An Extra’s POV

Noah Sherlock had a very small frame for a High School Student.

With a cute face and an unimposing expression always displayed, he was always known to be a harmless yet fragile classmate.

As a result, he wasn't particularly bothered in class.

However, he was also a smartass who was recognized as a teachers' pet, so not too many people really liked him.

Since Noah was a smart student who always aced everything he set his heart to, he made a lot of people appear bad in comparison.

All of this culminated into a somewhat average Karma Points for him.

When his turn came to choose his Skills and Class, he could only afford three Skills.

Shadow Magic (B-Tier)

Phase (C-Tier)

Projection (C-Tier)

His Class on the other hand was pretty average as well. He got the [Thief] Class, which dealt in stealth and agility.

It was quite hilarious how he ended up following the path of his Class to the letter.

Noah was able to leave the Royal Estate thanks to this particular ability set that he obtained, so he didn't particularly dislike his Skills and Class.

Not only did the [Thief] Class automatically improve the effects of any Stealth-Based Skill by 50%, but it also had an innate ability of camouflage if one was still for long enough.

It perfectly suited his needs.

With [Projection], he could make people see illusions. Wirh [Phase], he could pass through matter—so long as there was no interference.

And, while he hadn't properly learned how to use his [Shadow Magic] Skill, he could turn his shadow tangible and loosely control it to do his bidding.

All in all, these abilities were incredibly useful when Noah ventured into the outside world to learn more about the world he had been summoned into.

There was a secret he had kept close to his chest—one that no one else knew.

He was a coward!

'I don't want to fight any Dragons! I just want a normal life!'

Unfortunately for him, he had no means or independent resources in this new world.

He was dependent on the Royal Council and the wealth of the United Human Alliance to survive.

That had to change!

And so, by coating himself in his Shadow, this increasing his height and appearing more intimidating, he ventured into the town and observed the commerce.

He was able to ask questions, and the people readily answered him thanks to his intimidating presence.
