A Background Character’s Path to Power

Waking up in an unfamiliar world with no memories, I had only one advantage, a mind filled with knowledge of fictional tropes, clichés, and common sense learned from countless novels. At first, I thought I was trapped in a romcom nightmare when I started triggering events like "Helping a Girl on a Rainy Day", "Damsel in Distress", and "Tripping Into the Heroine’s Arms." Naturally, I shut those nonsense down before they could escalate. No forced romances. No misunderstandings. No cringe. But something was clearly off. The world wasn’t just a slice-of-life comedy. Beneath the cliché academy setting, there were whispers of awakening powers, hidden dangers, and a brutal magic academy entrance exam. And every challenge I prevented or manipulated was an opportunity to grow stronger. [Title Earned: Background Character.] [Achievement Unlocked: Firm Mind.] [New Skill Acquired: Background Character's Aura.] [New Ability Acquired: Anti-Narrative Influence.] I may be just a background character, but if fate insists on throwing these events at me, I’ll turn them into stepping stones. Let the protagonists play their scripted roles — I have my own path to power.

Reincarnated in an Otome game as a background character

Razel, is a reincarnated youth. In his previous life he was a lonely boy who spent his days playing video games. Then one day tragedy came into his life. It all ended for him, was what he thought, until he opened his eyes; to find a fantasy world, where science and magic go hand in hand. That could have been a joy, but that happiness was nipped in the bud, because he reincarnated as the eldest son of a poor family of barons without territory, and, above all, he is uglier than in his previous life. His tragic new life doesn't end there, as he woke up in the last video game he played. An otome game. But not just any otome game, it is one with an RPG theme so it is made up of strong and dangerous enemies. He will have to live his new life as a background character and help from the shadows to the capture objectives and the protagonist to avoid the end of the world and especially, the cruel villainess.

No One Knows That the Background Character Is the Strongest

Arata Kurogane was nothing more than a faceless side character—at least, in this new world. Born into a prestigious clan famed for their mastery of Circuits, the natural meridians that grant humans power over fire, lightning, illusions, and even time itself, Arata’s body was branded talentless and left behind in the shadows of his brilliant siblings. But fate had other plans. When his soul from another world awakens within this forgotten vessel, Arata discovers two terrifying truths: 1. His left eye circuit, when awakened, can paralyze, torment, and even extinguish life itself. 2. His soul circuit allows him to manifest anything he imagines—so long as it makes sense. To the world, he remains a background figure. To himself, he knows the truth: he is limitless. While heroes clash for fame and villains rise to destroy kingdoms, Arata has no interest in playing their game. He will walk the path of a “shadow,” quietly building his strength, rewriting the rules of reality itself, and crushing those foolish enough to stand in his way. Because no one—not his clan, not the empire, not even the gods—will realize… The background character is the strongest of them all.

Reborn as a Background Baby in a Novel I Hate

Death by Truck-kun? Too mainstream. I died choking on my own laughter during a late-night comedy rerun. Pathetic? Yes. Fitting for someone who gave up on life halfway through university and became a full-time couch potato? Also yes. When I opened my eyes again, I wasn’t in the afterlife—or if I was, it had a suspicious amount of baby talk and clean diapers. I was reincarnated... as an infant. No powers. No memories of my new name. Just chubby cheeks and existential dread. But the real horror? I slowly realized I was now living inside one of those cliché romance novels I absolutely despised. You know the type: cold-hearted king meets brave commoner girl, falls in love, political chaos ensues, blah blah gag me with a spoon. I read it. I hated it. And now? I think I’m in it. And not as the heroine. Or the villain. Or even the funny sidekick. No—I'm just some background baby who probably gets held once, then vanishes from the plot forever. With no grand destiny, no cheat skills, and no idea what chapter we’re on, I’ve decided to do the only thing I was ever good at—absolutely nothing. But fate has a funny way of dragging the lazy into the spotlight… They think I’m innocent. I think this whole thing is a joke. Let's see who breaks first.

Translation quality ay medyo makunat, taglish pero di maiiwasan yon, sa narrative ay medyo cringey dahil sa Tagalog. Pakiramdam mo nagbabasa ka ng Noli me tangere o El filibusterismo. Di masama pero thankless effort into Mula sa kababayan kong translator dahil Yung mga kababayan natin, sa tingin ko English and pipiliin nila.

the ninth pass

It was a bizarre world where modern technology and spells coexisted. Humans and demons coexisted. Cultivators ruled everything and looked down on all living beings from above. It seemed to be full of vitality and glory, but in reality, the eight gates had collapsed, the heavens had fallen, and all the immortals had fallen! I, alone with my blade, stood at the ninth stage.
