In a novel, who's the most pitiful exitance? One would say the Hero, others would say the Villain. Many would also say it's the mobs. But rarely would ever say it's the Second lead. However, Horas Spencer would beg to differ. An ordinary man before, he gets reborn into a 5-year-old body of the second main lead of a novel he wrote a long time ago. The only catch? He's not only the protagonist's brother but also the Second main lead. Now the only one who knows the truth of this new world he had been reborn in, Horas Spencer has one goal in mind - to make sure he interacts as little with the main story as possible. But to escape the fate of being the Second Main Lead is not easy and the challenges that Horas would have to face are many. Not to mention, find a way back to his real world where he had a decent life and family waiting for him. For that to happen, he would play various roles, even that of a Villain. Just as long as he could go home in one piece. However, the mystery of this new world might be tougher to crack than Horas first expected it to be. And the shadow of being the 'Second best' is not easy to overcome. ////////////////////// There will be late romance, it will be dark and a lot of world building. ////////////////////// Cover not mine.

If you have to guess what existence is the worst in a book, many would answer it is the villain who has to do all kinds of unimaginable bad things to survive.
However, some would say it is the Hero or the Heroine who suffers the consequences of the plot. Then what about the mobs who are the punching bags of the story? Indeed they are just as pitiful.
But even among these existences, there exists one person who no one thinks of as pitiful at first glance - the second lead. The existence of such a person is made for the Hero of the story and his life often revolves around the main character.
Yes, they are often given ridiculous powers and are often the key point of the novel, but in the end, their existence does not amount to anything much but a rival.
Maybe that was why, when I reincarnated into this world, I made a vow. Whatever happens, I will remain away from the main plot of the story. The only thing I needed to do was to survive until this story came to an end.
But would it be possible with the kind of fate I have been dealt with? After all, the protagonist is none other than my half-brother. Looking at the small and shivering body in my arm, my first thought was - this is all real.
I, an average man of the 21st century had been transmigrated into the plot of a novel I played before. My new name is - Horas Spencer, elder brother to the hero of this novel Howard Spencer.
And my biggest dilemma is that I am currently 5 years old with a newborn in my arms. And of course, just like any good protagonist, as soon as my younger brother was born, our parents died.
Yay for my new life.
