Jin Wei is already a powerful transmigrator so even without the help of the system he can already match the status of the protagonist.

However, he was assigned in a low-lying role, so he should not do any necessary stuff to get noticed. Even while his actions won't have any effect on the plotline, he could nonetheless have an influence on how individuals interact around the world.

After all, you still need that one small grain of sand to create a mountain.

Furthermore, mob characters are still characters of the story. Though nameless, they still take part in the mechanism running within the dimension. They are the gears of the machine that wasn't visible but necessary in order for the mechanism to work. Because he is a figure who shouldn't exist, he ought to try to impose as little impression as possible.

"After meeting his teacher, what would happen to him?" Jin Wei probed.

「The protagonist will follow his master to a prestigious magic school. There, the protagonist will face challenges as a student, as well as the truth behind his true origin.」

If the regular course of events continues, the instructor will act as the mentor who shapes the main character into a model citizen. And owing to Laurem's aptitude, he may effortlessly transcend his limitations and rise to prominence.

Of course, such an event won't go off without a hitch. Laurem will undoubtedly encounter adversaries throughout his term at the academy given that he is the main protagonist. With his obscure and primitive origins, there should be a lot of people mocking him and wishing him ill luck.

That doesn't interest Jin Wei. Laurem, despite being the protagonist, is a stranger to him. Additionally, Jin Wei is a stranger in Laurem's eyes. If there are any grounds for sympathy at all, it would be Laurem's unfortunate beginnings.

「The protagonist will go through this and that and at the age of eighteen will go into the domain of expertise. He'll begin receiving the finest of the greatest from fate and develop into the figure that everyone admires and covets.」

"That quick?"

「New difficulties will present themselves that revolve on his heritage. At the designated moment, his body's mysteries will be disclosed.」

Jin Wei remembered Laurem's unfortunate mother.

"Assuming the usual trope, that high-ranking demon will evolve as the next Demon King?"

System 777 popped out a holographic party popper to congratulate Jin Wei on his correct answer. It spent a considerable amount of time flying over Jin Wei's head to scatter the confetti before settling on Jin Wei's unkempt hair. The animation of the hologram gradually thinned out then is gone after a few seconds.

「That is the final stage of the story. Due to racial intolerance, his heritage made many people despise him.」

Man versus himself is one of the known tropes employed in literature and usually utilized as an ending conflict in stories addressing self-doubt and moral struggle. Laurem's demon identity is always a hidden bomb all through out the story.

"Is it a happy ending?"

Yes.」The system answered in affirmative. [It is a stallion story, after all. He will marry once... twice... thrice ... then will bear children that would give rise to a generation of geniuses. The happily ever after theme will play out.]

"En. So heroic, so inspiring," Jin Wei applauded. "But it seems to be lacking."

He thought for a long time then asked, "Why is there no element of revenge here?"
