Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 5

'Hmm, this paper was in my hand when I came to this body. What was this guy reading before he died?' Pulling the paper closer, he finally git a good look at the contents.
"Ah, it's a script. Let's see how it compare to the ones I wrote back then. Hope we don't lose out in this aspect." Feeling interested.
He slowly read the script in his hands. The script Kim Joon-won had wasn't the complete drama script, rather it was only his part of the drama. As he read, the anticipation and smile on his face faded away as a small frown formed on his face.
"No wonder that guy died due to anger. This is really sh*t even the role this guy got is literally only one whole page, not even a whole paper worth of dialogues. Such a small role." He couldn't help but lean back on the couch as he threw the paper to the side and closed his eyes.
He remembered the reason the owner of the body died. It was this script. The role was so small that he didn't have dialogues. He didn't get to know what the entire script was about but had some guess. Based on what his role was, it was situated in a school and was also a romance orientated drama.
"I felt happy about acting once again and this is what I get after coming here." He opened his eyes and sighed.
"Well now that most of the things here are done. Let's explore the outside world and see how advanced everything here is then." He sprung up from the couch as his eyes were filled with anticipation. He wanted to know more about this world and going out was the best way he could do that.

He grabbed the keys to the main door and made his way out. But as he did, he noticed a mask hanging on a hook beside the door. Grabbing it, he wore it and made his way out, locking the door.
There were only 5 similar houses for every floor in the three floors apartment. His house was on the second floor, so Kim Joon-won made his way down the hallway and then the stairs. Reaching the ground floor he walked out and saw the bustling streets.
The streets, people and the vehicles were a lot to take in for him and only snapped out of it after a whole minute. He looked to his left and right before stretching out his finger, he felt the wind blow to the right and decided to go to the right.
As he walked down the street, he saw different kinds of shops, Graffiti painted on walls, people riding on the skateboard and many more. He was so marvelled by everything around him that he didn't want to close his eyes, scared that he might miss something.
If anyone from his old world would see their calm, collected and old king like this they would stab themselves in the heart rather than believe their eyes.
As Kim Joon-won slowly walked through the streets, he suddenly stopped. His eyes were on a billboard which was flashing very brightly with a picture of a couple on it and a title next to it. It was a movie advertisement.
"So, that's a new movie. It seems to have released a few days ago. Let's see what these movies are. If I can remember a movie theatre should be around that corner." He was excited to see something new. He only knew dramas but as he saw that billboard he remembered the experience of seeing movies of the original Kim Joon-won and wanted to try out.

Slowly walking towards the theatre as he remembered, he finally reached it. Standing before the large theatre he felt excitement. This was going to be his first exposure to this world's mainline drama or rather movies as they called them.
He noticed that the theatre was about to play it's noon show of the movie billboard he saw on his way and walked towards the counter.
"One ticket for 'My love', please." With a polite smile to the lady behind the counter, while taking out his purse. Paying the money he got the ticket and made his way inside with excitement.
Going to the respective screen he already noticed that the movie had started and so he quietly made his way to his seat. As he sat he quickly noticed something very strange. Everyone around him or probably everyone in the entire theatre were couples.
But that thought only lasted a minute as his eyes were glued to the screen. He didn't turn his head even for a single second as he continued to watch the movie in isolation. He didn't hear the constant murmuring from the couple's all around him and was fixed to the screen.
The lights got back on after two complete hours. All the couple's and other people around him slowly got up one by one, exiting the screen but he remained there motionless. His eyes were still on the large blank screen in front.
He snapped out when a worker gently shook him, telling him that the movie was already done and it was time for him to go out. Slowly nodding he quietly exited the theatre and stood in the busy streets once again.
Stretching his stiff neck he sat on the nearby bench right in front of the theatre before sliding his eyes, cutting off all the noises from the busy streets, immersed in his own thoughts.
"Movies are really awesome." He murmured with a slight smile, looking at the floating clouds.

A Broken World [Dropped Pending Rewrite]
This work has been dropped- because I am rewriting it. Look forward to the new and improved "A Broken World," now available HERE on Royal Road! Three thousand years ago, Demonic creatures invaded the world. Though their power seemed irresitable, a band of heroes managed to steal the knowledge of summoning rituals and worlds from them and created, "The Millenial Summoning." A powerful magic that would bring forth a being from another world with the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods with him. Teaching prayers and invocations that blessed humanities legions and began to push back the demons, founding of the "The Church of the Spoken Word" rose to power and a stalemate was reached. Two thousand years ago, that stalemate was broken by the second casting of "The Millenial Summoning," and the arrival of "The First Sorceress," who taught humanity the basics of magic and enchanting. With the power of the Sorceress, the mages, and the priests the tide turned and the Demonic hordes began to be shoved back, signaling hopes of a golden age for mankind. One thousand years ago, the hopes of final victory and a new dawn for mankind were dashed by traitors who slew the participants of the ritual and took their places, using the ritual to bring forth a godlike being from the demons home world, "The Demon King," for no human knew his name, erased millenia of growth reducing humanity to barely a fragment of its former glory. Now the ritual is being cast again, and a new being is being summoned... In our world, after nearly two decades of studious work, Luke Jaeger is making his dream come true.

Despite the challange of getting his business running, Lucas feels that his work has finally paid off. Lucas's car never left the banks lot, nor was Lucas ever seen again in our world.
