Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 92
Advertisement
Joon-won was now in the middle of his living room with the script in his hand and his phone leaning against the TV, recording him. He came back home and read through the script once again, went through the points he made earlier about the character, and was ready to try acting the character out.
The most troublesome part of the character was how unstable he becomes after finding out the truth about the person he loved. His emotions go from kind and understanding to dark and revenge. Joon-won was never betrayed by anyone. During the initial years, he had nothing for people to betray him for, and in later years; it was his wife who killed many people trying to cheat him. But he had the power of imagination and could imagine the pain a person would go through after an incident like that.
The entire drama started with a conversation between him and the heroine. Joon-won sat on his couch with one leg on top of the other, with a small smile on his face. He imagined the heroine standing in front of him and said, "You do not need to work. I have enough wealth for us to live happily after our marriage. You should instead take this time to go around shopping for the wedding."
He paused a second because it was a dialogue from the heroine and said, "Alright, I will not stop you if you really want to work. I'll place you in a relatively easy team and you can work there. Is that ok?"
He then turned to the side and said, "Old Man Jian, assign her a suitable position." Old Man Jian was the butler in the story and his number one aid. After that Joon-won stood up and walked towards his phone. The scene was complete and his character didn't have many scenes until the second half of the story which started with him finding out the truth.
He took the phone and stopped it from recording. He sat back on the couch and played his video again. The scene played again and Joon-won closely watched the film to see if he finds any errors. He could notice a few places where he was exaggerating, like at the beginning. His smile and love were too much for a movie. He needed to dial it down a little to make it look more normal.

He nodded to himself and then went to the next scene. He could make the changes once he gets the role. For now, he needed to prepare for the next day. This was a scene with him once again in his office talking to the heroine. This time he was asking her out for a date.
"How are doing these past few days? I am sorry I couldn't spend much time with you. There are various things I need to settle before our marriage."
After a moment of silence he said his next dialogue, "No, no, it shouldn't be like this. You know what, let's go on a date. This Sunday I am free and we can go on a date."
He then frowned and said, "Oh! You are not free? Well, it's alright then. You must have a lot of things on hand. We can plan a date later on then."
That was the end of another scene. He once again checked the recording on his phone, and this time a little more satisfied with his own performance. The expression wasn't that exaggerating as before and it was a bit more calm compared to before.
The next scene was him finding out about the dark truth the heroine was hiding from him. He stood up, had both his hands in his pockets, and started to walk a bit. Joon-won looked up and said, "Taking a day off is nice. The weather is a bit cool and fresh. Being stuffed into that office the whole time is taking its toll on me. I should exercise more."
As he finished that dialogue, he looked to the side and stopped. He took a step back and stared at the imaginary bench with his eyes wide open. He imagined two figures on the bench, cuddling each other.
"Wait, that's not who I think it is. No, no. She told me she was going out with a few friends before our marriage to have a girl's day alone. There is no way she is in the park cuddling with another man like that." and just as he mumbled those lines, his body shook and took a step back as he saw the girl's face. It was his fiance giving a quick kiss to a guy. Joon-won expression was filled with disbelief. It's like he was shocked and didn't want to believe what he saw.

"This is a lie. We both are about to get married. I am sure this is just my imagination. That's right, I should just take some rest. Let's get back home." and walks away.
This time, he didn't stop and check the footage. Instead, he went into the very next scene, which was at his house. He stepped into an imaginary house and looked to the side before saying, "Old Man Jian, you won't believe what I saw just now. I saw her with another man in a park, kissing and cuddling. I must be really tired these days that I'm hallucinating too much. That's right, I am just tired." and walks away.
The scene stops there as he walks out of the stage and Old Man Jian has an entire scene to himself, where he plans to find out what his young master saw and what was really going on. He orders a few people to find out what was really happening and finds out the truth.
The next morning during their breakfast he reveals it to the CEO. Joon-won was now sitting on the couch acting as if he was eating and his spoon suddenly drops.
"What do you mean, Old Man? Are you implying that she has been doing such a hideous thing behind my back when we are about to be married only in a few days?"
He paused as it was Old Man Jian's dialogue, but his emotions changed from expressionless to anger as time passed. He swept his hand across and roared, "So what I saw was true. I was not hallucinating when I saw her in a park with another man. The only person I was willing to trust after everything that happened turned out this way. Old Man Jian, find out. Find out who that guy is and how this whole non-sense has been going on for. I want to know everything."
The scene ended with that. The next scene was on the same day at the end of office working hours.
"So, you are saying this has been going on for quite a few days and I had no idea about it? How could I be so foolish to believe her? To think that I assumed she was the one to fill in the hole. I was such a foolish man. I am going to destroy her. I will destroy everything she has in her life." and Joon-won had a crazy smile on his face as he spits out dialogues. He looked like a cold blood murderer.
As soon as that dialogue was done, he fell on the couch exhausted. From then on, most of the story was told in the form of narration. His next scene was a confrontation with the whole heroine family and the hero, where he reveals everything.
"This is so hard. The emotions are crazy. He turns from a kind and calm guy to a maniac so quickly that I need to get a hang of it. It's one scene after another with these changes so I should ride this wave to get it right."
He stood up and went to the phone. It was playing for a long time and he wanted to check the most emotional scene in the dining room. He fast-forwarded the video a little and played it when he had a spoon in his hand.
His spoon dropped, and he saw his expression, dialogue, and how he was. Everything was fine. He was able to hold back a little, but not enough. He could still feel a bit of hesitation in his dialogues and eyes.
After taking some rest for a few minutes he continued and by the time he finished, it was already 7. He fell on the couch and opened his chatbox to see a message from Jung-hwa. It was about her script. She sent a scanned copy of her script and asked him to check it out.
He sent a simply ok before keeping the phone aside. He decided to check it afterward, he didn't have enough energy to look at another script. After relaxing, he went into the kitchen and cooked up a big meal for himself. He needed to gain some weight and so he was trying to stuff more food after that was time for bed. The next day, he had to wake up earlier than usual for his first gym session.

The Demon of Shadows (Hiatus)
Spartans. Genetically modified supersoldiers who participated in the spartan program, which aimed to reinforce and compensate for the humans capability of emotion in order to create the ideal supersoldier. The program itself resulting in the implantation of a limiter for a certain individual, which acted in limiting that persons emotions. Replacing it with a cold logical based calculative mindscape. The limiter aimed to support the ideal supersoldier in completing the objectives assigned to them. Be it mass slaughter, or assasination. One such man who had volunteered to participate in the program to provide data in return for a large sum of money to save a precious friend, has his life lost in battle after years of service and mindless violence. Death, however, was something he usually gave, not to receive. So when death comes to take his life, he awaits in silence, only to be dumbfounded at what is to happen next. This is the story of Nicholas Gray, the Shadow Demon. Note: Story is based on other LitRPGs found on the site such as Dante's Immortality, Necromancer and Co, etc. and on Halo for the majority of the first chapter and possibly later on down the road, I only borrowed things such as the armour and weapons used in the game itself and all credit goes to them for that kind of stuff. I will also perhaps use it to explain his backstroy to further character progression if I can. The cover photo was also a picture I found on the internet and if you wish for credit or for me to take it down just say so and i'll do it as fast as possible. I also don't have a set schedule, and this is just being used to improve my grammar and just as a hobby, nothing more. I will also appreciate feedback in regards to grammar, style, and story in general as this is the first time I have created a story apart from at school, hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it!
