!!THIS CHAPTER HAS BEEN UPDATED!!

[ Expressionless Awakener ]

A novel's existence only shows a particular person's main experience or lifetime.

But there would be hundreds of kinds of novels that exists in one world isn't it?

But there is rarely any kind of special person that has a special backstory... Nonetheless, An Extra of a novel would have.

Every normal mob is always the kind to be.... normal isn't it?

Plain... Bland... and pretty much neutral, Even more, A backstory that almost everyone has..

Being born to a normal family and to a normal life.

Basically, that's what I have always been....

Right?

I continued to walk back to my house while looking for my mom as i carried a bag of sugar.

My mom, who is currently inside the kitchen, suddenly went out while carrying a utensil.

Mom:"Did you buy what i asked for?" My Step-mom: Elizabeth Johnson, asked tilting her head.

"Yes" I nodded simply.

Mom:"I hope you didn't forget about the salt again" She spoke as she made a weird expression.

"...i was supposed to buy salt..?" I asked as the tip of my hair resembled a question mark.

My mom took the bag and looked through what i was carrying and saw that i had bought sugar instead of salt.

Mom:"You forgot about the salt again didn't you..?" My mom spoke to me like this isn't the first time I have done this.

I looked down at my feet then at my mom with pitiful yet expressionless-like puppy eyes as I spoke:
".....sorry."

Mom:"......It's fine, It's not like this is the first time you forgot about something." My mom spoke as she smiled, walking back to the kitchen and continuing on cooking as usual.

"KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!"
Suddenly, my step-brother screamed in the top of his lungs as he ran to look for me:

"what do you want?" I spoke back with the usual poker face.

Brother:"Let's have a be-"

"No" I instantly rejected.

Brother:"So straightforward huh..?"

I nodded.

My Step-brother, Known as Micheal Johnson, Is usually the type to be... Really troublesome.

Micheal is one of those crazy types that would jump off a building to get what they want.

But even with his troublesome personality, he is also just a normal person like any other person would be.

Although he isn't actually the type to be very spoiled... He is just a bit more of a...... Well, It's a bit complicated.

One time, He made a bet with me to jump onto a very deep river when I was around 12 years old.

At that time, I didn't really want to do that kind of bet but the way he offered me some reward for it kind of made me..... agreed to it.

I can't help it tho, He offered a limited-edition candy from my favorite shop! So... I agreed to it without thinking twice.. I had the mind of a 12 year old so i couldn't help it!

Well... Things got a bit too problematic after that-

Luckily, I knew how to swim so we were both saved,
and thus, getting scolded by our parents afterwards.. But at least I got the candy though.

Brother:"Oh C'M-ON!!! It's going to be F-U-N!" My brother spoke as he dropped on the floor and begged excitedly.
