This is a very politics focused plot. I've seen people complain that this story drags in parts and they're not wrong but I find that most of the chapters people find slow or boring are just more focused on politics, revenge planning, or characters that are less popular. There are moments related to romance where the fl is pretty obtuse when she's usually very observant of other people. There's a little bit of Mary sue-ism, allies love Iris immensely and instantly, enemies only motivation is how jealous they are of her, there is no problem that can't be solved with a quick Google and ... her team of absolute experts in everything from information gathering to engineering. But why would you be reading an isekai revenge fantasy if you weren't at least used to that, right?

I loved the world building in this ESPECIALLY the established role of previous Isekai'd Koreans. "Unleashers" being known and integrated make for a fascinating world with such an interesting mix of magic and science.
The structure of the noble class is also very interesting. The emperor is an actual emperor in charge of multiple kingdoms and the nobles have vassals to support them. It's fun and interesting that the different noble titles actually have meaning instead of just being "who's more important (who's the most eligible bachelor)"


Spoilers/trigger warning:
The final revenge is very medieval, they did not pull punches. I found it very satisfying but it may disturb more sensitive readers.
