This review is paid by two powerstones and for the author keeping his work, this is my review to your book. So from start to the latest chapter this is my insights. My english is bad so please bear with me... Writing Quality: Though there are some mistakes in the phrasing and grammars, it was not that bad where you'll find five to ten errors for each chapter. So I'd say this book is well-written and would improve if there are no errors in the future. The way you write emotional scene is immersive and it makes me feel like I'm there in your story. It was not forced nor cringe, it is just natural. So 5/5. Stability of Updates: 5/5. The author uploads chapter every day though with time inconsistency. But who cares right? As long as he upload within the day, it's still one chapter a day. Story Development: I love the way author build the background first to let us readers know the stage of the story. It's not like the other novels where the mc will introduce new technology in like two or four chapters without foundation to the worldbuilding. Due to this, the novel turned into slow pace but that's okay, it's one of the elements of the kingdom building genre, you build up your world first before you invent modern technologies right? The fun starts at volume two where the mc is starting to plan what technology he'll introduce to the 20th century to stipulate his country' economy and modernize his armed forces.5/5 Character Design: Well at the start of the book, we were introduced to five characters. The MC and his four sisters...no actually it was three because it was stated that the eldest one are married to a foreign prince and hence living in a foreign nation. I love the interactions between the siblings where each one of them has unique personality. There's this motherly sister, tsundere sister, and a genki younger sister. Of course for the wife of the MC, even though she was just introduced, I can feel the chemistry between them as they have a lot of commonalities with each other. I should've start with the mc but here we go. Thomas Harrier was a CEO of a largest company and has two PhD, Mechanical Engineering and Biochemistry. With these skillsets, we can now agree that every tech the mc's going to invent is backed up by his credentials. Heck he can even write up code as shown in the latest chapter. His invention so far is not contrived, the mc really explained how he synthesized Streptomycin using a bacteria called Streptomyces griseus. As a medical student myself, I found it interesting that the author really did his research because it was correct. Though not in the way we do in the lab, but the idea is there. I guess it's for the sake of simplicity. We won't really expect the tedious procedure in a novel right? If you do then go read a medical article or theses. The unique aspect in transmigration novels is a fused personality. Thomas Harrier retains the knowledge of his past life but was integrated to the prince's behavior, i.e., Alexander. So there will be times where his emotion will be irrational or foreign to him because there is a mysterious force affecting him in a subconscious level. I disagree to the user above who said the mc is stupid, because he is not. Everything decision he makes has weight to it. If he won't change the constitution or give the people basic rights, things could get bad to him. So he made the right choice of listening to his people and now he got unwavering support from them. I'd say it's a win a win. Just because it's a kingdom building novel and the mc is the ruler doesn't mean he has to rule with iron fist. Heck do you imagine the mc doing that kind of thing? It'll be out of character if he were to kill like a cold-blooded tyrant. Because if that's how thing should work then all of countries in Earth will become an authoritarian state if it's that easy to remove all oppositions. So 5/5. World Background. The stage of the story is inspired by the Russian Empire in the early-twentieth century. Though there are a lot of altered history here as most of the popular people back in that time aren't here. It was confirmed that this world is a world parallel to us, so this won't be grounded from our real history. But! The event such as the Russo-Japanese war can be found at the early stage of the novel. So we can assume conflicts like WW1 or WW2 can happen in this novel. All in all I can't wait for the novel to develop further, this novel has potential to be the best in kingdom building genre in webnovel. It's not like your typical medieval-era kingdom building where the mc will introduce guns, because guns already exist in this timeline, huge big guns. I'm a fan of this genre so I will keep reading this. I'm thankful that you asked me for a review in exchange for powerstones. Because I just found a hidden gem in this website. World Background is 5/5
