters, though they haven't all been posted. I have been having a lot of fun writing and even editing (which is normally a nightmare!). As such, it feels like I'm going against myself with this one-star review, but whatever, lol. Now, can I promise a perfect story? No, I do think there are some flaws in a multitude of areas, but it is one I have confidence in. So what is the plot? At first glance, this may seem like RE: zero dark version, but it's not that. The main character, Apollo, only dies repeatedly at the start. From there, he develops split personalities. One is a silly innocent child, and the other a psychotic murderer. His initial goal is revenge, but he does not know who exactly betrayed him. The first major story arc will be centered around this. The reason why I gave this novel the Evil Mc tag is because of how Apollo wishes to solve problems. He hates the world he lives in. For him, his solution was to destroy it. Apollo will experience what morals are and tends to solve his problems through mass murder. As for more details, they are spoilers, at least in my opinion. If I am being honest, I think writing this book is bad for my mental health, lol. Going through so many murders and freakouts can cause subtle changes to my mind. But, it's too fun to stop now. Hope you enjoy!

this is a hella good piece of ART. Don't mind the starting willow arc, where apollo is just starting out, when he snaps for real, the story goes from 100 to 1000 real quick. I would rate this a solid 10/5, classic piece. and the city massacre? *chef's kiss*

Its a fine story a bit fast paste but honestly im fine with that because the author keeps us interested in the mc state of mind and trying to see how well he will develop in the future

Description, the first thing is that he is a nice hero who got mad at stupidity and naivety, and by coincidence of the legendary (stupid) the assassin who tried to kill him of course would be a beautiful woman and so after he got mad from repeated killing attempts, he considered her his mother, yes his mother (No, you are wrong not because she is a beautiful woman only because he went crazy if He was a man who would be considered by his mother as the important thing) Of course, in combat, he becomes an unparalleled genius as is the case in other novels, but in the rest of the cases I am just a laughing idiot

Wonderful story, had me drawn in the whole 17 chapters that are currently released. The Idea of this story is one I haven't come across yet as but it tickles all my fancies. This review may be a bit too early but I want to write this now as to show the author that his story is something people enjoy, I've written some stories myself and I know how it feels when people are silent and don't say anything about your story. The writing quality is, as of so far, top quality. The grammar and vocabulary make the story flow fluent as is makes it so your attention isn't lost whilst reading. For the past six days 17 chapters have been uploaded, I don't know if the author stockpiled the chapters or simply writes fast with good quality but I'd say it is five star worthy. Story development is a bit of an iffy, because the story is in its early stage so I don't know how it will progress from here on out. But from what I have read so far I can say that it made sense, a bit fast paced but nothing I couldn't handle. Character design is very simple, with the theme of this story being that the Main character has lost his mind it would be evident that his design wouldn't be grandiose. There hasn't been enough time to really judge the side-characters fully by I enjoy it, though they are maybe a bit too accepting of the events that are currently happening, but that can be explained by the fact that they are living in a sort of utopia. World background is still vague but what can you expect when the story has just begun. Though it is shaping up to be something I know I will like. Conclusion, story is good and I like the concept. Definitely a read I recommend. Total rating : 4.4

Author San!!! u have completely lost me this time. Isn't this the prime example of stupidity and forced plot that he is trying to kill everyone else but doesn't even spare a glance to willow...i mean the original hate and resentment towards willow should have been WAYYYYYY more than any random stranger...i can't figure this out someone plzzz help me

One of the best fighting scene's author i've read, but it only has fights, very slowstory development, the adult version of the MC don't develop in the story, and when we finaly think we will understand the mystery the MC revert back to a child, is getting old, i'm in the 162 and almost dropping even tho i like the fights, but too much is too much
