   Regent x Prince. The protagonist was an atypical general before transmigrating to another world as a prince. A pseudo-substitute, both experiencing their first love. He has a generous, carefree, and easygoing personality; he's a rough, unrefined man, a real knight in shining armor, and a very interesting character. It's alright, but the plot and character actions are somewhat exaggerated and disjointed, a bit inexplicable and eerie... It gets better in the middle.
