==========
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
