The person whom the world revolves around.

The person who defeats all of his opponents, and ultimately gets the beautiful girl.

The sole existence all villains fear.

That is the protagonist.

What about me?

As a failed author who had only one success throughout his whole career, I had reincarnated into my late novel.

«This is it»

I thought, as I tightly clenched my fist.

Did I just get reincarnated in my own novel?

Is this where I reincarnate in a novel and become the protagonist?

No.

Sadly it’s not that kind of novel, as I reincarnated as a mob.

The world doesn’t revolve around me.

The girls don’t come flocking towards me.

The cheat items don’t come to me.

«Phew»

I let out a sigh of relief.

«Thank god I’m not the protagonist»

I joyfully shouted as tears streamed down my cheeks.

Wait, are you curious as to why I don’t want to be the protagonist?

I did forget to mention the most important thing when I was describing a protagonist.

That is…

They are calamity magnets.

I just died. If I learned something from that, it’s that it really isn’t a pleasant experience.

If possible let me live a long stable life.

Thank you, whoever reincarnated me.

I would later come to regret these words…

Reader Disclaimer:

There are two MCs in this story.
1. The original MC of the novel
2. The author that transmigrates in the novel
In the beginning, the author plays the role of an extra with no ambition other than quietly waiting for the story to end. He is almost like a babysitter that watches over the plotline, however, this will only be in the first 40 chapters or so as he will soon be dragged into the plotline regardless of how much he doesn’t want to.

The MC may come off as someone that has no ambition in the beginning but as the story progresses it will change

Also, there may be a bit of info-dumping at the beginning of the novel (at least the first 30 chapters), but there shouldn’t be anymore in the following chapters. Well…being a new author I may end up doing it again. If I do so please do criticize me and scold me. If you don’t scold me how am I supposed to improve the story? What’s great about writing web novels is that I actually can hear your advice and opinions. You are just as much invested in this story as I am, so please help me out.

Well…I would appreciate it if you don’t leave a one star…not that I can stop you

Also, yes, the novel is inspired by TNE (The novel’s extra) you may see a lot of similarities in the beginning, but for future chapters the differences will start to become more apparent. I hope you manage to stick through it. Also, don’t come reading this expecting it to be another TNE. In fact don’t compare the two. If you do, the flaws of this book will become more apparent as you read ruining the whole experience Collapse

    Does anyone notice author overuses words like,

    - After all
    - Soon after
    - As soon as

    It's like every other sentence is started using them even when it's not necessary.

      Haven't seen any of those words being used in the latest chapters. Maybe in the beginnig when author was still polishing his writing skills?

    I CANT FInD It ughh, anyways for those that are not the author, I commented how you should gtfo of WN and how RR is infinitely better, he responded, and now my response with less context to other people, I mean you already have the contract with WN so not much to do about it, however just a note to make it more probable to not in your next novels, the Webnovel contract is literally illegal in the EU and in some other countries, mainly from the clause wherein the split of money comes in, goes something like "author will receive 50% of all earnings minus advertisement fees" It's problematic since how much ads they churn out or how much they think it's worth and valued is all up to them, now It's too long oh no F me sorry to the rest. Oh ya also before I end, it's also pretty nice to actual own your novel at the end of the day, ok bye now for real.

      I don't know much. But I do know Author of the Primal Hunter managed to make enough within only a year. And he's living in EU.

      So yea that's why I think Author might be interested in getting in touch with him. Because I heard he also learn this from other experienced Authors.

      Well to be fair, he did have a really good novel going for him, so that's also a PLUS to make that within one year, possible.

      In WN, only the top 15 gets the contract and make enough, but I believe it's over 3k$/month or potentially doubles that. I don't know the exact number.

        Primal hunter is written by Zog, he's easy to get a hold of if you want to talk to him on his discord. He makes his money via patreon, not ads. His book is hosted on Royal Roads.

        He's a good bloke, and has written long guides to help new authors out explaining all that he's learned, what parts of it was luck, what parts were repeatable, and just the general process. Technically helping out his competition with solid advice.

        All for free. Dude is an A+ class act on being a good human being.

        I mean yea ofc you still make money in WN, but its incomparible to RR money, Zog is at 10k a month from patreon I think, and if he gets into KU that's gonna be six digits a month. And btw it was from Zog that I found out how garbage WN contracts are.

    My interest is dying after following this novel since ch 100-ish

    I have another novel replacing this as my Top 1 and I think I'm gonna stack this one. There's no more, "Oh. I wonder what's gonna happen to this, or that?" Right now MC's skill is like, he'll be stronger but it'll again be a *click* and move on.

    This is still a great novel. But I think it's peeked. Unless MC actually loses--for once-- or important people die, important here are not the girls or MC's parents; they can die a dog's death and it won't affect the firepower. Important characters are all the males and the teachers. (Don't u notice that? during fights, the girls only fight mobs, bigger mobs but still mobs.)

    MC, Kevin, Jin, Donna, Monica, (Angelica).

    Make Anglica get spotted. Or Kevin suffer major damage (totally unexpected). Donna or Monica Killed (I prefer Donna, audience has more bond w/ her). Or something happened to MC. Like the book -- have Everblood come over and burn the book and make the future prediction stop. Raise the stake, higher the bar, make a loss feel like an actual loss.

    Replace it with a buff for the girls, give them a glow-up. Their power level is so small they seem like bigger ants. (But don't give it right now, the team is already super positive they seem invincible.)

    The story right now is walking on layers and layers of safety nets. It's been a long time since MC is in an actual threat of death. Like during Angelica's fight -- that's the best fight so far, imo -- where we are put in a place where, "Oh shit, I wonder what he's gonna do."

    It's fine if we know MC's gonna win. But don't make it obvious to the point, "Ah. This will be over in a *click* because this villain has no build-up." (#°Д°)

    What Author needs right now is to introduce villains, tons, and tons of villains. To the point where it lurks everywhere and MC has no arc in peace. Or Author might as well add a slice of life to the tag (¬_¬ )

    I hope Author see this, "Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, mate. And I wish you the best for the year ahead. Cheers." \( ̄︶ ̄*\))

      First time here in a while.
      Anyhow, this is very fair criticism. But I'll just say one thing.
      All this peaceful stuff happening right now is on purpose. (so are the items he is getting and everything. Be it Monolith ring, mask, watch, poison...)
      Everything that is currently being given to him is a long set up for the next arc, which will happen after the tournament.
      ...and well.
      Let's just say that, s*it will hit the fan real hard. There will be no peace for quite a while after this.
      I won't say any spoilers, but, I do recommend you to stockpile. Because there will be a lot of cliffs. (why? Cus i've mastered it's dao and I shall naturally exploit it)
      Anyhow, it's gonna be a gruesome arc. (At least that's what I'd like to think it will be)
      P.S. I love tyranny of steel too. So good.

          I write a little sci-fi, got no issue with Ranobes posting the chapters up here. The book's free to read anyhow, so folks here are kind of helping me out by posting for me.

          Other authors don't like that their work is being hosted somewhere they have no control over, like moderation. And others are more legally bound - like if they tried to go on amazon, they are required to make sure the story is taken down everywhere, or else amazon will pull their earnings and basically paddle them for something they don't have control over.

          And then you got some authors on my boat that don't see anything wrong with it. I'm just happy other people that would have never known about my fic get a chance to read it. ^^

        LMAO cheerful Trust me, I'm well aware of that one. I never once doubt your Dao. For I was hanged by it, every day, for breakfast of which it lasted for months on end. Thus, I can confidently say this, "I have seen Thee, and Thou art enough. To know, God made Thee as good as Thou art beautiful. " bowbowbow #Entrail_JI#
        P.S. I love tyranny of steel too. So good.
        Ohh... This is a surprising find... then, I'll end this with "GOD WITH US!" wiseacre
        and really looking forward to the GRUESOME ARC thrill

    Um yeah, I don't like this at all. MC is very wishy-washy with ever changing goals and personality. I know the author said in the description that it was similar to novels extra, it has only gotten more similar since chapter 40. MC is an actual idiot, always doing stupid stuff and even starting to get involved with the protagonists.

      Try reading till chapter 70.
      If you don't like the development then, than its just not for you. But usually, from 55-70 is where the novel truly picks up. (It's where the novel's charm truly starts)
      P.S. i'm not the guy who disliked your comment.

      this novel gets 5000+ clicks per chapter lately. What in the world gave you the genius idea that this is botted?
      Just because you don't like something doesn't mean others will share the same opinion as you.
      Or is anything you don't like that is liked botted?
      What kind of way of thinking is this? It's as though you think the world revolves around your opinion, which surprise surprise, it doesn't.
