Julian Weber is an officer in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and a graduate of Westpoint Military Academy with a degree in civil engineering. As U.S. involvement in Afghanistan comes to an end, Lt. Julian Weber finds himself involved in a terrorist attack by the Taliban, which claims his life.

However, he quickly finds out that death is not always final as he is reincarnated into the body of a Baron’s son and heir in an alternate Earth set in Late-Medieval Europe. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Baron’s young son is named Regent of the Barony of Kufstein and forced to contend with feudal powers. Will he be able to institute reforms leading his Barony into the age of industry?

Or will he succumb to the pressure of his feudal overlords and a corrupt church that seek dominion overall? Collapse

    This novel is a HIDDEN GEM.

    It's truly not easy to reenact history and still focus on the fine details. There's just so much that needs to be taken into account. Author truly did his homework and orchestrated a masterpiece.

      I mean its fantasy insofar as a man reincarnated into a near-earth historical context and said man's exaggerated ability to uplift their technology is fantasy. That said I'm over 300 chapters in and have not seen any "cultivation" in the novel aside from some physical training on the MCs behalf early in the novel.

      He's the type of guy who can stand a single mistake. It's like those Japanese who'd kill themselves as soon as they fcked up. "No. I disappoint my family. I must die to bring back honor."

      Fcking retard. I bet his novel list is filled with "Overpowered" Tags.

    I stopped after that sadistic-masochist side chick got pregnant. I didn't have the strength to continue reading after that stupid mistake.

      Release That Witch(RTW) is a similar kingdom building novel, which has magic element to it . The story was set not exactly in a swords and magic world , but there were witches and magic. This novel was a blockbuster in webnovel. Maybe people find these two novels similar because both are from same genre

    Can someone explain why they keep comparing this tomRTW?
    Don’t tell me it’s because this novel is about world building
    If so does that mean all world building novels should be compared tomRTW?
    It’s like comparing all system novels to solo levelling
    Why compare?
    They are not the same thing at all

      Exactly , people don't get this. Release that witch is way too fast paced, like he developed flintlocks in some 5,6 chapters and brings machine guns when he was clearly a mechanical engineer. Unlike Julian webber who was a military officer .
      This comparison doesn't make sense at all.

      They compare all Kingdom Building / Military type webnovel to RTW because it was one of the first webnovel to do. So they alwasy compare it to the original.

    Except for the last hundred or so chapters RTW is a f#cking masterpiece. Don't bother comparing this to it. This novel is much faster paced and the plot armour is a not thick but its got a couple pounds. It's entertaining, I hope the antagonist aren't all demonized and stupid or I might drop it.

      Release that witch is a masterpiece you say ??
      The protagonist (I.e the one who transmigrated from China to Roland Wimbledon. ) was clearly a mechanical engineer . But he was able to remember the blueprint and the way to flintlocks and machine guns like it was alphabets and numericals . It doesn't make sense for a mechanical engineer to have such deep military knowledge, whereas Julian webber is a military officer who was the rank one student in his academy. And he has served quite a time period in military , so he knows about weapons and war tactics.
      Saying release that witch was better than this , idk what to say after reading that 😐

        The U.S military doesn't teach you how to make flintlocks and other horribly outdated technology, they only care that you can use and maintain the equipment they give you.
        The reason I like RTW isn't the technological progression but the characters and world, Of course the ways they use magic to recreate and substitute processes is interesting.

          Yeah , in your words U.S Military isn't supposed to teach flintlocks and primitive firearms to officers . Then how in the world a Chinese mechanical engineer successful made even machine guns and nuclear weapons in a medival world ?? . Rtw started out good , and it went very fast paced . The construction of weapons and other utilities from modern world must've took a certain time atleast. The author made it seem like some sort of genie .

          This book is not bad when compared to rtw in whose story , the late middle part completely didn't make sense . And rtw isn't that masterpiece too . You can call it a pioneer in kingdom building genre .

            RTW went of the deep end after the dream world was introduced, my main gripe with this novel is the pace. Kinda wish it went a bit deeper with explaining battles and intrigue, usually they just repeat how amazing barengar is.

              Yeah, agreed that here it seems like the plot revolves around Berenger. Unlike rtw where the witches were the firepower of Roland , Berenger doesn't has anyone who has supernatural ability here , so it is supposed to be him who lifts everything on his own shoulders.
              And when Berenger has plans to become the emperor by either subduing or annihilating his foes and gathering allies. The author has to make his character a mighty and dominant man , who's intelligent and brave . We can't accept some half ass-ed dude to become an emperor , right?
