Determined to get his hands on the powerful Relic within, Jooheon ventures into the first of the Seven Great Tombs. However, even this seasoned raider is helpless before the Relic of Sloth’s scorching flames! Just as he prepares for the worst, the fires suddenly go out, and he is…cordially greeted by Emperor Nero…?! As it turns out, Jooheon’s “failed” attempt at writing a novel has garnered him some very unusual fans. Now a rising star in the Relic literature scene, he is challenged by the infamous Roman tyrant to a duel…of penmanship!
This manhua makes me cackle so much. I love Jooheon so much. He’s so egotistical and power hungry, but he still cares for those around him in his own unique way. I can’t wait to see where this goes.
The villainy continues. Sarcasm, terrible fan fiction, and fake dramatic reveals provide humor among the shoot outs, magical battles, and coming apocalypse. It doesn’t get bogged down in the details or apologize for the egotistical lead. I think I could roll with the randomness a bit more if Jooheon’s plans felt smarter—but his schemes have no reason to work other than he’s the protagonist of the comic. If you’re still reading you are probably laughing along. See earlier reviews as it is mostly the same. >>>>>^^^^^<<<<< >>>>>^^^^^<<<<< >>>>>^^^^^<<<<< Pilfering the harem relic in Kyoto put Jooheon in contact with some former acquaintances before he ventures inside the first of the Seven Great Tombs.
