The Extra is a Hero?

Samar, a middle-aged top-ranked gamer, is reincarnated into his favorite game, "The Worlds of Hunter," as an extra character. He finds himself in the esteemed Arcade Academy, a place where heirs of powerful empires, clans, and guilds train to become heroes. However, Michael Willson, as he is now known, retains his memories of the game. Instead of aiming for the protagonist's role, Michael's sole focus is survival and carving out his own destiny. Possessing an intimate knowledge of every trial and hidden danger within the game, Michael skillfully navigates the brutal Survival Trial, outmaneuvering monsters and rival cadets alike. His actions, driven by his foresight, begin to alter expected outcomes, saving lives and claiming victories meant for others. As the trial concludes, his unexpected prowess attracts attention, making him a subject of speculation among the academy's elite students. Michael Willson is no longer an unnoticed extra; he is an unknown variable poised to rewrite Arcadia's story.
