The game is like Rise of Kingdom mixed with Story of Seasons (Harvestmoon) or any other simulated game. Instead of building a farm your building an empire. MC is focused on maxing out the affection/friendship meter of the NPCs while still grinding.

Good explanation! The relationship building is basically the same as those dating sim/relationship building sim games(doesn' have to be exclusive to farming sim but it's a staple in the gaming genre)
This would be my exact type of game to play but i'd probably get btfo'd by constant invasions lol. I'm not exactly strategic in mind tl begin with, i'd have to rely on the duke to make political and war related decisions.

The story arcs are getting repetitive. Also he says that it's his job........ but does he really earn money? It's like his always in the red or close to being broke I know that it might come off as cliche when Mcs in this type of webtoons would buy a mansion, car, etc., do things that improves his and his family's living condition but isn't it kinda the point??
Maybe it's just the asian in me talking

feels like he is only receiving money throught donations, because his company only gives him items lololol buuut he did told us how his brother is doing physical rehab and now the surgery and how he is buying stuff for them... he just spent money in more items so thats why he is always in the red? lololol
I pray that someone would translate the novel.
