Synopsis

In a novel, who's the most pitiful exitance? One would say the Hero, others would say the Villain. Many would also say it's the mobs. But rarely would ever say it's the Second lead. However, Horas Spencer would beg to differ.

An ordinary man before, he gets reborn into a 5-year-old body of the second main lead of a novel he wrote a long time ago. The only catch? He's not only the protagonist's brother but also the Second main lead. Now the only one who knows the truth of this new world he had been reborn in, Horas Spencer has one goal in mind - to make sure he interacts as little with the main story as possible.

But to escape the fate of being the Second Main Lead is not easy and the challenges that Horas would have to face are many. Not to mention, find a way back to his real world where he had a decent life and family waiting for him. For that to happen, he would play various roles, even that of a Villain. Just as long as he could go home in one piece.

However, the mystery of this new world might be tougher to crack than Horas first expected it to be. And the shadow of being the 'Second best' is not easy to overcome.

    I dont understand why this has such high reviews. This story leave all intelligence at the door. So the MCs parents die with no relatives or friends willing to look after the kids. Then a creepy sleezbag takes custody of them because he worked for them at one point. MC get dropped of at a school for teenagers and almost dies in the first week. Because sending a 5 year old into a dungeon is a great idea. then goes with obviously creepy and dangerous guy to a mountain for no reason. This story at no point makes sense. Found myself yelling a the screen multiple times. Maybe it gets better, but after 16 chapter it sucked. Don't read its a waste of time.

    I don't understand at all what the rest of you in the reviews are talking about with such high ratings. But for the high ratings, I wouldn't have read this and you guys lied lol. It made me wonder if we read the same novel. The MC is supposed to be an author who ended up in his novel as the 5 year old older brother of the protagonist. The MC doesn't act at all like someone who transmigrated. He barely remembers the plot of the novel but even with the things he remembers, he doesn't use that information for anything. He remembers Jack is a creepy and ambitious person but decides to hand over his brother who's still a baby to him. Jack asks him to come with him to see his brother and tho he knows that Jack is suspicious, he goes with him. Why would you do that when the person's mere gaze makes you shiver and makes you afraid? He ends up getting injured but doesn't tell the adventurer lady that became his guardian. Like bro, what? The MC gets sent to an adventurer academy and is taken to a dungeon THO HES STILL 5! It's not like he has any special abilities or talents; no matter how you look at it, he's just a more mature kid. Yet they sent him there and he almost died. Overall the plot is just too bland.

    The mc is brain-dead, he was seen smart but to be honest, he's actually not. And the mc should have an adult mindset not childish one especially he was reincarnated.

    I am so frustrated, the synopsis was great but rest was utter brain dead trash. Transmigrated for 3 years but still thinks he is in a dream. Intelligence stats shows high but the guy is stupid af. In shout great idea worst execution...

    True rating .2/10, and the .2 is for the synopsis, the best part of the novel.This is absolute Garbage. If i could give it lower than a 1 i would. The premise seems great but the author is a brain dead idiot who canno effectively write. The mc is a five year old using a magic gun so it’s unnecessarily unrealistic and everybody in the novel is an idiot. That makes sense considering a character can only be as smart as its creator. Great idea, worst possible execution. Absolute Trash.

    I'ts bad. I can't understand the 5 star reviews. -name of mc keeps changing. -mc has high intelligence status, but it's a dumbest mf I ever see. -mc is 5y old with no cheat yet is thrown in a dungeon wo any reason. -mc don't remember a single thing from the novel he wrote, not even the freaking skill of major characters. - it's riddled with plotholes. seriously... rich lady in poor orphanage jus because her parents can't take care of her sometimes? ffs. - 3y old kids that behave like 12y and can run like the wind. - mc that after almost 3y think he still in a dream and will return home anytime now. - Not a single world building. There is guild, portals and monsters, but nothing that is shown because we need to follow the mc in some of the most mundane and brain dead adventures - There is much more, but whatever. The worse part is that the plot has potential, but is extremely wasted for a apparent lack of planning and editing. Also the author posted the same chap 2 times, effectively cutting part of the history. I usually just ignore novels I don't like, and I really like the premise. It's sad to see it wasted.

    It's practically trash. This mc is a dumb-*ss. he doesn't do what smart mcs do especially when they knew the plot. Not only that, the conversations seems forced.

    This ongoing WebNovel is a must-read for anyone who loves a good story. The author's writing style is so engaging and the world they've created is so immersive that I'm constantly captivated by the story. The characters are so well-developed that I feel like I know them personally, and the ongoing nature of the story only adds to the excitement and anticipation. I highly recommend this WebNovel!

    I like the concept a lot since the MC actually has an important role from the start and not a no-name person. I'm interested to see how he performs in the future

    Pretty bad story if I have to be honest. The grammar isn’t bad, but there are some mistakes here and there and isn’t really special. It’s also pretty short completed story which isn’t necessarily a bad thing about for this novel. It really doesn’t help it all. The story development is the most interesting thing about this novel but it’s completely ruined by the inadequacy of our main character. The character designs are nonexistent as the world building.

    The mc is so dumb. He always complains about not wanting to meet his brother bu, every time the creepy man or someone else wants them to meet, he just goes along with it. He said that he gave the swcond male lead a ton of potentcial to keep up with the real Mc but, he complains that he is not geting stronger and he has no special abilitis. Everytime the Author wants something dangures to happen he just sands the mc to a dungeon and lets something fail.
