Synopsis

Kyrie never suspected that she would find her way into the home of the most infamous figure of the Terra Kingdom! Lady Mae Dandridge--a woman rumored to have killed her former husband--needed someone to take care of the animals in her menagerie, and so Kyrie joined the ranks as one of her slaves. Working in the Dandridge household isn't quite what Kyrie expected it would be though, and she soon begins to find love and happiness among the four other slaves in the house.

Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower

In the apocalypse, Bai Junjun and her arch-enemy wiped each other out fighting over resources. When she opened her eyes again, she unexpectedly found herself in ancient times. The apocalypse's big shot had turned into a refugee fleeing famine. War, famine, plague, bandits... dangers lurked everywhere. Fortunately, her Special Ability had followed her. The Wood-series Ability was incredibly useful in fleeing war and famine. Facing famine, a flick of her fingers made food grow wildly. Facing plague, by casting a Healing Technique, she became immune to all diseases. Facing bandits... as long as... as long as she aligned with the strongest Seven-Person Team, who would dare to attack? There was just one problem—the leader of the Seven-Person Team was her ex-fiancé, who was one foot in the grave. That was a bit awkward. They used each other for their mutual benefit, She provided food, and he ensured her safety. But... the ex-fiancé was a bit of a glutton, wasn't he? Until an accidental intimate encounter, Bai Junjun suddenly saw a vast Space. Wait a minute! The food that she had grown with her Special Ability... was it all in here? This guy actually had a Space! ... They broke off the engagement at the height of prosperity, and they reunited amidst chaos. When both the male and female lead have changed their hearts... Two max-level bosses meet on a narrow path in ancient times, eventually joining forces in a story of internal spiraling competition.

Review based on chapter 1, will update every 5-10 chapters as story progresses. "Translation" is not applicable for english-speaking audiences, as this is an original work. Likewise neither is update stability, as it's the first chapter with no timeline or schedule given to compare against. This leaves the final 3 categories to judge against - Story, Characters, and World. The story is the "weakest" of the three, simply because this is the first chapter of a longer work. I waffled between a 4 and a 5 rating because of this, as it's still too early in the work to judge if the story is a strong element we see the characters experience, or if the story is emergent from the characters, their interaction, and their growth as people. Rated 5/5 because as there are several hints towards long-term plot without any indication if it will be plot or character driven, which in a first chapter is an accepted line to walk. The character designs start in the first few paragraphs as sketches, barely more then outlines. Had they stayed that way I would have rated it low, but even in the space of the first chapter huge swathes of the two perspective characters have been filled in, and even were there no development of the others would warrent a 4. But the author does provide glimpses of the Lady Mae, Issac, and the groundskeeper! Suggests towards character-driven development, and provides a very strong basis for it. The world this happens in is left unsaid, but provides information about it enough to create an image of it after just the first chapter without ever directly falling to exposition. As with the other ratings, based mostly off potential and what is left open/in progress towards from the first chapter. Overall, a strong initial segment. As a constant reader, I rarely find historical romances that hit these notes as precisely as they are here in the first chapter. Will update periodically as the story progresses.
