One thing Is very clear about this novel. The author put a lot of work in it & did his research which is much appreciated. But 2 things I didn't like about this novel that caused me to ultimately drop it after 110 chapters. 1. the story is too linear & there are rarely any twists. this makes the novel boring. 2. the MC is a hypocrite & nothing special about him.

overall not a bad read. I'm like 700 into this story and it's getting harder and harder the pushing of german superiority is getting harder and harder to follow or read about. main character went from sensible to whole sale genocide is fine. the more I read the more I feel this was written by an axis supporter. Japan and the riech like really.

It is a pretty good novel and it has an excellent translator. The only problem I had reading this was that it seemed more of a list of events happening than a story. the transitions between events were very inorganic and history-textbook-like (not the case for the first arc against his brother). the Wars are very bland and lack the taste of strategy. (this is due to the fact that mc is more technologically advanced). this fact is well established. however, you would assume that other counts and viscounts have their own spy network that specializes in espionage and information gathering. The author leans into "other characters underestimate the mc" a bit too much. It almost feels like he is trying to make the MC an emperor as fast as he can, which in turn messes with the story development and kingdom building.

This is really really good! Research has been done. Story flow is fantastic. World building chef's kiss! Characters are like dressings to a salad. I really like this one. Keep it up! If you wanna know what the story is its about a German Engineer reincarnated in the past as a German but did a ra ra Rasputin who is big and strong and has one eye that is flaming sapphire. His enemies look at him with terror and fear but to his people he is such a lovely dear. He could preach the bible like a preacher. Full of ecstasy and fire, but he also was the kind of teacher that any women would desire. He will rule German land and never mind the Czar, but the Renaissance art, Tudor and Elizabethan fashion he brings will bring up the Great German Empire. In all affairs of state he was the man to please, But he was real great when his with Linde to squeeze. For the Queen Adeka he was no wheeler dealer. Though she'd heard the things he'd done. She believed he was a holy healer. Ra Rah Berenger Germans greatest love machine. He drank hard beers and said, "I feel fine".

hey Author, this is a message from a fan of your novel. I have a few suggestions regarding romance in this novel. can you reduce at least a little L scene in this novel? I felt that their love for Berengar was getting less and less every time. I know, if you've discussed this in the previous chapters, but it instill hurts me to see his other Wives enjoying Sleeping with someone other than Berengar, even though they sleep with other Berengar wives. Reduce or even better stop such things, and make the romance in this novel focus on Berengar's romance with his wife, not his wife with his wife. Hope you take a look at this and consider this little suggestion. greetings from ToS fans.

Honestly, this story starts strong. There's some stuff here and there, like the beyond rabid technological progress and such, but the negatives are more than drowned out by the positives. However, things start to go off the rails after chapter 150 or so. After that the main character becomes ever more unlikable, and his budding nation more or less uses his ridiculous technological improvements to enter god mode. Things are still readable, but I find myself far more invested in chapters revolving around the various harem members than anything actually involving the main character. Especially since as things go on dude's dropping more and more favorable references to 1930s German leaders. Honestly, why is the main character even an American to start with? The author jumps through so very many hoops to make him a 2nd generation grandson of German immigrants obsessed with German history and culture, when he could have just made him a German dude instead of an American. Also, authors, please stop introducing photographic memory into your protagonist's backstory like that totally explains how they can do everything from mechanized farming, to weapon design, to boat building, to musical instrument crafting, to food production. Even if that was how photographic memory "worked", nobody has such disparate interests that they know 700 years of technological advancements in every field of study.

if you want a book where except for a wife and concubine there are no good important female characters in fact apart from family there are no female characters that are skilled it's a male dominated world also it's very technical and very male oriented hopefully I'm not the only woman reading this .

*If you want the short version of this message skip to the last paragraph* I wanted to write this review just because I reread the first chapter and saw a few negative comments already judging the novel within 10 paragraphs. I will say that this has been, hands-down, one of, if not, the best web novel I've read. The writing style is refined, though it does blip once every so often. The character creation can see improvement, but it doesn't just completely rely on plot-armor to solve everything. Yes, there's convenient misunderstandings and escape routes, but, well, obviously the author isn't going to kill off the MC out of nowhere. The world creation is clear, because the author bases it off already existing history with some tweaks. Definitely some controversial subjects that are touched upon that might make some people feel weird, but if you keep an open-mind you'll definitely appreciate the writing. I am fully caught up (186 chapters at the time of writing this) and it is definitely worth the read. 10 CHAPTERS. Just give this novel a read for 10 chapters, and you'll appreciate it for what it's worth. Just like with the 3 episode rule with anime, let's apply it here. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

This is the one with "The Best Kingdom Building and harem" Tag. Hopefully to get one extra chapters on how or what happened to Empire after Berengar died. Love the Ecchi Scenes though. Realism and taking advantage of your crossing advantage. Truly build the empire through years and taking to heart raising and educating children's

My first read in the world of Webnovel and I enjoy it A LOT. Fast paced sometimes, slow paced sometimes, a lot of romance, drama, conflicts, wars, a very complete story. The best and the worst part of the novel to me is the protagonist, Berengar is a excelent representation of the human being when they gain power, how they show their true nature. He is a extremely hypocrite guy, or the type of protagonist who their feelings and actions are dictated for his convenience and autor convenience. Cruel with his enemies but loving with his loved ones but at the same type so fking selfish that sometimes he don't give a fk about his loved ones and take decisions and does things that hurt them deeply and in any ferfetched way throw them the guilt. A sentence that my grandma says a lot represent him very well: The dead man is scared of the slaugthered man. The definition of hypocrisy. But hey don't misunderstand me, this not make the novel less great, just is something that maybe not much readers like.

The story is good, but they have a lot of American nationalism, not only the fact that they mention several times as justifiable invasions of modern times (invasions of the United States) but also the reference to the justification of war crimes, which in the The context of the time of history would not be strange, but it is combined with analogies of more current times, which is why the imperialist discourse that is handled in the work is noted, not only as a historical context, but as a discourse that is applied in the actual times. if you share that political thought you will like it, but if your thought is another, you will be uncomfortable with all those mentions (which are referenced every time the proganista has a speech or a reflection on current events).

Zentmister has created a truly unique Kingdom builder that completely breaks out of the system & cultivation novel plague we presently find ourselves stuck in. Berengar's journey from a tiny figure to a Great Leader while utilizing his unique mindset that shows us the power of gunpowder against Knights has truly been a grand experience. I look forward to reading more.
