Recommendations MC that turns from being emotionless to emotional

Michael Moorcock's Eternal Champion books (Elric, Corum, van Bek).
... maybe ...

 

How long is an arc though usually?

 

It's a series
Which one should I look up first?

 

I would average it to 8 chapters, though an arc would probably take an average reader 4-5 hours.

 

Ok thanks for taking your time
Don't want to keep you waiting
Goodbye

 

I would start with Elric or Corum ... and no matter which one you choose you'll have enough to read for some time.

 

Thanks
Remember to hide the spoilers in the future

 

<<feeling ashamed ... and edited the earlier post already
However, I hope you will find something to read.

 

Thanks

 

My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending is definitely what you're looking for.

 

Otherworldly Evil Monarch - though it's not exactly a dark tone or any such specific thing...

 

Sadly I already read it

 

Just to say, i read it for the story because the story is one of the best. Don't be put out because of the title.

I post the prologue, it is not a hentai chose to continue after you read:
A young man, closer to a boy than an adult, wandered down the dark tunnel. His boots scraped against the damp stone floor, echoing slightly throughout the passage. The lantern he was holding did its best to illuminate the cave-like walls, his shadow dancing ominously behind him. He had spent the better part of two hours in these tunnels, the so called Green Zone of the Litigar Dungeon Complex. So far he’d been lucky. With only a few bats and giant rats as his opponents, he was steadily on his way to Level 5!

Just a little more and I can graduate from this ‘newbie area’ and move onto bigger and better things!

He picked up the pace after psyching himself up. The mere thought of leaving this gloomy place and finishing his dull quest was all the motivation he needed right now. Breaking into a light jog, he went deeper and deeper into the winding maze-like cave system.

Left, then right, then right, then left again - wait, or was that a triple right?

The young man named Himmel stopped at a three-way intersection and looked around. It didn’t take him long to realize he had gotten completely lost. He shone his lantern’s light down the left tunnel, then the right one.

Yep. No idea. Oh well, this is why they tell us to carry Portal Keys! I’m sure it will work out!

The small rune-inscribed stone would whisk him away to safety in an instant should the need arise. Although the usefulness of such a thing could not be understated, the complacency and carelessness it taught young adventurers was less than useful.

Continuing down the right-hand path, the young boy noticed a change in his surroundings. The uneven floor suddenly became flat. Although it was still bare rock, it felt like walking on polished marble rather than inside a cave. Peering into the darkness, he noticed something clearly out of place. Something brown and strangely rectangular.

A chest! Lucky!

A simple wooden box with no lock. The dungeon randomly spewed these out, sometimes containing useful items and gear that could be a veritable jackpot for an enterprising young adventurer. Not this one though - the wooden chests in this dungeon offered the lowest grade of loot. Most of them contained bottom-tier potions or maybe moldy bread. The best he could hope to get out of this would be an Iron Ring that provided a negligible bonus to a random stat.

Still, a newbie could not afford to pass up pennies on the ground. The adventurer approached the chest with a small spring in his step. He opened it with both arms and peered at it expectantly. However, what awaited him inside was neither a potion nor a piece of inedible bread. It was something much more impressive than that!

Several sets of dagger-like teeth and a giant red tongue became visible as the monster pretending to be a chest revealed its true nature. The fleshy tongue coiled around the young adventurer’s waist and dragged him into the gaping maw before he could react. He was then unceremoniously eaten in three big bites.



Level up!
Congratulations, you are now a level 2 Mimic! All attributes +2.

 

It seems original and interesting but the hentai kills it for me
I mean in later chapters
From what I understood it seems to be some bizarre porn for the male audience

 

The Charm of Soul Pets
The MC is extremely cold, calculating, and mature but cares about his soul pets and family. Slowly showing more emotion than at first.

Spoiler: Summary

Many islands dotted the vast oceans of this world. However, some of the islands were a lot more sinister than the rest. Those islands, known as Nightmare Islands, were true nightmares to all but the strongest and most fortunate. Children were kidnapped and thrown on these isolated islands by the Nightmare Palace, forced to sign soul pacts with evil soul pets: Nightmares. These devils slowly devoured the souls of their trainers to grow stronger. If the children did not cultivate fast enough, their souls will be devoured whole, leaving only an empty husk behind.

Chu Mu, the protagonist, was an heir to the Chu Clan, but due to a plotted murder, he was thrown on the island, sentencing him to almost certain death. Dancing on the edge of life and death, he struggled to survive with a small Moonlight Fox he captured. When he finally escaped the devilish foremen on his island, he couldn’t help but let a breath out. But little does he know, the experience was only a beginning to a fated journey with his little Moonlight Fox…

 

It is not hentai, no porn. I realy don't want to spoil you.

It is a litrpg, there is sexual content but it don't affect the story. Read for more but it is not what you think it is.

Spoiler

The title mean chests as box so like adventurer like big box in dungeon that have treasure. The sex is more of a side character that fuck another side character for 4 line of text on 12 chapters. The mc didn't have real sex so far.

In the later chapter there is actualy less sexual content. It is actualy rare and no major part of the story.

And i will not say anymore, the choice is your, but you just risk to pass one of the best litrpg with a realy well made system.

 

Thanks i might give it a shot

 

Tried but reminded of pokemon but more brutal( thanks anyways)

 

So? Did i win in corrupting you?
