Transmigrate inside a Web Novel as a Side Character.

Amidst the pulsating heart of the city, a majestic building looms tall, its myriad lights gleaming like beacons against the deep black curtain of the night. The atmosphere is erratic with anticipation as a bustling crowd goes in and out at its grand entrance, each person drawn by the allure of fortune and the thrill of chance.

Two men wearing neat style outfits watched the grandeur that stood before them.

"We are here?".

"Yeah, we are".

Eiji, who is using a necklace Soma had lent him, is now disguised as an androgynous character with short blonde hair, wearing a white tuxedo and fidgeting, for he is getting many attention from women who find him cute.

Soma, on the other hand, stood tall behind Eiji, wearing a black tuxedo, exuding a menacing aura, for he was disguised as a man in his early twenties with white hair and a scar that painted his left eyes.

The place they were visiting tonight was the casino. A place where they could multiply money in such a short amount of time. Of course, that wouldn't be easy considering the casino was already establishing the system that would not let the people who came become billionaires. However, that rule can't work against Eiji, who was born and blessed by luck himself.

"Soma, do you think It will work?".

"It will. Trust me, Victor, you forgot my name already".

"?! Ah, yes, I am sorry, Rent".

The name they came up with was for a cautious purpose. Because they wouldn't know what would happen later. They played the role of a brother. Starting with Soma, who acted as an elder brother, inviting his new little brother to the casino, which Eiji played.

"Good. Now let's enter inside".

Eiji and Soma exchanged their final look before raising their feet, bringing them toward the building. The security in the building was pretty much lax for there are two guard who stood outside. In front of the massive door, the guards only checked people's identity through their ID or any other identification.

However, even though it looks so lax outside. The inside was facilitated with many tiny high-tech camera lenses, that could detect someone who cheated, or used their power in case the visitors are awakeners. The management inside will mark the person who dared to cheat, or some sort. Then, they will be hunted down before disappear without knowing how and why.

"Let me see your ID?".

"Um,".

Eiji, who was being stopped by the tough-looking guard, stiffened his body. But Soma, with a swift hand, took out his awakeners permit that shone in platinum color, glittering in the blistered night. The two guards who saw that bloated their eyes and turned to look at Him.

"I want to teach my little brother some fun. Would you please let us enter?".

Soma softened his expression. But the guard faces were stiffened, for they faced an awakener who held the platinum card. Their forehead started to drenched, and they flusteredly shook their head vertically before opened a path for them to enter.

"Please enter".

"I hope you enjoy your stay".

"Thanks, let's go, Victor".

"Yes, big brother".

As the two of them enter the room. A red carpet spread below their feet, stretched far away, showing the way to the building inside. The atmosphere inside offered them a grandiose welcome with the touch of a jazz music. The crowds who filled the entire venue were split into two categories, those with the laughter and those who shed tears.

Many tables were occupied with games such as poker, blackjack, roulette, slots and many more. Soma had never played with one of those. He tend to look away from this kind of place in his former world.

So, this was the first time for Soma, in his two lives to visit the casino. Eiji was no better. His eyes scanned his surroundings with an opened jaw, witnessing the unfamiliar place which was filled with entertainment.

A single employee, a woman wearing a sexy bunny suit that shows their firm thighs, which were coated with fishnet. The woman glanced in their direction and gave a wink that made Eiji's face flushed. As for Soma, he set his Puppeteer skill and managed to control his emotions well, showing his calm expression.

"Wow, that was...".

"Come here, Victor"

"Ah, wait for me".

Soma saw the counter for exchanging their gold currency into a chip in the left corner. So he moved his feet approaching the place. The counter only left a small rectangle hole that fit a single adult male body width. Also, the man's face was hidden behind a wall.

"How many do you want to exchange?".

"...One million".

The man saw glittering gold bars shoved into the counter without any disturbance in his expression. The man took the gold, then started to take the correspondence chip the casino had to offer. In Soma's hands, there were ten tiny red discs.

"Done, let's go, Victor".

"...Yes".

With a chip in hand. Soma began to scan his surroundings, looking for a certain machine or table that played based on luck. After searching for a while, they found a roulette table filled with many people who enjoyed the game.

As the wheel on the table began to spin. The crowd who gathered at the table muted. They slowed their breath, holding the excitement that would soon burst apart upon the white ball that will showed their fate. Whether it was a win or lose.

"That's black two, congratulations".

"Everyone, thank you".

"...Crap".

"Tch".

Soma, who saw the scene unfolding. Using his agility he slipped away between the gap and settled himself between the crowd. He leaned himself to the table along with Eiji, who seemed flustered. Because the person beside him was a mature woman, who wore a sexy dress revealing her bare back and thighs.

"I am sorry".

"Fufu, what a cutie".

Eiji's face flushed further. He slips away and stands beside Soma, leaning his body closely. All of the crowd's gaze starts to gather around them. But Soma showed his undeterred will and loosened his expression so everyone knew he was here to play.

"This looks fun. Let me play the game too. Victor, here, take it!".

"...Okay, Big bro".

Eiji raises his head. Then, taking the chip in Soma's hands. He scans his surroundings only to flinch in place and stiffen for the gaze he receives, making his hair stand to no end.

"Do you also want to play?".

The staff who responsible in here ask Eiji who seemed nervous.

"Yes, please".

"Looks like we got a newcomer".

"Hey kid, are you a first-timer?".

"Don't go crying later, okay".

With Eiji's appearance and stature, no wonder the people treat him like that. Soma stepped forward and showed his smile, cast his gaze at the people around before opening his mouth.

"Since this was my little brother's first game, why don't you guys raise the bet a bit? We will also put everything in line for the first bet".

One of the people who held the most chips on the table, raised his eyebrows. He is a robust man in his early forties, wearing a suit with a dandy appearance, casting his curious gaze at Soma and Eiji.

"So, he was your little brother".

"Yes, I invite him here. To show him what it is actually like in a casino and to have fun".

"Hehe, I see. Master starts the game".

"I will, sir. Please pick up on your numbers".

The staff who was called master was a male in his early thirties. He wears a uniform which consisted of a white shirt, red vest and long red pants. He put his palm on the wheel before spins the wheel that it left an afterimage.

"Now, kid, pick your number!".

The man turned to look at Eiji. Eiji gulped his saliva to moisten his throat, which parched for the atmosphere that almost buried him. As he tried to take one of the chips in his possession. He recalled a conversation with Soma earlier before coming here. He turned his head to his side and saw Soma nod his head, believing in the luck that he had carried since birth.

Eiji put all the chips in his hands on top of the number black thirteen for his heart was telling him to do that. The other participants started to place their bets on their respective numbers. Many of them also knitted their brows for the rash decision Eiji had made in his first bet, raising all his chips.

"Okay then, I will choose…".

The dandy man took a quarter of his chip and put it on the red nineteen.

"Let's see, who will come victorious".

The master, who saw the wheel still spin, began to roll out the white ball, and it spun opposite to the wheel. The stirring sound of the wheel and the white ball that spun stirred everyone's curiosity and heart, making the atmosphere turn still.

After a while, the wheel slowed down, as did the white ball. The white ball stumbled upon the rows of numbers, and after, the ball's momentum stopped. It rested its round tiny body on the number.

"... Black thirteen. This was your first win and bet, congratulation".

"To think you had a beginner's luck with you…?".

The dandy man expressed his amazement, accepting his loss. As for the other people in the place, they feel disappointed for the number they choose not getting picked by the ball. They expressed their amazement and bitterness by glancing at Eiji, who stood dumbfounded, not responding to their calling.

"...?".

"...Victor".

Soma watched what happened. He puts his palm on Eiji's right shoulder. Eiji's body twitched, and turned his gaze sideways.

"Eh? what? who?".

Before Eiji let his tongue slip further than this. Soma gripped his shoulder tightly, making Eiji's face grimace and sobered up. Eiji turned to his surroundings and to the roulette at the white ball that stopped on top of the number black thirteen.

"Victor, You won".

"...I …won…".

"Yeah, congrats, little bro".

"I won?".

"Congrats kid".

"Tch, lucky fellow".

"Next time, you will feel what despair is…".

As the other participant congratulates him or even curses him. The master gathered the chip on the table bet and slid it to Eiji's side. Eiji looked at the enormous chips that he had right now, eyes glued to it before his face turned into an elated one.

"Yes, I won".

Eiji's fist pumped into the air as he felt liberated for the winning he got for the first time. Soma also feels his shoulder lightened, for he is still unsure about Eiji's luck stats. At first, Soma has a slight doubt that they will win on the first try. However, it seems the thing will likely be a bit enjoyable and messy.

"Kid, let's play again. I am sure you won't flee after getting that much money on your first try".

Soma, who heard the man, lifted his lips and opened his mouth.

"Sure, Victor. Play as much as you want".

"Okay, thank you, big brother".

"Then, let's start the next round".

Everyone in the place tensed their expression after the table master announced their next game. The wheel spun in a fast manner, and every participant started putting their bet on the line. As for the dandy man. He put it behind the other, followed by Eiji in last.

The wheel slows down before it stops at the number.

"...Congratulations…".
