A Reforged World (NO SV, You are King of Italy, in a Greatly Changed World)

Reader mode
You know what PhD stands for, don't you?

Piled Higher and Deeper.

I also met a few people like that (I'm just an engineer, so obviously inferior to a Doctor and I should just acquiesce to whatever my obvious superior is stating, however stupid). Usually their attitude does not last long (I like to think I know what I am talking about and the intelligent ones realise it), or I just ignore them and don't work with them anymore.

And about being a mechanic, I've met mechanics - called mechanical technicians in my field - to whom I always listen and would not dream of contradicting in their field without a VERY good and convincing reason. These guys know what they are talking about and were WAY more experienced than me. I don't care about diploma; the only times I had to correct what they were saying is when they did not have all the information and I learned a lot from them.

@Magoose My friend, if I did not enjoy your writing and get inspired by it, I would not have spend literally hundreds of hours writing omakes for your various quests, nor would I be spamming the message thread with dozens of writing ideas and getting way too far ahead of myself for my own good.

are you sure? Or is some random genius Frenchperson gonna pop out of nowhere when France seems like it's gonna loose the war and it's position as a major power. French history is full of those.

I mean we killed them before he could do that so…

Really it depends on if France gets lucky enough in Germany to force a peace before Italy and Spain can come up and ram a boot up its ass

And I don't go and do retcons on your successes.

Only on the context.

are we really sure about that? Assiniation in this day and age is notoriously unreliable. Also the dude was hyped about as much as fucking Napoleon so for all we know we offed some other guy and he's alive. Which is not helped by the fact that it was so anti-climatic. It's getting my senses blaring about sus

I'd be honest with you but the fact that it was so anti-climatic just makes me paranoid that he's alive, final confirmation would be good.

Edit: And that not accounting for other people who could if not stop, than attest or stall the rot within France
Edit 2: If I read everything right, than Richelieu is not born yet. Thank god for that
