All I can say is, authors should never write about the Red era in the Middle Ages; it just makes it seem mindless.
Mindless and unsatisfying novels
It wouldn't be as effective as simply writing a story of a protagonist who effortlessly overpowers his opponents. The author clearly doesn't understand the concept of 120 armored cavalry. Even if the manor's 400 weaklings were mostly elderly and disabled, what difference would double that make?
Let's rebuild the elementary school. Can you even think about what fifty meters means? The ceiling height in our rooms is usually three meters. It's already quite far for two people to face each other at five meters. If you put someone at fifty meters, you can't even see their face. In ancient times, it would have been very impressive to hit someone with an arrow at fifty meters.
120 Fully armored cavalrymen attacking unarmored villagers... Although there's a manor, the battle descriptions are terrible. How big and tall does that manor have to be for falling rocks to pierce a helmet?
The last two chapters are a bit too abrupt. The female supporting character rises to power entirely thanks to the male lead's martial arts skills. At this point, instead of a political marriage to deepen their relationship and get closer, they inexplicably drift apart because the female supporting character gains power.

The horizontal lines are compressed, making the text illegible.
I saw someone say this was written in AI.
I dare say this is absolutely impossible, because AI is very good at math, while the author's math skills are beyond what you'd expect from a PE teacher. His math level is so low it's like he couldn't even graduate from elementary school. It's not a matter of passing or failing; his brain is single-minded, with a kind of educational quality.
It's pretty good. The story of a common farmer's son growing into a knight certainly requires some special abilities, but overall it's quite enjoyable.
I read a few chapters and it was pretty good, but it had one major flaw: it made the same mistake as other novels. The family's financial situation was average, but the younger sister was fair-skinned, clean, tidy, and beautiful.
They've already signed a contract? Could this really be a secret account belonging to some big shot?
