Sometimes you know you screwed up big time. I was like that, an idealistic bureaucrat in a corrupt country. I fought against corruption and always stood for what was right. But eventually, I got assassinated. It was overreaction and overkill. While dying, I swear if I got a second chance, I will be live for myself. I will be selfish. I am reborn, good, my parents look white. Don't be Russian or something. I want to be a first-world citizen this time. What is this? I am in the middle ages, I think. What am I, the 4th prince, yay I am a prince, life of luxury and ... What the f... they have fratricide, only one of the princes becomes emperor and kills his brothers Ottoman style. Oh, to be emperor, you need to gain armies, bureaucrats, and even people's support. When we are fifteen, we all be sent to provinces to govern there, and our success will decide our fate. What a joke. If I don't want my life to be cut short again, I need to be the best damn leader there is. And I am going to survive. What to expect: This is a kingdom-building story without fantasy creatures and magic. Fast pace, chapter to chapter, a lot of things going to happen, you will definitely not feel like story slugging. Brutal and confident mc. Realistic economic and political build-up. Weak to strong progression.
