Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.

Soma shook his head to the side and managed to come back from his long thought, but once he tried to approach, he realized that Xiao Lian was petrified; she was stiffened as if still affected by something.

"Ah, I\'m sorry".

With a wave from the woman\'s hand, Xiao Lian\'s body jolted, and her legs lost their strength. But Soma hurriedly caught her in his embrace before she dropped to the floor.

He turned his attention toward the woman and glared fiercely, making the woman who inhaled its pipe smile wryly and look apologetic about what she had done.

"I am truly sorry, please bring her here and let her rest".

The woman hurriedly took a chair from behind the counter and put it in front of her. Soma, who was still cautious, wanted to open his mouth, but he felt his clothes were clutched by Xiao Lian, who was breathing heavily.

"I\'m fine".

A rough breath escaped her lips, pale-looking face, and drenched sweat. Her words and condition were contradicting.

"?!".

Before Soma had a chance to speak, a shadow loomed over them, and it jolted his body in wary. He turned to his front and found the woman was already standing in front of him, looking at them both.

She crouched in front of him, making Soma almost take a step back, but the woman\'s face was filled with remorse, which made him halt for a moment. The woman extended her hand and cast a light glow that seeped toward Xiao Lian\'s body.

Her pale face turned rosy, and her condition got better.

Soma knit his brows for what had happened before him. The magic woman used was none other than light magic, but earlier, she exuded a powerful charm that could petrify someone by hearing her voice. He began to wonder, "Who is she?". Soma muttered.

Xiao Lian tensed the muscles in her body and stood up, startling Soma. She turned her gaze sideways, which made the woman smile faintly.

"You seemed okay".

"Mm, thank you".

"No need, it was half my fault you become like that".

Soma stood up from his place and gazed toward the woman. She was beautiful but also mysterious at the same time. It\'s rare to find a woman who has a natural charm that could affect someone just by her voice, but is that natural or not?

He began to dismiss the thought and focus on his purpose in visiting this place. Soma glancing to the sides, his eyes caught a conspicuous parchment and book in the corner of the selves.

Different from what he had seen from the other parchment, it still retained its color, and the book was rather thin compared to the other.

"Did something pique your interest?".

The alluring voice from the woman made Soma turn his gaze at her. She was showing her genuine smile and looked at him gently. But he is still cautious about her, so he keeps activating his extra-skill puppeteer to its max and opens his mouth.

"Yeah, I am, can I look around for a bit?".

"Of course".

"Thanks, Xiao Lian, are you okay?".

"Mm, I\'m already fine".

"Don\'t force yourself if you are still tired and sit on that chair for now".

Soma began to detach himself from Xiao Lian and summoned his monocle. The woman, momentarily stunned to see Soma, took out something from out of nowhere. She also didn\'t detect any fluctuation from some sort of accessories that are usually worn by an awakener who keeps their item inside the storage.

However, Soma had none of that; she couldn\'t detect where it came from and where he stored it. Suddenly, she gasped and realized that she was rather rude toward her customer for trying to pry his information.

With a gentle smile, the woman guided Xiao Lian and let her sit on the chairs. She had prepared. Both of them began to entertain each other and soon opened their hearts. Xiao Lian, who usually had an instinct-like perception when grasping someone else\'s nature, felt nothing ominous from the woman before her.

However, somehow, she could detect a faint smell that she recognized she had sniffed, but she had forgotten where it was.

On the other hand, Soma grabbed the thin book and parchment that caught his attention. However, upon closer look, it was written with unknown text. He knitted his brows and turned toward his monocle. He soon opened his eyes wide, shocked.

[Universe Breathing Technique]

"This is…".

The book was something he never expected. It was a breathing technique to increase one\'s own constitution in the martial path. That will increase the user\'s external and internal power as Soma recalls his knowledge regarding the story.

Soma knew that Chronicles Saga\'s power system had two distinctive paths; it was a system that the world had bestowed upon a person, and this method was developed by humans ever since ancient times.

However, from both of those and different from the one that is shown in Wuxia novel, the breathing techniques were rather inferior, for it could only increase the user\'s mana by absorbing the natural mana in the atmosphere and filtering it into their body.

From that, they will gain a slight increase in their mana capacity along with their physique, but it was in just a small number that will show in their status, except Lin Fan, who managed to cultivate both paths and become a Villain that stood on equal footing with the demon Lord at a fast pace.

Soma began to rack his brain using his puppeteer skill, searching his memory regarding the novel. Lin Fan\'s breathing technique was never mentioned in the novel, which is why he pondered. "Is it Lin Fan\'s own creation, or, luckily, did he find some miracle in his path to becoming stronger?".

But because of that, Soma began to wonder if he should take the book and try to delve deeper into it or if he could just resort to something he owned. He already had a special status that Martial Saint created, but somehow, his feelings tilted toward the book.

"Excuse me how much for this book?".

The woman who was chatting happily with Xiao Lian turned her head to Soma and knitted her brows. Soma flinched back, but soon, the woman opened her mouth.

"Customer, are you sure about that book?".

"Is there any problem?".

The woman shook her head to the side before hesitantly exposing the book\'s secret.

"No one had even understood that book\'s content, not even I am".

"Wat do you mean, I can just see its name fine using this appraisal item".

"Yes, I also already found out about its book name but once you see the inside it was like, the text was getting blurred and the text was jumbled randomly it confuses me".

Soma began to open the inside, and using his monocle, he opened his eyes. It was exactly as the woman said. The text was sometimes blurred, or it was jumbled randomly; it made his head dizzy.

He shut the book and inhaled deeply to calm his stirred mind and heart. Internally, he is rather happy, for this was probably something else if it had that effect. Soma felt that the thing in his hand was worth more than it looked.

"How much for the prices?".

"Customer?".

"Soma?!".
