Extra who isn’t actually an extra

Have you ever wondered how it is to live inside a novel?

Get stronger with some system and cheat abilities. Beat all the villains, and get as many women and wealth as you want?

Well guess what? I am currently in a novel ta daaa…..

I even have already read it before sounds exciting right?

You see...there is just this small problem.

…..

EVERYONE DIED IN TEN FREAKING YEARS!!!

Within azure city in a small lower class apartment, a teenager could be seen lying inside a bathtub.

"Sigh.. I guess I really am doomed"

Getting out from the bathtub, I took a towel and checked my new face reflected in the mirror

"well at least I got a handsome face"

Dark jet black hair with dark reddish eyes, a face that only appears in movies or anime.

" but how the hell did I even get here in the first place?"

I was a casual college student who was doing fine in his studies and even worked a decent part-time job. Even though I didn't have parents, my uncle was a very generous man.

In a normal day, I was driving back home with my bike after finishing all the lectures. However, unfortunately truck-kun was as merciless as ever. Well it was not a truck but a Van. Still both are huge.

For now I possess the body of an 18 years old orphan student with the name Arthur riverblood. it has been already a week by now, and still… I can't believe it.

It all started from the novel that was left by a customer in the restaurant that I used to work at. At first I was curious as the cover looked pretty expensive and quite detailed, and then without even noticing it I read the whole book.

And that was the start of my novels addiction, I read many other novels but none of them were even close to that one.

The novel wasn't anything new, but actually a pretty milked agenda which is about a hero fighting evil. However, the craziest thing about the novel were the character development and the plots, specially the ending…..

Of all novels I was in the worst one possible [ Hero within the Darkness]. It was a typical story about a hero with a system trying his best to save the world. Unfortunately for him, the satanic author made his life a hell hole. Most of the readers made complaints about how he ended it and also down rated it in the website.

The reason how I know that I was inside that novel is because of this.

' muttering in low voice'

"Status"

A weird transparent panel appeared floating before my eyes.

———————[Status window]———————-

Race: Human

Name: Arthur Riverblood

Rank: F

planet: Earth
...…
Strength: F

Mana: E

Dexterity: F

Stamina: E

Luck: D
...…
Skills: None

Martial arts: None

Talents: None
...…

The exact same panel as the one in the novel

"of all characters I got this weak trash, just what the hell was he wasting his time on?"

His overall stats were considered quite average compared to people his age in the humans domain, but still he was trash over all as F rank is the weakest rank…. Well…. At least he wasn't an unawakened.

" F rank…..… How did he even got accepted?"

Nothing can be changed now, I am not sure who and why would I be sent here? I tried asking in multiple ways , but there were no answers no matter how many times I tried.

" looks like it will be a month from now "

The panel was not the only reason but only a confirmation. I have checked the phone of this guy and found that I was already registered as an academy student in the magical academy where the main lead started their journey.

I have no parents in this world nor anyone I know. From what I understood, this body just recently left the orphanage after he got accepted in the magical academy.

I don't know what to do or what would happen if I die again, but I'm not going to risk it, so my first priority for now is to protect myself from this dangerous world.

" ughh.. just what have I done… "

'While agonizing about my situation' I checked the apartment that I was currently at.

Every drawer, corner, box or even below furniture…

"..."

Poor, he had just a minuscule amount of bronze and silver coins….

( The currency in the novel was like this: 1 bronze coin is almost like 50 cents, 1 silver is 10 bronze coins, 1 gold coin is 10 silvers)

" Sigh… why didn't I reborn in some rich family…."

In the novel, one of the main powerhouses were the elite families. Each elite family had sovereignty over their lands, but are not fully independent. They are obliged to protect the commoners in their lands. Also, each elite family head had either an SS rank or a peak S ranker. That wasn't all. They had many artifacts as well as a huge amount of MONEY.

" I need to make many plans regarding the future"

First, Who sent me? Was it the goddess of the novel known as goddess of light ' Sia' ? If that's the case then why? I wasn't some smart general or a brave fighter in my world…

All my worries were about my education and physical health. I didn't do some crazy things so why me of all people?

Secondly, what should I do with the main lead… should I try to help them? But why? Honestly, I don't care about this world. Even in my previous world I could do some changes that helped the environment, but I didn't care….

" Still 10 years….. this is as bad as being diagnosed with grade three cancer"

First and before anything… I need power. I'm too weak to worry about anyone, so I need to gather as much power as possible before the second invasion of demons start.

" Already, I'm getting headache…."

I just hope that nothing goes wrong….wait….was that a bad omen?….

It is not…. Right?
