The Extra Can't be A Hero
Number 23 had it all.
A warrior of unmatched power, a Transcendent capable of annihilating armies single-handedly, he was revered as a god among men. He seemed to have everything with wealth, fame, and influence at his fingertips. Yet beneath his cold, ruthless exterior lay an unfulfilled yearning—an elusive desire he couldn’t quite grasp...
He wanted to be a hero.
Despite his monumental achievements, Number 23’s quest for heroism remained unfulfilled. His life took an unexpected turn when he discovered a book titled [Bright]—a bestselling epic depicting a true hero's journey. Enchanted by its tale, Number 23 became obsessed, devouring every word in search of the heroism he craved. But his journey was cut short when he fell victim to a deadly ambush orchestrated by rival Transcendents, leading to his untimely execution.
In his final moments, a single regret lingered in his mind.
"I never got to see the ending of [Bright]..."
As if answering his unspoken wish, Number 23 was reborn into the world of Bright—not as its celebrated protagonist or a key figure, but as an insignificant extra. Stripped of his former identity, he now inhabited the role of Amon Solaris, a character barely noticed in the grand tapestry of the story.
Undeterred by his diminished status, Amon Solaris is determined to learn what it truly means to be a hero. But in this new world, he’s about to encounter a revelation that will change everything he thought he knew…

I've been waiting for a new book from the author, i recommend everyone to give it a read his novels are pretty good
Excellent novel! I really love the world-building and the richness of the characters, although I feel that something is missing to make them even more vivid. Moreover, the relationship between the Mc and the Fl is a bit too cold for my taste, but you can gradually sense a warming that fits in with the development of the MC , who is becoming more and more human. I’m hoping for a bit more development on the romance side (more development for Yue) and for the other characters as well. Otherwise, I would like to congratulate the author on this remarkable work. I look forward to the next chapters with great anticipation.
I’ve been reading this book for a while now, and I’m loving it! The writing style is so quite good and each chapter has a certain depth that feels perfect. The character development is also quite good and and it’s been great seeing how they grow and change along the way. Just waiting for the romance to unfold. It’s one of those books that stays on your mind after you finish a chapter. It will definitely become one to the top books on the platform only if it gets some attention.
One of the best novels i’ve read in a long time. Please release more chapters its amazing
So Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

love this book jus wish it had more chapters weekly
One of the best novels i read on this app if im being honest easily in the top 10. I enjoy everything about it including the fight scenes and the world building and each chapter got me wanting more I highly recommend it. It would be better if he updated more frequently but the chapters are of good length and have a nice writing style.
Sorry for my English, but I love reading so much that even a translator doesn't bother me. Not bad writing style. Well-developed world-building. The author is focused. Now for the bad parts of the work. The first chapters do not ‘demonstrate’ the protagonist, do not ‘show’ his philosophy, but simply TELL. This is boring and unrepresentative, so the protagonist remains a flat character. After the rebirth, 10 years pass and everything we were told about the hero in the previous chapters is flushed down the toilet. The human weapon can smile because of his sister. This is a case where it is better to see once than hear 100 times, because all the demonstration in the previous chapters simply becomes irrelevant. The plot hardly develops at all; we are endlessly told about the protagonist's family, future disasters, and the lore of the world, but nothing interesting happens. Okay, the regressor is quite an interesting twist, but after the demonstration, this card looks like one big spoiler... (The protagonist has not read the entire novel, so the unknown awaits him, but a spoiler girl comes along and tells him everything. Where there could have been an interesting twist, there is a spoiler). The romantic component is extremely weak. The relationship has already happened, the heroine says everything directly and, in short, it's boring. And there was a hint of ambiguity in the situation. Maybe she decided to use the protagonist? The ambiguity would make us suspicious of the girl's actions. However, the chapters that follow make everything clear: the girl has no plans and is truly enamoured with the protagonist. I was still hoping that the protagonist would strive to become stronger. He would have skill, but no magic. However, he comes to the dragon, and the dragon blesses the protagonist without any trials. In short, where there could have been an interesting conflict, there is nothing, and where there could have been an interesting mystery, there is one continuous spoiler. Where there should have been hard work, the protagonist gets everything easily. I don't even hope that there will be any personal development here, any transition from weapon to human. Because from the first chapters, the author has shown that he does not know how to portray a character, his psychological state, and build plausible internal conflicts. The author knows how to write, but he is terrible at everything else that makes a work interesting.
it's been a while since I read this novel and it was quite good. At that time there's was like 95 chapters and I read them all but I didn't continue after that because the update was so slow that I'm afraid that author might drop it and it's very annoying to wait for days for a single chapter to get updated. Well regardless it was very nice until where I stopped and I hope the author would at least update 1 chapter a day 🙏

I love this novel, the beginning of it reminded me of a Korean novel I read a while ago . Back to this story. To start, I've only read about 25 chapters, so I'll just give my first impressions. First of all, the author's writing style is very enjoyable to read, the characters' interpretations and inner thoughts bring the character to life, plus it's only the beginning of the story so it's very promising. The lore of this story is quite interesting. Back to the character, I have to say that I'm not a big fan of the main character but I know he's going to have a big development so that's not a problem. Plus that doesn't mean I don't like him. And as a big fan of romance, I hope to have a huge development of this part (and please no harem thank you). As a small flaw I could say that 4 updates per week is perhaps too little for some but I must say that as long as it is qualitative we can be satisfied with it. To summarize I have not read many chapters but I am already taken by this story and I think it has very good potential. I can't wait to see the rest. good work author
Honestly glad I found this story , it’s for sure a hidden gem on here . I hope this one is in for the long haul and gets updated more frequently
