I possessed a character with an intelligence of 100 in a classic medieval fantasy land-grabbing game. An intelligence score of 100. In other words, my predictions always come true. However, I’m weak and frail, and I don’t really understand why this happened, so it would be better to just live quietly.
But then… Leaders who began to recognize my ability started to become obsessed with me
Up to 132 on Devil translations
galaxytl has it up to ch 120 rn. But the tl is somehow very bad sometimes, though I will say it is much more understandable.
if we’re looking at it from a strategic pov it falls short below many other strategy-based novels..
many of the difficult situations the mc is saved by the plot (like the country attacking them getting attacked by another country and being forced to retreat, like a literal meteorite falling on the enemy army out of nowhere)… also his intelligence stat is out of sense, it’s almost at a prophetic level.. although it only tells him the ourcome not the process.. despite all of that it’s an entertaining novel with good waifus, the other side characters aren’t brainless idiots and are well written.
overall this one is above average and I’m waiting for it to be updated..I would recommend it to others, will give it 8.5/10
Read to chapter 59.
It’s a good story, it’s a little absurd how Mc can predict the final action but doesn’t know the cause. A good story, it’s going to be a harem for sure but I don’t feel to bad about it.
This is good
Actually a good novel. Just cut the author some slack on his rough on the edges writing and its fun. Now its time to wait…
I expect MC to be some kind of omniscience being with his 100 intelligence stat.
But what i got is average MC with a 100% prediction skill. The prediction is just “do this and you win” How? Dude trust me I have 100 intelligence.
Yoo, this makes me want to play Brigandine again…
For me its Romance of the Three Kingdom and Bannerlord.
Idk, it could be good but the fact that there’s no build up to most of the conflicts makes me angry.
For example. An army of like 8k just appearing on your doorstep. Y’know I think an army of that size is pretty hard to miss. Or, the fact the you just suddenly get 9000k troops/ like omg bro are you medieval China?
I think there is a time difference but the author doesn’t bother to mention them. Further both the messenger and the armies travel through horse and there is magic or sensory skills so they appear with little time difference.
*no magic and sensory skills
There is certainly a time gap, but the author doesn’t even bother to mention it and goes straight. Not like its bad honestly, even Tolkien said that attempting to depict war strategy in the battlefield stuff in a fantasy story is bullsh*t.
Honestly i would have liked it if it had magic, aura divine power etc…..
It does have magic – that will be one of the long term plot arcs.
It’s a decent read. MC possesses a 4X game that he spent 10,000 hours playing. He is weak, but he basically has a fortune telling ability that activates only when someone else asks him a question. However, the answer he is given is always correct but he is not given the specifics, so he must use inductive reasoning and use his wits and knowledge from the game to work backwards from the answer to convince others to follow his orders. The only way MC can return is by acting as a strategist/tactician and surviving until a Lord game character succeeds and unifies the continent.
Side characters and MC are decently developed, the tactics, troop movements, time progression aren’t that exceptional however.
Read all available chapters – I enjoyed it (even though it clearly will be a harem) – 7.5 out of 10.
Basic premise is MC put in 10s of thousands of hours playing this old time, turn based conquest strategy game, where you pick a lord in a medieval fantasy world and try to take over the continent. He’s so good at the game that the only enjoyment he gets now is when he has the game pick a newly-generated random lord character for him. As he is playing the game one day, he encounters a situation where he is negotiating with a powerful, tyrant of a big blonde woman lord (one of the strongest default characters). He asks his advisor whether his course of action (paying money for a treaty) will work. His advisor has a 99 intellect, which means the answer the advisor gives is correct 99% of the time (note that this is NOT intelligence per se – it just means you intuitively know the answer); the advisor’s answer is yes. Well, the advisor is wrong this time (that 1% chance), MCs character is killed, and then the advisor takes over in the game.
At that moment, MC is brought into the game world – there is some colloquy, but MC says 99 intellect isn’t good enough. So in the game world he becomes a 100 intellect character (who is physically weak). To escape the game and return to the real world, MC has to work for a lord that takes over the continent (and of course he can’t die in the process – no regressions here). So he tries to get recruited by the strongest local lord he think can win, which isn’t so easy because MC is just some random mob hanging out in a bar spouting what knowledge he can. Instead, he is recruited by this lord character who is kind, good natured, but usually gets wiped out early in the game (I’ll call her “cream puff” since that is how the author describes her hair color – I think she is the girl on the left in the picture). He rejects cream puff several times, but then is asked the questions “Can X lord become the person who unifies the continent?” (This is important because he cannot ask himself the questions – somebody else has to ask him for his intellect to work). He tries it with the lord he wanted to be recruited by, blondie, etc, and the answer is “no” – but the only person for whom the answer came back “yes” was cream puff, so he joins her.
And then he starts with with cream puff and her two loyal followers. He gives advice to them that is completely counterintuitive, but correct because of his intellect ability. And things work out well for a time, and of course cream puff falls for our MC. However, some difficult times happen, cream puff has to escape with her servants and army, and MC is then taken captive by and starts to serve another lord. And the story goes from there, except it is clear that MC’s loyalty as an advisor will always be to cream puff (although from a romance perspective, it will definitely be a harem – MC even says in his mind polygamy is allowed in that world, and given you can have up to 4 wives, I am betting that is how large the harem will be).
So the characters are generally likeable (or at least somewhat interesting), the female characters are distinctly drawn, there is some complexity to the world building, but at least in my view it doesn’t get too bogged down with the politics, and it is well paced (I never found myself skipping chapters as boring or filler). There is also clearly some overarching plot involved with MC being sent into the game – blondie lord keeps having dreams about him although she never met him, the advisor with the 99 intellect who failed him shows up in the game, etc. As to the harem, it appears the author will build the harem by having the MC work separately with different people over time, so there won’t be more than one girl at a time (at least for a while). I will be looking forward to the next update.
>It clearly will have harem
I’m sold. Thanks man.
Yo al instante de ver la portada: ésta novela es una joya, seguidor fiel a partir de hoy ☝🥵👌
I’m afraid of no man, but that thing
*The chain on the man’s neck in the cover*
It SCARES me
Waza
Ah finally Harem , but I want to go to sleep
Okay next time
No poison tester make it back alive!?
I can’t help but be skeptical. Novels that promise intelligent and competent MC’s end up just making everyone else stupid to make the mc’s barely common sense some kind of mask for 200 iq.
Anyways, just because I’m in doubt doesn’t mean I won’t read. If that one in a small chance that this novel does have my favorite genius mc then I’ll take the risk and read this anyway.
I wish you luck on this treacherous road, I will await your safe return
The author sidesteps the whole issue. Don’t think of the MC’s stat as intelligence – its intellect. Or another way to put it is clairvoyance or predictive power. If MC is asked a question about strategy, he just intuitively knows the answer. MC even says:
“By becoming an intellect of 100, it didn’t make me incredibly smart or make brilliant strategies come into my mind. It’s that my expectations for a question hit 100% of the time.”
Popular work.. I’m in because i believe Korean people!
YOLO
That…cover scares me
One man’s hell is another one’s heaven
