Honestly considered giving this 5 stars in spite of its flaws, but then it went full nonsense.

Spoiler

Basically, the protagonist is told "if you don't want to live as I command, then go for it. But I'm going to destroy everything you build up and force you anyway, " and the protagonist goes "aw shucks, I don't want to be forced into wars and very likely die fighting a pointless battle, but I do owe them (they don't)... so I'll be even more affectionate now!" Worse is that they pretend this has a deeper meaning when it's just pointless hostility framed as charity.

Aside from that, the story is 95% introspection and exposition. That's the greatest flaw with it, though the spoiler'd section is responsible for my rating this 2 stars instead of 4. There are conversations that take multiple chapters, because someone says one sentence, and then the rest of the chapter is exposition followed by introspection followed by more exposition. This is being set up to be an academy story, but if it continues as it has for the 40 chapters I've read, it could very well be another 40 chapters for a single day's worth of classes.

It's a story that begins with a lot of potential, shows a lot of world-building work to the point of being a detriment, and then takes a sharp downward turn for seemingly no reason. It's still possible for it to salvage things... but it's set what should be a major future plot point on some pointless stakes and pretends an obvious antagonist isn't as bad as it has openly showed they are.

Actually reading the interaction I hated, you might come away thinking it's not nearly as big a deal. But when so little happens in any given chapter in favor of trying to tell us everything about the world as quickly as possible, I'm not interested enough anymore to trudge through it all. I like a lot about this story, it's just the execution that's the problem. <<less
