Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.-Chapter 394 Full Power.
After hearing the familiar yet nostalgic voice ring in her ears, Hina's body lost its power. She leaned toward the backseat while sighing in relief. She pinched her nose bridge to hold back the urge to cry, making the other two question her action.
{Hina, can you hear me? Or is it someone else?}
"...It's me, wait a minute".
Hina released her phone and began to change it into speaker mode, releasing Soma's voice for everyone to hear.
{Uh, Okay, what happened are you alright?}
"Soma!?".
"Mm, Soma?".
Serafina jerked from her seat and walked closer to Hina's side. As for Xiao Lian, she slides her chair near Hina so that she can hear Soma's voice better.
{Eh, the other is with you too?}
"Yeah, they are".
Hina promptly sighed, releasing the burden that had been weighing down on her ever since Soma had been confined. Even though she managed to keep her tough act and try to distract it by training even after hearing the truth.
However, a small prick of thorn kept piercing her heart slightly, boring a hole that managed to keep it leaking with anxiety and worry about his well-being.
Then now, after hearing his voice, Hina could finally release the burden, but that also didn't take quite a while for her worry to resurface again as the roar of an angered beast spilled from the phone in her hand.
The three of them, face stiffened before contorted in a nightmarish frown.
"Soma, where are you now?".
Before the two made a ruckus, Hina stopped them by raising her other hand and opening her mouth. Her heart thumped as the roar in the background kept ringing, waiting for the premonition to pass.
{...Sorry, I'm in the raid place with your parents right now}
Hina clenched the phone, leaving an unpleasant crack on the screen. The other two also bit their lips in frustration, for they understood the meaning of those words.
Again, Soma had thrown himself into something dangerous that they didn't know of, and they could only wait in worry for his coming safe. Even if they had undergone harsh training for these past few days, nothing would matter in front of the might of an ancient dragon.
The three knew well that Soma probably just wanted to inform his well-being from this call, but deep down inside, they feared something worse, as if this was his last parting words with them, and that's what made them burdened with grief.
They sat on their chair, gazing down, wallowing in sadness. Then, their bodies shook upon hearing an angered beast roar that shook even the mood around them.
{Tch, can't have even a calm conversation here, that damn oversized lizard}
Soma threw some light jokes, trying to ease the mood where he currently is, but for the girls, it only further poured oil into a fire.
{Hina, Lian'er, Sera, I need your help!}
Light began to fill their listless eyes after they heard the unexpected words coming from behind the phone. Hina knit her brows in wonder, thinking that maybe she was too saddened to finally hear Soma asking for help.
"Soma?". Hina asked with a blank expression on her face.
{What?}
"What did you just say?".
{Huh? I need your help, the three of you and also them}
"Them? What do you mean, Soma?". Sera butted in, for she was also having no clue as to what was happening within Soma's head.
{Listen, I will convey my message. Listen well…}
Hina quickly pressed the record button on the phone and answered Soma with a strong nod.
"Okay, we are ready!".
{First, gather your force, including Leon Party and Lin Fan, and also bring someone who excels in stealth operations if you can. Then come to this battlefield; you guys might be overwhelmed by the scale of the battle, but I won't ask you to come with us. I need you guys to do something else, and that is…} The three girls gulped their nervousness as Soma halted the last part. {...I want you guys to do Demon Hunting. Remember! The key to this is Leon's existence!}
Hina and the two felt a bit disheartened upon hearing that the core of this plan was none other than Leon and not them. However, they also know too well that their current power is still lacking in comparison.
"Okay, we will do that".
{I know you guys might be disappointed for not becoming my choice, but our opponent is nothing to scoop off. The only way to defeat it is through their worst opposite force. The Savior power!}
"Understood, is that all?".
{Yeah, girls, let's meet again!}
"Yeah, we will soon depart".
With that, the call ended, and Hina put away her unnecessary thoughts and leaned back to stretch. Her closed eyes opened, showing a firm determination for someone her age. Hina stared at the ceiling for a brief moment, letting her thoughts linger before turning to the other two.
"You guys ready?".
"I already asked Violet to come to our aid!". Serafina put away her phone and stared at Hina with a resolute expression on her face.
"Mm, always, let's go!". Xiao Lian's eyes were clear, like a river in the frozen winter. It seemed calm, but hidden inside was a ferocious current that could swallow everything that dared to interrupt its flow.
'Good!'.

Hina picked up her phone and began dialing Lucy, whose contact information was saved on her phone. She placed the phone near her ear and heard it make several beeps before the other side picked it up.
{Hello, Hina. What is the matter?}
"Senior Lucy, I need some help from your side!".
{!?}

"Okay, that is good enough. Mother, here is your phone!".
Soma gave the phone away while Hisako contemplated what she should do in this situation. All the awakeners from the Japan camp gathered around Soma except their leader, who was still battling in the front lines, trying to bring down the dragon leg.
Hiroshi calmly observed the situation; seeing the crowd of awakeners under the dragon's feet, it was expected that he would choose to stay in place. With that crowd, like an ant, Hiroshi would find it hard to unleash his strongest strike.
"Are you done with the phone?".
"Yes, thank you. I already told them everything I want to say. so…".
Soma turned his back on the group. He raised his gauntlet only to see a blackish stain around his right knuckle. He poured his lightning energy and let his crimson mana consume the miasma. 'This is a bit troubling! But, if using the same source, then...'
*"Roar!".
The dragon's roar, accompanied by a clinking sound of the chain, made everyone in the place halt, including Soma. He glanced at the source and found that the dragon had managed to pull a stretch of the chain.
Soma also noticed that the chain that wrapped around the dragon's limbs was tainted in black miasma. Thanks to his raw power of lightning, it didn't spread all the way to the circle.
"Continue your attack!".
A shout came, and every attacker began to join forces once again to try to make the dragon collapse. But, because of its hard scales and miasma surrounding its body, it is a bit difficult for a vanguard to attack.
As the attack resumed, Soma noticed the chain hiding behind the dragon on the other side, away from his eyes. He slightly felt his connection with it becoming weaker. He felt a tremendous chill running through his spine and turned his head behind.
"All of you evacuate".
An unpleasant 'crack' resonated across the field, but it didn't halt the vanguards' assault. A moment later, the crack became more prominent, and the vanguards began to realize what had happened.
The chain wrapped around the dragon's left hand cracked and eventually shattered into a million pieces of broken glass. As soon as the dragon regained freedom, it roared and rose its battle aura to the roof, forcing the vanguard to retreat.
"Retreat!".
When everyone heard the commando retreat, Soma alone rushed forward. He clenched both hands, and then his whole body was surrounded by crimson lightning that danced around the battlefield.

With two great powers fused inside his body, Soma, clad in a crimson sphere, ran past every eye that caught him advancing. He jumped high and faced the dragon face-to-face. Many awakeners are horrified at how reckless Soma's doing is.
The miasma that surrounded the dragon's body was so lethal that it could melt even Epic-grade equipment with just its aura. But, now, a boy nonetheless dares to plunge straight into the mud hell, risking his own life; what sort of madness that is.
However, to everyone's surprise, when the boy arrived before the dragon's face, it thrust its fist and clashed with the dragon's jaw, blasting it away.
Soma checked his own condition, having just bathed through the miasma, and found nothing serious had happened for now. 'Let's go at it, full power!'
