if i could give a 6/5 for the world building i would! truth be told i didn't expect much from another transmigration novel but it already sets itself apart from the others with the synopsis—alexander the great but in space? the writing flows smoothly and there are rarely any places where it's stiff or stutters, and the prose is not overly flowery either! the main character alexander is simultaneously a stereotypical op mc but at the same time he's NOT. his narrative voice is hilarious and really fun to read and i quite like his anger haha. (and when the AI was squealing haha flashbacks to "Alexander was only defeated once, [...], and that was by Hephaestion's thighs") i also like the emphasis and attention you put to other characters as well. instead of having pages upon pages of Alexander's recovery or a timeskip, you switched POV and gave us more exposition inbetween the plot of the politics and war already going on so it's not just the AI explaining things to alexander. i'm also curious do the races have naming customs? like the humans have intact names like "Shiranui" and elves have "kan-dari" with the dash and the zantrolls have apostrophe "Liz'an". if so that is very cool attention to detail and i applaud you for giving that much thought to your worldbuilding. of course with most male-focused transmigration novels i expected the female characters to be quite shallow, but you really fleshed them out! instead of just a powerful, loyal sidekick, Aleyria is badass and an authority figure and smart as heck! her conversations with her guards are fun and REALLY enjoyable and human. i look forward to her interactions with Alexander and how fun their dynamics would bounce off each other tl;dr you should be very proud of yourself author. this is a complexly woven epic with a cast of enjoyable characters and succinct prose. only so many chapters so far, but this is getting bookmarked for sure! i will still around for a long time and that concludes my honest review >:3

Wow, thank you very much for such an EPIC review! I am really glad you liked it! I feel like a Mustang which just got topped up with Octane 100 :D The names were customized to their races, got my inspiration from Warcraft hehehe. Yes, Aleyria is sort of the 2nd MC, no way she's just a side kick! Thanks again :)
