K, so you know the trope, protagonist gets reincarnated into a world where magic exist, but technology is still backward for some reason, and the protagonist uses his knowledge of science to develop and finally become the king.
What's the twist? Well, I want to include these two points
1. Protagonist is just a farmer.
2. He doesn't possess any system of any sort to guide him.
Simple, right? Well, the first problem is the first point.
Every book I have read where the MC has knowledge of science includes him bieng a noble who has enough money to support his experiments. I have yet to find one where the MC is a peasant and has knowledge of science.
The ones that do have him bieng a peasant from start include a system which guides him throughout. Or he has knowledge of future events.
So, well. Firstly, if you know any work which satisfy these conditions, do reccomend them since I need to get 'inspired' from them.
Secondly, well. How would you have a farmer go and overthrow the current king? The setting is that general public is satisfied with current king but some rebel groups exist. I am thinking of going with the religious route, MC claims he is son of God, king is evil, blah blah blah.
Unfortunately, I do need to fill out those blah blah blah.
Okay, an update here.
Yes, I will study history. No need to mention that ever again.
No, MC is not magically charismatic, or a professional hypnosis.
No, I will not make the king and nobles needlessly corrupt.
You know what, leave the characters alone for a moment. Any suggestions about existing superstitions? Or whether this would be an information war or an physical war? Civil war or assassination of king?
Just let your imagination go wild anywhere other than referring to history and changing MC's personality. You don't even need to think of life span. MC can live for a 1000 or a million years. All I need is to write a line for that. Let your imagination fly anywhere than picking an article from wikipedia about farmer uprisings.
I am accepting all ideas till they do not refer to me studying history.
