I already know how it feels to be a worker in 2023. I would want to try being King out of pure curiosity. Plus I played a fair bit of Crusader Kings ...so maybe it wont be that hard. Plus I could bring some fun practices from the future. Such as the wearing of cat ears. My kingdom shall be known for the custom of wearing cat ears.

The hottest person in the Middle Ages is a 10/10 and it's me, the King, and I will literally have you decapitated if you suggest otherwise

Despite the lack of gaming PCs and hot people, I think I would rather be a king in the Middle Ages, solely because I wouldn't have to go to work anymore

So I'd pick king
