A very great novel with a relaxing take. I would recommend people to read this but with more of an empty mind. Expectations should not be high nor should the need of something epic happening. There is little action in regards to the main character (it happens with others, the main character is more so the "inventor" that helps others) and is taken place in a foreign kingdom as he helps them grow while making new friends. So far in the novel, romance is hinted but nothing has been done much about it, and a few tropes happen, like misunderstandings. Though do mind that such trope clears itself rather quickly (in a good way and not "MC hides his secret for a billion chapters").I guess if I were to give a bit of a complaint in regards to the novel, it would have to be how everyone is distinct as an enemy or friend rather quickly. For a novel that is meant more for teens, this is to be expected, but it would be nice to have people the main character not be so trusting as much, or a situation where the main character already met someone fated to have good relations for the rest of their lives.But as I said in the beginning, it's really nice if you want a change of pace in regards to fantasy novels. It is relaxing, the MC isn't in an action scene every minute, and there are some rather cute scenes/interactions with the characters. (Also a nice bonus of alchemy and kingdom building (without the MC being the ruler)).
