Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.

It was the result of just a light tap of its paw to the ground and managed to do intense damage to Soma\'s body. His mind was shivering in fright, imagining the wolf had struck him with its full force.

"Kuuh".

In that paralyzed world, Soma could hear the wailing voice of Hina, who seemed far away, pleading for his life. With Soma\'s current body, he could do nothing but listen to those wails from her mouth.

Soma grits his teeth, trying to move his body forcefully, but to no avail. His vision turned blurry as the overwhelming presence in front of him was preparing for its next attack, for he could see its shadow that enveloped him twitch.

The body kept ringing an alarm from the impending danger, but Soma could do nothing but wait for the death that would reap his life at any moment.

"Move my body, move! Why don\'t you listen to me? Please, come on, move! Damn it, Why am I being struck with lightning? Should I have resistance for it?". Soma muttered.

Then, he also wonders why the necklace on his neck is not working. He is feeling helpless as the wolf is taking his time to kill Soma.

A flash of memories begins to replay in his mind. A distant memory of two individuals who share the same body started to appear in his sight.

The memories of his parents from the previous and in the current world, the harsh life he should live as an orphan and the agony he experienced in this world, the sudden magical phenomenon where he transmigrated inside a novel, recklessly facing a danger, addicted to a sense of growing, that lead him to this place while also involved someone he needs to protect.

Then, a sudden whisper replayed in his mind.

{Let me help you}.

Soma opened his eyes wide as he realized that there was still a strong being residing inside his body. Even though his mind knows that the devil is like a double-edged sword that could bring him relief to escape the predicament he is currently in. He also fears what the devil would do to his body.

However, Soma had no other option, as he closed his eyes and tried to submerge himself in his inner place.

{Stop that Soma. You shouldn\'t rely on the Devil. I will help you}

"Martial saint?!".

{Lent me your body for a moment}

At the time, the wolf almost killed Soma, swinging its right paw coated with lightning. Soma\'s body emitted a faint yellow light before the wolf\'s eyes flickered, and he missed the target. The ground which impacted turned black, and it created a small crater that raised dust across the flattened ground, blocking everyone\'s sight.

The wolf felt something was amiss. He swung its tail and created a gust of strong wind that blew away the rising dust that blocked his sight. As he regained his vision, the wolf turned his attention sideways and found Soma standing behind him unscathed.

"Good grief, what sort of trouble for you to fight a strong monster at your current power, Soma?".

A bold, deep voice echoed throughout the vast space. The air turns still for a moment as the wolf shrinks its gaze, looking at the change that occurred toward the boy. Who is supposedly unconscious, is now standing on its feet, looking at him with a relaxed attitude.

{I am sorry for the trouble, Martial Saint}

"No need. I just simply want to help my inheritor, that\'s all, and it\'s been a while since I saw the world".

Despite their exchanged souls, Soma could still communicate with the Martial Saint, who currently possesses his body.

"Soma..?".

Hina, who saw Soma standing still in front of her, raised her doubt. She certainly saw the wolf delivering its final attack to kill him, but Soma was currently standing in front of her, showing his wide back with no injuries whatsoever.

"Um, you are? If I recall..".

{Hina, her name is Akabane Hina. My friend}

"Fumu, I see".

As she saw Soma talking to himself, she raised her brows. Then she notices that Soma\'s red eyes turn into golden pupils. She became alarmed as she shot a glare at the person who possessed Soma.

"Who are you?".

"..There is nothing for you to be worried about, little girl. Soma is safe. We just switched places. So you don\'t have to worry".

"What do you mean?".

"Grrr".

The wolf, who is being ignored, feels annoyed as the electricity around its body intensifies.

"Awooo".

"Hee, it seems getting serious now".

{Seriously?}.

"Little girl uses some protection magic or some sort to protect yourself. So you won\'t get involved in the battle".

"Eh? What do you mean?".

Martial Saint took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly, then, from within, emerged a glow of a divine aura that coated Soma\'s body whole. The light gives a calm and gentle vibe to anyone nearby. It\'s a calm harbor in the storm, a gentle assurance that everything will be alright. It\'s the comfort that everything would be okay. He tensed the muscles in his body and disappeared from everyone\'s sight.

The wolf senses something dangerous from the gentle light Soma emits. His shrunken sight intensified as the fur in his body stood to no end, and true to his instinct, Martial Saint disappeared from sight and then appeared in front of him while pulling its fist back, trying to attack.

From that gesture alone, the wolf instinct rang a dangerous alarm as the quiver in his body intensified. It started to gather its strength into his right paw, and simultaneously, their attack clashed.

A huge shockwave blasted the surrounding air from the two clashes. The air was shaken, and the ground trembled before cracks started to form like spider webs. They were still in a locked state before the Martial Saint opened his mouth.

"Fool".

Martial Saint\'s aura rose, and his hands, enhanced to the max, managed to deflect the wolf\'s physical strength despite having the difference in size.

The wolf, whose attack was deflected blank for a moment before his face turned furious, for his pride had been wounded because of the human before him.

Raiju, a monster who has high intelligence, has a high pride in his own strength. Then, upon witnessing his prided strength being deflected, it showed its thick killing intent, seriously trying to kill Soma.

{Wow, Martial Saint is so strong. Wait, It could still get stronger?}

Soma muttered while observing the battle between Martial Saint and Raiju. His heart was throbbing in elated feelings seeing the Martial Saint manage to deflect Raiju\'s attack effortlessly and those pictures etched deeply inside his brain. He begins to imagine the future where he could gain strength as magnificent as if the world is the palm of his hands. His soul was shivering in excitement.

Martial Saint, who is connected through the soul, could feel the surging of desire from Soma. The corner of his lips lifted as he opened his mouth.

"Soma, this is a special lecture from me".

{What is it?}

"I will train you to master the first technique I invented in ancient times and make you ascend to the next level".

{...For real?}
