A really good original novel that you won’t regret giving a read. Writing Quality - Not much to say about this because there are rarely any obvious mistakes I can pickup on. Stability of Updates - There are regular updates (Though, there are never enough chapters when you really enjoy a story). Story Development - I like the current development of the story and you can tell the author is either well read or has done some research into the current specifics of the story. I would like to have a closer look at the actual system and the main uses of it for the MC, because at the moment the most important aspects I can think of are the map and crafting. It feels like he has been neglecting his responsibilities as a Lord in his own territories and I would like to see his making better use and giving a better look into the running of his current lands. With all the statistics available from the system I would think that he could create some medium long and easy to understand plans? Character Design - The character designs for the people that matter are well thought out. Even some side characters and the general attitudes of the nobles proves enlightening. The only thing that irritates me at times is the Main Character and his many tangents. Though, I suspect that is a design of the author on purpose. It just seems like the MC likes to jump from one thing to the next like an excited child and not being able to wait to show his efforts to all the people (Yet having nothing physical to show for that idea yet) World Background - The general lay of the world is proving to be well written. I’m not particularly well informed on polish geography and what has been established is well done, It would prove useful for the author to at some point once the MC has a stable land ownership to creat a map with the different colour coding to show who owns what (I find it helps with visualisation). Overal, a fantastic piece of work.

LIKEThanks for such a great review! As for the map - most of the times, whenever I write something about a particular land, then I'm simply checking its history to find out who owned/governed it at that time, since most of the major household kept their land in the sparsely populated areas of the east and south, limiting how much interaction MC can have with those families. The instance with the SPOILER Cherrie family happened mostly because how infatuated I'm with the character of Jeremi Wiśniowiecki (Jarema Cherrio in the story) so I dig up his ancestry line as to have my MC be capable of influencing this great figure who would prove to be one of the greatest leaders within the country and the father of the elected King of Commonwealth (who despite how well educated was, simply happened to rule in bad period of time for his talents to be appreciated). As for the system, I want to keep it ambiguous as much as I possibly can. While I already have some plans for it, you will need to wait for the next arc to understand what I have in mind with those words! Overall, it's rare to have such a detailed review, and as such, I can't thank you enough, while silently cursing you for pulling me away from writing the next chapters after I managed to pick up my lappy after bidding farewell to all three groups of visitors that disturbed me xD
