The Author’s Paradox
The center of the universe. The undisputed victor. The one who ultimately wins hearts and undoes enemies with a triumphant smile. That is the role of the protagonist. And all in their orbit are merely supporting characters in the epic that is their life.
As for me?
I was just a writer, whose words seldom echoed beyond the silence of my own mind. And when they did, it was in the form of a novel – my sole outcry in the vastness of literary oblivion. Until the day the thread of my life snapped… and in the blink of an eye, I was reborn.
Inside my own work.
With clenched fist and resolute soul, I faced the new reality. Reincarnating into one's own story seems promising, right? To be the immortal hero, the aura of invincibility, the inevitable romances. Except no. The plot twisted and I returned not as the hero, but as an extra – an NPC in the affable terminology of gaming.
Away from the spotlight, on the fringes of adventures and loves, I am just a figure that completes the backdrop for others to shine. And honestly? What a relief!
Why, you might ask, do I not wish to be the chosen one?
Simple – protagonists are magnets for mishaps. Living on the edge of calamity? No, thank you. Death and I have already crossed paths; dramatic pretexts can keep their distance.
Thus, I summon to the heavens my heartfelt thanks for this second anonymous chance. “Let me enjoy a stable life away from the limelight,” I plead fervently among tears of joy and resigned smiles.
Yet, stifle that laughter. Know that these words, uttered in the innocence of a fresh start, would soon prove to be the prelude to an involuntary comedy. Because, it seems, even an extra can find themselves face to face with destiny.
And so begins the most unexpected of journeys – one where the smallest of pawns may, somehow, change the game.
I'm literally a newbie in this area. But I'll do my best to make it work. [img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend]

Not hating and I've only read the first chapter. Is this AI writing? The description is very similar to The Author's POV so I wondered if it is.
Bro taught his english teacher how to english.

Honestly, this novel has surprised me, the MC has his humor that is very good, the author's vocabulary is very good and the little mystery that the MC has is good, also the descriptions, fights and secondary characters are very well done. In summary, it is a good work with potential, Author, if you continue uploading 1 cap per day or more, you will definitely do well.
the novel itself is at the beginning so i can't give a detailed review but some key things about it are the writing style which is unique and similar to the old books I'm forced to read for school, now this unique writing style is something i like but i think most people will dislike it it's a hit or miss, there are not many evident at least grammatical errors but the conversations between characters feels strange and stiff( it's a weird feeling which I'm not knowledgeable enough to explain) .Anyway the overall novel is pretty good but it's going to be a hit or miss for most people
The story is pretty good worth giving it a read
Is this novel competing in WSA 2024? Please reply.
I haven't read too far but from what I have read I would give the novel a 3/5. The descriptions are unique but somewhat exaggerated. The dialogue honestly disappointed me. With the level that the author was presenting through his other descriptions I was expecting more sophisticated dialogue but you are knew so I understand. Im exited for what this can become if the author develops through his experience!
the narrative is hard to understand but the flow was good but it still same different story that every novel has but "sarcasm" in the writing .For me it hard to understand the narrative and sarcasm as I am not native English speaker
Very good novel. Writing quality is very good. If you're a ESL reader then I'd recommend against reading it. The novel is filled to the brim with figurative language, and sarcasm. All goes to suggest that if you're reading web novels, for the sheer action and clean thrill, then don't read this novel. However, if you're a reader who appreciates the satirical nature of writing, then enjoy. I've read many satirical essays and literary works composed in the 1800s, and I can say that this is more enjoyable read than all the essays prescribing self reliance and fundamentalism. Stability of updates, I have nothing to discuss. Last chapter has been almost a week, so, where he at dawg. World background, is honestly not bad. It's another one of those rinse and repeat, with a standard, academy, system and a bunch of mystical skills, with an author transmigrating to their own novel. There's not really a twist, but hey, sometimes even unoriginal works can be outstanding. Character design is a bit questionable. All of the side characters/main protagonist have their own clear defined personalities. Chloe is different though, because her characteristics is an unclear imitation of the mc's, which I don't think should be the case. I'm not arguing against the author's intention with the character, but I'm not a fan of it. The progression is the weakest of all 5 elements, in which, I feel the arcs are moving too fast. It's obvious that the author is able to extend a chapter by two fold when the mc's inner monologues, but the fact that the author is in an academy, then working as a bodyguard, with the whole class unaware is his disappearance, is just a bit peculiar. There also should be more training montages. Is he a lazy bum? because unlike all the other characters who have a designed combat prowess, he relies solely on his one skill, with his swordsmanship, suddenly honing itself out of blue.
