Volume 1
After thirty-five years of perfectly ordinary life, a run-of-the-mill businessman suddenly drops dead...only to be reborn in another world! Now he must live as Ars Louvent, scion of a minor noble family and wielder of a fabulous skill: Appraisal, the power to perceive the strengths and abilities of others at a glance.
He'll need it, too, because there are plenty of problems to solve in the Louvent family's territory! Ars only has one choice: recruit the most talented individuals his skill can find, and rise up to new heights in his brand new world!

Volume 2
Ars Louvent isn’t just the heir of a petty barony—he’s also a reincarnated Japanese office worker! He isn’t a fighter, and he doesn’t know the first thing about his new world, but he does have one advantage that’s crucial for anyone who hopes to get by as a lord. Namely, an unprecedented eye for talent, granted to him by his special skill: Appraisal!
Thanks to that skill—and to his lack of consideration for his prospective retainers’ ages and origins—Ars has managed to gather up a formidable team of talented followers. Unfortunately, the empire he lives in is teetering on the brink of civil war. To make matters worse, the cornerstone of House Louvent and Ars’s father, Raven, has passed away at the worst possible moment! Ars has no choice but to take up his father’s mantle, make full use of his retainers’ talents, and protect and expand his territory as war rages around him, lest he lose everything he holds dear!

Volume 3
Ars Louvent, the young Baron of Lamberg, has a secret: he’s a reincarnated Japanese office worker! Though mediocre at best in the fields of swordplay and strategy, Ars has one thing that gives him a major leg up on his fellow nobles: a skill called Appraisal, which he uses to see past the biases and preconceptions of his peers and gather up a host of capable followers!
All is not well in his new home of Lamberg, however. Missian, the duchy Ars’s barony lies within, has been plunged into a war of succession, and circumstances have prompted Ars to join forces with Couran, the elder of two brothers vying for the position of duke. Like it or not, Ars is about to find him and his followers playing a pivotal role in battles the likes of which he’s never imagined!

Volume 4
Ars Louvent, current lord of a backwater barony and former Japanese businessman, hasn't been reincarnated into the easiest of circumstances. He's not much of a strategist and certainly isn't a fighter, but he does have one trick up his sleeve: a skill called Appraisal, which he uses to gather a host of capable retainers from all walks of life to aid and protect him! At the command of the Count of Canarre, Ars and his retainers join a war of succession between two brothers feuding for the right to rule the entire Duchy of Missian. So great are his achievements over the course of the war that Ars soon finds himself receiving a promotion beyond his wildest imagination: he will become the new Count of Canarre! Now it's up to Ars to remedy all the political and economic woes that Canarre is plagued with...but before he's had time to even get started another conflict begins to brew, and this time much closer to home! A crisis is looming large, and only with the combined power of Appraisal and his talented retainers will Ars be able to stop it!

Volume 5
Ars Louvent, petty lord and former Japanese businessman, hasn’t been reincarnated into the easiest of circumstances. He’s not much of a strategist and certainly isn’t a fighter, but he does have one trick up his sleeve: a skill called Appraisal, which he uses to gather a host of capable retainers from all walks of life to aid and protect him! After successfully fending off a massive invasion of his territory, Ars has two objectives: clean up the mess left in the war’s aftermath and find even more talented individuals to bring to his side! There’s nobody who Ars won’t consider as a potential retainer—not even former foes—but when he meets a mysterious trio with a seemingly colorful history, he might just find his most unlikely allies yet. Who could they be, and what influence will they have on Ars and his rapidly-growing county?
