    After some time, quality of story drops and cliche tropes are more. By the end of 3 years agreement hero of Original story is nothing in face of MC who could fight not one but two even three levels more than himself. Story became boring, character development stops and it became worshiping of MC.

    This story is not bad, it's not rushed and give some time for character development. Though it's not without flaws of usual tropes. I would cautiously advice to try it. Also decent translated quality. Thought review only counts for translated part, I stand to change it after reading farther on not translated content.

    Interesting story, i gave it 5 out of 5 because, it interesting not the quality over all. MC don't have system, don't have thousands of wishes and god to help him, he is on his own. Slow burn story, no big japs in money or creating corporations out of nothing. For most of a story MC is a anctor first and foremost that his main gig. Even when he got himself his own firm, he still continue to be an actor. What I really liked is that MC worked really hard for what he had and to improve himself, hiring all sort of teachers to improve himself for roles, visiting gym, diet etc. No harems as far as I remember. Somewhat interesting insides in Hollywood and have it's work. Author may be wrong there, but perspective interesting none the less. Maybe at the time I just had nothing to read, but I suffered through almost 1000 chapters of mechanical translator just to read more.

    Horses don't wear plate armor :) As far as I remember about that battle from school and discovery channel, there was very bad terrain, earth turned somewhat akin to swamp. So under constant fire and dead horses panic, it's no wonder about result. My point about MC was not about general ways of battle and how bows will effect battlefield. AS Author claimed MC has no desire to fight in large battles, what he was afraid off is ambushes and small schimishersAS Author claimed MC has no desire to fight in large battles, what he was afraid of is ambushes and small encounters. Considering that he at the time will have finances to buy best armor money could buy, fearing archers and being archer is not as good as he imagine. Thats all. It' just on many occasions, people don't fully learn what plate armor is arows piercing it is one thing, then some Author make it seems like it so heavy that you could not fight in it. Like knight fell from horse and because armor is so heavy he could not get up or armor made them very slow another misconception. For example there were two types of armor, one for battle and on for tournament with lances. It was made much heavier and thicker so to reduce the force of impact and the likelihood of injury. Anyway I agree with you that there were different types of armor, not all knights could afford full plate, so they were using part plate or even just cuirass with light chain mail under it. Shoulders, hands legs could be still voulnerable. For very poor knights it could be just chainmail, which could be pierced by arrows.

    An archer can do that though, as long as he was a good archer, was a long distance away and he had arrows. Plus the battlefield was safer in the back than in the front of an army.

    There were no Bows that can pierce plate armor, it was proven on multiple occasions during the years. Remember when crossbow got into the picture they were outlawed by church because they are the ones that actually could pierce plate armor It was weapon that any peasant could use and it would be effective against knight, and knights represented nobility basically ruling class.. Armor is not something that have health like in the games, it doesn't matter one archer or many it will not pierce plate armor. Lucky Arrows can land in joints between pieces of armor yes. But, it is lucky shot not piercing the armor itself. You have to remember that knight is not just standing there waiting there like some manikin he is constantly moving and using shield. Places where such arrows could hit are actually small and very hard to hit. Why Bows were effective and used? It's because kings and lords were using largely peasants in the armies who had very poor equipment and was wanerable to arrows. But they were effective in formation against cavalry, because of spears and large numbers. Good Plate Armor cost like sport car at the time and there were a reason that people were willing to pay such money, because it was extremely effective.

    An archer can do that though, as long as he was a good archer, was a long distance away and he had arrows. Plus the battlefield was safer in the back than in the front of an army.

    Scene when they were taking the prison, convict was ready to kill him.

    But when Airon felt this sensation, he knew he was heading to a dangerous place. Considering this, he felt really intrigued. The last time he felt this sensation was when he looked at Andrew, at that moment he knew there was danger.

    Same to you go on youtube and see experiments done plate armor vs bows you will see results.

    On open sea? Fool's errand! flow of water in open the sea may be so strong that he have no chance to get to the shore. They did experiment, with olympic champion and sea flow in swimming pool and he could not overpower it. Swimmer resistance to the flow was only for short while like 30 seconds to 1 minute.

    It had only been 2 days since they caught him so Joa is confident that he has enough strength to swim to one of these but the same problem comes up.

    Yeah he should be around 30 and she 13

    Then they will be in so-called love tragedy, a dumb and naive sixteen-year-old kid and a twenty-year-old man. These gross barbarians knew how to fuck things up, don't they? I mean in their unintelligent minds how did they think their so-called love was going to end?

    Hundred yeah that make sense, but, you have to remember that Ironbank exist many time longer then any bank in our world. Making them stupider does not make sense, as you shown how your character clearly smart and very careful for him assume this and having such arrogant thoughts seems off to me. If it was his character flaw then it's fine, he may be arrogant but not at cost of his safety, thinking that you are a lot smarter than people who did this kind of job for more then 500 hundred years don't make sense considering Arthur character.

    Heh, keep dreaming. I had knowledge of the future and so many scams and illegal strategies that even the hundreds of banker's minds combined couldn't come up with. My strategies were hundreds, possibly thousands of years ahead of theirs.

    Funny thing is, that not only the woman in this world. Our world I personally did see how easily girls fall for men with high status and good looks. One even believed after first meeting that he would marry her after he lied and she was in her early thirties. It's not the world thing it's the Who that matter.

    The women of this world were also easy to trick, I just had to act as their knight in shining armor and use some cliche lines from some books. After that, they just pretty much threw themselves at me to take their maiden hand (virginity) before they got married to some old man who probably won't even be able to get it up.

    That kind off, not as good at it on the paper. Over all strength with this training may be better, but, it have nothing to do with sword training and power behind swing, because the is specific muscles that responsible for that. You give a bow to the strongest man in the world and he may fail to draw strong bow while archer who trained with the bow his whole life may easily do it cause they trained different muscle groups. You have to remember while our world may progress in million different thing better than world of Ice and Fire, they there may be a lot better where it concern sword and bow combat. Because it long out of practice in our world and have almost zero practical use while in world of Ice and Fire, was stuck in one age for long time, and their training practical and helps them survive. Even if compare our world medieval experience and theirs we lose it by miles. So when it comes to practical use of close sword combat people of Westeros may know better.

    The other knight's sword flew away, Arthur's power was quite something to behold at this time as he trained by modern techniques and had a relatively modern diet.

    While I agree with logical part of MC thoughts. They are somewhat short sighted, because he himself plans to use blood magic, think about it for a second. Magic. He knows canon, so he knows that at least one pseudo deity exists, R'hllor. So, this seems naive traditions that he may take advantage off may exist for a reason beyond mortal man tradition. Not necessary but, you as Author portrait MC as smart and very careful person. Considering his knowledge it somewhat out of character for him to not think of this possibility. As pragmatic person he may dessimis this, but to show reader that he is smart person, he should have consider it.

    Arthur didn't care about guest rights or any other tradition of a savage world. He would rather look after himself and make a situation beneficial by abusing these people's naive following of tradition.

    I say untrained man can be more dangerous with the sword to themself then trained opponent.

    Arthur chuckled at the mention of the joke. He knew that the man before him didn't know shit about battles, yet had the balls to insult others. Small folks, no matter how untrained, can be dangerous once you put a sword in their hand. Anyone can be dangerous with a weapon though.

    That highly depends on what opponents are, if opponents are somewhat decent armor bow is completely and utterly useless. Yes against light armored foes it would be easier to kill them with the bow for sure. Bot no the ones that dicently armored. Then about numerous opponents if they are trained to fight knights, then yes your statement would be true they will easily overwhelm lonely knight. But if they don't know how to fight fully armed and trained knight, I would not be so sure that knight would be defeated. Just to get what I mean please watch "The Knight of Hope". Somewhat realistic fight of "knight" against "bandits". There is shown that armor is not just for show and it not tissue paper.

    An archer can do that though, as long as he was a good archer, was a long distance away and he had arrows. Plus the battlefield was safer in the back than in the front of an army.

    Well I think this is a mistake. Because creating stuff is not only thing that genius intelligence is, i the way character thinks, the way he views the world, ect. Writing proper high intelligence character is Very hard. And put high expectations on character, and when in 99% cases he fails because he continue think like average person. Only leads to disappointment of readers and quienety of story over all. It's one thing to write about average guy who got super strength, but he still think like an normal person, but writing character of Genius intelligence when he still thinking like avarage guy....

    And to top this all off, I had another insane boon, which was called 'Super-Genius Intellect' which I think it does what it says. Giving me a mind now akin to what a super genius has.

    I did read this story up to 552 and can tell it is good one up to certain point. Confrontation between MC from the book and his creator with his villain subordinate done well. Villain is not too OP, intrigue is still there and it strong enough that you can't help but worry for MC. Because he have plot armor protection. There is somewhat grow of a villain who became a lot more likeable and dicent. There are a lot less cliche over all and the ons that there done nicely and don't cause irritation. So for large part of a story it's all about interaction between Villain and Ancestor, grow of a villain as cultivator and as a person. As well as confrontation between teachers when they take temporary take over bodies of their disciples. All of the above is best part of this story. ATTENTION SPOILERS!!! After 350+ chapter MC of this story and Author of created world resurrects. The way it was done the scene, it's really good, despite reading with translation. But after that point story become your typical cultivation story and likeable MC, who is from our world, becomes typical cultivation story main character who can fight couple of huge realms above his class. With typical behaviour for such characters. Really disappointing. Don't get me wrong story is good enough that I was willing to suffer mechanical translation just to read more and don't wait for quality translation. But it's quality start to drop after 350 chapters. So if you are looking for somewhat unique and not your typical cultivation story with interesting main character, it lasts only up to that point.
