An Engineer Who Can’t Use Magic Isn’t a Good Lord

Some initial impressions. I came here expecting a story about a lord developing his territory, building infrastructure, and advancing technology (stockpiling grain, constructing high walls, and delaying the proclamation of kingship). However, only the first 130-odd chapters focus on territorial development; the remaining 400-odd chapters are entirely about political intrigue and diplomacy in…

A Western fantasy farming story. To sum it up: it's readable, and I'll continue reading. Advantages: 1. Not a simplistic, light novel. 2. Incorporates advanced technology with Western fantasy elements. 3. No characters with illogical plots. 4. The romance isn't overly dramatic. Disadvantages: 1. Extremely slow pacing. 2. Not purely farming; large sections focus on diplomacy.

🌿, As a civil engineer, are there opportunities to work in fields like theoretical mechanics, structural mechanics, mechanics of materials, and engineering materials? 😏

The protagonist is involved in civil engineering, but then it's all about war and medicine, with no civil engineering at all. I don't know why they chose this name; is it meant to mislead?

The synopsis alone makes me lose all desire to read on.

The author can't write about war; it's chaotic and unengaging, and can't compare to content about development and construction. At the same time, the author is not very good at writing books. There is nothing wrong with the writing style, but he doesn't understand the core selling point at all.

Another thing is, the average quality of these lords is too high! The people who have appeared so far are a bit too outstanding, which doesn't quite fit my impression of corrupt feudal nobles! (ಡωಡ)

The opening is chaotic (bad review), the triumphant part is powerful (good!), The southward journey is long and rambling as a setup (on the one hand, it shows the aristocratic ecosystem; on the other hand, it's so spread out that you can't remember any characters). The book is good from the triumphant part onwards. The opening is weak; an unfamiliar, weak character is hard to engage with.

I thought a civil engineer would go to another world, using magic combined with modern technology to create wonders or build castles, eventually dominating everyone. You started with such a high premise, and now you're just aimlessly wandering around? You should really change the title of your book.

The Wood family holds a leading position in the medical field of the Kingdom of Vaegir. From its most brilliant patriarch, Trotura Wood, the family has inherited the title of duke. The entire family has repeatedly distinguished itself in the face of widespread plagues and other infectious diseases that have swept across the kingdom and continent, attracting the attention of the elves and…
