Reborn in Novel's Extra as Shadow Monarch

Next day

'Outcall' – a magic power explosion that occurred 50 years ago and shook the world. Following this event, mysterious entities like Gates, Towers, Dungeons, and monsters began to appear in the world.

These existences of chaos shook the very foundation of humanity. The blue planet of humans turned into hell. Monsters devoured humans, and Towers and Dungeons ceaselessly produced monsters like factories.

Gates are on whole different level if you don't complete a gate within time frame of 7 days the monster in them invade to real world and change the place for example Jeju Island an S rank gate which caused them to leave whole island for monster and these appear who now's where they may be in your room or in shopping mall and they have their own ranks till now only 2 S rank gates appeared till now and one has almost raged the america but cleared which is sacrifice of more than 17 s rank hunters and surviving 15 hunters are named as national hunters and other is failed jeju island S rank gate of Korea.

In front of these newfound calamities, humanity's science and technology lost their meaning. Society collapsed and the rule of law returned to the law of the jungle.

Survivors of the tragedy crumbled to their instincts, losing the virtues that made them human.

Within this hellfire, Heroes emerged shining stars or Hunters who are blessed with Mana can hurt monster from dungeons and gates with transcendental powers, they corrected the chaos. The world was reconstructed just as quickly as it collapsed.

Using Gifts bestowed by Mana, they brought about miracles with a flicker of their hands. With their help, humanity recovered their lost virtue, joining the Heroes with revitalized technology and science. 'Magic science' and 'magic engineering' was thus born.

Eventually, Gates ,Towers, Dungeons, and monsters were all designated as targets to be destroyed. However, the differences among them were great.

Gates and Towers required many people and a long period of time to be conquered. On the other hand, depending on their difficulty, Dungeons could be conquered by a single person, so long as he knew its location.

Towers gave better rewards, containing treasures that humans had never dreamed of as for Gates they have to be cleared it is not for rewards it is for survival some may encounter benefits or have catastrophe which can end humanity and it is remainder for them as the threat loomed over humanity .

Waking me from my train of thought with new found information of world I am living which completely shattered my fantasy professor asked the question to class.

"Then what was the name of the Tower conquered by the guild Apostle of Saints on August 17th, 2023, and what was its reward?"

"Minor questions like these don't come up often, but you should still know about conquests of Towers and Dungeons."

Morning class was 'Post-Outcall History.' The few sentences Things to remember were rewards from Towers, names of monsters, locations of Dungeons in Korea, conquerors of Towers and Dungeons, and countless others.

Meliodas : After observing and researching books on history of this world, i know now one thing it crossover of Solo leveling and Novels extra and i am dead meat if i dont increase my level as soon as possible i don't know whether there is Sun Jin Woo is present or not i have to verify other things and this theory is hell mode i can't possible pass the exams in future.

This are the times i really envy hajin the dude got invisible laptop he can practically cheat.

( "Hey great sage is there a way for me cheat like him" )

Great Sage { You are hopeless Successful creation of Inspection skill }

[ Inspection skill:

-It can give information of an object or opponent stats which are allowed.

-You can also copy skill books to master it and also remembered the information ]

What an amazing skill. I just have to Inspect the skill books and for exam now i can cheat too.

Meliodas : Thanks Great Sage your the best(～￣▽￣)～

Great Sage { Mel you seem to forget something }

the reason why i am not panicked is i don't have accurate information and panicking will not help me achieve anything it is better get information first and its not like i could do anything with this level and sharing information dude thats what maniack do and i better save the monsters i kill in dungeon in storage space from now on.

Meliodas : well it seems hajin has got his gifts his face no more question mark haha good for him and looking at his confused face i can see he didn't get a thing about hunters and Gates.

(Great sage search for sun jin woo details i want to now about him and his parent or anything get me information)

Great Sage {consider it done}

Class is boring this much theory on history did help me understand what is going on.

On the other hand, the girl sitting in front of me scratched her head and sighed. Looking at her, I think Chae Nayun hated studying.I can understand her and sympathies with her on it.

The lesson continued about Places with high mana density, monster behavior, Djinns on the wanted list...

The bell rang only after two hours had passed.

"Make sure to go back and read the notes you took today. Otherwise, you'll cry on the exam."

The grey-haired professor wearing round eyeglasses left with those words.

Chae Nayun : Argh, so annoying, why do I have to learn all this? Written exams are so annoying sister would have helped me if she is here. 

Chae Nayun began to complain the moment the professor left and her sister who is she i don't know However, her face was full of smiles when saying her name It was most likely they are close or may be because of the next class.

Anti-monster combat training and Gate(Dungeon) experience .

On the other hand kim hajin is on edge of breaking he never understand what is going on why there is hunters, Chae Nayun having twin sister Characters that aren't there in his original work of his and not having real fighting experience if i am correct he must have put all his stats on luck i better talk after this training he didn't even train in two weeks dude really need reality check before things go to doomsday.

Anti-monster combat training and Gate(Dungeon) Experience.

Just like its name suggested, it was combat training against monsters. The monsters used in the lesson were mana puppets, but their appearance and destructive power were faithful to the real thing of course, they were weaker than their real counterparts, but there was a high chance of getting injured.

I got excited i am looking forward to which heroine team i am going to be and can i get experience points form this monsters or not 

"We're meeting at the field in 20 minutes!"

After saying instructor went to field.

------------------------------------------------------

After a 20 minute break, everyone from the Veritas class gathered at the Novice Field.

With 100 people here, it seemed quite crowded.several are nervous and particular person his eyes are practically shaking and that is kim hajin he kinda remind me Green Broccoli haired kid who is going to attend his school.

I started to walk towards him and put my most benevolent and harmless smile on my handsome face and started conversion with him.

Meliodas : so are you nervous na scratch that your eyes practically telling me that by the way my name is Meliodas what about you.

< Kim Hajin (Pov) >

who is this guy and why he is approaching me and what's with the look like a old guy looking at clueless lost kid and i never even mentioned him in my novel may be an extra character but with all this new stuff happening and with this kinda protagonist looks how is the guy is extra i better check his details first let's talk to him.

Kim hajin : yes kinda nervous and i am Kim Hajin rank 934 what about you are you nervous.

Meliodas : hmm not really by the way my rank 500,so what do you think how are teams going to be divided.

What the there is guy like this in in my novel but i never even mentioned him may be died during dijin attack or something but 500 rank that's suspicious. 

Kim hajin : i don't know may be balancing the team with high and low rank cadets or may may be based on weapon choice or whether they are closed quarters fighters or long range like something.

Meliodas : hmm don't worry if we are on same team you can trust on me.

Kim Hajin : yeah thanks.

< Kim hajin (pov end) >

Then kim soohyuk came making cadets all go silent he then announced.

Kim Soohyuk : I'm sure you all know what this lesson is about, so I'll announce the teams without explanation. Unless something special happens, this team will be the same until after the midterms.

Kim Soohyuk : Team members will be selected fairly. Lower ranked cadets will be paired with higher ranked cadets.

[Team 1]

[Kim Suho / Kim Lang]

[Sung Seung-Un / Cage]

[Team 2]

[Demian / Rosen]

[Chun Lee / Chae Nayun]

...

...

[Team 5]

[Jin Hoseung / Hazuki]

[Meliodas / Yoo Yeonha]

[Team 6]

[Jin Tamuza / Ellena]

[Kim Hajin / Rachel ]

Seeing it was me with her and hajin has the same look as me we are busted well me particularly,on other hand i have messed with canon or it is already a mess as this first step in novel where he get to meet yeonha and get his famous Desert eagle because of impression he made to her with gunner skills and i am also kind envy how lucky he get in team with Rachel the Princess where as i am with tigress queen.

"sigh"

Meliodas : Wish me luck hajin you lucky bastard i need it.

Saying it i playfully punched his shoulder he looked at me stinky eye rubbing his shoulder asked me 

Kim Hajin : what the hell did i do wrong to you, for you to angry on me.

Meliodas : well you get to spend time with princess,while i have to suffer the wrath of tigress queen you're one hell of lucky bastard you know that.

Kim Hajin : well wish you luck then (⊙_⊙)?

he said with small chuckle i think he is thinking about how yeonha in future become queen of seoul.

Meliodas : well if i survive this lets meet at cafe to have chat i have something to discusses with you about a particular novel you will like it and i will call you i have your number anyway .

Hajin was practically shocked the matter i said to him is like bomb on his head and i run away before he could ask me more questions.

< Kim Hajin Pov >

what in the world is that guy said is it same novel i am thinking is he like me a Transmigrator or reincarnator i better check him with Observation and Reading.

I looked at him with my skill but when i did everything around me changed

I am more feared than shocked all i am seeing is eternal darkness surrounding me it is like endless Abyss then i remembered something i listened from my sister "When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back at you " then i saw two glowing eyes and i couldn't say a word in front of it then it said.

" It is not yet time don't disturb me begone "

And i am back to reality and it's like time didnt even pass in world around me and the guy who caused this all without even knowing what kinda bomb he dropped on hajin he gathered with his team.

My body is practically shaking I can't even understand what it is it's like end of everything ethereal everlasting the truth and something primal its just something out of this world.

I Couldn't help mutter in low voice " what are you Meliodas "
