A Guide for Background Characters to Survive in a Manga

On his first day at Infinite Abilities Academy, Su Bei, a freshman in Class F, awakens a new ability—and with it, a chilling realization: their world is actually a manga. The protagonist of that manga is his classmate Jiang Tianming. But that isn’t what worries him. What worries him is that in the next chapter, Su Bei is fated to die a miserable death in the restroom—an event that will serve as the protagonist’s first real challenge at the academy. The only silver lining? That chapter hasn’t been published yet. He can still rewrite his fate by changing the course of events, snatching himself from the jaws of a cannon fodder’s end. Everyone knows that befriending the protagonist is no guarantee of survival, but making an enemy of him is a sure path to defeat. Beneath the blazing sun, a golden-haired boy flashes a reckless grin, though a trace of solemnity lingers in his violet eyes: “Saluting you on behalf of fate, the unluckiest of the unlucky in this generation.”
