He was an addict, a loser, a despicable human being. But, one fleeting dream that may not have been a dream at all reawakens his once-lost senses. Possessing a very unique ability, he would use that, and the dream, to forge his path in the world now known as the Lost Paradise.

….

«The son of god Gula has returned.»

I was lost in the world of gambling. I turned my back on my family and even betrayed my lover. I wasted every day of my life. It was a life of trash.

The reality told me thus: That I would amount to nothing no matter what I did. In order to change my pathetic life, I chose fantasy, instead. Even then, it was the same story. I wondered if salvation would come at the end of the long road. But, I was forced to kneel down in defeat in front of a powerful entity. The tower I built up with my own hands crumbled into nothingness. Just for once, I dearly wished to know the truth about myself.

— Come closer, my child…

I will not hold back this time. Collapse

    i really enjoyed this novel. The only irksome thing is when charachters are talking a lot of uh, ah, oh etc words are used. It is soooo annoying and for some reason every korean novel has them in almost every dialogue.

    The MC has memories, but not the experience of the future. He has the information advantage at the early parts of the story. It gets better in the later parts as he has become somewhat experienced and relies on his allies more.

    The Second Coming of Gluttony is the most reviewed novel at https://www.wuxiaworld.com/. 592 reviews with 90% positive ratings. There's a high chance you will enjoy it. but if you hate it usually you will really hate it. However, I think it's good to take your chances.

    Long review short, if you chance upon this novel in hopes that the MC is smart, decisive, serious, and calculative, then I suggest you don't waste your time. He shows promise at the beginning up until the trial/neutral zone arc ends. After that arc, his personality somehow switches to a seemingly goofy, dense, childish individual that'll have you (or at least it had me) very frustrated.

    A few other complaints include: MC never really seeming to learn from past experiences, turns into a complete idiot around women, and everyone, including the author, treats him like a 12 year old (he sometimes acts like it too) even though he is supposedly 26.

    An honorable mention is the author and every other character repeatedly, and I mean REPEATEDLY, referring to the MC as "the youth". It really encapsulates almost all that is wrong with this MC, because his maturity was a big thing I questioned while reading.

    (for people planning to read the novel)
    If you've seen the tags, then just ignore the "Reverse R*pe". Its not related in anyway to the story (its one of the side chapters)

      Also the "Harem" genre, I'm not really sure since it's been almost a year since I last read the novel, but I think the Main Story was more like a polygamy and it only truly became a harem in the Side Story

        Yeah, it turns out I don't really know what Polygamy means, what I meant here is that he has a close relationship with several women but except for Female Lead, he doesn't like any of them nor does he have any thoughts of deepening their relationship

    Jesus 1 chapter of this is super freaking long. Like literally. U can see the difference so obvious.

    It's 11 pages long.

    I'm at chapter 100 and it feels like reading a drama. I'm confuse why it's rated so high on novelupdate. Returnee is more bearable than this.

      idk if u finished it yet, if u did write the 2nd part to your review... The reason why its a really good novel to me is basically the character development tbh, the way mc changes from a lazy bum to developing into a badass can visibly be seen in one of the best fights that I have ever read which happen in the very late chapters

        I wanted to thank you for your comment, because I was on the verge of taking a break from this novel; the MC seemed to be lacking in the “badass” department. I am on chp 70 as I write this, but your comment has renewed my faith that he’ll develop into a dope MC.

    OWWW I've never actually read this novel before. I was confused with the manhwa. I read it before a couple chapters and stop before the fun even begin. cause I thought it totally made zero freaking sense. but I think they left a lot of parts out in the manhwa.

    Let's gooo now I have a novel to finish. This will be my last one. Based on reviews and recommendations it's really good.

    Let this be the final joy ride. Then I'll gladly die.
