I was actually excited to read a historical fic after seeing this and this is my review. This started off fine, although it feels kind of odd for me honestly. Its been a long time since I read something that starts off as a goddess or god blessing the protagonist due to an unfortunate accident. Feels odd and weird but its overall fine for me. Though him starting as a baby and being breastfed is odd, but i didnt really mind it nor focused on it much. However the moment you introduced those noble children feels forced and since they challenged the protagonist for a duel. It feels like they were only written that way to show off the protagonist's combat skills which feels forced and unnatural. And when you introduced that strange personal maid feels completely unnatural and forced as well. The way you wrote it feels like your trying to add a romance route in the story. Now I don't personally mind romance, but the way you wrote it and introduced it completely destroyed my immersion towards the story. I'm not exactly sure what your intentions are for introducing her, maybe you dont intend to introduce a romantic lead but still, they way you introduced her feels forced. Also when the protagonist only used the system to answer the questions on the entrance exam. Now I dont mind protagonists using some sort of golden finger but I personally dislike it when theyre overly reliant on it. Hopefully it wont be the case all the time. Although I did wish you didnt bestow him the system which feels kinda odd in a historical fic. I dont know how odd but it just feels wrong for me or something. But its fine, it just makes the stort not as unique as other stories which use systems and all. And since he spent a few several years in this world, he shouldve shown some sort of, how do you call this, maybe maturity or understanding of this world. Instead of acting like an arrogant brat by the way he humbled the noble children. But I only read up to chapter 14 and I might change my review once I read more, so dont take this seriously. Im just adding a review before I drop this, since it completely destroyed my expectations on how this novel turns out. But overall its fine, this is just my opinion, I may read this in a day or two but let me feel petty for awhile and drop this novel temporarily after feeling disappointed at how it started. I guess I placed my expectation too high after reading the title and synopsis. But take this as a grain of salt, since i only read a few chapters, my review might change, who knows, I might lower it or give it a 5 stars.

Your opinion on the cliche arrogant nobles is valid but for the rest I'd say give it a month for the plot to actually start rolling before giving a final review.

Hello everyone! Author here. Now as a form of self-pity, I'm going to rate my work 5 out of 5 because you know I like my work. So into the story, as the title suggest, it is an reicarnation of a man from the 21st century to the man, the myth, the legend, Napoleon Bonaparte. Now this is where it gets interesting, you see we have a lot of what ifs for Napoleon. Like what if he didn't do this so that it won't cause this? Well checkmate because this alternate history would offer a new arc divering from the real timeline. And this Napoleon would have access to modern technologies. What's more is that I am reenacting Napoleon's famous battle and change in accordance to what the mc planned for a better result. Now I admit, that there will be bumps in the earlier parts of the story and I don't pride myself in that but what I want oyu to do my fellow readers is that give this story a chance. Like you know read it till 100 chaps. And if you still didn't like it, then thank you for giving it a try. There will be a lot of conquering stuffs in this novel. The real Napoleon only expanded his empire in continental europe, but this one will have overseas. You will witness diplomacy conducting among countries, you will see the reactions from local populace to the highest ranking personnel. You will see real-life figures such as his ministers and marshals, and a lot more! That's all

Okay, while the 2-Stars may sound harsh, I will explain it. Grammar and Updates are 3-Stars because they are okay-ish, but I often see mistakes when it comes to he/she or other things. Also, the author doesn't correct these mistakes when they are pointed out, so there's that. Story Development: I actually like the Story, no doubt about that, but it's nothing special. ( 4-Stars) And this is where it goes down the drain. Character Design: The Mc is beyond help when it comes to nearly everything. Of course, this is a reflection of how the Author wants it to be, but this is just WOW. The Mc is naive, biggest trust factor I have ever seen, has Mood Swings, the Mc doesn't act like one would in the 18th century and it is actually kinda "Cringe" But the biggest fail was when it comes to the World Background. Spoiler: The Author introduces another Reincarnated Person as the FL. In the Beginning I was like: It:s okay I guess. But the more I thought about it the more it didn't make sense and I realized how forced it was. The Author keeps on saying that there is a reason but I highly doubt it because what reason could there be for her to be here? He could have just introduced a random maid from the same Timline that isn't reincarnated or transmigrated. The reason I think WB is 1-Stars is because with her everything is messed up. Why was she allowed to reincarnate? If she is reincarnated then practically everyone should be reincarnated with their memories intact. The Mc got this because the Goddess accidentally killed him( Which I doubt can happen lol), but she? This was just her dying a "normal" death. Nothing special, so this means everybody is reincarnated with their memories intact, meaning there should be other people in the same World as him. Either everybody gets their own World, but it is shown that this isn't the case. Meaning that other People should be there as well which messes everything up. Also, it isn't shown if this is a parallel World ,a Dream World or anything else. It is just messed up and destroyed every Joy I had when reading this and trust me, I had Joy reading this. I like the Setting and Napoleon, but the FL destroyed everything. Aside from the fact that the Mc sometimes uses Words such as "cool" in front of the reincarnated FL before she even told him that. Which Again highlights the Naive Nature of the Mc. All in all: Great Potential, but you messed it up and considering that you won't rewrite this, it's a lost Cause

Everything is just fine, until Ciela was introduced. The MC is so afraid to develop modern tech because he thinks Ciela wouldn't love him anymore, if she found out he is also from the future. To the point he needs to consult here about modern tech before he develops something, so that he can pretend he doesn't know anything about modern tech or the future. It just ruined it, well at least for me.

Illogical and unrealistic plot. Stupid and childish dialogues. Why was the main character given a lot of money for free to develop a steam locomotive? Why didn't anyone question his age? Why do patents for developments ultimately belong to the protagonist? Lots of questions and zero answers. I wasted my time.
