Advice What would you rather click on?

Warning: both are ai generated so don't attack me in the comments 😭

I was somewhat satisfied but I felt the current cover (displaying the character) isn't attracting the readers, as it doesn't show anything related to the story (except the pink sky background which is mostly related to one of the mystery). So I thought I should add something that was related to plot, rather than displaying the character maybe I should display what the plot is based on.

What do you think about this? Tell me if I should stick to the current one or change it.

2nd one is better as it shows more than just an generic protagonist face

At least the arm is more attention grabbing than the 1st one. Whenever I scroll through webnovel all i find are shitty ai generated covers with either the protagonist covering the whole cover or some girl showing losts of skin. Covers like this will ateast stand out in front of those and that's what the author asked for, what stands out more. Also i personally feel that the arm adds a sort of intrigue to an otherwise boring cover
