After my Character Setting Collapsed, I Became an Incubus

Lucian, a quick transmigrator, cheerfully escapes to the next world after completing his mission of deceiving the protagonist (and others) in the previous world by masquerading as the Holy Son. Before dying, he reveals his incubus lineage and exposes his dark history. Overnight, he transformed from an innocent white lotus into a sinister and cunning black moonlight, completely filling everyone’s hatred meter. Running away after flirting is indeed exciting. He can’t go back anyway. ^+^ ……Until he wakes up to discover that he has not only lost contact with the system but has also returned to the previous world. He wears an anklet that seals his power, his incubus bloodline awakened halfway, with demon runes, white hair, and red eyes. Not only that, he finds himself trapped in a high tower within a castle, unable to even open the windows. And the owner of the castle is… None other than the terrifying protagonist hell-bent on revenge, destruction, and killing him. ——Somehow, after escaping through death, his body did not die with him. Instead, it was kept alive by that man in the castle, functioning but without a soul. Lucian: ……Is there any hope left for me?

## My Thoughts on After my Character Setting Collapsed, I Became an Incubus "After my Character Setting Collapsed, I Became an Incubus" is definitely a wild ride, a dark and twisted romance that grabbed my attention from the start. This novel isn't for the faint of heart, diving deep into themes of manipulation, obsession, and a rather unconventional definition of love. ### First Impressions The initial chapters definitely throw you into the deep end. The pacing is quick, and you're immediately faced with a protagonist who's not afraid to be a bit of a "little sh*t," as one reader put it. It's not your typical fluffy romance, and I appreciated the story's willingness to embrace morally grey characters and complex relationships. ### What Works Well What really shines here is the dynamic between Lucian (MC) and Wade (ML). The author masterfully portrays their love-hate relationship, where the lines between pleasure and pain become blurred. It's a slow burn, but the character development is compelling. Both Lucian and Wade are flawed, and their interactions are filled with tension and raw emotion. I found myself invested in their twisted journey, even when I questioned their choices. The writing is also a strong point, drawing you into the story and making you feel the weight of their struggles. ### Areas of Concern While I enjoyed the overall story, I can see how some readers might be put off by the dub-con themes and the darker aspects of their relationship. It's definitely not a light read and requires a certain tolerance for morally ambiguous situations. Also, the secondary characters tend to fade into the background once their roles are complete, which can leave some loose ends. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Okay, let's talk about the ending for a moment. It's a rollercoaster of emotions! Wade finding out about Lucian's past and the lengths Lucian went to manipulate him adds another layer of complexity. The final sacrifice and Wade's subsequent search for Lucian's reincarnations across different worlds is incredibly touching and ultimately delivers a satisfying happy ending. ### Final Verdict "After my Character Setting Collapsed, I Became an Incubus" is a captivating but intense read. If you're looking for a unique romance with morally grey characters, dark themes, and a compelling plot, I'd recommend giving this novel a try. Just be prepared for a wild and potentially triggering ride. I'd give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
