He was a man who excelled at management and the military arts, but had a secret wish.

(Ah, I wish to sell this country as fast as possible and retire!)

However, when he tried to sell the country to another great power, he ended up profiting! And he even moderately won against a larger nation in a war!

His fame ended up rising, his retainers ended up loyal to him.

His wish of retirement went further away…

This is a story about a genius prince who revitalized a nation full of hilarity!

An interesting world and plot. A medieval setting world without magic which is a plus for me.

This novel definitely has the vibe of a lazy person solving problems in the easiest way possible. The MC is lazy, selfish and cowardly but he has the smarts and situational awareness to actually get out of sticky situations.

MC clearly knows that the situation of the country is poor so he plans on selling it off so he can enjoy life but it's hilarious how his plans end up failing as he's so good... more>> that he actually fails to sell off the country

As for the relationship between the MC and the main heroine, they definitely have a great understanding of each other and trust each other with their lives. The romantic element is not strong but you can both feel their bond.

I'm not quite a fan of the humor but it's ok.

The only problem I have is with the writing style. It feels super boring sometimes. MC also feels like a Gary Sue sometimes.

I've also read the manga and it certainly transitions some moments better.

Overall I'd say it's 2.5/5. If the author could improve some awkward moments it'd definitely be better <<less

This series was pretty good. Lots of misunderstandings and failing to fail moments from the prince. I'm really loving this story so far.

A bit disappointed on the translator's website though. Tried to comment on the translator's site and I couldn't find any place to post. Tried to subscribe with my email and it failed over and over again.

I really wanted to like this but it just can't compare to other novels like "I'm the evil Lord of an intergalactic empire", the MC's just a bit too Gary Stu and it becomes a story of a perfect Prince capable of succeeding in everything but selling his country.

This novel delivers. I think this is the only LN that can stand equal with Realist Hero in terms of Kingdom Building. I always loved smart MCs because it's interesting to see what he chooses to do in a certain situation.

First off, the story. You have the general medieval feels. What interests me is, the absence of magic. While I don't have a problem personally, medieval feels without magic hits closer to our world (earth) so it's a plus for me.

Illustration? Oh boi. Gorgeous.

Character Development? There's not much since it... more>> has so many timeskips and we're still early on the story, but the relationship among MC and main heroine was.. I don't know how to say it, but even though it's hardly romantic
Spoiler

well I can see that they both have feelings for each other, but it seems for now both of them knew that they can't just marry each other, because of the difference between social status (which is more realistic considering even at our world back then, Kings won't just simply marry a commoner) which made me think that one of the reasons MC wants to throw away his prince / regent status was for Ninym, only a specualtion atm tho.

[collapse]
at the same time they said lines that are easily my 'top 10 anime romantic quotes'. Heck maybe top 3.
Spoiler

No jokes man my heart literally stopped when he said "Ninym is my heart" and even said such things as "How can I die while I leave my heart behind?" That's so Fkin cheesy

[collapse]

Overall, it's worth a try to read if you love kingdom building, even more when you're a fan of Realist Hero like me. And it's definitely worth the money, since legally you can only read this by buying the novel from Yen Press. <<less

I normally don’t like misunderstood protagonist. However this one is quite interesting. It’s not the type that MC is doing some incompetent thing but result in a good way. MC do use his head. He devise a great plan but it dose not result in the thing he want and benefit the country instead. All in all it’s a good read.

Great stuff. A story of a brilliant guy managing to outwit his enemies in a complex and always shifting political landscape. Interesting characters, brilliant strategies, comical turns of events, what else do you need? I had a great time reading this novel and I hope to see a lot more of it.

The problem is writing style. It's just tell but not show. There's a little element of surprise and many of convenient of good luck despite MC moaning over how shitty the situation it's. Don't expect great tactic/mind games. Or you will be disappointment. It's not bad but not great read either. The strong point in the novel is the humor elements. But at the best is slap-stick comedy and misunderstood protagonist. It's getting boring fast. Don't expect it to be great read but it's not bad if you're bored enough.

MC is not perfect. Half of his problem come from his own greediness.

Also the story breathes Murphy's law

Great example of the problem with “genius” characters, they can only be as smart as the author. Strikes me as the type of story written by a 14 year old pseudo-intellectual who thinks they know everything.

This story has heavy politic element, fortunately the author manage to bring enjoyable story that doesn't feel too light.

You will meet a competent prince in a poor and harsh (environment) country. What I think will make most people feel irritated is that the prince want to sell his own country and act as a lazy bum even when he is actually competent. In regard of this we can actually see that the prince has a good grasp over his own country capabilities and wealth. And realizes that his country can... more>> only stagnant even without the interference from western countries and eastern empire conflict. The author also seem to implies he actually has another agenda as to why he want to sell his own country.
Spoiler

There's a great racial discrimination over the western country and mostly the whole continent about Fulham, and the prince's aide (Ninim Raleigh) (main heroine?) seems to hold a special position in his heart and he want to protect her and destroy those discrimination

[collapse]

Another highlights to this novel is that you can see an interesting side of a prince who actually want to laze and just avoid work. He has great capabilities over domestic and foreign affair, a genius in strategy, gallant and smart in military and also has a good grasp over people emotion and intents. He can easily put aside his pride and honor if that benefit him, in exception when his aide (Ninim Raleigh) is insulted or harmed. Maybe this side of him would make some people say something along the line "why would you even try to sell your own country when you are that capable, idiot?!" or "how selfish of you trying to do that!" but all in all the story is good and enjoyable.

The story progress with the prince scheming to gain his own benefit but by many twist and turn and he end up being looked upon his people as a wise and benevolent ruler. Most of his scheme fall into disarray because of misunderstanding or an accident he brought upon himself. But the author doesn't make other character act like they only have the intelect of drunken idiot that act as a fool to make others look good. Of course the author doesn't potray all characters as a smart and genius but he potray characters from a fair points, a foolish noble as a foolish noble and a genius princess as a genius princess.

As for the translation, I can see translation error here and there but mostly it's a typo and few in number. The grammar, (well I'm not that bright about grammar so let's put that aside). A complain to the translator would be update frequency but I'm a free reader so it's not like I have a say to that.

A good and amusing novel. My recommendation. <<less

This novel is the definition of "task failed successfully" or that saying from some famous guy "give a problem to a lazy person, he or she will find the quickest method to solve it"

The MC here is definitely a lazy person, selfish, and a coward. But, he's also smart and cunning, so that those negative traits didn't show on his subordinates. Because of his talent and understanding of his own country, he knew full well that his country can't be saved, so he proceed to make up his lose and... more>> run. He just didn't expect hand of god saving his country just by pure damm luck lol. It didn't help when MC is actually a very competent guy.

All his schemes to sell his country fast and retire early worked, but it worked too well or some hand of god intervene so his effort can be interpreted as him doing it for the country. Definitely a good read, at least 4 and at best 4.5. But I will give it 5 since a good misunderstanding comedy that didn't made you want to bang your head to the wall is rare. <<less

It's really has similarity to "I'm the evil lord of Intergalactic Empire" - ish. Its funny and author have added some seriousness according to plot. The characters are lovely and has decent amount of grey matter. There is some serious plot lurking behind the scenes as the imperial Princess pointed out in vol02 epilogue.

Overall great read.

I like the story and where it is going. MC is strong and quite a schemer. There are also many instances where MC messes up due to some unfortunate accidents which are actually quite funny but MC is able to turn it into his advantage. Translators are doing a great job translating all those funny and serious moments.

I really like the way the author is progressing the story and giving us the sneak peak towards MC's grand ambition and the steps he has taken towards achieving it.

I really like this... more>> novel and looking forward to read latest translating quickly <<less

Really funny novel. Characters are interesting and the MC actually uses his head.

I normally don't really like misunderstanding novels, but this really stood out to me as something that did it in a way I like.

Hey

This novel is pretty good. It's the story of a genius prince, who doesn't want to take the throne, but have no choice. He is always involved in diplomatic problem with other big country, and forced to take action.

The comedy is good, and the romance is very good. The MC is very close to his lover, and everyone know it. Sadly, at this moment, she's a commoner.

The plot is pretty good, not too complicated, not too simple.

You'll enjoy it, so go read it :)

I love the MC, although he IS flawlessly logical and thinks trough most scenarios, and IS a genius and the frikken best, the Author manages to go ahead and use this to make a novel where you're NOT SURE what the F is going to happen.

Because, the author is extremely good as using the storytelling device of "Take everything to the ultimate consequence".

The way the MC thinks things trough is PERFECT, but nothing is boring because he isn't always RIGHT.

It's a fine balance between having such an OP hero and... more>> using that hero in a way that things don't stagnate or get boring.

This is the main focus of the novel which is why I focused so much on it BUT.

The characterizations and chemistry between the characters is also incredibly good.

Although... I disliked some plot devices typical of japanese authors to create tension (like introducing a character and having that character be a mystery for a couple of chapters until you're told the backstory trough a flashback) even then I found that it was... excusable because it's just a matter of going ahead and reading the flashbacks before the introduction of the character which would make MORE SENSE in a storytelling structure and would relieve the fake tension brought by the character.

Everything is there, it's just jumbled up to create fake tension on the reader which I greatly dislike.

but anyway... go ahead and read this It's a gem, a genuine gem. <<less

The story and the plot is interesting, especially the characters which makes me want to wonder what they plan to do next and how will they do this and that, I am also intrigued with the world itself and the politics which makes want to think future scenarios and the reaction of foreign leaders to the actions the characters make even if most of them were misunderstanding, also I amazed by the creative and smart schemes the characters or author made. Though it would be better if their was more... more>> character development or a way to understand each character more also it would be nice to have more understanding and interaction in the world also it would be nice to see more different opinions from foreign nations, officials and people on the main character. However it still 5 star cuz it was able to peak my interest and made me want more. Also when is the next chapters. <<less

The story is alright and the misunderstandings are fun as well, but the story is a bit slow and the grammar of the translator's website is kinda iffy. Could be better.

A great read. For the longest time I’ve always hated glorified dumb MC, who can only stand out by having brain dead side characters to play with. This novel have non of that, all named characters are interesting. World building is consistent with an ongoing plot that actually moved on it’s own without having MC to involve himself.

Its a nice story

But I have to say I dont understand how people feel abiut national dignity

If big nation station your troop in your country pay for it and didnt violate the law of the land then you should be happy since bassicaly you can use money for defense in other aspect social wellfare for example

Nation exist to make people inside it properous so if it didnt violate that why bother?

Sovereignity? To hell with those if the nation cant even feed or develop the people
