Aizawa, Daisuke: The Eminence in Shadow, Vol. 1

There's only one thing in this world Cid wants to be. And it's not some bland
protagonist or the final boss-he has his eyes set on becoming a mastermind working
in the shadows. Now that he's been reborn in another world, Cid has been hard at
work, building the perfect stage to act out his long-desired role. The issue is that
these imaginary adversaries and plot devises exist in this new world...and he's the
only one left in the dark!
