Our protagonist is just a simple young man, one who enjoys playing games more than anything else. Until one day, he answers a question. A simple act that changes his life forever, as he's thrown into the game he's played more than any other.

However he enters not as the protagonist of the story, but a total extra, Thomas. With the lowest stats, no abilities, no talent, and in a world where [Treasure] is important, he's stripped of the ability to even use them???

Even with the worst luck, the worst character, and the worst possible fate to him, Thomas decides that he will make the most of this second life. Fighting against the system, helping to raise protagonists, becoming the shadow king of the academy, and becoming a threat even bigger than the final boss himself? A true story of weak to strong, Thomas promises that he will take on a role none could ever have imagined.

He will become the strongest. The Ultimate Extra.

-Polygamy and harem ahead, though it may take a while for it to come together.
-Protagonist goes from extremely weak to eventually becoming the strongest. All of his power-ups are hard work, effort, and development based. He has a unique ability that nobody else in the world has, but that alone doesn't make him OP right away.
