Reborn as an Extra

Reborn as an Extra follows Rio, a man who awakens to find himself transported into a novel he recently finished, now inhabiting the body of a minor character. To his surprise, he is now a student at the very same battle academy that serves as the central stage for the novel's main events. Driven by a singular focus on self-interest, Rio declares his intention to seize the protagonist's opportunities, unconcerned with the potential ramifications for the established plot. This story charts Rio's unconventional path as he prioritizes his own desires over the narrative's intended course. The protagonist is portrayed as selfish, driven by personal ambition rather than heroism, and the story explicitly states there is no harem. Readers seeking a justice-oriented protagonist or a narrative that adheres strictly to the original plot with romantic subplots may find this is not their preferred genre.
