I would give this a 4 if only every arc moves more faster bcs the pacing is killing meee. Each arc is so d*mn long, not to mention we got mainly 2 pov. One from MC and one from potential ML? I guess. And few of others pov along the lines.

.

I feel like the author could shorten the overly descriptive explanations and just let the reader takes the intepretation on it's own. I mean we're not that dumb. More plot more arc, more sense of progression bcs hell the story is moving at a snailpace.

(Reviewed at ch 168) What a waste of time. Interesting premise but the execution is trash. Everything is just too much. Overly descriptive, events that described waaayyy to long when it could be shortened to a mere one paragraph was stretched into 2/3 chapters. I feel no sense progression here only boredom. Just imagine, 168 chapters and it's only approx. 3 months passed. And it's not even slow burn, but it's just a mess. A detail that nobody even cared about. Things that doesn't add anything to the story progression was overly explained like we want to read it. And god, what else, the multiple pov also didn't add anything. I doesn't even care abt them tbh. What was the importance? It doesn't add anything significant, jeez. I feel like dying reading this story. Don't read it, i warned u. I give this 2.5 star bcs i appreciate how the author even bother to write thousands of words for this story. If anything that i learned today, long chapters doesn't equal to good story.

Fun but i wish the author can cut all the nonsense abt politics. Everyone is just so fucking selfish that i can't wrap my heads around it. Like i get it but i don't want rationalise it. I feel so go d*mn frustated whenever MC got tangled with all the kingdom wars and politics, like let the kid breathe, d*mn. 500 chapters and the MC is still what, thirteen? The pace could go a little more faster but oh well, no story is ever perfect

It's cringey, silly, borderline stupid but strangely this story make me want to read more and more. Suddenly i'm on chapter 250 and already hit the latest update. I ask myself, what happened?

.Now, if you ever read tensura slime LN then you probably get the same feeling when reading this. This is the light version of tensura, minus the harem girls, wars, big villain, and politics nonsense, basically everything i hate from tensura. This is just MC with a cheat that helps him recreate modern technologies to make him comfortable in this new medieval world. The cheat is def so OP but i dunno, maybe bcs this story does not focus on fighting, so i enjoy the use of the cheat. Like, i approve this kind of cheat for this genre of story. Akin to crispy potato chips you get from the convenience store, it's cheap, light, bad for your health ( but we eat it anyway) and addictive..Conclusion? trashy concept but quite fun execution. It's a good read for it's genre.

Going to be honest here but this work doesn't worth 5 stars. It was not perfect in any means. Let's start with the thing i hate from this story.

.

The speed of this story going is super fast paced. I feel like we're riding on a f1 car that we can't properly see the scenery. When other story suffers from slow progression, this one however, suffers from lack of explanation.

.

Next, powers and abilities were not properly established. Who's the strongest? What is the comparison? All i know is the MC soldier is getting stronger and stronger but i didn't how will they fare with the strongest power. Bcs frankly after the strongest foe come more strongest foe. So who is the strongest here actually?

.

This point brings me to the next one,  Main villain. There's a lotttt of villain in here but none of them is the Main Villain. Many of the villain are not dead yet and the author decided to pop a dozen more. What was even the point creating so many villains like this when there's no big evil to defeat? Who was the main villain here? His reincarnated ex lover and boss? The immortal prince? Like tell me bcs i feel like they're not. And why even they be considered a villain since everyone motivation is the same. To rule the world. Even MC motivation is the same, so what's the difference between MC and his opposition? THAT'S RIGHT, NOTHING.

.

Mc is the most confusing character i ever read in a story. He's reincarnated to the game he created and the moments he wakes up he's already ready to become a lord. His motivation to wage war? Does it ever explained? He want's to rule the world, to make his name etched in the history but why?..... He's not the original Asher. He just inhabiting his body. So where this motivation come from? Like, 21st century man thrust into a game world suddenly think "Let's take more land" i can't fathom it. Sooo weird. Even more weirder when he get that kyros talent. Suddenly he have more foes bcs the talent is alive and it has enemies. God, i'm done.

.

Side characters, pfft. Don't talk abt them bcs they have none of development. Aside from each of them getting stronger we don't know what motivates them. They're either a villain who wants to kill MC, or a subject who loyal to MC.

.

Romance, ugh. Bland as f. I don't even understand why it even introduced to the story. The FL Sepphira is described as the most beautiful women ever alive and ofc MC gotta make her his. And what are the odds that the love of his live comes from a fairy royal family that wants to kill him. Hahahaha.

.

War, more war, and war. That's all you'll get from reading this story. Kingdom building? Yeah s*it. It's just upgrade after upgrade, no satisfaction reading it. There's no active effort into make the kingdom bigger but it's the system doing all the job. Suddenly wall get bigger, road get smoother bla bla bla.

.

3 stars is the most generous i can give since the author even bother to write 300+ chapters. I commend his/her efforts but frankly, this is not for me. Well go ahead and read it though, you'll be the judge.

This story hurts my brain. The villain irks me so much it's not even funny anymore. Xiaocao's grandmother and her aunt are just so vile, her grandpa is f in stupid, both her mother and father are such a doormat, they literally cannot stand up for themselves let alone for their family. It took so much out of me while waiting for their family to separate from the main house. I just can't for the love of god, they all so f in stupid. Fililal piety my a*s, just move out from that d*mn house!.

Now the pace of this story is also super slow, one day can be described in like 4 to 10 chapters. It's too slow and i'm bored. I dunno if u like slice of life at it's finest, maybe you'll like this one.

The constant switch from 1st to 3rd person perspective that occurs in each chapter genuinely hurts my soul. Srsly author pls make up ur mind. Can you imagine, one chapter consists of author's perspective, person A's perspective, person B's perspective, and even person C's. Worse, the perspective changes within sentences. Usually, the perspective switch happens after a page break, but no, the author decides that after person A's narrative, it's time to tell person B's inner thoughts in the next sentence. I haven't read into a hundred chapters, but I can already tell that author like to waste their time building some story that doesn't add anything to the main plot. Like, who asked abt MC mom and dad romance and past in the early chapters? Let's focus on MC first. Why are we even reading abt filler story....Anyway, gotta drop this story early bcs i can't bring myself to read more, the pov switch is horrendous. 

Review update:

I take back my words. The story become full with 2 word sentences and it's driving me mad. Author wth did u think when u write those short sentences. Idk man, just when i thought the story improved from the rough start only for it goes downhill in a blink of an eye. I'm disappointed.

Previous review :

It is decent. The first 40 chapter or so is kinda awkward. The time skip felt a bit rushed, every arc were not established and resolved properly, it felt abrupt. And the banter between each character kinda hurts my soul (it is so awkward, not to mention MC inner thoughts, he's a recluse loser trapped in OP body ). I almost want to quit but the story kinda redeemed itself when we entered the academy arc. The pacing got better, the dialogue flow, character, and plot, everything got better when we enter the academy arc. Now i myself have only read up to ch 84 so i can't say for sure nevertheless i'm looking forward to it

It's good but i don't think this is for me. MC kinda hard to like, his sassy-ness and sarcastic take on things supposed to be charming but i only get annoyed. Not that he's an asshole but, you know if you have a cousin that growing through puberty, he's kinda like that. He grumbles, complains, and laments, which, fair all in all, everybody does that but I wish MC could lessen the 'complaining' and more 'effort'. Also, the take on "ordinary people can be extraordinary by putting efforts" does not do well in this story. MC is reincarnated to the new world and i wish he could bring something new to the table, maybe like i dunno a perk for a reincarnated person? even just one is enough, it doesn't have to be super OP. In this story however MC is painfully, ordinary. He is not special in any way, aside from being a lil bit smarter than his peers. Maybe his special power is not giving up? but he grumbles and complains every time the butler trains him. I mean, you're getting a once-in-a-lifetime chance to get tutored to become stronger, maybe instead of complaining, being thankful would be so much better. MC teachers have done a lot, and the very least he can do is to be more serious and sincere in his training. Gosh, maybe I was crushed by my own expectation. Oh well, he's not the MC I would enjoy rooting. The story is not bad though, everyone should give this a chance.

(reviewed at 100+ chap) Stay away from this story if you're used to super stronk ruthless MC and heavy duty nutty plot bcs we got none of those here. Well i came in expecting fun slice of life story and it kinda delivered. See, most of SoL story tend to have similarities, usually they don't have murder, blood, and super evil people. Most inhabitants are friendly, can be reasoned with and talked to, and even 'evil' can be turned into friends. This story, however, is not.

.Let me explain from the MC first, the MC is naive, a fool, kind, and ridiculously stupid, akin to a 3-year-old child. She will befriend anyone, even a murderous kidnapper who def wants to kill her and r-ped her friend. She prefer talk no jutsu rather fighting, which in this case mostly does not work bcs guess what? The world is not rainbows and sunshine. People kill, kidnap, eat each other, even causing wars. This world is not slice of life genre friendly. Now imagine my frustration seeing MC nilly willy with butterflies and flowers in her head trying to confront dangerous problems with sugary friendship powers. It just not fit and proper at all. Cute things belong in a friendly world, this story world on the other needs power to survive. I'm not saying MC is weak and useless, so far everything is solved with her luck and talk no jutsu, it's just her attitude towards things irritates me to no end. Certain situation need a logical and realistic approach, not everything you can try to talk and befriend with. MC is just too comical for this world; she alone does not comprehend that people can and are inherently evil. I feel like watching my melody thrown into GoT saga, you get what I mean. Instead of fun, I feel frustrated most of the time. If the MC were thrown into a peaceful and kinder world this would be more enjoyable to read. The mismatch between MC's character and the world make me drop this story. Shame bcs i like her birdie sidekick.
