Spoiler for The covers of Volume 01-04:
I started reading this after seeing the summaries of the series by zephyr325 on jCafe. It really is a great series, very fun to read and the heroines are great, like in DxD they don't get as embarrased if seen in compromising positions if compared to other series.

This is extremely good. There's no settings such as strong MC + weak girls or weak MC + strong girls here. No annoying X wants to protect Y or what. There are no real girl that you can hate on. This is a novel based on action, strategy, fantasy and romance, though the latter occupies a reasonable place in the novel.
IMO, I like this better than Blade Dance or Dragonar. (P-S: Typo. Madan, not "madam".

I'd add that this LN is incredibly interesting. Zephyr's detailed summaries really make you think about the setting that the author created..
The attention to detail regarding the background histories and ramifications of each persons actions (and political intrigue to boot!) tell me that this is going to be a "must read!" One thing that the story seems to be hinting at, and I hope it follows through with, is that there are many things that personal power alone cannot accomplish. |

Post 1 post in the forum in order to be able to see the spoiler. Go to File Sharing Section, click on Novel Shoppu forum. There are many threads providing RAW LN and some also have summary. RAW manga can be found on Winny Club forum. The thread of this series is in both forums, one of LN, one for manga. The LN thread has spoilers from vol. 1-4 provided by zephyr and whsie on page 1, summary by zephyr for vol. 1-2 on page 2. ^^ I don't think any more explanation is required. But seriously, you even asked what happened in the series in some threads that have less than 10 pages. At least you should try searching for it yourself. It's not like every threads here have 30+ pages you know! |

The only thing that worries me about this series is that this is published in mf bunko. I doesn't want to be prejudiced about a particular publishing ompany since the author is the one that writes the story, but considering a lot of mf bunko novel with interesting premise gets stale after a number of volumes comes out, I can't help but be wary of this.
