Description
Regardless of how developed a society becomes, assassins and prostit**es will never cease to exist. There’s no need to think of the former as anything mysterious, and there’s no need to look down on the latter. They are simply doing their jobs. When Tang En crossed over planes, he was forced into this mu*derous and hopeless profession. “You have great talent for assassination.” Tang En: “Huh, I have this kind of talent?” “That’s right, your looks are exceedingly plain, this is very useful to assassins.” “……” Tang En: “But I haven’t even managed to kill a chicken.” “Irrelevant, assassins don’t need to kill chickens, only people.” “……” The story is about a plain college graduate crossing over worlds after dying in an awkward situation. Inheriting the game-like assassin system and a badass butler from the transition, he now has to adapt to survive in this dangerous, new world. Set in a western fantasy universe.

My Thoughts on Ultimate Assassin System
"Ultimate Assassin System" presents a familiar premise: a protagonist transported to another world with a game-like system. While the initial chapters might leave you a bit disoriented, there's potential for enjoyment if you're willing to stick around for a bit. I went into this novel expecting a thrilling assassin story, and while it has its moments, it's a bit of a mixed bag.
First Impressions
The beginning definitely feels a little rough around the edges. It's not the smoothest start, and it took me a few chapters to really get a feel for what the story was trying to do. The initial setup felt a little forced, as if the author had a great idea for the middle of the story but hadn't quite figured out how to get there. It lacks the immediate hook that pulls you into the world and makes you want to learn more.
What Works Well
Once the story finds its footing, the character interactions become a definite highlight. The relationships, especially those involving the law enforcement division and other shady characters, add a layer of intrigue and complexity that I found engaging. The world-building, while somewhat generic in its "Western fantasy" setting (as some might say), does provide a solid backdrop for the unfolding events.
Areas of Concern
My biggest issue lies with the main character himself. He comes across as a bit bland and indecisive. He lacks a certain spark that makes you root for him. A lot of the other characters in the story have more defined personalities and motivations, making the MC feel somewhat like a blank slate in comparison. The pacing can also be a problem, with the story sometimes dragging its feet in building tension.
Final Verdict
"Ultimate Assassin System" isn't a masterpiece, but it has its moments. If you're a fan of system novels and can overlook a somewhat shaky start and a less-than-stellar protagonist, you might find something to enjoy here. The character interactions and world-building offer some redeeming qualities. However, be prepared for a potentially slow burn and a main character who might not immediately grab your attention. I'd give it a cautious recommendation, but with the caveat that your mileage may vary.
