"They were once geniuses, heroes, kings... until the protagonist arrived, and they were reduced to supporting roles."
This is a world ruled by the "Child of Destiny." Beneath the protagonist's halo, every genius pales in comparison. The once-mighty Sword Saint becomes a laughingstock, the elven prodigy falls into darkness, and the King of Assassins is crushed with ease... Forgotten by the world and mocked by fate, they are called "useless supporting characters."
Yet when true disaster strikes and the protagonist is pushed to the brink, these "failures" step forward:
- The Sword Saint burns his life to unleash a god-slaying strike, asking only: "Does this sword strike deserve your era?"
- The fallen elf pays the price of eternal damnation to kindle starlight in the abyss: "Remember, I chose the light."
- The possessed senior brother blows up his own soul to awaken the protagonist, tears of blood streaming down his face: "Run... This time, let me protect you."
They were never born weak. They simply chose to become kindling, burning themselves to light the protagonist's path.
"Who says supporting characters are destined to be mediocre? We, too... can burn everything and rewrite fate!"
