Description

"What's that you say? I can never leave this reality ever? Good!"

Ed, was a normal man in a world full of superheroes, so he didn't really have too many complaints when that first truck fell on him. After all he'd read enough comics to know that sometimes things just happen. Besides he'd been getting on in years when it happened, and his life till then, though lonely, had more or less been fully lived.

The second time around when that one guy pushed him off a cliff for a chalice of immortal ambrosia, wasn't so cool though, and then there was that third time when he was just getting used to life as a lady, and that crazy goddess showed up out of nowhere and started ranting about purging the demon menace....then some other stuff happened and he briefly got to go back to earth before falling into a coma where he adventured in the world of dreams.

Then the aliens came, and the dream ended and he was suddenly stuck being the AI Overmind for the whole damn star systm. The aliens died, and because he was all mechanical and what-not he just kind of had to keep on going.

Forced to continue collecting the materials and data from countless worlds that were destoryed in the process.

Then there was that whole war with the gods business that followed...mostly because of all that world destroying he did because of some fairly faulty programming.

Anyway, thankfully someone pulled a "rocks fall" on that whole curfuffle, because by the time he was in control of himself again, things had long gotten out of hand.

Now the powers-that-be tell him that he must spend the rest of his existence in single lonely section of the cosmos. Trapped in a single portion of a single universe. And now he weeps...No worries though, these are tears of joy.

Hopefully this final unending existence he's been given will be the quiet life he's been looking for.

A Man who's seen everything gets abducted by aliens and is converted into an AI that sits at the helm of a fleet of alien ships and behind the computer systems for most their planets. This Alien AI goes to war with the gods and ends up nearly destroying an entire reality. The Angels condemn the troublemaking AI to life as normal child on a far off world....All truth said, the "AI" couldn't be happier. His life's been far too interesting(read: Scary, Inconvenient and Painful) in his opinion and he could do with a bit of normalcy.

    i liked the casualness of the story. Yet still able to provoke the eagerness for me to read more. The concept also helps. I always love the concept of sci-fi overwriting fantasy,
    (because if you think about it. Since when does it matter it a concept seems to fantastical or magical? Science doesnt care on what form does a concept take. If it exist in any shape or form. Than its part of reality therefore is a part of science and logic. things that seems magical and fantastical is only an another realm of logic and science that one hasnt grasped yet)
    A harem with the females and the male having a balanced trait of maturity and sexuality,
    (by that i mean able to get extremely wild like in hentais, but still has semblance of great characterisms outside of sex)
    Being mixed together. i'm a man that is both a rational and logical person and an extreme pervert. A combination you dont see often eh?
    You are on the track on providing me with all the qualities i so longed for in stories. Its just such a rare thing because these two concepts has an opposite nature towards eachother.
    See you soon author. I eagerly await for your contnued endaevors of this story.

    The grammar is great except for the inevitable occational hiccups (missing words or stuff) which can be easily replaced by any reader. Nobody would disagree.
    Words that are different AND better than the random novels that are laid out there that makes my english grow and make me fall in love with the story even more!
    The words that i mentioned beforehand also compliment the style of the novel which makes the style, that is making me feel like im spectating the world in person, even more awesome. The style also resemble some of my favorite officially published novels like 'Now or Never -elizabeth adler'. That in itself makes it unique to me in this site.
    The story is a one in a billion; original, intriguing, exciting, interesting, educational, and hilarious. All the characters are Alive and Breathing which i absolutely love in this novel. The main character is absolutely awesome. The sub-characters are each unique in their own way. Both of the mains and subs compliment the story to make a whole world. I can't manage to stop anticipitating the next couple of chapters.
    The characters personalities are portrayed in both actions and thoughts in a realistic way. The characters have emotions and they are not forced by some kind of psycho author! Awesome! The character development is done step-by-step way that normal people would have to go through in real life but in a fantasy world settings. Double Awesome! There is the right amount of POV changes in the right times too. I can read the thoughts of people in key conversations which makes me even more entertained. Triple awesome!
    Like i said, i can't quite have enough of this novel and am continuously reading and rereading the chapters.
    Progress is 28 chapters and i started reading in like chapter 12 or so. Im telling you, if you guys are still sitting on top of a frozen bottle then u guys have hope! Read this novel right now! If you guys arent on top of em, if you miss out on this, then things are gonna get bloody down the

    I like the writing style, pity about short chapters though.
    MC is likeable enough, except the fact that a lot of focus is on him being an AI (which he could not be, since his intelligence is not Artifical) or rather Overmind.

    5/5 stars. Want more like this.
    ... but srsly, is there a function on rrl that fulfills this that U'm just missing or does something need to change because "more like this" is hyugely necessary.

    Think reincarnation shines when done with a old person, the whole teenager dies and restarts always felt like a bad match to me.
    The basic idea seems intristically to favor the richer backstory the maincharacter had before dying. AND OHBOY does this main character have the BEST backstory in the whole RR library

    Review of the first 14 chapters.
    This story troubles me. The author has put some efforts. I have no doubt some people will LOVE this story. He created many good elements, but somehow, manages to waste their potential.
    You have a high IQ low EQ main character. In contrast to many attempts from other authors, he seems real. His actions reflect his given personality. But he should have been put in a happy comedy setting or a downright bloody tragedy. The reader just feel inferior to him, and that's all. I mean... displaying a tiny flaw for empathy is fine too.
    You have a huge original backstory, a litteral goldmine that you have the joy to discover... in the first chapter. But there's more, there are details everywhere. The world is also original. For example you get horses BUT with six legs. Whenever the author can, he'll throw something labeled 'This is not Earth, Stupid' at you. Personnaly, I need some pauses to breath, some time to accept a new element before it is used to advance the story. Then I can build the world in my mind and let the story flow. But it keeps flooding. Worse, it never comes in the form of info-dumps, but is linked to the story development. Again, I'm just feeling bad, for not picturing a hard thought world. Say... 'four legged horses', or just 'horses' are fine too.
    Then, there are timeskips and POV changes. They are also 'good' points because of, respectively: the story that begins before birth, the OP protagonist. They are needed, but I won't encourage the author to bring them in a 'better way'. They should not be there in the first place. They are last resort tools used between chapters after a major event. The story could have begun way later. I heard of several of MC multiple lifetimes, I could also have heard of/guessed his new life childhood at some point.
    TL;DR: You may love it. Read if you have a wide imagination, or the references that I missed. If you don't mind to be thrown naked in a rocket headed towards another planet, that's a

    The story is not really bad, but it's also far from good. Overall I feel like the author has a big giant confusion in his head and doesn't know what to write. There are many changes of POV. In fact, there is a much bigger part of the story that has nothing to do with the mc, than the little part that has his POV.
    The author should stop for a moment to organice his ideas and focus himself. Right now, if I had to choose, I would say that the mc of the story is Van by a long shot. She gets much more screen time in the story than the mc, and this should have never happened. I would even say that the author avoids as much as possible to write about the mc, his actions, his thoughts, etc. Man, if that is not a giant problem I don't know what is.
    EDIT: (very little spoilers ahead. Nothing important) it seems that, in the later half of the story, the author did improve a little the story (at least now the mc appears a little more).
    Unfortunately, even though the mc has so many abilities and knowledge that puts him above pretty much anyone in the whole planet (cultivators or not), the author decided to turn him and his wive into nothing more than ridiculously dumb characters and incompetent pawns. People far weaker than them forces them to do things they don't want to do, and the mc and Van do nothing to solve this. People continually try to kill them, and they do nothing at all, not even look for the culprit. Van's manipulative family decides to use them for their own selfish interests putting them at risk, and they go along with it for no reason at all. And so on, and on, and on...
    Honestly, I feel like the author has completely destroyed the story for me. The level of incompetence is so high, that reading the story only serves to annoy me. As such, as of chapter 34 I have decided to stop reading this farce. Goodbye.

    (As of Chapter 8) I'll start off by saying I love the premise. You have a main character that has had to deal with the reincarnation schtick again and again, and when the story starts, he's already just done. The setting he pops into for his final run also gets props for not being standard Japanese High Fantasy schlock. The execution however needs some work.
    Issue number one: grammar. The chapters are littered with sentence fragments. Lots of instances of sentences like "while he doesn't XYZ, being neurologically ABC." Where *nothing is actually happening*. There's a noun phrase out front, a comma, and an unrelated verb phrase behind. I personally have to bend my brain into a pretzel to put proper motion to the vast majority of sentences. Besides the sentence fragments, there are also smaller issues that are easier to edit, such as missed negation (i.e. should use wasn't instead of was) and dropped nouns after a string of adjectives.
    Issue Number Two: the main character. His personality isn't endearing at all. You've portrayed the dry A.I. perhaps too well, especially by presenting him so heavily through outside observers. We barely get to know anything about him before we're seeing him as silent and creepy through those around him. Does he have goals for his last life? Thoughts about his new family? Or really, thoughts about anything besides "getting acclimated"? We sort of see that he protects his sister, so there are probably feelings moving about in there, but rather than juicy details or hints, we get *another* time skip and Edwin not telling us anything about what he wants. Maybe he develops later, or he finds his drive after a tragedy that's waiting just in the next chapter, but we need a reason to like him enough to want to wait for that development now, or else we're just going to put the story down and walk away. Sure, the story isn't just about him, and there's nothing preventing you from fleshing out a good portion of the cast before him. That said, Edwi

    Everthing is ok, but you ruined it with your Vanessa arc which didnt make any sense even with your bad explanation of it.
