As the Vozoran Empire prepares to conquer the last few independent kingdoms left on the continent, Jack is reincarnated as the savior of refugees escaping a pogrom.

After his own arrogance ruined his life, the blacklisted and depressed “Jack” escapes into strategy games, turning around hopeless starts… until he is reincarnated into one.

An engineering and history nerd, he knows how to build a civilization. But can he actually do it when his new people are living in tents, at the brink of starvation and threatened by marauding bandits? Or will his own cockiness and distrust of people doom them all?

Meanwhile, just across the border, a young Princess searches for a way to protect her realm as an ever expanding Empire, bent on conquering the whole continent, creeps closer. When their paths cross, they must find a way to stand together against a behemoth.

If you enjoy the problem-solving grit of The Martian and the world-building depth of Release That Witch, you’ll love A Modern Mind in Medieval Times.

Expect:
• Civilization from scratch → City building → Kingdom building
• A pragmatic, cunning protagonist who wins through strategy and isn’t overly humble.
• Real science and engineering that leads to cool weapons and realpolitik in an evolving narrative.
• A romance that shapes the fate of kingdoms. Realistic poly relationship, not a harem full of faceless girls.
• The ultimate clash: Technology and Progress vs. Tradition and Magic

In Metro City, where huge corporations and flashy superheroes rule the skyline, everyday people are just bystanders in the ongoing battles between heroes and villains.
At the center of this chaotic city is Scott McQueen, an average guy with one big dream: becoming a cool, shadowy antihero.
Scott fantasizes about scaring off criminals while serving justice from the shadows.
But there’s a catch—this world is full of flashy, attention-grabbing superheroes who hog all the spotlight.
One night, everything changes for Scott. He stumbles upon the Harem Streamer System, a strange, almost-living program that offers him a shot at fame.
With this system, Scott can live-stream his nightly antihero activities, gaining views and donations from fans all over the world.
The catch? The more viewers he gets, the more heroines fall for him. Plus, with the growing fanbase, he earns rewards like money and powerful gear, boosting his chances of becoming the hero he’s always wanted to be!

“Bahaha! The whole world is going to bow to me very soon!”

He’s not only wanted by the Hero Agency.
He’s not only wanted by mega-corporations.
He’s not only wanted by enemies he’s destroyed.
He’s also wanted by superheroines!
