The Middle Ages: Kingdom Come

"You're the damn pickpocket who reached into someone's wallet?" The guard scolded. "Wait a minute, I have something to say. It's a huge misunderstanding," the anonymous thief, Henry, quickly explained. "What misunderstanding?" The guard asked, puzzled. "I was robbed here not long ago; they took my wallet. I thought the wallet that guy had was mine," the thief explained innocently.

I've read the first thirty or so chapters so far, and I really like the protagonist's character. It's just that the author doesn't seem very popular. I looked through the author's previous works; over a million words of them were never published—it's purely out of passion. The author's character is much better than other authors on Qidian.

After checking some information, I found that the protagonist was able to participate in the Hundred Years' War, the fall of the Eastern Roman Empire, and even have an encounter with Joan of Arc (although the protagonist should have been quite old at that time).

First of all, this book is not a completely factual European medieval time-travel novel, but a folk legend-style time-travel novel based on the story of a computer game called Kingdom Come: Deliverance. The protagonist has a skill point allocation system that integrates two games, Kingdom Come: Deliverance and Mount & Blade.

It's a very classic chivalric novel, but the protagonist is also quite appealing. He's a good person who isn't rigid or dogmatic. Good people are rare, but a good person who doesn't flaunt morality, knows how to conduct himself appropriately, and is flexible is even rarer. The protagonist possesses a cheat-like ability but isn't a slave to power; his goals are very clear, which is truly rare.

When I was playing games, I thought they were all so ugly; not only were they ugly, but they were also smelly and dirty.

First, let's address the most pressing concerns from readers regarding potential pitfalls. After reviewing the text, I found virtually none. The book initially unfolds within a game-like framework, but expands its world-building in the middle stages, making it a commendable work within the Heavenly Kingdom fanfiction genre. Overall, the book is commendable.

The salary system is outrageous! A count earns 5,000 coins a year from his territory, a high-ranking knight earns 3 coins a day, which is 1,100 coins a year, a mid-ranking knight earns 2.5 Coins a day, which is 912 coins a year, and a low-ranking knight earns 2 coins a day, which is 730 coins a year. How are you supposed to support your troops? Can you even afford it?

Getting the lazy king to acknowledge the protagonist's legitimacy? Impossible. Even ignoring the fact that the lazy king knows the protagonist isn't his child, the question remains: would the lazy king grant the protagonist legitimacy, given that the protagonist is the child of King Gigi, who imprisoned the lazy king for years?

Could the author please not collect so many women? 😌 I think it's better to have one or none at all. Isn't it better to focus on one's career? Also, when I played the game, I really felt the characters were ugly; I even used a character model modification mod to play it. Why does the protagonist find her attractive?
