Well, from the title 'the lazy lord masters the sword web novel', it could be a story where the main character, the lord, is initially lazy. However, due to certain events like an attack on his land or a quest for power, he is forced to pick up the sword. He then discovers he has a natural aptitude for it or he learns through various trials and errors. It could also involve other characters like his mentors, rivals, or friends who either help or hinder his journey to master the sword.
One of the main themes is self - improvement. Despite being 'lazy', the lord gradually masters the sword, which shows his journey of getting better at something. Another theme is probably power and how it can be obtained and used. The sword - mastering gives the lord power in the story.
You can try some popular web novel platforms like Webnovel or Royal Road. They often have a wide variety of novels, and there's a chance this one is there.
I don't know if it's popular. However, the idea of a lazy lord mastering the sword in the novel is a novelty. It might attract readers who are tired of the typical hero archetypes. The character's laziness can act as a hindrance as well as a strength in his journey to master the sword. This internal struggle between his natural inclination to be lazy and his need to master the sword can add depth to the story. It could also make for some great character - driven plotlines, where the reader is rooting for the lord to overcome his laziness and achieve sword - mastery.
I'm not familiar with this 'the lazy lord masters the sword novel'. You could try to find some reviews or summaries on book - related websites, which might give you a better understanding of its plot.
One similar novel could be 'The Reluctant Hero's Swordsmanship'. In this novel, the main character is also reluctant to take on the traditional heroic role but has to master swordsmanship for various reasons. Another one might be 'The Unlikely Swordsman', where the protagonist is an unlikely candidate for sword - mastery, just like the lazy lord in your mentioned novel.
Well, 'Goblin Slayer' might be considered similar. It has a lot of action with swords as the main weapon for fighting against goblins and other monsters. The main character in 'Goblin Slayer' is quite different from the 'lazy lord' in your mentioned novel, but the sword - fighting and fantasy world aspects are common. Also, 'The Irregular at Magic High School' has some fight scenes where swords or sword - like magic tools are used, and it has an interesting plot with a main character who is powerful in his own way, just like the lazy lord in a sense.
