1 Minor Character!

Brumen Kai!

A reincarnator!

Kai, who had ordered a straightforward meal from the menu, sat in the small hotel at the intersection of the street area and waited on the side, looking a little bored. "Big brother Kai, here it is done!" As Kai shook his head and turned to smile at the straightforward character girl—one of the female leads of a story he did not know anything about—a cute teenage girl's voice rang out from the side.

"Good morning, Mai!" Helia Mai was a female lead in this world, even though she had not yet encountered a main character. However, the moment he met her, the system identification panel read "Female Lead."!

Since he knew he would never get the chance to be with her in this world, Kai has been trying to avoid her since that moment. For the same reason, he had to disappear from her life. However, he was unable to accomplish it for some reason, and each time he attempted to, he eventually ran into her again.

'It seems to me that I had a job setting related to her as a mob character. Or else, why would I end up around her all this time? Plus, even God warned me not to act like the main protagonist or else I will loose my little brother.'

When Kai took a bite of the delicious-tasting noodle, his eyes brightened with happiness, even though the thought of that disease made him break out in a cold sweat.

"Oi! What is wrong with this dish?" Suddenly, a high shout attracted Kai's attention, as he found a guy around Mai's age shouting like an idiot at the center of the crowd, and Mai's mother, who was also at the center of the attention, looked really nervous at this point.

[Ding!]

[Quest triggered!]

[Quest Detail: Stop directly getting involved at this commotion.]

[Quest Reward: 80 thousand Sakura!]

[Quest Failure: Erectile dysfunction (Duration: 10 days)]

"Fuck!" When Kai finally starts swearing aloud, the man turns to face him and starts to approach him angrily. As the man approached Kai with a menacing appearance, Mai and her mother's attention were also focused on Kai, who was nearly perspiring. "What did you say, you mother *****! I will kill you, bastard!"

"Eh! Did I get directly involved with her or something? System!" Kai thought inside his mind, and along with that, an electronic reply echoed within his mind.

[Ding!]

[Reply: Host has not crossed the condition since his reason for cursing was system failure condition and hence, the entire event did not cross the system warning line.]

"Thank goodness!" Kai sighed! However, the man who was grabbing Kai's collar became even more enraged after those words left his mouth, punching Kai in the stomach and making him drop to the ground in agony.

"Oi fucker! Do you have a death wish or something?" Kai nearly lost control of his anger due to the sudden attack, utilizing his cold rationality and life experience, almost causing the boy to stumble back in fear.

[Ding!]

[Quest Completed!]

[Quest Reward: 80 thousand Sakura!]

[Transfer completed]

"Brother Kai! Are you alright?" Kai turned to face Mai as he heard her worried voice, just as he felt a gentle hand grab his arm and lift him off the ground. "Kent! I had told you not to cause trouble for me here." The people around Mai appeared to be very irate, and they even directed their enraged stares at Kent, who chuckled in response.

'Wait, this situation and momentum! It seemed a main character is about to enter!' Being a fan of reading webnovels and stuff like this, Kai could feel the sudden changes being directed toward the arrival of some kind of main protagonist.

'There he is.' Looking at the boy, Kai noticed that although he did not stand out in the crowd, his mere presence was drawing attention from Kai and others. It was not so much charisma as it was the person's easygoing demeanor and assured expression as he looked at Wenlis, the boy from Mai's class.

Anyone could tell that the boy did not even bother to look at that Wenlis as he walked toward Mai with slow steps and extended his hand with a small invitation card.

"Miss Mai, I am sorry to come knocking without any further notice, but here! I wanted to call you for the party that I will be holding tonight."

When he handed Mai the card, the boy frowned slightly and turned to face Wenlis. A butler standing next to him saw what his master was planning and moved to take hold of Wenlis shoulder.

"I hope Mr. will keep his distance from my master friend; that is all I would like to ask." The butler's tone was courteous, but it lacked any trace of tact; from Kai's perspective, it sounded more like an order than a request.

"Ugh! Who the hell are you?" The butler's strength and his tone gave Wenlis a sense of threat as he gritted his teeth and turned to look at the boy at the center of attention.

However, they remained silent, with not even the butler attempting to respond to Wenlis. The main character then turned to face Kai, nodding and smiling politely.

"Here! I hope you can also come, Mr. Kai." Being the protagonist and a sharp one at that, the boy knew if he did not invite Kai. He might be targeted by Wenlis for helping Mai before, so he tactfully invited Kai to join the party this night as he left the area with his butler.

"He is a nice guy, huh?" Kai spoke to Mai, who was still standing beside him, and found her nodding with a slight blush on her face. Kai had a little bitter feeling for Mai's attention, but he could only shake his head.

He knew from the start how things would end because the only cheat he has will never help him get in the way of the protagonist, where he can only be a background character in this set-up.

"Thank you, Kai." Mai turned to thank Kai after emerging from her daze, only to discover that he had already left the area. "Kai!" She muttered, feeling a little unsettled for a moment, before her mother called her inside.

"Yes, Mom, I will be there!"

"Wow, that was amazing, right? Who was that guy anyway?"

"How the hell would we know?"

While everyone was talking about the enigmatic boy, Kai walked silently toward his house, where his phone rang with a stiff tone. "80 thousand Sakura has been transferred into the host account; please check your account details to confirm the reward."

The electronic voice rang inside Kai's mind again, and a message appeared on his smartphone screen with the bank account credit increasing by 80 thousand Sakura.

"System, let me clarify something. Is it really impossible for me to gain status similar to that of the main protagonist with your help or not?" After returning to his empty apartment, Kai laid down on his bed and muttered while remembering the smile of Mai when looking at that kid, who appeared to be the main protagonist and acquainted with Mai.

[Yes! It is possible! But our warning toward main act is due to insufficient level of the system.]

"So in short, I cannot disturb the main act of the main protagonist, and beyond that, there is no restriction on how much I can grow out to be."

[Correct!]

Kai came to the realization that there were hidden points that he had overlooked when God had previously warned him. As soon as his deceptive dialogue caught the Wenlis' attention and he became involved in that act, he ended up realizing something.

Since real life is so different from a story, he may be able to use the system to sidestep the story's main scenario and keyframe and, in addition, as a supporting character, increase the favorability of female leads. Recalling that guy's charisma, Kai realized this path would be extremely difficult. After all, as a man, there are things he did not want to lose, not even to the main character of a story.

[Hidden Quest: Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden quest.]

[Hidden Attribute Rewarded: Gentleman]

[Gentleman: All the female character in the world will have favorable opinion of host and will definitely think of your image when need some help.] (Activates after getting acquainted with the host.)

[Attribute: +30 Fp and +120 Ap]

(Fp intels Favorability points and Ap intels Assurity points)

"What the hell?" This was the first time Kai had heard of the Hidden Quest, and the title, "hidden attribute," really caught him off guard. As an old soul from Earth, he knew that this crucial item would be of great assistance to him in overcoming the main character's charisma. However, he had a fantastic opportunity to go meet some female bosses and, if possible, get to know them at the party tonight.

[Quest: Attend the party tonight and get acquainted with 10 female character from famous family of Bluemist city.]

[Reward: 2-star hotel ownership (unknown) will be drawn from Gacha.]

"Wait! Then, if it is alright, just tell me one more thing!" Thinking about it, Kai finally remembered something, and to make sure, he asked a question, though seemingly the system itself was not in favor of telling him, but it still answered Kai's question.

[Supernatural!]

"What is the genre of that main protagonist novel?"

As the sun started to set and the evening was about to dawn on him, Kai took his smartphone and walked out of the apartment. "Kai!" Turning his head, Kai looked at the landlady, who seemed to be waiting for him. "Sorry, but it is already time for the rent. And my husband is also nagging about it." Kai apartment landlady was a kind person who had been very kind to him after the reincarnation.

"Yeah, thank you." Kai was unaware of his family's circumstances because, following his rebirth, he had largely forgotten the details of his previous life. This did cause him some anxiety, but being in a foreign country with strangers was nothing new to his reborn self. As he had experienced plenty of these things in his past life, adaptability was one of his greatest traits in both worlds.

"I will send the amount right now, and sorry for being late, aunt."

"What are you saying? I understand that you have had a difficult life, so do not worry about it. Your uncle will be out tomorrow, so you can also come for breakfast." Although the landlady's husband detested Kai to no end, she frequently invited him over for breakfast while her husband was out for work.

"Yes! Thank you."

Before becoming married and having a child, the landlady was a gyaru-type girl with blonde hair who attracted the attention of men in the community. However, as she grew older, she developed a wonderful presence. This was also the reason her husband ended up this way—having to watch out for all the guys in his immediate vicinity. However, Kai was also aware of this and did not hold the bald man responsible for his misgivings.

"Hmm!" Sending Kai on his way, she smiled as usual. Kai sighed as he thought about how she could also be a major character in this world as she disappeared from view and walked back to her apartment.

'Though she is not!' He pondered as he considered that bald man, who was destined to be a supporting character in every story rather than the main character.

After 4 hours!

It was already nighttime, and Kai was back in his apartment, done wearing the simple dress that he had bought with the money that he got from the system. 'This looks fine.' Observing the toned body with well-defined muscles that exuded an odd aura of strength despite lacking bulky weight or fat in the arms!

'But this fair-looking and toned body is still somewhat attractive as a man.' Kai was not being sarcastic about it, and his new body was really somewhat good-looking, but that is until he is not being compared with the main characters and his foreign friends.

"Let's go!"

"It's party time!"
