The Extra Who Wasn’t Meant to Be Born

"Mike" died alone, a man who trusted no one... and opened his eyes as a boy who wasn't supposed to exist. In his past life, he was a wolf in a concrete jungle—a street fighter forged by blood and betrayal until he believed in nothing but the weight of his own fists. But the explosion that tore his body apart wasn't the end; it was a gateway for his "soul" to return to its forgotten home... in a catastrophic manner. He awoke trapped in the body of "Arthur Gray," a nameless orphan in a world ruled by Mana, monsters, and the laws of a "Video Game" whose plot Mike believes has spiraled completely off course. To him, he is merely an "Extra"—a background character trying to survive a mad script. But the truth is deeper, and far more terrifying, than a mere world-hop. Arthur is not just a side character... and Mike is not just a passing soul. They are two shards of a single soul, shattered by an ancient curse and a bloody conspiracy born on a planet that perished under the weight of "The Abyss." A royal soul forcibly split into four fragments; two have now collided within one body, while the other shards still pulse in unknown corners, awaiting the moment of a terrifying completion. As Arthur fights to survive using the cunning of the streets in a world he deems "illusory," he finds himself hunted by very real shadows: • The curse of the "Fallen King" who crossed into the Forbidden Lands and returned as something no longer human. • High entities and master manipulators who view Arthur’s body as the "Perfect Vessel" to resurrect an ancient lord. * A strange past flowing through his veins, seeking the "Key" Arthur was born with—the very key that caused the destruction of entire worlds. Armed with the instincts of a merciless killer and the remnants of a broken prince’s pride, Arthur will tear the "Script of Fate" to shreds. In this game of death, the player without a name is the only one bold enough to write the ending. "When the shards unite... the picture will become clear. They will realize this world isn't a game... it is a prison for something that should have stayed dead."
