    Honestly a bit to fast pace for my liking but I enjoyed it so far. The MC is a bit to op but I hope that is fixed and he slows down. After all even woth a noble backing you there is such thing in danger with to much success. Over all I recommend it to eveyone to give a shot.

    The premise of this story is that an engineer uses his modern knowledge to improve his lot in life and those around him.  It much to quickly devolves from that, turning him into some sort of perfect knowledge savant in all areas including war.The first few story points are solid, and he catches the attention of a quarry owner and is able to use his civil engineering to solve an aqueduct problem.Instead of focusing on the execution that will take months to accomplish, it is instead effectively completed in the background as the MC supposedly gave them a perfect plan.  The author could have done a whole arc on solving engineering problems with his design as it meets the real world, but instead it’s just done perfectly and named in the MC’s honor.Afterwards it begins to devolve into MC leading battles and taking command of men.  He starts arguing with a general in front of Marcus Aurelius, and since he’s the always correct MC of course Caesar agrees with him.
