Name: Realist Maou ni yoru Seiiki naki Isekai Kaihaku (リアリスト魔王による聖域なき異世界改革) Raw Link: https://ncode.syosetu.com/n2360eu/ Why It Should Get Picked Up: Good fantasy novel with both domestic affairs and strategic battles with a realist mc Description : Ast (diminutive of Astaroth) awakened on a ruined castle as a new demon king. By making use of his "previous life knowledge", he manages his territory as a thorough "realist". "Demon king, why are you attacking the level 1 Hero?" "I'm killing him before he grows stronger, that's tactics." "Demon king, why are you sending fake money to the enemy's country?" "To throw in disorder the enemy's economy and make it self-destruct." "The werewolves forces are attacking, do we use silver bullets?" "Don't use bullets, use the cannons." This is how Ast "reformed" the old constitution. He became a lord loved by both his people and subordinates, and eventually he will be known for generations as the strongest demon king. LN Cover:
You really think people never thought of that? Those heroes are generally protected by plot armor. Just look at what happened with Voldemort. Poor dude got himself killed by a baby. And why cannons, unless he's using scattershots? Edit: still want to read it though, could be amusing
LOL that dam summary was too domineering!! Too badass. How can it not be translated yet? I really hope LN is translated as it's higher quality. I don't think I'd be satisfied with just WN version when it comes to a rare gem like this...
+1 Since this sounds like a novel I’d love to read. And, for the measly price of one translator, I’ll even throw in my skills as a proofreader if a translator picks this up! That’s right, you get an awesome sounding novel, AAAANNND a free slav-I mean a free “volunteer” proofreader if you pick up this novel!
not sure if I should read this or play Europa Universalis, seems like an MC I can relate to, especially this A beautiful strategy I should say.
Native speaker here. I've translated 3 chapers of different series for nothing recently. I really hope that no one else was thinking about doing this.
Well, you have a reader in me! When you post the first chapter, let us here on this thread know. Can't wait to read this.
