Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.

Sooma's gaze was sharp as he looked toward his own devil self, who slowly showed himself, approaching with a wide snicker on his face.

Different from the last time when the Devil was still in the form of black smoke, his current appearance mirrored Soma's, with additional traits that separated them.

The Devil parted his lips and looked downward, probing the boy in front of him. Then, his eyes glanced upward, looking at the two crimson stars glittering brightly, showing their existence.

"Well, you have quite an upgrade there? This kind of Power, I like it!".

He is impressed; seeing the new power that Soma learned genuinely baffles him. However, it was not a type of bad shock. Instead, the Devil is impressed that Soma could slowly prepare in case something happens. The Devil didn't know that this kind of power existed.

"It seems you properly heed my warning".

"What are you talking about?".

"Heh, Well. If you didn't want to disclose it then I wouldn't pry, but".

All of a sudden, the Devil's body disappeared before it reappeared beside Soma with his fist thrust forward. Noticing the attack, Soma, who was wary about the Devil's movement, began to act.

Soma lowered his stance while dodging the Devil's punch. He countered by shifting his body weight and launching an elbow strike aimed toward the Devil's right ribs.

The Devil easily caught the attack, and both of them stayed in the position for a couple of seconds, and then the Devil smiled.

"Not bad!".

After being impressed by Soma's reaction. The Devil began to launch his assault and utilized the movements that Soma had ingrained and trained in his body. He performed a perfect copy through all of it.

Soma, feeling calm, observed every movement the Devil made and was already expecting this because of their connected souls, bound together. It is not strange if the Devil could do it, too.

Both of them perform high-speed close-quarters combat, which involves striking, dodging, and deflecting, using all of their bodies as weapons.

However, one thing is different: the Devil had an advantage in the fight, using his wings to blind Soma for a while and his tail, which could be used as a slight distraction.

…..

Without Soma's knowledge, dozens of translucent windows appeared outside his line of sight as his body responded to the situation of its owner's body.

He could only feel it. Slowly, his breathing slowed down, and he entered a state of intense concentration. His consciousness and senses expanded; he could clearly see the movement around him, whether it was the enemy or the airflow.

A single fist blocked his sight, and Soma tilted his head to the side, dodging it and entering the Devil's domain while swinging his fist upward.

The Devil bent his body and shifted his stance to the side, circling around Soma and putting strength in his feet before launching a kick, aiming at Soma's jaw.

Because of the sudden action from the Devil and Soma being delayed for a moment, he raised his arms to protect his face.

Upon collision, he could feel a sudden blow that pierced through his blockade, shaking his entire body numb while his body blew a couple of meters away.

Both sides maintain their stance before the devil chuckles and cracks a laugh as he releases the tension in his body.

"Kahahaha, not bad for a self taught!".

Soma also lowered his hands but did not dismiss his tensed body, cautious about the Devil's whim.

The Devil's body suddenly 'poff' turned into black smoke as he reappeared in front of the majestic tree, standing with his back wide exposed.

"Fuuh, that was such a great warm up. You know what, my body feels stiff after being chained by that Yellow Guy and now he is gone, I am completely free".

He twisted his joints, showing that he was having a hardship for all this time.

"What are you intending to do?".

After the disappearance of Martial Saint, Soma prepared himself for the worst that the devils inside him would wreak havoc if he showed a slight weakness.

However, after all this time, there is no disturbance that makes him wonder what exactly the Devil inside him wants to do.

"Nothing".

"Like I would believe you".

"...Well, Sorry to say that, but because of one of your skills, it seemed impossible for me to try to overtake your body now!".

"...".

Soma listened to the Devil's word in silence and was full of doubt. He still vividly remembers the time he faced Gura when, all of a sudden, the Devil took control over him without his consent.

As if understanding what actually happened in Soma's mind, the Devil scoffed and then turned his back, facing him with an unusually gentle smile which flustered Soma.

"You think I am lying, huh?".

"Truthfully, yeah!".

"Your honest point is truly stabbing me in the chest. Well, anyway let's change the topic!".

"What are you…?!".

"The second star, when will you breach it?".

The Devil lifted his gaze and saw the dark sky with two glittering crimson stars looking at him, asking to be getting some attention.

"They were begging there, can't you see it?".

Soma followed his line of sight, and true to the Devil's word, the second star was slightly quivering without reason. The crimson energy that had accumulated in it had already reached its threshold and was on the brink of falling out.

"It's rare for you to show me this kindness. It seems creepy!".

"Well, I am you after all, so I will always support you from here".

"Hmph, yeah".

Silence descends upon the place as the two similar beings with different figures stare at the sky as if searching for something, grasping what is within reach but having no will to accomplish it.

"I'm leaving!".

"Hm? What is this? This is rare for you to say goodby to me, do you sympathize with this lonely me!".

"Suit yourself!".

Before the demon could say something again, Soma closed his eyes and slowly detached his consciousness from the Devil's world.

Slowly, his consciousness faded, and the desolate world in front of him collapsed, leaving a chunk of land large enough for the two figures to stand.

"Listen, Soma. You are already on the right track, keep training and don't forget to utilize everything in your possession to protect what you have. Don't fail there because I am _______".

Strangely, the Devil's warning keeps ringing in his ears as he returns toward his usual vast space with a myriad of twinkling stars and two bright stars in crimson glaring at him.

"Fuu, let's put that aside now. I need to face the trial in front of me first!".

Soma regulated his breathing, circulating the natural energy that entered his body. Slowly, as enough power had accumulated, Soma gathered it toward his right palm and gently lifted it as if trying to reach the second stars that kept blinking rapidly, asking to be freed.

"Let's ascend to the next star!".

With a grabbing motion, the second star shattered, generating a significant amount of crimson energy that flooded his consciousness, spreading to his whole being.

Meanwhile, outside his conscious world, a huge shockwave blasted away the surrounding atmosphere, shaking the land beneath, and it managed to acquire the attention of everyone who was prepared to go toward the dreamland.

"What happened?".

Hina, Xiao Lian and Serafina, who felt it, opened up the window and jumped from the second floor of the manor as they saw Soma standing straight in the middle of the field while being enveloped by a crimson aura.

"Soma?!".

Xiao Lian's face alerted as she almost jumped off to Soma's side but was stopped by Hina, who acted fast.

"What is going on with him?".

Serafina, still oblivious to the situation, asked someone who might know the answer, but the questions also appeared in everyone else's minds.

"Young lady!".

Violet, who came out from the side, started to give them an explanation about what had happened to Soma.

"I didn't have any solid proof of this, but, I think Lord Soma is attempting his second enlightenment!".

The girls opened their eyes wide in shock as they understood the meaning behind it. They exchanged looks for a second before they saw another batch of groups appearing, not only their families but also the people who were working in the manor.

"What is happening, Soma?!".

Hisako, who walked out wearing her sleepwear along with her husband, witnessed Soma alone in the field, which made them worry about the colour that enveloped him.

"That was?".

Beatrice, who seemed familiar with the situation, stood dumbfounded. She once heard about this phenomenon that happened in her backyard from Serafina and Violet, who understand this kind of thing.

"Xiao Ma??... Xiao Ma!!".

Xiao Rui seemed oblivious to the situation. Her face was pale, and her world turned upside down as she witnessed her nephew in an unknown state that might be dangerous.

She focused her strength on her feet and tried to rush forward, but three figures of the girls and Violet stood in her way, intercepting her.

"Lian'er, what is this about? Please move away, Xiao Ma is, Xiao Ma is…!".

"It's okay, Aunt. Believe in Him!".

"What?!".

"Believe in Him, trust me!".

Another blast happened, which shook the entire mansion and garnered everyone's attention to the field.
