As of chapter 25: Not a bad read so far. Doesn't take place in a military camp at all more of a survival camp. In fact no military has been mentioned so far. Doesn't seem to be dragged on so far, just a slow roll. Only female really mentioned so far, the one in the red dress, seems to be the type that likes to show off her beauty and tempt men to get what she wants. We'll see how it progresses Update: chapter 200 Still not bad, but not good enough to keep me reading. People might say the first relationship was a bit forced. Not really. The girl in question was only thinking in the best interest of her tribe/clan and made a gut decision in a helpless situation. The relationship slowly formed after that. lacks any kind of real character building and/or relationship building aside from the current love interest. Lacks world building, lacks depth overall. Could use better/more crafting depth and/or more crafting in general, to seemingly focused on fighting / arguing. Not enough of a variety in the plot line / depth of exploration. Not bad thriller vibes/keeping you interested in the beginning of what's going to happen, fizzles out by chapter one or 200. In the end I don't really agree that the MC's progression was forcibly slowed. If it was any faster it would seem a bit rushed, the issue is the lack of any side stories and side drama, like interactions at the auction, interactions with the women and or brothers, maybe some more crafting, or other unique storytelling. Something to break up the story from plot progression, because the plot as of this point is seemingly too dull Final rating: 3/5 (leaving as 5/5 for balance)
Not bad so far, will update
Chapters Read: 300 Final Review: Lacks Depth in all areas The start of the story seemed abrupt, with a lack of initial explanations and/or introductions. As the story progressed, the first 180 so chapters were mostly personal development, in minor character building, not enough time was spent in any one area to bring any emotional highs or lows. After 180 chapters the story moved into the kingdom building section henceforth came off as more of a report of a telling of events rather than any kind of story or novel. Improvement could be made in telling the details which would lengthen the story, but make it better in almost every way. For example instead of introducing the dwarves into the territory with a single sentence, a chapter could be taken out where the dwarves come to the human territory the MC meets with them, there's some emotional lows or highs and after showing off some of his plans he eventually wins them over. Same for most of the strange machineries. Time could be taken out to introduce them one by one give some explanation to their development, how specifically they're used in the territories, in the army etc... maybe build it all up to a large war focusing around that strange machinery

Not bad so far, mc acts like a god to a world through a PC. First real battle is a bit weird but so far a small part of the overall story. As of ch. 30 will update
Lots of common tropes, All the families against the MC's family, even The City Lord. MC gets a emperor level technique and emperor body, finds a sword with a beautiful empress in it, then of course finds a spiritual level treasure. That's the first 16 chapters or so. Will update
Balance, will update
Serious lack of a challenge for the MC, game aspect and dealing with other lords is on the back burner for the first 500 chapters. Mc is basically traveling and gaining subordinates and "Building"(for the lack of a better word) his territory. It has kept me entertained but by no means an all star Book/Novel. He just gets everything too easily
Balance, not terrible, not 5 star though
