OP Main/Side Character - Action/Martial Arts/Murim - No Romance

I'm not against romance or mc end up with a girl BUT I rather not want mc to end up w/ anyone.

Most of these really hard to find bc the rom will appear out of nowhere when you've read 130+ c. I want a fuckin loner mc. literally asexual mc.

I'll prioritize no rom>subtle rom on this list. so you'll find no rom at the very beginning of this page.

The First Hunter

- no romance

- op mc
- completed

The story and art is pretty good. The ending, you could argue that it seems rushed but I personally think its ending perfectly. People nowadays says every ending is rushed for some unknown reason, including the series Noblesse (which i disagree). the novel is not long so i think this amount of chapter is perfect. although sometimes there is a weird part (i assume the manhwa skipped some part) where it made people confuse lol

- no romance
- no harem
- op mc

this is an enjoyable read for me personally. bc i always love playing as necro in mmo.
also the romance aspect for this manhwa is non existence. its ridiculous for me to say this but i actually lowkey ship the mc and the girl (jisoo) lmao i guess this is the type of 'romance' that worked when a reader such as myself actually began shipping them.

Boundless Necromancer

 9.1(329 voted)
Ongoing
Author(s):
Genre(s): Webtoons / Action / Adventure / Fantasy

- subtle romance? (for now its unknown yet,but the built up sure going in that direction.)
- harem? (honestly I'm not sure, but almost harem i think)
- op mc

the story is pretty good,at first that is, but after 50 chapters its a bit... the more you get in the chapters,the more you'll see how cocky the mc have become.whether its in a good way or not, its up to you.i personally feel its a bit, unpleasant.

note: i stopped reading this at chapter 30 and will not continuing. i have alot to say but to sum it up, its just not what I'm looking for. like other op mc manhwa, there is already progress 10chap in, but this one is so slow that i question myself each chapters 'are we there yet?' as in where tf is the action.

both the trash of the count's family and omniscient reader's viewpoint has absolutely zero romance btw!

thanks for letting me know! I've read both manhwa recent chapters (manhwa only, not novel). omniscient reader, Isn't the mc somewhat interested with his female coworker? (already forgot their name). I'd put 'no romance' if there's absolutely no romance between them. it seems both of them interested with each other, based on the manhwa on recent chapters.
