My plan for survival was simple: play the part of a beloved but utterly incompetent lord. I wanted everyone to like me, but no one to take me seriously. Unfortunately, my incompetence has been mistaken for genius. “My Lord’s wisdom is beyond our grasp! Please, allow me to handle these trivial matters.” “I live and die by your command, my Lord!” “They dare threaten the paradise our Lord has built? Slay them all!” “For the glory of our Lord, we will make him Emperor!” Somehow, my attempt at a quiet life is about to start a continental war.
