Possessing memories of being born, raised, and died in a country called Japan… the young boy Hercule was born in the imperial household of a declining empire. This empire that once was a superpower that reigned over the world… is now a country nearing its end.
The public finances are on bankruptcy, the military strength declined to the point that barbarians are able to wreak havoc on their territories and the neighboring countries squeezed the Empire for tribute payments every year. And the young Hercule is forced to take over this empire!
Thus, the 12-year-old Hercule ascends to the throne. Using the knowledge from his previous life, Hercule struggles to rebuild the empire… reforming the tax system, revolutionizing the industry, reorganizing the public finances, rebuilding the administration, and reforming the military system.
This will later be known as the story of the young emperor who restored the Lemurian empire, which would later carve its name in history as the great monarch of the three continents, the “Divine Light Emperor” Hercule the First.
After reading 19.2 chapters and finding that the manga has ended (chopped short rather fast but cleanly), found it to be an above average story that was worthy of reading for a chunk of time. In saying that, it was very easy to see where it was going wrong. For instance, the plot had a very Roman Empire and Julius Caesar feel. The next issue was that the enemies where so dumb that they did not even seem to use abilities that the mc knew, like magic, spirits or divine (common world knowledge but was never used against him ever). Not only that the chapters where very heavy in dialogue, so the manga slowed down in pace a lot. The single track of romance for the mc was a nice touch but again shifted and changed a lot, as if everything just fell into line like the rest of it (going from being able to dominate him mentally in all ways to just being a brainless monkey and letting him take all the commanding moves). The biggest fail in this, is that the manga’s big fight scenes that where to hold suspense and thrills came out to be a bump in the road that was not even worth noticing. If you combine that with the slow pace of the manga, made that suspense and thrill little bump, flattened with a steam roller so you did not even notice it. Still was a nice read.
