    Overall, it's not bad, but there are a few minor issues. First, the use of the term "baby" is a bit off; using it occasionally is charming, but using it constantly makes the author seem greasy! Also, after all that build-up about the businessman and the strategist couple, it's abruptly dropped. What was the point of all that? It feels a bit anticlimactic! Furthermore, after meeting the monk, the character learns martial arts, but it's never actually used. The only time he tries to fight, he gets poisoned by the prince – hilarious! In short, many details are poorly handled! Otherwise, with this level of writing and plot, this novel is quite good! Keep up the good work! It's worth reading!
