/ Fantasy / The Extra's Transcension

เรื่องย่อ
For as long as he could remember, life had always been cruel.
A young man in his early twenties—his name now lost to the past—was dealt a life filled with misfortunes.
A cold, empty apartment, a soul-crushing job, and, finally, a terminal diagnosis.
With nothing left to live for, his only comfort had been escaping into the fictional world of Path of the Elemental Sage, a story of heroes, magic, and survival.
But fate had other plans.
When death finally came for him, he didn’t fade into nothingness.
Instead, he awoke in the world he had only read about—a world of chaos and danger where death lurked around every corner.
The air smelled of magic, the sky was filled with possibilities.

[Name: Lyrium Blackwood]
[Age: 16]
[Rank: D-]
[Skills: None]
[Elements: None}
At first, confusion filled his mind.
Who was Lyrium Blackwood?
Why was he here?
And why did this body feel so different?
But as his memories returned, so did the realization: this wasn’t some blessing or second chance.
He wasn’t reincarnated as the protagonist.
No destined savior.
No cheat abilities.
No grand fate.
He was just another mob, a face in the crowd meant to exist and die without leaving a mark.
But this young man—the one who had left his old name and life behind—wasn’t the kind of person to roll over and accept his fate.
“This world is dangerous. The protagonist isn’t the only one fighting for survival here,”
he muttered, his red eyes deep and sharp.
Unlike the naïve characters in the story, he knew the stakes.
He’d read the web novel.
He’d seen the carnage, the betrayals, the disasters that wiped out entire cities.
And if there was one thing he refused to be, it was a pawn in someone else’s game.
“I don’t care about glory. I don’t care about saving the world. All I care about is surviving—no matter what it takes.”
Lyrium Blackwood wasn’t planning to live quietly or avoid danger.
The only way to survive in this brutal world was to rise to the top.
To be strong enough to stand above both heroes and villains.
Using his knowledge of the story’s events and his iron will, Lyrium sets out on a relentless path to surpass the protagonist.
Whether through clever manipulation, brutal training, or sheer desperation, he’ll climb higher and higher, leaving nothing to chance.
But the deeper he gets, the more he realizes that this isn’t just the story he once read.
As fate pushes him closer to the heart of the narrative, Lyrium begins to suspect that his reincarnation wasn’t an accident—and the world itself might be watching him.
“I don’t care who or what stands in my way. If the story wants to kill me, I’ll rewrite the ending myself.”

เขียนรีวิวIf you’re expecting a well-thought-out story that makes sense, then you’ve come to the wrong place. As usual, this book suffers from amateur writer syndrome, where the author comes up with a good story idea but fails to consider details beyond the plot they have in mind. They try to incorporate multiple ideas from anime and good books, ultimately oversaturating the story. Sometimes, a simple, well-written beginning is better than a flashy but poorly thought-out one. As a reader, the first few chapters are the key factors in deciding whether I will continue with a story, and this book lost most of my interest from Chapter 1. I read about four chapters, and here are some of the glaring nonsensical issues I noticed: 1. The MC initially didn’t know his mother, but the moment he learns her name, he suddenly acts as if he remembers everything. A more strategic approach would have been to continue pretending to have amnesia and gather more information about the world from his family. 2. The cause of the coma was never explained, and no one even seems to care. It just happened because the plot needed it. 3. The first thing the MC’s mother does after checking on her son is ask if he received confirmation about getting into the academy. Seriously, what are your priorities, woman? Your son just came out of a coma. 4. This concerned and loving mother then decides to leave her formerly comatose and slightly amnesiac son all alone because she has an important meeting. Their family is rich—she could have at least left him with a servant, a family member, or a family friend. 5. The MC randomly decides to complain about the how the protagonist gets everything and he got nothing . Is the first thing you do when you get transmigrated really to obsess over being the protagonist? How narrow-minded can you be? 6. For some unexplained reason, the MC has an obsession with joining the main plot. 7. The MC goes to the black market and, for some reason, is suddenly an expert in weapons. He then randomly decides to buy a rusted sword just because it looks cool or interesting (wow, talk about dumb clichés). 8. The MC appears to have no skills or elemental power, yet these things are sold like groceries in the black market. So why has his multi-billionaire, loving mother never thought about buying something like this for her son? (Don’t you dare tell me she doesn’t know these things exist. No one becomes rich and influential without gaining knowledge.) So did his mother just want her son to be mediocre? Don’t say she didn’t care—she literally handed him billions without batting an eye. All in all, I just hate books that underestimate the reader’s IQ, and this book is a prime example of that. Just saying—almost all good books have a concise and well-thought-out beginning. I won’t be continuing this book, but for the readers who are sticking with it, I hope the writing logic improves.
It’s quite good, so keep it up like this. I can see a lot of potential in this novel.[img=gift][img=update][img=update]
The most frustrating thing is mc's charm like hell...His sister and mother are beautiful and he's got their features and YET he is average? call me when his CHARM surpassed the og mc and I'll pick it up[img=angry]
it's quite good, some of the first chapters has spelling mistakes, but the new chapter has everything, you're improving keep up the great work, also, the world building has improved:)
"정교하게 빚어진 명작" 이 소설은 매력적인 스토리텔링과 몰입감 넘치는 세계관, 그리고 탄탄한 캐릭터들이 어우러진 진정한 예술 작품입니다. 우아하면서도 강렬한 문체는 자연스럽게 흐르며, 모든 장면을 생생하게 만들어 줍니다. 전개는 탁월하게 조율되어 있어 액션, 감정, 긴장감이 완벽한 균형을 이룹니다. 모든 디테일이 치밀하게 구성되어 있으며, 독자를 압도하지 않으면서도 이야기의 깊이를 더욱 풍성하게 만듭니다. 풍부한 분위기와 강렬한 서사를 갖춘 이 작품은 뛰어난 스토리텔링과 몰입감 있는 세계관을 좋아하는 독자들에게 꼭 추천하고 싶은 소설입니다.
if you shut your brain off it'll be a good story but when you notice how some of this stuff makes zero sense it jus kills your mood. 1. the power scaling is legit horrible like he didnt even think anything out. for some strange reason they are B ranks and in additon to that B ranks in this novel are like S ranks in others also this ranking system goes into like XX which isnt bad but the only reason they go that far is because the author is adamant about having B rank charachters also the mc reaches the novel mc's level reltivley quick and gets a affinity really quick as well and also has two systems that say the same thing so why cant he just have had his orignal system merge with the new system? 2. For some strange reason they fight proffesers which wouldnt be bad but the author uses this chance to introduce other charachters. Its not bad to use cliches cus theres a reason they use them. For example the entrence exam cliche " First Years do tests, fight each other or fight second years that are lower ranking" because obviously this academy wants to see how they do to the lower ranking former first years why would they if the proffesers are XX rank they wouldnt need to fight the students themselves to see how good they are. 3. He introduces so much charachters so quick and doesnt really even introudce someone fully first he jus dashes and goes to the next person. 4. He jus gets power ups for no reason???? He gets the cliche no emotion skill fine, but also is out cold for a week where apperntly no one inclduing his very loving mother doesnt contact him at all?? they are super super rich so why doesnt she have somsone watching him why would this rich family leave their son alone and with no body guards it makes no sense. Also has the cliche average mc but his whole family is very attractive so how is he the only average one. I'll keep reading but i doubt ill spend money on this i personally think the author should rewrite this novel and fix the pwer scaling and some of the plot holes as well
