Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.

In the blink of an eye, one week had passed, and the current Soma was wearing casual clothes: a black short trunk, a white casual T-shirt, a short-sleeved Hoodie, and sandals.

"Finally arrived".

It is a beautiful scenery with crystal clear blue water glittering under the light from the sun that hung above; underneath it, there is a revealing underwater world, rich with colorful coral reefs and diverse marine life.

The glare of the scorching sun that stung his skin reminded him of the summer that had already come, a white powdery sand that spread in front of him accompanied by the lush greenery from the tree and many other Okinawan flora which added to the view that pleased his eyes.

"Soma, let's go to our accommodation first".

Hina, who silently admired the scenery beside him, began to tug on his sleeves and leave the place along with the other members.

"Okay, let's go, Xiao Lian".

"...Mm".

Soma turned his gaze toward the girl beside him, who was dazed, looking at the scenery with glittering eyes full of joy and anticipation. Born and raised in a strict family, Xiao Lian has never had any chance to visit other places since she was aware of the world.

So, this was indeed her first time visiting this blue ocean, as she tried to capture the scenery in the minuscule detail of it.

After feeling that was enough, Xiao Lian began to follow Soma from behind and went toward the place where the traveling club member would stay for five days.

They current schedule for the first day is arriving at the place safely and, for the remaining time, discussing the strategy among the club members and their own group about how they would explore the dungeon.

The second day is the start of the exploring; each team will be assigned an interval in between to enter the dungeon and dive as far as possible. This activity will be conducted for the next three days. As for the remaining days, they will be spent enjoying themselves to the fullest and playing on the beach. Then, tomorrow morning, they will go to the academy.

"Soma, have you noticed?".

"What is it?".

"It seems Leon is also here".

"Is that so?".

"Yeah, I accidentally saw his figure a moment ago."

"I see".

Leon, who was not part of the traveling club, also joined this expedition as he was one of the student council members who acted as the observer and protector in case something happened to the club.

His status as a savior greatly impacts his presence in this place. This place is also the one that will plunge him into the depth of despair. "If I recall, Leon was put into the B-Group along with Xiao Lian and Hina. I need to get a grip on this event".

After several minutes of walking from the beach, they faced a luxurious mansion that stood tall along with the expansive states, framed by a steel gate and fence stretching to form a cage offering a sense of privacy and security.

"Everyone, let's enter the mansion".

The echoing sound from Kaori, who led the pact, and Serafina, who held the key to the mansion, saw the gate softly open and gave the people in place great expectation and excitement.

The expansive garden is lush with green carpet and the white paved stone road that branches in the middle area, showing the other place.

However, the moment when all the members present wanted to enter the mansion, a loud notice from the megaphone jolted everyone in place as they turned toward the source.

"Everyone, before we enter, I want to summarize today's schedule briefly. After entering the room you have been preparing for, you guys need to go toward the field, behind the mansion, and we will conduct a strategy meeting and bonding between the traveling club members and our guest".

As the leader of the traveling club, Ryuu stands in front of the crowd and, with his clear and dignified tone, manages to attach the participant's gaze toward him, slowly listening to his words.

"... The boys will have the third-floor room, the girls will have the second floor-, and our guests, the teachers, can use the first floor. That is all the speech I will give, then Miss Serafina, by all means. Please, open the door".

"Okay".

Serafina, who seems to be the holder of the key, opened the mansion and let the fresh air enter inside, making the interior look vibrant. The interior was vast and filled with many luxurious items like paintings hung on the wall. It also stood on the side as a vase with fresh and colorful flowers; above them, a grandiose chandelier hung, exerting its presence.

The boys and the girls who admired the interior inside walked toward the stairs that stretched to both sides, and they began to enter the second floor,

"Soma, let's meet again at the field. Let's go Silver hair".

"Mm".

"Okay,".

As for the boys, they still need some patience because they have to walk along the corridor on the second floor to the opposite side, ascending the next stairs that will lead them toward the third floor.

"Okay, guys, the second year is here, the third year is here, and the first year is here; up you go!".

Ryuu selected two rooms for the boy from each year to stay, except for the first year, which still did not have many participants.

"Soma?".

"Leon, glad to see you here".

"Heh, me too".

Leon, who noticed Soma's appearance from behind, approached him, and they began to enter the room for the first year. The room was wide but empty. This is also one of the ways to prevent the students from fighting over the bed.

Soma began to settle himself, looking toward the empty interior, which only provided two other doors that led to the toilet and bathroom, which also had a wide space from his perspective. He approached the large window in the innermost part of the room that filtered the light from the scorching sun, brightening the empty room.

He already prepared everything inside his relic. There was nothing he could do. He turned toward the other students and spoke.

"You guys can pick whatever place you want. I will go first to the Arena".

"Eh? Soma, wait!".

Leon, who stiffened hearing his words, began to follow him from behind, accompanied by the gaze from the other first year. Leon closed the distance with him as they walked down the stairs and softly whispered.

"Aren't you a bit cold toward them?".

"Hmm, Well, I don't have the energy to act close to them, and besides, I just want to tell them to pick whatever place they want".

"That is the problem, Soma. In the first year, there was not a single person who didn't recognize you. You are strong, and the recent incident proved right; they were probably became more hesitant after you spoke like that".

"I see".

This is starting to bother him. Somehow, the rumor about Soma demolishing a building in the Ark got leaked, creating chaos inside the academy, especially among the first-year students. The rumor also states that Soma is doing that to rescue the kidnapped children; many people admire his bravery, but a lot of them begin to feel fear toward him because of that.

"Well, I will consider it later".

"You should!".

As Soma and Leon arrived on the first floor, it was already filled with people. Soma spotted several familiar faces and began to approach them.

"Soma and Sir. Leon!".

"It's been a while, Soma, Leon".

"Sera? It's been a while, Senior Lucy".

"Good day to you, Seniors".

Serafina and Lucy, the duo beauty from the second-year academy, greeted them with a blossomed smile, garnering the other's attention to Soma. The most noticeable thing about their conversation was that Soma was not using any honorifics when talking with Serafina, which is what the other people are curious about.

"...Where is the field, by the way?".

"It's behind the mansion, here! I will guide you there".

Soma began to follow Serafina, who tugged his sleeves, making all the males in the place jump in shock and the girls squeal in delight.

"You are awfully familiar with this place".

"Hm? Ah, I haven't told you yet, huh".

"?".

"This is my property".

"Amazing".

"Right?".

Serafina, who seems in a good mood, guides, suddenly drops a boom, leaving the unaware people stunned in silence. Soma and Serafina beside him began to converse occasionally, talking about the small things that were around them.

Lucy and the other, who saw the two of them talk as if the world was centered around them, felt amazed and respectful toward Soma, who could completely melt the cold iron mask. As for Lucy, she giggled behind them, watching her best friend have the time for herself.

"Wait a minute!".

Serafina began to open the door with the card in her possession, letting a satisfying click as it was open, letting in another warm air from the outside world.

"Let's go, Soma".

Her warm and soft palm suddenly grabs Soma's left hand, pulling him outside. He is welcomed by a vast land of lush greenery swayed along the soft wind that passes by; alongside it, there are several trees that stand tall in intervals, casting their soft shadow on the land, creating a canopy for taking a leisurely rest.

"This is a pretty wide field".

"Hmhm, this is my pride. The truth is there is a gazebo in the middle of this, but after discussing it with some of my clubmates, I decided to store it away temporarily".

"I see. Well, what is our agenda?".

"Let's wait for the other to arrive first".

"Okay. ...Do you mind if I train in the field?".

"What training?".

"Just my routine; I still haven't met my daily quota."

"Go ahead".

"Thanks, Sera".
