Samar, middle age man also a top rank gamer  find him self reincarnated in his favorite game as an extra character
The Game That he Played of Eight year, The Worlds of Hunter .

Arcade Academy trains the heirs of empires, clans, and guilds to become the next generation of heroes.
But Michael Willson is different. With memories of this world as a game, he isn’t here to play the protagonist’s role — he’s here to survive, outsmart fate, and carve a place of his own.

When every trial twists under his hidden knowledge, rivals begin to whisper his name. Is he ally, enemy… or the greatest threat Arcade has ever seen? 
Even it means to take the place of the Hero!
--------------------
In a world where strength determines destiny, youths across kingdoms and clans dream of entering Arcadia Academy, the greatest institute for hunters, knights, and magi. It is here that the heirs of noble houses, royal bloodlines, and guild legacies gather to hone their talents — and claim supremacy over the future.

But for Michael Willson, things are different. Once a nameless outsider with no family or backing, he possesses only one weapon: knowledge. By a twist of fate, Michael has memories of Arcadia not as a student… but as a game. Every trial, every event, every hidden danger — he knows them all. And he intends to use this knowledge not to play the hero, but to survive.

Thrown into the brutal Survival Trial, Michael faces monsters, rival cadets, and even death itself. While the world sees a ruthless tactician who outpaces prodigies from the mightiest families, Michael only sees ticking clocks and looming disasters. His choices ripple beyond expectation: saving people he was never meant to, stealing victories meant for others, and twisting the threads of fate that once belonged to Arcadia’s destined protagonists.

Now, as the trial ends and the cadets march toward the Academy’s grand halls, alliances begin to form and rivalries sharpen. Leon Lionheart, heir of justice. Selena Veylan, royal shadow. Edric William, the arrogant scion of the strongest family. And countless others.

Yet in every glance, every whisper, one truth becomes clearer:
Michael Willson is no mere background character. He is the variable, the shadow, the one unseen by fate’s design.

Arcadia is about to begin.
And Michael will rewrite the story.

The thunder of voices had softened now, settling into a restless murmur. The clerk rolled up one parchment, readying the next. A pause hung in the Grand Hall like a held breath.


Emily Lionheart hadn't moved from her place on the dais. Her presence was composed, her hand resting lightly at her side as though she stood in no great hall but in her own home.


Alice Nightveil, however, leaned in slightly toward her. No one else would have noticed is their friendship had always been more silence than noise but Michael, watching from his seat, caught the subtle shift.


Their voices were low, but in the relative lull, Michael's ears caught fragments.


"Emily," Alice said, her tone quiet, measured. "You didn't flinch when Magnus's name was called. Not even a twitch."


Emily's lips curved faintly. "Why would I? This isn't the first time someone's tried to Stand in my way ."
