Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.

Without any time to waste, Soma launched himself like a missile, again using the same technique to kick the golem in the chest.

However, things were a bit different from earlier. A chime of Gong echoed inside the room, bouncing across the wall. It also shook Soma's ear, numbing her hearing and leg.

Soma saw the Titan move in swift attack, launching its palm to slap him. He hurriedly kicked the body and leaped back, and the Titan stood still without any damage.

"I thought I could break it, it's hard. So it's really immune to a physical attack, then. Just like in the book".

The guardian Titan body was covered in pure Mithril, the metal that was so rare that a country was willing to wage war to obtain it. It was the hardest and lightest metal that was obtained inside the dungeon only. But with its hardness that goes beyond any steel that exists on the planet, it was hard to be destroyed or shaped.

This kind of metal is also a good conductor for Magic to flow, but it also has a high resistance to Magic. Soma was racking his brain to find a solution to defeat it.

Even with the help of the devil's power, it didn't make a dent or even crack, and it retained its integrity.

The Titan began to move, true to its name. His movement was agile, like some kind of Mecha anime. It swung its twin sword, which it hid behind its back. The swing was filled with precision as if the Titan had been trained in swordsmanship.

Soma keeps dodging every slash that comes his way. He is still racking his brain of what he should do to deal with the problem before him. He scanned his surroundings, trying to find a clue.

"...What is that?".

While dodging the incoming slashes, Soma distanced himself from the Titan as he stood in the middle of the room, floating. The Titan didn't give chase. He observed Soma's movement and properly protected what lay behind him. Soma could see a door that was once hidden from his sight by that humongous figure.

"I see. So you are guarding that, huh. You sure are so true to your name as a guardian".

As he found some door that he assumed was a goal, Soma began to charge his power in his feet and planned to ignite it in one go.

The two parties just stand on their own turf without making any move, which is good for Soma, who still needs time to prepare his attack. The golem's purple eyes keep its gaze straight at Soma, who seems to be gathering Mana around his body, concentrating it all on his feet.

Tension rose on the battlefield as Soma closed his eyes and regulated his breath, ready for the final act.

"I think it was enough".

Soma opened his eyes, which shone crimson. He began to take his running stance in the air, which looked ridiculous. He inhaled a deep breath, and with a thundering roar, his body rushed forward like a comet.

The Titan, who knew Soma was coming to the door, positioned itself to guard it. Soma changed his approach. He went onto the ground and accelerated. His little body made it easier for him to maneuver and outwit the Titan.

Soma saw the Titan's eyes glow intensified, a sign that it was angry. The Titan raised both hands, still holding the sword in hand, and decided to destroy the terrain. This is what Soma had been waiting for.

[Oni Wrath activated]

[Mana reduced -100 per second]

His body twitched with undulating berserk energy that spread to all his nerves. Soma felt the entire world slow down. The moment the Titan moved its hands downward, Soma launched himself up and, using the Martial Saint technique, kicked the handle of the sword into the Titan's hand.

A Clank echoed in the room, and the Titan was caught off guard. It let go of one of its swords, which was blasted into midair. Soma, who saw that, accelerated further up, reaching the same level as the blade—no, even further.

Within the slow-motion spin, the sword had. Soma calculated the timing of the attack as he waited above it.

"Now! Third Steps - Lightning strike!".

The handle tip of the sword perfectly aligned with Soma's attack. The sword launched in a straight line like a meteorite. Of course, Soma also didn't stop as he is now. He began accelerating in midair, following the sword's trajectory behind while he kicked against the blade several times, accelerating it further.

A flash of silver swords and crimson bolts that followed behind it became a spectacle of divine judgment from the sky as it struck the Titan, who was also dumbfounded by the spectacles.

The sword pierced through the Titan's head, cleaving its body into two parts as it dropped to each side. From inside it, Soma could see a purple Mana core beating up like a heart trying to regenerate the destroyed body, but Soma was faster and with a single stomp from his landing that carried much momentum. The mana core shattered, and the collision gouged the surrounding floor.

[You gained Exp!]

[Congratulations, you cleared the trial]

[Opening the Tombs of Ancient One!]

"What! Who is that?".

The tightly shut door trembled. With a grumbling voice coming from its opening, a yellow light permeated the inside of the room. The Titan below him began to shine in silver light before it changed into two things: a mana core from the Rank-S monster and a huge chunk of Mithril Metal.

Soma, who saw that smile pleasantly, stored them both inside his relic and went toward the opened door.

"What was inside it?".

With a gaze full of hope, Soma took his first step inside and witnessed something that made him turn to stone.

"W-what is…".

In front of him spread a sea of gold that scattered across the floor. Once he got closer, he could see jewelry buried under the gold.

Soma, with a gleeful expression on his face, extended his left hand and sucked all of the gold in his view without leaving anything left.

After the gold was cleared, Soma managed to see the interior of the place. It was a cylinder, and in the middle of it stood a luxurious altar that had been buried by the gold.

"No it was not an altar".

When Soma got a closer look, he saw that it was not an altar but a huge casket. It lay comfortably in the middle of the room, painted black and decorated with golden lining. Soma felt hesitant to open it, but he swallowed his pit and apologized to the person who slept inside it.

"One, two, three".

With a guilty feeling, he opened the casket and saw skeletons that looked still well-maintained. Its Bones still retain their freshness, glittering with the reflection of the light. On the skeleton, neck and wrists have accessories with emerald gems embedded in them. There is also another item buried along the skeleton.

"What should I do?".

*****

In the tranquil space on the fourth floor near the stairs toward the fifth, Serafina and the girls were talking about their school matters. It's been almost an hour waiting for Soma, but there is no sign of him returning.

"I have been curious. Hina, how long have you known Soma?".

"Eh?".

Serafina's question caught Hina off guard until she retorted with a weird comment.

"Mm, I want to know too, Tell me!".

"...".

Xiao Lian also got hooked by the question, and Lucy only smiled wryly in return.

Hina, who has eyes all over her, scratches her cheeks as he begins to chuckle, recalling the first time she met Soma.

"It was a boring story but…".

She began to tell the audience who had paid attention to her. At first, their eyes shrank in wonder at how Hina treated Soma as her parents' savior. But everyone who listened gave Hina some appreciation because even though that was rude behavior, she got it. She is still brave enough to reveal it to others without hesitation.

Then, the story escalated as they often met in crowded places, became involved with thievery, and the most impactful of them all was when they got trapped in a Trial Dungeon.

"Wait, Trial Dungeon, have you been there before entering the Academy?".

"Yes, It was appeared in the Subashiri prefecture the route for climbing mount Fuji".

"Heeh, I didn't know that. Violet are you aware of this?".

"Yes, at that time there is a certain article that said a rising star that cleared a trial dungeon in Japan, but to thing that was Miss Hina over here, truly a great accomplishment at such a young age".

"Ahaha, you guys praising me too much. The truth is, I was just a burden in the way and I have been carried by Soma all the way to the final floor, and that Media also just coincidentally snapped my picture, who accidently shouldered Soma who was unconscious after battered in the fight, calling me the one who clear it. Kuuh! Remembering it again makes me want to burn that company".

"Please don't do that".

Lucy retorted from the side. Xiao Lian, who was lost in thought, posed her question.

"How did Soma solve the trial gate? Give me the details!".

"Eh, Well, Soma at that time…".

"What about me?".

Everyone in the group stopped in their talk as a deep voice from the boy they knew well echoed behind them. Simultaneously, they turned their attention to the source and found Soma's body covered in dust approaching their side.

"Soma, welcome back".

"Yeah, I'm back. Then, Hina what about me?".

"Well, it was like this…".
