Description
“Master! Master! This time our target is a beggar!” Zhang San responded very coldly: “So what?” “Since he’s a beggar, let’s get it over with quickly.” Zhang San calmly glanced at the beggar on the street, then turned and walked away. “Master, what’s wrong?!” Zhang San spoke weightily: “Little Two, don’t you think it’s very abnormal for someone to pay to have a beggar killed?” The disciple asked in shock: “Master, could it be that we have to…again?” Zhang San nodded plainly. The next moment, the disciple tightly hugged Zhang San’s legs and cried: “It’s been a year since we last opened for business, Master! Take this job, or we’ll starve to death!” Zhang San’s heart softened, perhaps also under realistic pressures. He heaved a long sigh, and said: “Fine, let’s observe that beggar for two months first before deciding whether to take action.” This assassin is too steady!

My Thoughts on This Assassin is Too Steady
This novel, "This Assassin is Too Steady," definitely piqued my interest with its intriguing title and premise. After diving in, I found myself with mixed feelings, though ultimately leaning towards a recommendation with some reservations.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the comedic elements and the seemingly cautious protagonist. The idea of a steady, meticulous assassin in a martial arts world felt like a fresh take on the genre. The early chapters promised a blend of action, humor, and a protagonist who was always ten steps ahead.
What Works Well
What I appreciated most was the humor woven throughout the story. The protagonist's internal monologues and interactions often had me chuckling. The world-building is also a strong point, presenting a believable and somewhat grim picture of a world where traditional sects have declined and the "bad guys" have taken over. I found the protagonist's backstory, shaped by witnessing an immortal at a young age, to be a compelling motivation for his cautious nature. Also, the author's ability to create realistic character interactions and plot developments made the world feel immersive.
Areas of Concern
However, as I progressed, I noticed some inconsistencies that detracted from my enjoyment. The translation quality, while generally acceptable, seemed to fluctuate, with occasional errors and strange name changes that could be distracting. More significantly, the protagonist's "steadiness" felt increasingly questionable. While he's presented as hyper-cautious, his actions sometimes contradicted this, leading to situations where he seemed surprisingly reckless. I also found the protagonist's moral compass a bit inconsistent. While some readers might appreciate his flaws and emotional moments, I found his shifting moral ground made it hard to connect with him.
Final Verdict
Despite these concerns, "This Assassin is Too Steady" has enough charm and intrigue to warrant a read, especially if you're looking for a martial arts story with a comedic twist. Just be prepared for some inconsistencies in the protagonist's behavior and occasional translation hiccups. Overall, I'd say it's a solid 3.5/5 stars – a fun, albeit flawed, read.
