    I'm bored so I'm just looking for web novel junk food to sobI can just turn off my brain while reading. Anything goes as long as:
    • Male protagonist
    • NOT that brain dead MC, characters, and plot
    • NO yaoi/BL
    • Fanfics are fine
    • Smut are welcomed as long as it used metaphors during sex scenes as little as possible. Seriously, Dragon Blood Warrior felt like it was written by a kid because of this.
    • NO EDGY MCs. Or better yet, make those "cool" and "edgy" MCs go to a therapist.
    • Evil MCs are fine within reason. Evil for the sake of evil is stupid.
    • The story is neither too fast or too slow.
    • As little word padding/uneccessary info dump as possible
    • If it's JP, please none of those cardboard cutout MCs. They're boring as fuck. Seriously, it's just the same characters with different names and settings.
    Also, please give the basic plot thanks.​

    The Daily Life of the Immortal King
    —Super OP protagonist who has to deal with issues like not destroying the block when he sneezes. His goal is to go to school without standing out. It is basically an impossible goal. ;-)

    Star Rank Hunter
    —Smart MC who is quietly (not in your face about it) overpowered. Except for that time he wiped out every single human on a planet after they pissed him off...

    Summoning the Holy Sword
    Reborn in a game world (that turned out to be a real fantasy world) type story. Eventually he becomes something similar to a god of that world with a huge harem, but it takes a thousand chapters getting there. Way better pacing than most wish fulfillment. He starts out fairly strong, but hardly a powerhouse, and has to work up from there. Though the harem gets overlarge at the end, they were all introduced one by one with time to actually get to know them as characters.

    Webtoon: Mercenary Enrollment
    Kid in plane crash with his parents is the only one to live, becomes mercenary to survive.
    Gets back home ~19 years old, has inexhaustible stamina and unmatched fighting skill; solves problems himself without relying on old connections.
    Ex: His sister is being bullied in school, he fixes it within a few days.
    His old mercenary group isn't even really a factor in the story, they're more backstory. I think he contacted his old leader once so far just to give him the number to his new phone.
    I wouldn't say he's brain dead or super dense, just stoic deadpan 99% of the time.

    On second thought, this probably doesn't fall under "blatant wish fulfillment" as MC just wants to be a normal person but doesn't understand what "normal" is. Doesn't run around collecting waifus or lording his power over everyone.

    This probably fits better: (scribblehub link) Reborn as Batman’s Little Brother
    I only read 20 chapters and MC is basically god and so far has 3 or 4 big name DC girls as harem members.

    Maybe try the Library of Heaven's Path.

    It's pure face-slapping but I like it.

    Eh, I stopped around c1000. It's basically just MC creates problem, MC fixes the problem, MC looks awesome because of it. He doesn't even teach his students properly. Best teacher my ass

    The entire story is just a device to show how awesome the MC is.

    But yeah it surely fits my request.
