Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 26
Advertisement
The next day morning was simple like always. Eum Kyung didn't forget to bring a copy of his book so that Joon-won could have a look at it. Joon-won asked the guy to give him a week's time to read and give him feedback. Eum Kyung nodded and was anticipating the feedback. He was in what people call writer's block and needed to get out of it.
After Eum Kyung left, Gah Soo entered and joined him in the shift. Joon-won read the book he got when he had free time in the shift and found out why it was only a mediocre book. The book did not have anything unique. It was a very plain story. He read only a couple of pages out of the 300 pages book and could guess what the ending might be. Such predictable works, whether it was in a book, movie, or any other form would be boring.
He had no time to read the whole book and closed it before he walked out of the store and headed towards the university. He sent a text to Jung-hwa and asked if his part was near and she immediately replied back saying it was. He sped up and reached the class earlier.
As he entered the class, he heard Roh Ji's voice, "Oh, you are finally here Mr.Superstar. Did you want the complete practice to pause just because you are late? If you do not want to act, then give up your role to someone else." directed towards him.
He looked at her straight in the eye with his usual dead-pan face and said, "Am I not hear now? Or do you want to waste more time screaming at people?"
Hearing his words Roh Ji who was raging immediately stopped and as she registered the words Joon-won said, her anger hit the roof. As she was about to blow up again, Hyeong Myung, who had the same fake smile on his face, stopped her.

"Roh Ji, why are you blowing up again? Isn't the man here now? We only completed the previous part just now." as he said that, Roh Ji's expression turned 180 degrees as she shyly nodded while peeking at his hand on her shoulder.
She didn't forget to send a glare towards Joon-won before turning around and ordering others. Joon-won walked up to his seat and saw Jung-hwa looking at her, mouth wide open. Tapping her lower jaw, he said, "Do you want to have a few flies for lunch?"
She turned around to see him already sitting with the script in his hand and asked, "You went up against Roh Ji? Why did you do that? You usually just apologize to anyone from that group, even if it wasn't your mistake."
"I just spoke the truth. Don't get too hung up on it. Did you act well today?" questioned her back to change the subject.
She nodded and told him about the practice and that she was adjusting properly. After a while, another member of the production crew came up and asked Joon-won to go down for practice. It was his first scene where most of it was the narration.
Jung-hwa wished him luck, even though she knew he probably wouldn't be needing it. Joon-won walked down to the center as Roh Ji was giving out unnecessary orders to everyone again.
"Oh you came. Go and do your part with that tiny role you got." She sneered at him and turned around. Joon-won started to think the girl was crazy. What she just said wasn't even a proper insult. He shook his head and walked towards his spot.
The scene started with both the leads walking away happily laughing while holding hands as Joon-won looked at them from behind while clenching his teeth and hands.

With slight anger in his voice and face, he hissed, "Wait, what are they doing together. Happily talking, holding hands, it's like they are on a date. Why him, he is nothing. Just because he is famous?"
Looking at the two people, the others in the room were a bit surprised by Joon-won's acting as he continued, "Should I go and strip those two apart? Should I beat that guy up? No, not here and not like this. This is a betrayal. She showed hope and snatched it away. Ah! I can do that instead." ending it with a smile.
His face turned deadpan after the dialogue, as he didn't have any more in that scene. He walked away as Roh Ji interrupted him, "Where are you going? You should come to me and wait for my review of that horrible thing you call acting."
Joon-won's patience was thinning as he listened to her irritating voice. Even his decades of practice to build up patience was now wearing out. He simply looked over his shoulder and said, "Why should I care whether you approve of it or not. The ones who should judge me are the evaluators at the end of this week. Don't be on your high horse cause the higher you are, the harder you fall." And walked back to his seat.
Roh Ji's face was not completely red. No one spoke to her in such an arrogant manner in the class. She wanted to rip Joon-won to shreds, and if her stare could kill people, he would have died multiple times over. She felt his words are a complete slap to her face.
"Don't bother too much about a nobody. It will hurt your image if you easily get caught up in these situations. Just leave him, he probably won't pass." Hyeong Myung cooled her down once again, but as he stared at Joon-won's back there was a strange glint in his eyes.
Joon-won couldn't care less about an idiotic girl and a hypocrite man's thoughts. He got tired of the idiot's words and talked back. He didn't want to fight with someone who isn't even a quarter of his age but she was just too unbearable in the end.

The Ruins of Magincia
They say all things end in time, but the exalted City of Magi would’ve begged to differ. Yet when an attempted coup goes wrong, the city finds itself brought to the very brink of destruction. In the wake of the calamity that left no survivors, the autonomous infrastructure still operating the ruined city seeks to restore what was lost. Luckily for it, the Mana-devoid Universe it awoke in holds an unexpected surprise: a planet full of sentient life forms. All capable—with a little help—to become the next generation of Magi. Back on Earth, Millie McArthur is a pregnant out-of-work mechanic struggling with the prospect of moving back in with her parents after leaving her unfaithful fiancé. That is until she finds herself just one of the hundreds that have been shanghaied by the callous artificial constructs still manning the ruins of Magincia. Now, she must struggle to learn magic, compete for resources, get good 'grades,' and fulfill the seemingly arbitrary requirements for her future job in this broken city. All while keeping herself, and her son, alive. Is the miracle of magic really enough to make up for all the pain? The Ruins of Magincia is a dark fantasy that's heavy on the drama (LitRPG aspects are very light). Chapter lengths can be anywhere from 7k-12k and there's no current release schedule as I'm focusing on wrapping up volume one.
