The Extra's Rise

Fate is a script, and Arthur Nightingale is a typo. Transported into *Saga of the Divine Swordsman*, he awakens not as the hero, the villain, or even a side character—but as an extra. A nobody lost in the shadow of Lucifer Windward, the protagonist destined to ascend beyond gods. But Arthur knows the truth no one else does: this world is doomed. The plot is collapsing toward catastrophe, and the so-called geniuses won’t survive. Armed with forbidden knowledge and a will to rewrite his own fate, Arthur refuses to fade into the background. He’ll defy the story itself—or die trying.
