Release That Witch is a monumental masterpiece of the "Kingdom Building" and "Isekai" genres, universally celebrated across the global webnovel and manhua communities as the ultimate pioneer of scientific progression fantasy. Adapted from the legendary, massive-scale novel by Er Mu, this series has captured a massive international audience by flawlessly executing the "Kingdom Development" trope with supreme intellectual depth and tactical realism. It is world-renowned for its phenomenal world-building, moving completely away from generic magical power-ups to deliver a gritty, incredibly satisfying saga where modern engineering, thermodynamics, and scientific laws are weaponized to reshape a medieval society. The series stands as a definitive "Industrial Revolution Epic," blending complex political statecraft with high-stakes, apocalyptic warfare.

The story follows Chen Yan, a brilliant modern mechanical engineer who dies from overwork and awakens in the body of Roland Wimbledon, an unprincipled, cast-away prince competing for the throne in a brutal medieval fantasy kingdom. He inherits a backwater, impoverished border town and a massive political target on his back. In this world, the church fiercely hunts down and publicly executes "witches," labeling them as evil, demonic entities. However, with his background in engineering, Roland instantly sees the truth: witches are not monsters, but human beings possessing unique, localized physical and chemical abilities that bypass the laws of thermodynamics. Treating them as the ultimate clean energy source and scientific laboratory team, Roland begins a relentless campaign to rescue every persecuted witch in the land, utilizing their powers to build steam engines, smelt pure steel, manufacture firearms, and spark a full-scale industrial renaissance.
