A decorated Air Force pilot, 34 years old, meets an untimely demise—only to awaken in a war-torn fantasy medieval world. Now inhabiting the body of Mechal, the second son of a baron, he finds himself recovering from a near-fatal injury orchestrated by his own elder brother. But while the old Mechal might have been consumed by reckless fury, the new Mechal is different—calculating, patient, and ready to play the long game.

When a rebellion unexpectedly shakes the kingdom, Mechal seizes the opportunity to carve his place in history. With a sharp mind, battlefield tactics, and an understanding of human nature, he navigates the treacherous world of nobility, rising from an overlooked second son to a powerful force. Through cunning strategy and ruthless ambition, he secures victories, earns a title, and claims land of his own—laying the foundation for a rule unlike any other.

But the world of nobility is a den of vipers. Political intrigue, backstabbing aristocrats, kingdom-wide conflicts, and the ever-present shadow of war loom over him. As he builds his domain, he must outmaneuver rivals, forge alliances, and solidify his power—because in this world, only the strong survive.

Inspired by the noble struggles of the Holy Roman Empire, this story weaves war, politics, trade, and ambition into a gripping tale of power and strategy. Watch as an upstart reshapes the fate of a kingdom, one calculated move at a time.

Each magic crossbow required 50 mana stones, one mage, and five soldiers to operate. While it lacked the raw firepower of a magic cannon, it was easier to handle and allowed for greater flexibility in targeting angles. To optimize their use, the forces divided management of the crossbows between the left and right flanks.

Magic cannons, on the other hand, were far rarer artifacts. Each shot consumed 500 mana stones and required two mages and fifteen soldiers to operate. They were massive and immensely powerful. A direct hit from a magic cannon could obliterate even a first-class magical beast in a single blow. However, their drawbacks were significant.

For instance, a magic cannon might be incapable of keeping up with the flight speed of someone like Marcus or even Miaomiao. Moreover, stealth attacks were nearly impossible; the process of a magic cannon charging its mana was so conspicuous that it could be spotted from over a kilometer away.
