[High-magic Western fantasy, no gods, lighthearted plot, a world gone morally bankrupt, multiple races, multiple heroines, there’s something off about this church]
Our church has fallen into decline...
Lin Rui is born into a world where the church has unified the entire continent, and a republic under church rule has even abolished the feudal monarchy.
After looking into the doctrines, Lin Rui is left utterly baffled.
Is this church even legitimate? What do you mean I have to arm myself with the invincible ideas of the Holy Lord?
This church looks pretty darn red to me, despite all that white. Lin Rui can’t help but exclaim that he gets it. So a fellow countryman from back home already unified everything over a thousand years ago. What am I supposed to do? Just eat, drink, and play dumb until I die.
Grand Duke: Honey, it’s normal for a three-year-old child not to talk yet, right...?
Court Tutor: I’m sorry, Your Highness. Your son is a born genius, and I’m afraid I can’t teach him. You’d better find someone more capable.
He’d only wanted to play dumb, eat, drink, and coast through life, but fate wouldn’t let him!
Lin Rui: My superpower tells me to use my super intelligence to play a Game of Thrones with them!
This is the story of the foolish son of a landlord in another world.
Years later, looking at the demon queen and others sprawled beneath him, Lin Rui says, “I really only wanted to eat, drink, play dumb, and coast through life until I died.”
