The God of Evil and Destruction, Dommon has summoned a hundred Demon Lords across a hundred worlds... The gods of light and order banded together, hoping to find a hundred heroes to face this threat.
They only found one. And he's had to reincarnate each and every new time he's faced a Demon Lord. Then there's the fact that Galatea, the goddess of reincarnation kept giving him the 'default' settings in character generation for each world!
Finally given a choice to be whatever he wants when he faces the last obstacle in his path to freedom from this destiny... He chooses to be...
(This is my first attempt at writing something serious in a long, long, time. Comments and critiques are highly welcomed and encouraged!)

- MiakitsRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5As a fan of catgirls, i was drawn by the title, intrigued by the description, and fascinated by the story. Is it perfect? Hardly, but if nothing else, you have a concrete outline for a rewrite when you get the drive to revisit.
There were a couple things in the beginning that threw me, and if the story had more meat on it and the narrative between time skips were more, my confusion would likely have been less. That’s kind of my only big critique. Just this…but more. I feel like more would resolve some of the pacing and perceived plot holes i encountered at the beginning.
For example:
Mau not admitting she was faking her weakness to Suvdaa until way later, without at least giving subtle hints of her holding back felt like a huge plot issue that could have been avoided, or explained better. Like, her body wasn’t fit enough, something else to hint at her goal. If the objective was to conceal her intentions from both the reader and characters, at least drop subtle hints so the observant can realize and theorize that she may be holding back then give the bone when you’re ready.
The rapid fire references were entertaining if not a little weird at times. You personally hit me with a few niche references that i enjoyed.
i look forward to one day seeing version 2 of this story. - Will It WorkRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5I had a huge amount of fun reading this, because it's smart, clever, and knows its material.
The ‘adventurer insertion’ plot has been done so many ways. The tired immortal warrior has been done so many ways. The respect shown is that here is someone who knows all that — lived all that — and finds a fairly unique answer. With a surprisingly happy ending.
Themes of destiny, gender, and societal roles are questioned, but again, given the importance they should have in an epic, fantastic story. The author had a plot, a goal, and drove to it. Half a star taken off for the giant time skip though!
Recommended for people who like taking the third option, or appreciate queer+ characters. Not recommended for numbers go up, thud and blunder power fantasy lovers. - CodewrdsRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0Did the title make any sense? Basically I need more empty time around the events to get to know the characters.
I think this is a good premise, and author shows promise. The cat girl parts especially deliver on the cuteness they deserve.
I think the biggest issue of this novel is the feeling of needing to get to the stuff. It full of time skips and I don't think author spends enough time stewing in a scene.
The biggest thing I think that sets the style of authors like Brandon Sanderson apart from RR authors is this ability to stew in a setting. Taking time to not just say that the grass "waved in the wind", but that it "waved merrily in the wind, almost seeming to greet the sun as it rose over the verdant hills." - toffucaRoyal Road★★★★ 3.5My review is based on the fact that the main character is wonderful, very well constructed, and feels real. The cast, although a bit strange and somewhat forced (the gratuitous hatred is funny but I don’t know), also feels alive.
With respect to the world, it’s in the middle, generic places, little description, but well achieved.
What shines in the story are the monsters, the plans to defeat them, and the fights. It’s not an action story, it’s more about intelligent fighting.
Now I’m going to mention some points where it falters, it feels like to direct the story the author takes certain licenses that creak and rub with the characters and their world.
As I say, they are details. But little by little they take you out of the immersion of the story. - vladeragRoyal Road★★★★ 3.5This isn't a bad story, but I have to confess I lost interest when the protagonist lost a fight that she could not possibly lose. How does a ten thousand year old hero who has killed ninety-nine demon kings lose to some kid? This is a person who has spent more time holding a sword than the readers of the story have spent alive.
I almost think this story might be better as a LitRPG, because then you could possibly excuse this kind of thing by appealing to stats...
Edit: I have to confess that the catgirl moments are quite adorable though. I have also looked at a cat and told them not to push something off of a table, only to watch them do it. - TotallyNotT3mmieRoyal Road★★★ 3.0The story started off well. The experiance beyond the main characters years showed, and people reqcted appropriately. We got to see how the main character stuggled against her body and prevailed via her wisdom which she earned beating 99 demon lords and living 99 lives. Then we get to the snowey plains.
Now, that 99 years, they don't mean anything anymore. She immediatly loses in combat to someone her own current age (someone who hasn't lived 99 lives), and then we are constantly told how she is weaker than this other girl. Then we have a 2 year time skip where she is taught how to fight and live like the nomad raiders she joined. Why does she need to do this? What happened to all those countless years on the battle feild and learning how to fight?! Where are her past techniques that might not even exist in this world?! Where are the spells she used and learned before she got to this world? Why does she have to learn the ways of these nomads when by all means she should know what already?! Why is she weaker than someone her own age?! This isn't the same story it started off as, and that's really disappointing for me. She's just a prodigy fighting for her life at this point instead of a seasoned warrior who has killed 99 demon lords.
Earlier on, the character describes their childhoods in past lives being mostly training before they take off to adventure. I don't know why that didn't happen here, we weren't given a good reason.
Maybe this story changes later on to be more accurate to it's initial premise as the author gains experiance writing, but she having someone her age which she is unable to beat in combat as a traveling companion is already off the mark for me. She's trained since she was able to. Being that weak is nonsense.
