Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.

Upon closer look, this movement set was probably not the one Martial Saint wrote, but it was written by his disciple, for the notes say that he deeply respected the figure of a Martial Saint who acted as his master and also parent.

Soma quickly switched his mind, stored the movement set away, and read the breathing technique.

[Extra Skill Puppeteer activated]

Once he opened the first page, Soma discarded every thought and solely focused his entire being on the book. He relentlessly pushed his brain to memorize the content of the book in its tiny details.

He kept flipping page after page, and eventually, once the blazing sky that shone its light upon the land had subsided, Soma closed the book in his hand and exhaled.

He rubbed his forehead with gentle strength while recalling the book\'s contents.

"Okay, the first thing is".

Soma glanced at his surroundings and found he was the only one in the place. He sat down on the ground, keeping his posture straight and his feet crossed in a lotus position.

At the beginning of the training, he must reach a state of calmness and let his consciousness be free, not bound by any unnecessary thought and be present.

Using his extra skills, Soma could reach that state easily; next, he began to do slow and deep breathing, trying to synchronize with the surrounding natural energy.

As he inhaled the air, a cold and warm sensation flowed through his nostrils and into his lungs, but he still couldn\'t feel anything special. He repeated the same act several times before opening his eyes.

"Fuu, still not feeling anything".

Soma exhaled the breath he took in and stood up, feeling a bit disappointed with the training he had. However, he hurriedly shook his head to switch his negative mind and think positively about the future.

He began submerging in his thoughts and recalled the technique he had practised earlier.

Form-wise, he felt nothing wrong with it; his breathing almost replicated the method in the book, but there was still something lacking, Something fundamental that he had missed as someone had trained these techniques for the first time.

That is the help of external factors. In the book mentioned earlier, someone can break through the shell in their first wall of training with this breathing technique. One of them is the help from the master itself, injecting the source of raw power into Soma.

Secondly, using condensed pure energy extracted from natural ingredients that have been concocted or filtered into something edible by the human mouth to consume.

This is proving to be a challenge for Soma, who still couldn\'t grasp what the method he must use is.

"Should I eat some pill, like in the cultivation novel. But where do I get it? This world heavily leans toward the system…".

While deep in thought, Soma walked toward the academy\'s deserted field as he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"Pills?!".

Soma stood silently for a few seconds as he realized he had something in his reservoir. He started to summon a wooden box he found inside that ruin. With him, Hina and Xiao Lian met a Dragon fossil that still retained its majesty, and he merged with the relics.

The soft and slight weight that lingered in his hand was not the same as his trembling heart, which was wildly dancing in anticipation upon the pills that were contained inside.

Slowly, he opened the box and found three vials with different pills contained inside.

"That\'s right".

Even though he had hope in the pills, Soma couldn\'t just swallow it recklessly. He took out his phone from his pocket and started to dial Serafina.

The phone started beeping twice before the other side responded with a flustered voice.

{Soma, what is the matter?}

"Where are you right now?".

{Me, still in the council office}

"Okay, I will be there shortly".

{Eh? What do you mean?}

Soma, swiping the phone display, ended their conversation. As he found his new destination, he stored back the wooden box and walked away.

Slowly, under the black sky and glittering dot of stars, he moved his feet and trespassed the narrow passage in the academy on his way through the west side. He intentionally walked at a slow pace to enjoy the tranquil feeling of this quiet night while delving into his own thoughts.

Not long after he started to walk, he found the building still shining despite the class being over and the academy being long past its activity time.

Soma pressed the bell on the building, alarming the person inside. With thudding steps from the other side, the door slammed open, and Serafina, with bated breath, saw Soma, who was baffled by her appearance.

"Soma, welcome".

Serafina dived into Soma\'s chest and buried her head comfortably, inhaling his scent, which soothed her mind. Looking at her stressed side, Soma casually patted her head, and the hug got tighter; he felt thankful for having such a strong physique.

"Have you eaten yet?".

"Just some snack from Hina".

"Hina is here?".

"Hm, yeah, I told them to go back, but they insist on staying to help us. What a good girl they are."

"I see".

If that was the case, his initial plan to ask Serafina to lend her Appraisal item was a bit jumbled. He covered his mouth, lost in thought, before speaking.

"Serafina, does the building have a kitchen for me to use?".

Serafina detached her head to gaze toward Soma\'s face from below and spoke.

"Yeah, why?".

"Let me borrow it for a bit!".

****

After finishing his duty of cooking meals for everyone in the student council, Soma, who got what he wanted, returned to his dorm. With a click, he locked the door to his room and began to lose his uniform.

Without any patience to wait, Soma sat still on the empty lot beside his bedroom. He began to take the wooden box and the monocle.

His mind filled with anticipation, he opened the box and placed the monocle to his right eye. The first thing he looked toward was the yellow pills.

[Golden Refinement Pill(Legend): A powerful pill created by some skilled alchemist extracting a legendary rare herb, turning it into a pill for humans to consume. Effect of consumption is helping to break through the person\'s cultivation(First Jade Star only), strengthen the person\'s constitution by a leap, and improve the person\'s strength significantly in an instant]

"Yes! That\'s what I\'m talking about!".

Soma shot up standing while doing a guts pose, for he was receiving a huge Jackpot in his training. He returned to his sitting and sighed in relief, for what he did to increase his Luck state was clearly his advantage in this world.

"Let\'s start training right away!".
