A nice premise, where an ordinary Earthling was reborn into a noble family. Deemed to be a fool due to his silence since birth, the MC was left to his own devices, eventually being exiled to a far off province to avoid spreading his ‘contagion’ to his newly born younger brother. However, several twists of fate meant the MC would find himself being acquainted with powerful magicians and warriors, sending him further and further away... The early chapters were good, very nice world and atmospheric building, even though the MC is a little unlikable early on. The story veers off to strange paths, I was enjoying the ‘being a minor noble heir’ part when suddenly he was whisked far away, not once but twice. The focus from wealth building suddenly shifted to magic and later on, martial skills made me question the direction of the story. There are many unexplored mysteries and fortuitous connections within the small cast that are continuously being pushed into the back burner, and some characters were built up only to be written away because they don’t fit the current arc. Decent, have to read more to recommend it. Requires time-investment and patience.
