In that great kingdom… In Greisis kingdom, there’s a king despised by his retainers, tyrant nobles, corrupt officials, and so on… It’s in a precarious situation.

For the sake of protecting his father and family, as well as helping the citizens, the reincarnated Prince Herscherik is determined to fight.

Making use of his skill as an office clerk in the past, being full of initiative in his nature along with his (otaku-ish) intellect, the reincarnated prince faces many kinds of incidents.

        I found the chapter from Isecai! Perhaps the current link above is simply broken.

      As you could tell by how long it took for me to reply to you, but I’ve been very busy due to irl issues. Even if you could fund me, work and life probably wouldn’t give me any time to translate. Don’t worry. I’m still working on the chapters, just slower than usual

        A proofreader is someone who checks for grammar and spelling mistakes, making sure that the chapter is sound before it gets published.
