The story follows an outcast of a prince named Prince Philip Tenebris Gladia, the crown prince who is known to be weak and incompetent. At a young age, he loses his mother to a mysterious heart attack. In later years, his father, the king sends him to a barren town and a royal quest, and the king orders him to develop the land once more. Once there, he is betrayed and left for dead but survives in some shadow-like void in which he meets his dark counterpart, his shadow.

Now fully revived and merged with his shadow, Prince Philip is met with emotional struggles, physical battles and interesting mysteries of the land, himself and his royal family.

Yunno, I wasn't expecting much from the synopsis. I thought it would just be the usual outcast rising to glory story but I was wrong. Philip is incompetent only physically, his mind is nothing like that. I don't think his mother died from natural causes, i suspect that she was assassinated or poisoned because he couldn't rule and the crown prince would be of questionable birth if his mother wasn't the Queen. Moldovia's royalty, huh? she's a huge suspect, her son, Daniel and his father too. It's funny how peoples character change in the twinkle of an eye. one minute the maid's giving him an open invitation, the next she's glaring because he rejected her advances. An the ridiculous part is she thinks that he didn't see her. Just plain old greed for a prince who won't even ascend the throne. The plot is very rich. Keep it up, author.

This is my honest opinion on this book. I enjoyed reading this book. The story was very enticing to read. Every chapter makes me want to read more. I don't recall finding any errors or flaws.It was a really fun read. Some parts really made me laugh my guts out. I am a sucker for fantasy stories and this one is a real winner. Reading it, I could see the characters coming to life. If there was an adaptation, I would watch it. It's pretty cool. I've nothing negative to say about it.

It's not very common here, on WN, to find a story written from the first person's point of view. It should be added that the author sticks to this formula quite well. His main character has his traumas, but who doesn't? The author meticulously builds the world he created from the beginning. The plot is intriguing. Well done! Happy new year!

Overall, the chapter structure is quite neat and organized. It was a pleasant experience for me as a reader. Additionally, the story is quite detailed, and I find myself learning a lot while reading it. Every character didn't have much exposure, but I guess that is how this webnovel is taking its path with the main character as the focus of everything. Or perhaps it is because it is a first-person type story? I don't know, but it is still an enjoyable read for me despite the moderate pace.

The first chapter was pretty much flawless, so good job on that in terms of Grammer and punctuation. It establishes the mc's personality greatly, showing his goal, ambition, drive, and rhyme, reason, everything. It showed multiple forms of conflict and comedy, and also showed a ton of world building as well as mystery. It flowed smoothly and read like a full on professional novel. Good job author, this is one of the greatest first chaps I have seen.

You know, I gotta give the writer their props. They know how to write a story. I’ve genuinely enjoyed this novel. I haven’t been on this app long, but I have been on it long enough to know that there are a lot of books like this. That being said this one stands out because it’s not afraid to be unique. At least not in a way that confuses the audience/readers. I can’t how many time I’ve laughed out loud reading this novel. I’ve had genuine reading it. I think it’s a great recommendation. Good job author!!

Oh man what a banger! If you can get through the large info dumps at the beginning you’re in for one helluva amazing kingdom builder novel right here! The MC is an excellent breath of fresh air and while he definitely acts like a snobby Royal at times it’s honestly done PERFECTLY!!! His background and history are intriguing and compelling as he searches for the shroud of mystery surrounding his parents and I’m hoping eventually becoming strong enough to regain his path to the throne over his younger brother. I cannot wait for the next chapters! Amazing novel Author-San!!!

The novel itself is great and it's very unique and the way that the author writes is amazing and I haven't seen any grammar mistakes from the chapters I have read. The way that the author shows the emotion of the characters are great and the details shown in the novel is great as well and I really enjoyed it especially because it's fantasy. So all in all it's a great novel and if your checking it out you should definitely give this a read if you have time.
