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.
