The Extra's Return-Chapter 19 A Little Thing About Our Main Character

?Baron Warwick introduced me to the guests.

As I shake hands with them one by one, I talk about how happy I am to have a father like Baron Warwick.

Basically, I'm saying Baron Warwick is a great person. I act like a good boy. So when Baron Warwick kicks me out again later, for whatever reason, I won't look like the person who has the fault.

Even though I tried my best to keep a smile and speak in a friendly manner like a well-educated noble, the people's response was not friendly at all.

And among these annoying old nobles, the person in front of me right now is the one that irritates me the most.

His most prominent feature is his very thick mustache. His belly is bloated and full of fat. Even so, he stood with his chest outstretched.

He is an old noble. When you see it in one glance, you will feel annoyed. That's the impression I have.

"Do you know who I am, son?"

He spoke in an arrogant tone. His face was facing up, and his eyes looked at me as if he was looking down on me. No, he's really looking down on me.

He also did not respond to my outstretched hand.

With a forced smile, I tried to speak with all my might.

"Sorry, sir. I don't know."

"Pffft~ it's only right that you don't know. Aren't you a descendant of the trash of Baron Warwick?!"

He covered his mouth as if he didn't want to laugh at me. Yet anyone knew he was doing it on purpose to insult me ??and Baron Warwick.

Not only him, but it turned out that most people were also laughing secretly. They averted their faces and laughed softly.

I should be angry, but I can only bite my lower lip. Besides, I can't get angry or even hit him.

I convinced myself that I wasn't an emotional person. Somehow, I have to endure their insults for now.

I glanced at Baron Warwick who was also enduring the old nobles' insults. Now I better understand the burden he is carrying. For some reason, a little sympathy arose in my heart.

When Baron Warwick saw my gaze, he immediately whispered in my ear. He mentioned that the person in front of me was Count McBride. Only then did I know who he was.

After knowing the name, now I can say thank you.

"Thank you for your insult, Count McBride. I will remember what you said. If the opportunity arises, I will certainly repay you."

"Hoh~ you're good at talking too. But, why do you sound like you're insulting me?"

I spoke to Count McBride with my head slightly lowered, a sign of respect. My expression also smiled brightly.

But, my tone or words must have offended him. His old face suddenly changed color to a bright red color.

Besides, I was also serious when I said that. I will look up information about these people later. Then I will reply to them.

It's not like I'm being impulsive, it's just that noble society is cruel. Biting each other has become commonplace.

"Brother, since when are you so good at socializing like that?"

After greeting the old nobles, I approached Willa and was immediately asked such a question.

Willa's eyes are still wide open, forming the letter O along with her small mouth which is also in the shape of an O. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

She looked very surprised.

From her point of view, it may seem strange when she discovers the nature of her brother who a few days ago still likes to lock himself in his room, but suddenly becomes a person who is good at socializing.

Although, if you look at me from the outside, you'll find I look really good at socializing, honestly I'm not.

Honestly speaking, I really don't like formal gatherings like this. If possible, I don't want to do this. But I have to.

Suddenly everyone's gazes flowed toward the entrance of the banquet hall. Like a bunch of cats when fed, everyone's heads turned towards the entrance at the same time.

I also turned to see what was going on. It turned out that the door of the banquet hall opened once again. And then someone came into this banquet hall.

He is the long-awaited main character. I don't know why he came so late.

Was he implementing the characteristics of a hero? Where a hero always comes late? That's really not worth emulating.

Yes, he is Jullian Arkie.

The bright aura he gave off was brighter than the entire glow of the magic lamp hanging over the hall of the banquet hall.

He had a striking appearance. He wore a breastplate with a cloak hanging from his back. The clothes were different from the other guests. But that only made him even more attractive.

I shifted my gaze from Jullian towards Willa.

I saw that Willa was looking down languidly. Her hand gripped the hem of my shirt.

Then, I put my hand on her head. My hand touched her silky hair. Then the tremors in her body lessened slightly.

I don't know why Willa reacted like this. Whereas from a girl's point of view, Jullian is the perfect male figure. But maybe her intuition said otherwise. I don't know.

"Brother, should I run away?"

"Don't worry. I will make sure that what you imagine won't happen."

Suddenly, Baron Warwick arrives and drags Willa to meet Jullian.

Maybe she was a little convinced by my words, she just gave up when Baron Warwick invited her to see Jullian.

Not only Willa and Baron Warwick but also the other old nobles who approached Jullian. Each of them immediately surrounded Jullian.

Meanwhile, I just watched from afar.

I suddenly thought of a few things.

***

A glimpse of the nature of the main character in the novel Demon Lord and Hero of Light, if referring to the division of personality, then Jullian Arkie's personality was more inclined to extrovert personality.

In more detail, he was the type of the main character who was selfish, overconfident, and liked to be the center of attention.

If you read a novel with such a main character, won't you really like it?

Same as me. When I was reading the novel Demon Lord and Hero of Light, I really liked the confidence of the main character.

To be honest, it was a bit difficult for me to say, but I had a pessimistic and insecure personality. In essence, my nature was very different from Jullian's.

Therefore, when I was reading the novel Demon Lord and Hero of Light, I was able to open up a new perspective. And that motivated me a little bit. I was motivated to have a more confident nature.

But that was only when I read the novel. When I went into this world and felt everything in this novel world, I changed my mind.

Although I was happy when I was reading a novel with such a main character, when I was in the same world, I couldn't help but feel unhappy.

That was indeed a bit of a contradiction. Just reading and real experience are very different. Something we like when we read does not mean we will like it when we are actually in the world of our reading.

Despite all that, even though the main character, Jullian, had such a personality, he had enough capital to be able to support his traits. So, there's no point in getting angry.

Like the main character in general, he has a lot of cheats. From having a great background to having the blessings of a power far greater than anyone else.

As if the world revolved around Jullian, luck was always in his hands, whether it was about money, women, or even power, he had it all.

In the novel itself, the story only focuses on Jullian who goes everywhere to save people. At least, that's what I remember.

Then, with his aristocratic status, with strength greater than any villain he fought, and with the handsome countenance plastered on his face, he somehow began to acquire women one by one.

I've always wondered, what if I had a perfect life like him? Wouldn't that be so beautiful?

However, I can only speculate because I knew that was impossible.

I want to tell myself that yearning for other people's lives will only cloud our view of our own way of life, but I realized that my life path was only full of suffering.

Considering all the suffering I had gone through, it was only natural that I desperately wanted a life similar to the Jullian way of life.ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂
