Synopsis

Ed Rothstaylor is a third-rate villain in a game, disowned by his family and kicked out of the dormitory for his misdeeds. One day, our main character wakes up as this very Ed, and realizes he must earn a scholarship so he can graduate and be set for life. Now living in the woods, he resolves to keep away from the protagonists, but four of the female leads just won't leave him alone. Not only that, his presence starts to change the timeline and events of the game! Can Ed help the story progress while staying out of the limelight?

As I am writing this review, I have just binged 79 chapters in one day, and it is currently 3:21 a.m. Now, that might be because I'm a psychopath who has nothing else to do with my life other than reading manga and manhwas, but I'd like to think that it serves as a testament to how good this manhwa is.

Let me get this straight: this manga is VERY GENERIC. Or... that's what it should be, but it's not. Admittedly, my expectations were unfair for this manhwa due to it having a higher rating than my favorite and unique "S Tier" manhwas like "Surviving The ...
