Yoo Junghyuk's eyes wandered to the centre stage of a massive auditorium, where someone was stepping up—Kim Suho, the number one cadet. He could also be called the protagonist of this era.
Junhyuk gave soft sigh, "What a terrible life." He muttered to himself.
He was originally a 20 something year old man from Earth, he had a fascination with webnovels reading many throughout his time.
He was poor, well he grew up poor. He crawled through the gutters of that harsh world, enduring insults and the lot to reach where he was.
His father once had a saying, In the jungles, there was only one animal that came around once a generation—The White Tiger. That is what I should strive to be, the one in the millions.
Which he did. He did it to the best of his abilities, and crawled out from the dregs that society called poverty.
He soon married, and had a wife, their life was a simple, unremarkable and ordinary, one that he enjoyed. His wife was faithful, and they had a few good memories.
But it all changed when he brought his best friend—Tyrone over. While their marriage was a bit shaky, due to the fact that they hadn't any spontaneous trips or anything as he was focusing on his work, and also silently dealing with depression. He didn't expect it to be that rocky.
His wife soon hung around with his friend more and more, she laughed at his jokes harder, hugged him for longer moment. Things that were quite unremarkable.
But then that dreaded day came.
On a stormy night, his phone buzzed—a call from Tyrone. He didn't know why, but his heart tightened ever so softly looking at the screen as if his body was aware of what was conspiring.
Tyrone quickly explained, his wife was making ever so slightly moves on him—that Tyrone didn't refuse. He wanted to see what it would lead too, to see if his best friends wife was a cheating whore.
After a few months, she finally made her move. While dropping Tyrone too his apartment, she gave him a soft kiss, which he didn't refuse, wanting too see what it would lead too.
The kiss soon evolved into full blown rough sex. And well, Tyrone knew that they soon divorce. So he didn't refuse the cheap sex.
Seeing the texts Tyrone sent, his heart started beating harder and harder, as he felt faint of heart. He refused to believe it, trying to delude himself that his friend was pulling a fast one.
But a video soon arrived, which crashed his entire world.
"Sorry for the cheating whore of a wife, cuh." Tyrone sent over.
Almost immediately, the door to his house opened as his tipsy and shamefully dressed wife entered the house.
She gave a flimsy excuse of a girls night out. For a moment, he couldn't believe that his wife thought that he was such an idiot to believe her lies.
He tossed his phone over to the cheating slut of his wife before quickly exiting his home, the excuses his wife made out was drowned out as he walked mindlessly.
The rain dropped heavily, as he enjoyed a small smoke, something that helped him cope during the tough times before violently coughing.
"Damn lung cancer." He muttered to himself.
While he wasn't a chain smoker, he still smoked quite often, and the violent coughs that were following him from a few weeks did not help in the slightest.
But that small cough, distracted him from focusing as he wandered to the middle of the road.
Instantly the flashing lights of a large vehicle filled his sight as he couldn't help but mutter, "Isekai?"
Oh how wrong he was.
He survived the accident, with a lot of broken bones and head injuries, but he survived nonetheless.
It took months to recover, but just as he felt he could get his life back in order again, the lights of another vehicle filled his sight—his cheating bitch of a wife decided to kill him due to the fact that they had signed a prenup and if they divorced she wouldn't get a single cent.
Yet again, he thought that he'd transmigrate or reincarnate like all those fantasy novels depicted.
But reality was cruel, he survived, even more damaged than before, the accident turning him paraplagic.
Slowly he recovered, he preserved, his wife went to prison after he divorced her. It took a long while to rein in his life, he also experienced a new spark of love with a barista he met.
Just as they were about to marry, his lung cancer decided it was time to act. That it had to join in the fun to ruin his life.
Respiratory failure, after everything, it was cigarettes that took him.
But the second he died, he woke up inside the world of a novel he had once read years back—The Novels Extra.
To be honest, the entire novel was a blur, it had been years after all. He remembered something about a transmigrating author, a museum of sort, a Demon King or something. Well a Demon King was a norm in stories like these and also Chae Nayun's older brother—he wouldn't forget her plotlines, she was his favourite character.
But other than that, everything else was hazy.
God his life sucked. If the universe decided to crown the person who had the worst life and give another chance to them, he probably wouldn't get it because that's how much his life sucked.
Honestly, he felt that if God somehow took a shit and hurled it across the vast universe. Out of everywhere, it would probably head towards him and strike him at lightspeed, killing him. While everyone else surrounding him remained unhurt.
"Jesus Christ, I hate my life. Whoever reincarnated me, why did you do it? Did you want to enjoy watching me struggle? Did you want to see my lose everything as I perservered to save this world? Or was it some other sick fantasy. Does watching me struggle in agony stroke your cock?
"Well sorry to disappoint you, but I give up. Yes, I give up. I'm just going to sit back, relax, hope nothing kills me and let the real main characters resolve the issues here.
"Did you think I'd play along? Then you're mistaken, I'm not going to be your puppet. You can kill me however you want due to my defiance, but honestly…I don't care. I don't care if this world goes to shit, I don't care if everyone dies.
"So do your worst, I've already experienced hell. Whatever you're going to do will not compare to what I've endured. I hope you enjoy my uninteresting and boring life." Junghyuk mused to himself.
