> "If you do X, I'll kill you." It wasn't a threat, it was a promise.

My brother, that is literally a threat.

Bonus sentence I just read:

> "He would have to defeat them. Alone, with nothing more than his Ancient Power."

I don't get it. There are so many, so it must be popular. I'm trying to read about a baby who is cultivating or leveling up or something, but it's just a baby. There's no interaction with the outside world, barely any characters, there's no goal to achieve, no stakes, no mystery, no urgency, it's just a baby with adult thoughts and it's kinda cringe/creepy

Can someone explain the appeal to me?
