Synopsis
With his father dead and his brother inheriting the earldom, Braydon sets out to inherit the family’s neglected title, Viscount of Cliforge, the only land of the Kingdom on the other side of the Brimstone Mountains.
His new lands are on the border that is held peaceful by an uneasy truce and the same lands that claimed his father’s life on the battlefield.
With no reputation in noble society and no military might to speak of he will be a long way from challenging his brother whose land is some of the most prosperous in the empire, and has the backing of their younger brother, who has the smarts to raise their position even further.
Will he become another casualty to the lands that have already claimed his father, or become something more as he climbs his way to prominence?
At least he can be sure that his brother would never see him rise peacefully, and the neighbouring Grand Duke desires the last territory of the kingdom on the eastern side of the mountains. His position is anything but stable, he will do anything to change that and build his realm.
Chapters are posted every other day at 11am/pm in whatever timezone webnovel's servers are

Well, I'm the author so what did you expect me to rate my won novel? Gotta help my own stats, am I right? I am right, don't question it. Either way, I hope that you enjoy my story!
Good story line so far. Hope the author doesnt drop the story. ..............................................................................
The story appears to be a realistic quasi-medieval setting. If there are fantasy parts, that has not come across by Chapter 12. It involves some Noble politics discussions (though nothing too heavy), domain-level building (probably will touch settlement building at a high-level as the MC runs a Viscountcy with 3 villages and a Castle right now), and depending upon direction of development it could touch Kingdom vs Kingdom conflict, inter-Kingdom conflict, and/or both. Combat/Action has all been small skirmish level and social/political by Chapter 12. However, as stated above the story may develop into something with battles depending on plot direction. If you are expecting lots of action, the story might seem a bit slow. However, outside of the expectations of that type of person the pacing is quite good. As the story is always moving forward, and the MC is not OP nor has any special powers/luck that solves their problems instantly. As stated earlier this is a very realistic type novel so problems are solved incrementally over time. There are a lot of potential plot points already (i.e. by Chapter 12), so it will be interesting which get developed fleshed out. Which I mentioned in this 1st paragraph could drastically change the direction/what we see in the novel.
I've read every chapter so far it's a great book one of the best on this app I hope it stays free and it needs a better cover to attract more people other than the cover nothing is wrong with it
Best bOOk around everyone dont miss out cause your stupid and read this beauty. Im Very tierd Of the bullcrap gamIng novels everYwhere on this site.
Are you still updating Hdjfjfjfjfixnfhfuxjxnxjxjfnfjfjfnfjfnfnfjfjfjdhdhdhdudjdndjfufjfjfjfjfufjfjfjchdjdjdufjfhfhfjdjfnrbrhfjfjfbfjfjfjfifjfnrndjdjdjrnfbdhdhdbxhxj
Author has done in job building the story up without taking any shortcut. Would like to see further development of other characters apart from mc.
are there gonna be more chapters? if so when I cant wait until more chapters come out you left us all hanging dont make us wait to long please it's a great book and I will continue to vote both of my powerstones into this book
At chapter 13 so far their are few faults but the faults I would say are major 1 no map for readers reference 2 mc is a Lord yet is too reliant upon his guests help 3 his constant asking about welfare of the girl who isnt a girl but 19 year old woman(not clear) every chapter every 4 or 5 paragraphs he asks how she was. If she was getting better then why would he think to ask after an hour or 2 at most again 4 due to no map not clear layout 5 not clear if mc is a reincarnator or not
This is one of the best kingdom building books i have read. Even though i prefer systems this book is still a 10/10 ........................
good novel and i like the fact that the MC has to use brains of his and people around him to solve problems unlike most other kingdom building novel where the MC is overpowered or use some kind of system.
The MC, Is bad like really bad there is absolutely no reason for him to be the MC. He's not a strategist, he's not a sly profiteer, he's not charismatic. He's just a normal dude. That might sound good but no, It's really not because every time there's a problem he doesn't have the foggiest idea on how to fix it and walks around like a moron asking everyone how to fix it. When your going to write a novel from someone's perspective the novel will get boring if the MC is boring or stupid or just generally way less competent than his advisors at everything he's not good at anything. I understand not wanting your MC to be a garysue but making him boring with nothing he's good at is not the answer to a garysue, this novel would be a 5/5 for me if the MC was special in anyway, everything but the mc is done exemplary well the author clearly took his time to create this world and it shows but the MC for me takes it down to a three.....................................
Please do not Drop the story …. Im so addicted! BIg Please - Will cry. Love absolutely everything about it! It Is such a refreshingly goOd historically based webnovel without any system or harem involved and I’m so so so here for it! ♥️

Great story love the kingdom building aspects ♥️♥️..........................................................................................♥️♥️
This is one of best medieval novels out there. One thing I like most about there is no transmigration BS. The story progresses at even paces
whos the Mc braydon or his ward cuase the man can barely walk without asking for her thoughts, what a smooth-brain exp exp exp exp exp exp exp exp exp exp
Friendly advice. You should change the cover photo of the book. The story is great I love it but to attract others you should have a good cover
