Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 18

He snatched the flyer off the wall and quickly read through it. As soon as he did, he noticed the flyer was actually for a job in the same convenience store. He felt this was a good opportunity, and the store was also very close to where he lived, making it easier for him to work.
With the flyer in his hand, he went back into the store and towards the guy behind the counter. He kept the flyer on the counter and asked, "Does this store still need a job?" not trying to sound desperate.
The worker was very slow as looked at the flyer for a few seconds and just as Joon-won was going to ask again, he lifted his head and replied, "Yes, we are still in need of workers. Do you want to work here?" making Joon-won nod.
"Alright then. Let me get the manager for you, so you can speak with him. Stand here for a few seconds." and went towards the other end of the store. Joon-won remained silent as he took a better look at the store. If he was lucky, this might be his working place for a while.
After a while, the room to the back opened and the same guy came out, and this time he had a middle-aged man walking behind him. The middle-aged man looked normal, with neatly combed hair and casual clothes.
"Boss, this is the guy who wanted to join after seeing our flyer, outdoor." pointing at him as they came near. The Boss only slightly nodded and continued to scan him.
"So, you want to work here?" he asked straightforwardly when they were close enough.
Joon-won nodded, and he continued, "Alright, then how many days can you come in for work?"

Joon-won didn't want to answer this recklessly and thought for a second before replying, "I can come on weekdays and it depends on whether or not I am free on the weekend." Because the summer was around the corner and he would need to go for auditions.
"That's good enough. Can you come from tomorrow?"
Joon-won wanted to deny as he thought about the exam this weekend for a second, but quickly remembered his bank balance and nodded.
"That's good. Finally, we have someone to fill that idiot's spot for a while. I hope you don't leave very quickly, at least until we find a permanent worker. Tell me more about yourself." He lost his calm face and laughed a little, changing the atmosphere. He looked like a completely different person. Even the guy had a small smile on his stoic face.
"Ah, being serious is very hard. So tell me more about yourself." He patted Joon-won's shoulder.
"My name is Kim Joon-won, I'm a first-year student at Arios University. I'm studying to become an actor." Giving a brief introduction about himself.
"Ah, you study at Arios University that too, for acting, you're pretty good. My name is Gim Da, the owner of this convenience store, and this is Seonu Hwan, he is a high school kid who works here at night." He introduced both of them.
"So did I get the job?" Joon-won asked, puzzled how easy it was to get the job at the place. He was only asked a few questions and most of it wasn't even to be discussed before getting a job. He started to think this was all a joke.
"Yeah, don't be too puzzled. The boss believes in his intuition and guts rather than any person's background." Seonu Hwan answered.

"Well, alright some with me and we can talk about your salary for the work." Gim Da waved his hand and turned around towards the end door. Seonu Hwan stayed behind to look after the store while Joon-won followed him behind. There was a small corridor after the door and the boss's room was at the end while other rooms like storage or the worker's changing rooms were before that.
Both of them talked for a while before coming to a conclusion on Joon-won's pay. He would be paid on a weekly basis and would get a bonus if he worked even on Weekends. He only had to work for 5 hours and that was from morning 8 until 1. This worked for Joon-won, and after talking with Gim Da for a while he learned more about the man.
Both came back into the store and Gim Da said to Seonu Hwan, "Seonu, show him the locker rooms and give him 2 pairs of the uniform depending on his size. I'll look over the store until then."
Seonu Hwan led Joon-won back into the corridor, and this time they stopped in front of the first door. He opened the door and Joon-won saw a simple room with 4 lockers on both sides with a bench in the middle to sit on.
"This is the male locker room, the female's is right next to this one. We don't have many workers working in this store. With you included, we have 4 male and 3 female. There is a minimum of two people working on every shift, but today my partner had work to do."
He explained and then said as he pointed at the locker to the right end, "You can use that one. Wait a minute, I'll get you your uniform and keys so that you can keep them inside it." Leaving Joon-won alone.
Joon-won simply sat on the bench and waited for him to come back with the stuff. Seonu quickly came back and gave him the keys and 2 pairs of uniforms. Joon-won simply kept the uniform inside the locker and both of them got out.
He told both of them goodbye and walked out of the store.

Reinventing the Struggle
The (sort of) original working title for this was "Reincarnated into a neo-feudal world of mecha knights, I will reinvent the panzerkampfwagen and mess up the social political order!" or something along those lines. And honestly that's a good enough synopsis given the nature of isekai titles. This story is unapologetic trash but at least it's the least cringe stuff I have written so far, so here it goes.

The virtual world was meant to simulate a fantasy world of Viking or Roman lore. But not all with this virtual world was fine; nor were the humans who were selected for its maiden and only voyage.
