Description
In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos. When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise. The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel. From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character. *** Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai. After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a mu*derous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, “Scared?” Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!” Jiang Baiyan: …? — After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, “The mansion in the western suburbs…if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?” Shi Dai replied, “Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!” Jiang Baiyan: …? — Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, “Don’t abandon me, alri—” Shi Dai responded, “Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah.” Jiang Baiyan: …? He hasn’t finished his lines yet though…

Chronicles of the Eccentric Antagonist Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on Chronicles of the Eccentric Antagonist
"Chronicles of the Eccentric Antagonist" promised a blend of action, comedy, and romance set against a backdrop of martial arts and supernatural elements – a combination that immediately piqued my interest. After diving in, I can see why it's garnered a dedicated following, even if the translation is still in progress.
First Impressions
The premise is intriguing: a female lead (FL) transmigrates into a wuxia world brimming with demons and an Exorcism Bureau. Tasked with protecting her family and preventing world chaos, she embarks on a series of mystery-solving adventures with her team, including the male lead (ML). It’s a classic setup with a twist, and I was eager to see how it played out.
What Works Well
The strength of this novel lies heavily in its characters, particularly the FL and ML. The FL is an upright and somewhat naive character who brings light to the darker aspects of the world. This is wonderfully contrasted by the ML, who has yandere tendencies but manages to keep them in check due to the FL's influence. Their romance progresses at a satisfying pace, filled with tension and genuine connection. I particularly appreciated the FL's straightforwardness and ability to communicate, which prevents unnecessary misunderstandings.
The mystery cases themselves are well-crafted and engaging, adding another layer of depth to the story. The cases are like police procedurals with a supernatural twist set in historical China. The world-building, while not always the primary focus, feels thoughtfully constructed.

Final Verdict
Overall, "Chronicles of the Eccentric Antagonist" is a well-executed novel that blends mystery, romance, and supernatural elements into a compelling narrative. The characters are well-developed, the romance is engaging, and the mysteries are intriguing. While the translation being split into multiple parts can make the story seem longer than it is, the quality of the translation itself is commendable. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a fun, character-driven read with a dash of the supernatural. I'm giving this a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
