Steel Foundations asks the question: What if a 16th-century German knight was thrust into a world of magic, gods, and monsters, forced to navigate the unknown while mourning the loss of everything he once knew?
Leon Jäger, a stoic and unyielding knight, lives by a simple code: repay kindness with a river of ambrosia, and slights with total destruction. When an unexplainable force pulls him into a foreign world where magic flows and monsters roam, his creed will be tested like never before.
Struggling to comprehend powers beyond his imagination, Leon must master the mystical art of Qi cultivation while hiding his abilities from those who might exploit them. As he maneuvers through this strange land of gods, magic, and Cultivation, Leon must not only survive but carve out his place—without losing himself in the process.
Steel Foundations blends the epic drama of Western fantasy with the intricate philosophy of Chinese cultivation, wrapped in the fast-paced thrills of LitRPG. Swords, sorcery, and mystical forces converge in this unique isekai adventure, where Eastern tradition meets a knight's resolve.

The further i got down the story the worse it got sadly, the MC just gets it all with minimal effort.
His Armor is the only real armor in the that i have heard till the end of the second book, everyone else just wears paper armor.
He gets better weapons, More attribute points, more affinity with the Elements, more Money and learn skills that no one in the world other than him has just like that.
It just got so bad that i could already predict what comes next as soon as he meets someone that has something that would be an incredible game changing thing.
as of the end of the Second book i can only recommend it if u Enjoy an Really OP Mc that doesnt struggles too much and goes trough life on EZ mode with lots of OH HA moments.
Sorry english is not my mothers tongue.

That is what it is meant to be, and it does it well enough.
The narrator is exceptionally good and elevates the whole thing.
The protagonist is an emotionally shunted/'stoically closed-off' manly man man character who wins any fight and unlocks new powers exactly when he needs them, much to the amazement of any other characters in the scene.
Antagonists usually are male and either boy~ish and bratty, fat/ugly and lecherous, or a combination of these. Any who are not usually are either friends-to-be or 'honorably' fight to the death.
If this wasn't obviously meant as an escapism story, then I'd find more issues with it, but it's pretty obvious that it's not meant to be taken too seriously.
I'd rate this:
'Greasy, tasty fast food' out of 10
Stoic, Manly Mary Sue beats Everyone
