Description

[I was reborn as the cutest dungeon core ever, but now have to defeat the terrible Demon Queen with the power of love, while dodging a growing crowd of devoted and occasionally overbearing romantic suitors before anyone (including me) figures out how feelings are supposed to work!]

What happens when the forces of darkness aren’t fought with swords and magic but rather with overwhelming wholesomeness?

Reborn in a magical new world that is corrupted by evil, a girl’s lost soul transforms into a bright, bubbly, impossibly soft ‘dungeon core’ named Cherish! With her magical charm and overbearing cuteness, she quickly draws in a trove of brave, prickly, bashful, and totally lovable friends who are unable to resist her as she finds her mission: fight to repel the world-swallowing corruption and heal those hurt by the forces of evil!

With the ability to summon the softest things, cutest snacks, and only the exceptionally fluffiest of critters, Cherish, the most adorable dungeon core in the entire world, will need to save the day the only way she can, with her arsenal of pudding, cakes, teddy bears, and her dashing knight-generals!

But in a magical world filled with wicked monsters, eager adventurers, and the dark corruption of the terrible Demon Queen, does this new, ridiculously bright and perhaps, somewhat toothless, girl even stand a chance against such dangerous odds? Can friendship, forgiveness, and a dungeon made only out of pillows, cotton candy, and strawberries hold fast against every (very) hungry shadow in the world that has turned her way?

Find out in this adorable, chaotic, Otome-infused dungeon core litRPG from renowned fantasy author D.M. Rhodes, who can sink no lower than this!

First chapter and can already tell that this is going to be good. Descriptions are very competent and the start of the chapter was one of the most relatable I've read in a while so that was a good hook. Looking forward to reading more. However I want justice for Flower 🌹

Story has such relatable writing with all the feelings that everyone commonly feel and get them in memes. I like how the girl was pretty relatable and there was lots of commedy with halo trailing like a subordinate and her doing everything "adorably" was pure gold which blend sooo nicely and gave perfect balance with danger, I vibes with it all. Girl commentary and inner thoughts with flower were extremely hilarious though. I like how it was all extremely soft and fluffy, I got the mental image of such soft and fluffy furry picture I wanted to dive in that and squeeze and squish specially when bunny put his head in her lap and hopped in her lap, his floppy cute ears hitting her legs when he shook his head, like gosh 🥰🥰🥰🥰. And in the end it was specially very wholesome and vibes of a warm sun morning in winters when everyone cuddles together and not fearing about future and dangers 💗. Literally makes a person envy the aspect of Disney Princess where they can attract any animal. Also, the use of emojis and informal and funny language in window panel text was awesome, love that part, helped a lot with the vibes and keeping it all flowing. Razzy really knew what he was doing and how to do it 👌👌👌👌👌.

Very cute. I love the flowers especially a certain one. I can't talk to much yet about thr plot because it'll be spoilers because each chapter is huge and can cover quite a bit per chapter. I love sassy characters like or mc and I wish the best for her even despite her current situation. She needs to be loved and cherished

Just like the title of this review says, it was a good read but I can’t say I enjoyed it as thoroughly as some of the works I find on here.
Having said that, I still would recommend this to anyone that needs some intense doses of wholesome vibes and warm fuzzies. And despite my less than 100% enjoyment of it, it did inspire me to make a thing for D&D so, to the author, I thank you for that.

This story about Cherish, the cutest tyrant the world has known, has made me literally laugh out loud (or dry cackle in the privacy of my room) multiple times in some chapters. If you're not grinning madly through most of the story, you're reading it wrong as Cherish's inner gremlin nature gives a deranged counter point to the sweet, pure magic pouring from everything she imposes upon the world,

The premise of the story if written worng could be extremely childish and boring. The author dose not do this, the main character is self aware and keeps the same thought prosses even when the thoughts are more "cute and cuddly". It's a very good read so far, I would recommend anyone who needs a good giggle and some fuffly love read this!
