As a newly hired employee at a famous conglomerate, no less! Good benefits, good salary, and even my direct superiors are kind and competent—it's a dream job. Using the knowledge of the world that only I possess, I'm rapidly climbing the corporate ladder! Am I happy? Please, just send me home. ※Special Note: The genre is horror.

    Love this. The MC isn’t dumb and uses what he knows to his advantage mostly because he’s a coward. Character interactions are amazing and everything is very creative. I really liked the Abyss/Braun arc and how it ended

    ♾️/10 I’m literally gonna cry when it ends

    absolutely incredible. i love all characters especially the MC, he's actually so relatable and funny! the plot is also interesting (the horror is sooo detailed! my type fr) and i recommend that everyone should read it, one of my most recent hyperfixations lmaooo >_< i'm such a sucker for creepypasta stories

    Where do i click to read this?

    From the same author of Debut or Die, I swear they come up with some of the most creative ideas I've seen.

    Scared MC but peak actor. You would hate to be his roommate lol. Anyway the plot is leaves u wanting for more and guessing what other stunt he is gonna pull. His relationship with Braun hehe. Ps Braun is my favorite character every time he comes up it got he screaming I LOVE BRAUN!!!!

    Same author as Debut or die. MC is a coward so he tries to speedrun every situation so he could escape the situation faster but comes off as a genius. because of this they give him increasingly more difficult work. Its genuinely funny how main character interacts with other people. The main story is also really good with intriguing mysteries and clever solutions.

    I personally LOVE this novel, probably the best one ive read so far and im so happy i picked this up. i love all the hidden details and the stuff they foreshadow, it makes the story plot so interesting, also the mc is scared of ghost story's, but is not scared of chopping off their limbs or getting contaminated (infected by the ghost story), so he will do some of the craziest stuff. and bro cannot escape employment TT #mostemployedmanever

    soleum is a good person. he may thinks he’s a coward but does his best to make sure everyone survives every time. each arc is filled with tension, and the writing makes it all the more engaging. there are hidden details that shows the depth of characters, by that i mean it isn’t directly conveyed to the reader. the horror aspect isn’t too intense, if you’re afraid of that. give it a try if you’re looking for a gripping experience!

    I really love this, I love how the MC reacts in whatever situation he’s put in, as well as his character. He does his best to save everyone despite his cowardice, no matter what. I also really like how the MC's cheat sheet isn't overly used. The author creates situations where he can't rely on it as much as he likes while keeping things fresh. I also love how we get to revisit old characters. It's always nice to see them. Lastly, I sincerely love this SCP wiki-esque setting.

    I love this novel, the mc is fun, a walking contradiction; I love how they set up things and the emotional rollercoaster. It's comedy and it also has some sad parts which makes it all interesting too. You should really read it!

    A lowkey unhinged MC despite self proclaiming himself as a 'coward' KSE is just built like a pack of sardines, all his fear and cowardice packed tightly inside that he just ends up looking like a dead fish to the outside pov. He's the epitome of 'Don't let them know your next move', with all the crazy stunts he pulls just so he can quickly get through the horror and go back to the safety of reality. Yet despite all the atrocities and immorallness around him, he still manages to get through the chaos without sacrificing his humanity for it, even when it would be an easier choice. Braun is a dependable 'good friend', you can trust in him! 🐰

    absolutely life changing!! i love the plot and how the mc adapts to every situation they are placed in. same author as debut or die so i definitely recommend many to read it! the plot is always stays refreshing and is very original. its an absolute masterpiece and the writing is just perfect and i love it so much

    you know how you feel when you know something was put on this earth just for you? gsgw is a horror transmigration story with one of my favorite protagonists ever, a great cast of characters and tons and tons of bromance. you could not factory make something so fit to my tastes as this. It's good but prepare for a lot of suffering and missing the earlier parts of this novel like it's a dead relative

    my favorite webnovel!! intriguing & original plot, well developed characters, + unreliable narrator. i really love all the side characters and their interactions w/ mc. ofc my favorite is the mc kim soleum ily if you rly need a home my doors are wide open^^
