An Unwanted and Unwilling Hero

"AN UNWANTED AND UNWILLING HERO" started as a web novel and can be described as a reaction against the concept of selfless heroes that I have never really adhered to.
Despite the character origins and the high fantasy setting, the main character is rather grounded. I wanted to be someone the readers could see themselves becoming in a similar situation, rather than an ideal to aspire to. He isn't a nice person.

Light spoiler ahead:
Different world, different rules.
Laev, as the main character will get to name himself, is definitely not a normal person - he has inhuman powers but due to his amnesia and the feelings he inherited from his mysterious past, his mindset is definitely no one of a hero. In the beginning, the hero only cares about his survival, but he will come to value his wife and dependents.
He is not a grand hero, he only cares about himself and the few around him. Using a wealth of modern knowledge scientific, historical and political - he will do whatever it takes to ensure a bright future for himself, including saving the world.

The story follows the interaction of a modern-minded character in an unfamiliar feudal setting. The truth of his origin and his reason for being in this world are only settled at the very end. Despite the open-ended finale, the main character gets a proper ending to his arc, which can also be considered a good end for the m.c and his affiliates.
