   Haha! ✅ Starting from infancy ✅ A pure butterfly effect story ✅ 3.9 Million words in reserve, enough to keep you reading to your heart's content. To be honest, the first 500,000 words are indeed a slow burn because I want to solidify the growth of a child in this era. But once you get through the setup period, you'll find that every foreshadowing has its echo, and every move is interconnected. Few people write about the Three Kingdoms "starting from infancy" because it's too difficult and tests your patience. But I just want to try it out: how can an infant who knows nothing reach the top in an era full of heroes? If you have patience, this book won't let you down.
