Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.

Hina, who had seen the match develop earlier, sat in disbelief after seeing that last collision between Akane and Leon. She was pretty sure that Akane would win the match, but suddenly, Leon's body turned blurry, and Akane was the one who lay on the floor immobilized.

"Hina, do you see his movement?".

Serafina, from the side with knitted brows, solemnly spoke her mind.

"No, how about you, Silver hair?".

Xiao Lian also shook her head to the side. Both girls know that Xiao Lian is top among them in terms of physicality, but she herself couldn't register that movement earlier.

"Fufu, how was that? He is amazing, right?".

Only Lucy, who didn't participate in the competition, and the one who had faith in Leon, cheered for him, which invited bewildered faces from the other three.

"It seemed I must be careful when facing him later".

Hina spoke in a calculative manner as she thought about the plan on how to defeat Leon.

"Mm, you are right!".

Xiao Lian nodded solemnly as she clenched her fists on her thighs.

"!".

As for Serafina, she began to ponder whether she should use the power she kept hidden from the world or try to defeat Leon with all the power she had.

Lucy, seeing the three females immersed in their thoughts, felt embarrassed for her earlier joy. She hoped there was a hole nearby so she could hide in it.

As time passed, another senior from the third year appeared. She was a female with long brown hair who ascended the Arena with confident steps. Then, from the other side, another first-year student appeared a male who seemed pretty stiff in the situations.

The distribution in this drawing colored papers is from number one to fifteen. It was divided, and from number one to ten. The papers were given to first-year students and the remaining five it were givrn to second-year students. For the remaining fifteen, it was split into five papers for second-year and ten papers for third-year.

So, it wouldn't be surprising for a first-year student to face a third year.

This method seemed unfairly heavy for tge the first year, but in the first place, the academy has no great expectations from the first year, for they still have much time to learn in the academy in years forward.

"He will lose".

"Mm".

"Yeah".

"Eh~?".

Hina, Xiao Lian, Serafina, and Lucy each commented on the upcoming match.

As the two contestants stepped into the Arena, The crowd behind them cheered to give them assurance.

Teacher Lee gave both of them some pointers, and the two of them prepared their stances. The third-year female students were wizards, for she took out her wand, and the male took out his wooden spear.

"Start!".

When they heard Teacher Lee's instruction, the male students rushed forward, but the female calmly dealt with him using her wind element. Using the momentum from the male student, the female created a path or whirlwind that trapped the boy as his body was dragged toward the outside Arena.

"Out of the Arena, the match is over".

Teacher Lee shouted his instructions, which made the third-year students clap for the female performance.

Pleased by what was being showered on her, the female turned to the spectators and waved her hands, acting cute to cheer up their spirits.

"Show-off!".

"Mm".

"Wind, huh. That will be interesting!".

"Haa, You guys!".

As usual, Hina's cold tone, Xiao Lian's indifferent tone, and Serafina's menacing aura made Lucy, who had to deal with them, sigh in resignation.

The Arena had been cleared out, and after waiting for a while, a male student from a third-year division came out. A red-haired male student walked into the Arena with his chin lifted high and a smug grin on his face. His steps were slow and deliberate as if he owned the place. He scanned his surroundings, his eyes filled with confidence, almost daring anyone to challenge him.

Every move he made screamed arrogance.

Then, the male eyes caught a silver-haired beauty that sitting elegantly on the desolated seat from his left part. His lips soon parted, and he placed his two fingers on his lips, giving a gesture kiss to the girl.

Xiao Lian, who was on his radar, felt her whole body trembling with goosebumps. She didn't remember the boy, and out of knowhere, he acted like that.

Not just her but the others girls bodies trembled in disgust when they saw the boy's gesture. Then, they turned their attention toward Xiao Lian, who was shivering.

"Silver hair, you know him?".

Xiao Lian shook her head intensely, which baffled the other girls. Hina turned to Serafina, who also seemed oblivious to it.

The three of them did not want to open this discussion further and began to delve into the Arena. As they feared the boy was still looking at their place, he started ogling the other members besides Xiao Lian, which made their faces devoid of expressions.

A teacher appears and announces loudly in the room where the first year is waiting.

"Red paper with number five on it stepped forward!".

Soma, who was in his meditation state, slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a white mist that he couldn't get absorbed into his veins. He turned his attention forward and nodded his head in silent understanding.

He broke off his still state and stood up, walked out of the room. As they neared the Arena, Soma saw a familiar face that used to harass Xiao Lian in the past. He felt lucky, for he could have a chance to blast that face of his.

Once Soma stepped outside into the Arena, the whole stadium turned quiet; they felt a sudden tension that shrouded the entire Arena with his coming.

No one in the academy knows Soma's name, as he is the one who defeated the demon who infiltrated the academy alone. Because of that fame, it roused many speculation and theories directed at him.

Some people say that he orchestrated the situation to gain fame, and some are curious just how a first-year has that much strength in him. Some students who came from a high-ranking status or Guild began to create a concrete plan to pull him into their sides.

However, Serafina has shut down all of those people. She, who understood Soma's behavior and actions, realized the situation started to center around Soma. So, Serafina started to move, with her wealth and connections, Serafina managed to make them give up on pursuing Soma.

"You came, brat!".

Jiang Wei, a male student who constantly harassed Xiao Lian with his arrogant tone, scoffed at Soma's figure.

"...".

However, Soma didn't faze at all. He stood in the middle of the Arena, with many pairs of eyes looking at him. They were curious to know what Soma could do.

Soma turned his attention toward his right and saw Hina and the others waving at him in small gestures. Soma replied with a raised palm before turning to the opponent before him.

"You dare to ignore me!".

Jiang Wei's face was red in anger. A vein also popped out from his temple, and his fists were clenched so hard.

Teacher Lee, who realized the situation, scanned the two contestants' preparations.

"You guys ready?".

Soma casually stood there while directing his sharp and calm eyes to his opponent. On the other hand, Jiang Wei was fuming. He took a long wand and started to gather enough mana to be released when the signal had been given.

"Start!".

The moment Teacher Lee spoke and Jiang Wei prepare to act, Soma disappears and reappears in front of Jiang Wei under the watching eyes. His movement is so fast that the other students have a hard time following him.

"?! You?!".

Before Jiang Wei unleashed his spell, Soma thrust his left palm without holding back his power. A 'boom' resonated as it shook the air surrounding them, blowing Jiang Wei's consciousness away. His body got blasted off from the Arena as it flew in a straight line before it slammed into the Arena's wall.
