The Lord Who Wants to Be Emperor

I gave up after reading over 400 chapters. The male lead's invention, a gun cane, was stolen and plagiarized as soon as it was released. The male lead's brother, a lazy bum, had his arm knocked off by the male lead, and then he instantly became cunning and scheming. The changes were too drastic; one second he was silly, the next he was cunning.

Your profile is problematic, isn't it? The so-called "second only to one person, above ten thousand others" refers to the emperor. Once you become the emperor, you are that one person, so how could you possibly be below others?

The later parts are truly poisonous. This is a magical plane, why force an Industrial Revolution-style plane? So what if they build guns and cannons? A single high-level spell will destroy them.

I feel this book has reached a point where it's neither enjoyable to read nor worth abandoning. The later parts feel like filler content just for the sake of padding. It's supposed to be a fantasy sword and magic farming novel, but now I don't even know what it's about anymore.

There's a passage in Chapter 11 that needs revision: "Therefore, the land belonged to the kings, nobles, and lords." Please read this aloud, author. Doesn't it feel awkward? 😅 Also, this is the second time I've seen the author misspell "all" as "therefore". I hope the author will read it a couple more times before publishing and not be so careless again.

The framework is good, the plot is decent, but then a system suddenly appears in chapter seven. I've become picky because of the first six chapters... Ugh... Thank you, author.

I couldn't keep going past chapter 41. The author simply couldn't portray the cunning and ruthlessness of a powerful figure from a past life. If they couldn't write this character well, they could have used a different one. They had to exaggerate the protagonist's past life so much, only for him to act like a lecherous lecher at the sight of a beautiful marquis (that's how the original text uses…

The premise is fine. But after your rebirth, instead of developing your territory, why are you constantly hanging around in nearby big cities? And why are you constantly altering the future of powerful figures, who are enemies in the short term? This is a fantasy world; do you know what kind of fast-paced writing is possible? Several years have passed since one event.

This author's writing style is a bit disgusting; nine out of ten chapters are filled with grand pronouncements and attempts to stir up the reader's emotions. But it gets nauseating when it gets too much. For example, whenever the story involves war, the protagonist is always spouting a bunch of platitudes to manipulate the reader's emotions. Experienced readers simply can't get into it.

Is the author a liberal arts student? They're not just an amateur when it comes to economic development, they're an absolute novice. They know the "what" but not the "why," fabricating processes based on desired results, and doing so with illogical, forced application. It's really painful to read.
