Reborn As The Minor Villain In A Romance Fantasy Novel

“I’ve been reborn as the potential man of this world?”
…
Eric Lane was an ordinary man with one extraordinary obsession: To Be The Extra — a webnovel he had followed religiously from its humble Instagram promotion to its global fame, award-winning acclaim, manhwa adaptation, and even an upcoming anime.
It was the story of Cayden Cross, an average gamer who transmigrated into his favorite game as an irrelevant extra, only to shake the world and rewrite its fate.
Eric loved every second of it.
Until he died, he didn’t even know how he died… all he knew was that he died.
When he opens his eyes again, he’s not Eric anymore. He’s Lucius von Hohenberg — a minor villain from To Be The Extra.
The same Lucius who lost everything after being humiliated by Cayden.
The readers understood the man, he had been in a coma for years only to wake up and find out his beloved had been betrothed to the Cayden.
He had tried to fight but like the fate of any character that faced the Main character, they got stomped pretty badly.
Armed with his obsessive knowledge of the novel’s plot, Eric is determined to rewrite Lucius’s fate.
He wants to live a care free life in this world.
But as he soon learns, this world is not a one-to-one copy of the story he read.
The events are different but who cares? He didn’t want to follow the plot anyway.
