The Worlds Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated in Another World as an Aristocrat, Vol. 2 (light novel) By Rui Tsukiyo
A decent novel. I was curious after watching the movie how it would proceed and the novel was interesting enough to read through quickly.
The hero is a monster as expected and he has his work cut out for him.
I expected more emotional dilemmas, politics, winning trust, betrayal, etc. But the author made that too easy.
The cause of the hero being responsible for the end of the world also seems to be obvious now. They could have teased it and slowly revealed something.
The pacing is very tight and so it's nice. It doesn't drag on. But maybe it's too fast and they didn't really flesh out some of the interesting characters like that Duke's son. They didn't really show us the demon kings side, or other political intrigue happening.
The assassin already has shown some interesting methods.
Him not having a harem but also having one feels irritating. Like pick a lane. He likes kissing them but he doesn't? They like it, why is he holding back? Or just don't have such a sister, friendship relationship in the way. Don't make it all so ambiguous. I didn't like the romance in this. His love for dia seems to be a remnant of his monogamous upbringing on earth. But they could have really exploring that conflict with local cultural norms.
Overall I'd barely say a 3. It's mostly a 2. Rui Tsukiyo I do not recommend you read this second volume.
I thought that this light novel was actually pretty good on its first volume because everything the main character did, was positive, well done, logical, made sense, guided to his only goal which was to complete the objective that the goddess had made on him, to completely destroy everything the main character did in the first volume in this much shorter, nonsensical, illogical and senseless volume 2.
From a pretty well written and thought out volume 1, volume 2 throws everything out the window and is filled with contradictions and nonsensical, illogical actions by the main character.
It is illogical that a headmaster (principal) of a magic school who is not a noble and has no authority over nobles (main character is a noble) forces the main character to help and chain (by becoming his first friend) to the hero character.
The only objective of the main character in this Isekai LN is to assassinate the hero character.
In this volume 2, the main character becomes the punching bag for the hero, so that the hero can actually become stronger.
The main character saves the hero from the boss demon that attacks the magic school. Main character uses all of his trump cards and hidden attack skills accumulated through his 16+ years of reincarnated life to save the hero and some of the rest of the students.
Nothing on Volume 2 makes sense. The main character and his retinue had no real reason to go to this 2 year magic school. No real reason to be forced to help and become the punching bag and friends of the hero. No real reason to save the hero from the boss demon and yet the author throwing away all logical sense, the main plot arc of this light novel and the easiest way to complete the only objective of his new reincarnated life (assassinate the hero). Does not do what he is supposed to.
If the main character would have just not gone out of his home, then he could have completed the objective that the goddess required from him. All that would have been left was to later take care of the demon king and the story would be completed. What a way to destroy a light novel.
Rui Tsukiyo Mucho mejor que el anterior, este volumen se toma las cosa con más calma para procesar todo, me gusta el hecho de que el héroe realmente se siente como algo imposible de vencer, no es lo típico de que ya te ves venir el final sino que uno siente al héroe como este monstruo de fuerza que es y hasta da miedo imaginar que algún día dominará el mundo, dejando de lado esto el volumen es bueno, no la gran cosa pero bueno. Rui Tsukiyo The narrative style is very direct and easy to follow, as expected of a light novel, but unfortunately the first person narration style detracts from the story. It is far more detailed than the manga and anime, but this detail makes it more tedious. Even then I'm invested in the story, so I'll keep reading the next volumes. Rui Tsukiyo The first book was better and I feel more calculated in the main characters actions. This book was hard to get through and some parts did not fully make sense. But hopefully the next book clears some parts uo Rui Tsukiyo

Love it
I do enjoy a lot this type of book. Highly recommended.
Comedy, romance and murder skills. It also has some pictures Lol
Rui Tsukiyo I enjoyed the second volume. You get to know the hero of the story and why Lugh was given the mission to kill them. I say anything else or it will be spoilers.
I can't wait to read volume 3. Rui Tsukiyo
