Ngl, but I'm really happy how the story presents itself thus far.
1. Despite having a strong country, the MC has it far from easy with his group or in the new world.
2. Wrong decision making leads to severe consequences that cannot be undone nor can their impact be significantly reduced.
3. MC himself is very limited in his own actions.
I feel like this is quite a change of fresh air. If I think of Kingdom/Nation Isekai, I think of Overlord and Tensei Slime Shitara Datte Ken first. They are the most popular and they definitely do a lot of good writing I enjoy. However, I can't help but feel, that solutions to problems sometimes come in to "easy" or to "quickly". Both Overlords and Slime MC are powerful on their own, with powerful ressources, abilities and 100% loyal powerful subordinates.
This story MC may have a strong country, but he still has to lead them like a king. He cannot let them act completely independently (thus far) and he is so vulnerable. Just the fact that we saw him die in the last chapters to his own rebellious subordinates says it all. The death was luckily just taking one of his few lives, but it shows he cannot allow it to happen again and that his most trusted servants were careless. He isn't perfect nor his powerful subordinates. We see the pinch he is getting himself here in this chapter. Returns without being capable of thinking of the worst case or how to deal in a "almost perfect" manner.
MC is not incompetent, but he isn't seemingly omnipotent like Rimuru or Ainz. Thats what I like. He has room for development and his action thus far weren't stupid. Just insufficient and in need of more thorough experience.
