Chrono: The Rise of the Extra

After finishing the final chapter of the most frustrating web novel he had ever read, he couldn’t help but complain. The protagonist was overpowered. Every villain conveniently lost their intelligence whenever the hero appeared. And the countless background characters? They existed for only one purpose—to die and make the hero look better. Extras. Disposable characters with meaningless deaths. But that night, something heard his complaints. A mysterious voice in the void offered him a simple question: "If you dislike the story so much… would you like to change it?" When he opened his eyes again, the world was no longer his own. He had awakened inside the very novel he once mocked—Leon’s Odyssey. But he wasn’t the protagonist. He had become Chrono, a nameless extra who was never meant to matter… and who was destined to die early in the story. Now trapped inside the world of Eldoria Nexus Academy, surrounded by powerful heirs, future heroes, and dangerous conspiracies, Chrono possesses one advantage no one else has: He knows the entire story. He knows which characters will rise. Which betrayals will happen. Which disasters will destroy entire kingdoms. But there’s a problem. The moment Chrono begins to interfere with the story… the future starts to change. And the more the timeline shifts, the more dangerous the world becomes. Because the protagonist isn’t the only one who can grow stronger. And in a story that was never meant to revolve around him— An extra might just become the greatest anomaly of them all.
