BL novels where there is a focus on creating infrastructure!

Finance. Military. Politics. Kingdoms.... more>>

Currently obsessed with reading these kinda stuff. No harem. No romance. <<less

Mostly action some army building or friendship 

Novels where the focus of the story is about the MC impacting the world (or another dimension) from a third person point of view, and... more>> the misunderstandings that come along with it. The MC is either a god/system/dungeon master/mythical non-human entity/IRL lazy bum hikkimori playing god/etc, with some exceptions. <<less
