    I am looking for a novel with the mc being someone who worked hard or was great in their previous life but wants to live a quiet life in their current one. preferably, slice of life and hopefully, not one of those novels where mc wants a quiet life but suddenly gets dragged into various matters. Occasionally, showing off his/her greatness is fine.

    Thinking of a comparison, maybe something like superstars of tomorrow?

    P.S. Doesn't have to be a literal 2nd life, could be that the first half of their life they were more motivated or full of life then smth happened that changed them... I'm bad at explaining this, aren't I.... orz

    Superstars of Tomorrow? The MC still gets dragged into a lot of things. I mean planet size world changing size. That wasn’t really a quiet life, but than again. It sort of was…

    But most of the time, MC just do his own thing hence why it gave me a feeling of him just doing as he please hehe.

    The Lazy Swordmaster - haven’t read this one but I believe it fits

    I've tried the 2nd one but only a few chapters since it was still during that time when it doesn't have much chapters yet. Though, he does get himself involved in things but resolves them without others knowing. Then, he'd go back lazing around :blobrofl:

    As for the first one, it seems interesting. Did you read the raws instead?
    Was it dropped? Lastest translated chapter was uploaded last Feb.
    I don't read much bl but might try. Thanks!
    premise a little short but completed so i might try this one. Thanks!
    Not much chapters yet it seems. Might bench for now

    No idea, I read it quite a long time ago so apart from the basic plot I don't remember much about it.

    Try Top Management or maybe God of Music. Similar to the superstar novel tho i think Top Management might be more of ur liking - however - neither of them are lazy in their actions sooo idk - its just similar to the one u referred to!
