Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.

The luck that Eiji had seemed could be controlled at his will, if he already received enough luck, whether it\'s good or bad. For example, at the roulette table earlier, after winning for twenty streaks, Eiji hopes that in the next game, he will lose, and the result is. He is experiencing a loss, which makes the other participants breathe a sigh of relief.

The dandy man was already turned his back, running from the table, same with the other participants. They have been replaced by a new challenger drawn to the unnatural result that happens in succession.

"Hello, mister. This is my chip".

Eiji, holding four baskets filled with many chips, stood in front of the counter. While the counter man, his eyes open wide and jaw slacked to the ground. The chips that Eiji brought seem unnatural to get in this place. He knitted his brows and then sprung up from his seat.

"Please wait a moment".

The man began to disappear from the counter and started to discuss the event that unfolded in the building via phone. Eiji, who had a black face, wondered why the man retreated to the back with a pale face.

"What happened?".

"You don\'t need to concern yourself".

"...Okay".

Soma heightened his vigilance, ready to summon his gauntlets anytime if things started to get dicey. Many onlookers glance at their place for the amount of chips they had. But Soma ignored those gazes of curiosity and only focused his senses on the malicious gaze directed at him, especially Eiji.

For preparation. Soma distributes his remaining Extra Points to his soul stats. Currently, he has nine hundred and ten stats in his Soul Point. It will give him an additional one-second time in using the Oni Erath and Martial saint technique to flee the place.

[Soul stats raised +10]

[SP: 910]

"I am sorry for the wait. May I check your ID?".

Eiji, upon the mentioning of ID, stiffened his body. Like a creakened machine, he turned his face back and met Soma, who had already taken out his platinum card. As Soma approached, the man bloated his eyes, looking at the card in Soma\'s hand.

"Here".

"...Ah, yes. Please wait a minute".

The man started to inspect the card after knowing that it was real. His face stiffened as cold sweat began to appear on his forehead. With his trembling fingertips, he gives the card back to Soma.

"Your ID is real, and I already verificate it. Would you like to exchange your chip?".

"Yes, please. This was all My brother. He painstakingly earned it himself".

"..Yes, sure he is".

Soma noticed that the man\'s cheeks twitched slightly for the mention of painstakingly. Earlier, when the man retreated to the back, he was trying to call his superior to verify that the two men before him were not cheating. Then, he found out that the camera team didn\'t find a single clue about the cheating they had and no sign of power usage.

Even though the people who worked here know how valuable the platinum card is. No matter how strong the awakeners are. There is no way that the camera in the facilities can\'t detect the cheating case.

"Here you go".

Eiji, with an elated expression, put the basket on the counter. The man realised that it did not fit for the basket to enter. The man expanded the rectangle hole in the counter using some kind of mechanism. It makes it more lengthy so the basket can fit in.

After everything was behind the counter. The man started to count the total amount of chips the brother had. Every time he counted, his face gradually turned white as a sheet. The man sitting languidly on the chair smiles as he has given up on living. He resigned his life, which will be over after this case leaked to the boss.

"Um, sir?".

Eiji\'s chirping voice woke him from his languid state, and he took a piece of paper. They have been presented with a cheque, for the casino currently doesn\'t have that much gold in their hands. The man wrote the amount of gold they had. Then he retreated once more to the back.

"He went back again?".

"Be patient, Victor".

"Okay".

After waiting for a minute, the man came back with a signed cheque and a business smile on his face.

"... Here is the total amount you have. Currently, the gold is in our bank. You can withdraw it if you show this cheque to the receptionist there".

"I see, thank you. Sir".

"My pleasure. Be sure to come again to this place".

"If time wills it. Let\'s go, Victor!".

"Yes".

Soma urged Eiji to leave the place and to walk beside him. Soma senses a multiple presence that keeps his actions in check. While walking leisurely, pretend not to notice the gaze.

They strolled, as usual, carefully to not arouse the pursuer. As they leave the building, the gaze that Soma feels keeps tailing him from a certain distance. Soma kept his gaze straight while Eiji beside him was elated seeing the piece of paper in his hands.

After making sure that they were far away from the casino. On the crowded street, Soma pays attention to his surroundings, calculating his chance to escape. Soma leaned closer to Eiji, who kept his eyes on the cheque with ten-digit numbers on it.

"Listen, Eiji, don\'t react, don\'t do anything, just walk like you always do and open your ears".

"...Okay".

"Currently, we are being tailed by multiple people".

Eiji\'s eyes opened wide, hearing Soma\'s words. Unconsciously, Eiji tried to turn his head back but flinched as he felt a sharp gaze beside him. He inhaled a deep breath and exhaled it several times. Eiji extended the paper to Soma, which Soma kept inside his storage ring.

The street at night was crowded with people who had done with their business, whether it was work or play at night, in between the row of buildings that spread as the eyes could see. It showed the dark side of the city. Soma turned his way and entered the alleyway along with Eiji with a pale face behind.

"Eiji, come here!".

Soma pitted the gauntlets he had. He circled his hand to Eiji\'s waist, lifting his body. Then, he activated his skill along the technique.

[Oni wrath activated]

[Remaining time 9 seconds]

[Martial Saint technique - three Steps of Heavenly Lightning Tribulations]

"First steps - Lightning scatter".

A menacing red aura starts to envelop Soma\'s body. It alarmed Eiji, who was being carried by Soma. Eiji turns to look at Soma, who still retains his clarity despite the violent aura he exudes.

Bolts of crimson lightning start to accumulate on Soma\'s feet. His languid black hair slightly stood up for the electricity around his body that activated.

"Clenched your teeth, Eiji!".

"...Okay".

Soma put strength in his feet and ran from the place, leaving a trace of unnatural mana steps, leaving the pursuer behind.

The people who tailed them were alarmed. As they saw the two enter a dark alley. They hasten their pace and enter the dark alley. The alley had two junctions ahead, and both of them were showing a dead end.

"Tch, where is he going?".

"He is an awakener".

"...".

One of the people who tailed them is an awakener. He could faintly feel a trace of ominous mana that had been used in the place. The trace was faint, but he could track it just fine. He follows its track to the wall in the left building.

The man\'s body starts to glow faintly as he begins to enhance his body. He jumps toward the building, following the mana trace. After he manages to land on the roof, the trace of mana becomes disoriented by the night breeze that carries it away, and the distance between the traces is weird.

"...I must report it to my lady".
