Huh. Maybe it's just because I read RoTK already, but that strategy doesn't seem demonic to me. IN fact, I can remember 2-3 cases where that strategy wins a decisive battle. (Xia Pi and Jing Province comes to mind)

I can agree that the strategy itself might not all that great from the RoTK expert POV
trap/lure and burn, drown or ambush is indeed pretty common in brutal warring era like RoTK heck it one of my most use strategies in those RoTK game when facing a massive armies but for a 16 yr old to pull something like that while "mercilessly killed every survival and prisoner" for the sake of his another goal did qualified him as demon in someway this world citizen tho seem to relied purely on magic and brute force more than strategy Last edited by mickbis; 2017-04-25 at 12:19. |

It should be noted that in this world, not everyone can use magic, which along with the fact that one magic user = several regular people in terms of combat strength, plays a part in the class/noble system. It's mentioned multiple times in WN vol 2 that it's because of this that knights (which are essentially armoured magic soldiers in this world) are powerful (they wear full plate armour yet still move around like they're wearing leather armour for example), but at the same time, causes knights in this world to not be as used to working together in combat (which I find strange seeing as that should not be the case since they serve the country and all, but suspension of disbelief I suppose).
This is not to say that knights can't work together at all or are terrible commanders/strategists, because they definitely can do so if need be. But in terms of combat, they're treated something more like the heavy artillery I suppose rather than like the knights of our world.

Mc couldn't go back to the former world. Because he need permissions from god that govern his former world to repatriate. If he forced it he will stranded in space between worlds and die. Kinda like US immigrations easy to get out but Almost impossible to get in.

Start reading using google translate...
so the land received from the Kingdom is "Wortenia" peninsula... I can somehow see the direction now.. so he will probably end up create a kingdom strong enough to face off Empire |
