## My Thoughts on God-level Bodyguard in The City "God-level Bodyguard in The City" promised a modern action story with a confident, capable protagonist, and for the most part, it delivered. I went in expecting a fun, fast-paced read, and that's pretty much what I got. ### First Impressions The initial chapters hooked me with their quick pace and introduction to the MC, a special forces veteran turned bodyguard. The premise is simple: a guy with a tragic past uses his skills to protect the wealthy and powerful. It's a familiar trope, but the execution felt fresh enough to keep me interested. There's an early focus on romance, and the female characters are, shall we say, "deliciously proportioned," which sets the tone for what's to come. The initial arcs were strong, establishing the MC's intelligence and his ability to handle situations with a mix of arrogance and cunning. ### What Works Well The action is definitely a highlight. The MC is OP, a natural-born killer, and the fight scenes are brutal and satisfying. I appreciated that the MC isn't just a mindless brute; he's observant and intelligent, able to deduce things like Sherlock Holmes. His ability to assess and solve the problems of those he protects is a definite plus. The early arcs, especially the first few dozen chapters, are engaging and well-written. The MC's confidence and competence are refreshing, and the story moves at a good clip. ### Areas of Concern The biggest issue I saw cropping up was redundancy. As the story progresses, some felt that the arcs become repetitive, leading to a dip in interest. Some of the female characters have also been criticised for being naive or poorly written. This is a shame, because the initial promise of the novel is quite high. The romance, while initially appealing, can also feel a bit shallow, with heroines sometimes feeling underdeveloped or forgotten after their initial arc. ### Final Verdict "God-level Bodyguard in The City" is a decent read, especially if you're looking for some action and a confident, intelligent protagonist. While it might not break any new ground, it provides a solid dose of entertainment, especially in its early chapters. Just be aware that the story might become repetitive as it goes on, and the romance might not be the most compelling aspect. Approach with tempered expectations, and you might find yourself enjoying this one.
